No Weasley is our King storyline in OOTP
Bad news for those who are looking forward to a good grudge match in the Order of the Phoenix film next summer! We've been informed that there is no storyline in the movie surrounding Ron's Quidditch hardships, nor has there been any filming on broomsticks done by Rupert. We're led to believe that this means there will be no Quidditch in the fifth film at all. We hope to learn more soon!

WHAT! That is INSANE. That is RIDICULOUS!
2nd???? whoo.. I CANT BELIEVE THAT!! i was looking forward to that! i wanted to know what the tune to weasley is our king is!!!! come on i love quidditch! -jenny
that's not cool
top 5?? NO QUIDDITCH??? Well, I suppose they had to give up something, but come on people... really...
I was looking forward to someting like that. Drats, that sucks. I wonder what else they're going to cut now. I just hope it's not when Fred and George leave.
that's not cool.
wait, that means no ron/hermione kiss! NOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
WHAT?!?!?!?!?!? WHY????
That's disappointing. I'd like to see more subplots included, it was a shame that S.P.E.W. was lost in "Goblet of Fire." I wouldn't doubt that "Goblet of Fire" was the last time we'll ever see Quidditch included in the movies.
its sad but understandable. ootp is almost 900 pages! theres no way they could fit all the subplots into the movie! oh well, as long as they have the voldemort/dumbledore showdown and the scene where dumbledore jinxes all teh aurors and umbridge and fudge and flees!
NOOOOOOOOOOOO WHY???
Ah man, I liked Ron playing quidditch.
How are they going to get Harry in detention if there's no Quidditch?
Oh that's annoying... I really like that storyline... hopefully there's at least some Quidditch because that's sort of important to the story, isn't it? Or at least it's a gigantic factor in Harry hating Umbridge even more and part of the coolness of Fred & Georges departure... maybe they just haven't gotten around to filming the Quidditch scenes yet.... LET'S BE HOPEFUL EVERYON!!! (top 10?)
Not cool at all!!! Poor Rupert and Ron, they're treated like their storylines mean nothing!!!
Well, they DID tell us that there wouldn't be any more Quidditch in the movies, ergo, no kings or queens of any kind when it comes to Quidditch ... I just hope they have Fred and George's escape flight. Sure I'm a little dissapointed that they're not doing Quidditch anymore but I'm just hoping that they'll make up for it in another area somewhere.
ugh ugh ugh no fair!!! ootp is the best book and they are butchering the film! they are so not catering to hp fans! they should just make it ten hours long i wouldnt complain!
How could they. HOW DARE THEY!!! That is one of the best lines. I mean, it shows predujice... isn't that how Harry gets kicked off the team! Ooooh... come on, Warner Bros!!!
man, thats like a big part of harry's school year but they probably just cut quidditch because umbridge bans it from him anyway.
NUH UHH!!!!! THEY CANNOT OMIT THAT! How will they segway into the Grap plot (provided there is one, anyway!) and how will they explain to Ron why Harry and Ginny went into the forest when Ron didn't do anything that would've made him unable to go now that they've omitted the Quidditch plotline?!?! THIS IS MADNESS!!!!
Whaaaat? you know what I say? I say we start hate mailing! yeaaaah! ihy wb. ihyihyihy. D:
In the words of HPequalslove: PPPPOOOOOOOPPYYYYY
I'm going to stay in my happy world and pray this is some sick joke of Warner Brothers.
WAT? I loved that part in the book! and I totally agree with ilvdr! and quidditch plays a pretty big part in the 5th book, doesnt it? OOOHHHH this makes me mad!
Awww, that's dissapointing. I'm sure the movie will still be fantastic but I was looking forward to seeing Rupert on a broom. :[
thats ridicualous! thats the part i was most looking forward to!
OH MY GOD!!!!!!!!!!!! That's like cancelling the Superbowl! (for those of us who actually CARE about the superbowl, which I don't). It's simply just not done! That was one of the most humorous parts of OOTP! GRRRRRRRRR.
NOOO! I wanted to see Ron flying AND beating Cho! They were 2 of my favorite parts of the book!
Well, that sucks. I'm really surprised but I guess OOTP was a really large book. There didn't seem to be enough plot to leave out Quidditch though but I guess there must be. Sigh. I'm beginning to worry about this being a good movie again.
ARRRGGGHH! Screw the movies . . . >:( I hate 'em. That's like, the best part!!! (Well, not really, but i Lurve ron!)
ARRRGGGHH! Screw the movies . . . >:( I hate 'em. That's like, the best part!!! (Well, not really, but i Lurve ron!)
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO *breath* NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO NOOOO NOOO NOOOOOOO! WHY OH WHY?!
omg thats so messed up, this movie is gonna suck
Bloody 'ell !!!!
:( thats my favorite part of the story and i agree with everyone i would've loved to see rupert on a broom ughh now i have to find something else to look forward too
that is so stupid!!! I can understand why they cut it out, but I STILL don't know the tune to "weasley is our king". GRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR!!!!! I love quidditch. You'll be hearing from me, WB!
I wonder if M knight would have included quidditch.... I don't really care, I won't miss it....I would like to have heard the song at least once though
It's pretty obvious that the filmmakers have rather more important things to put in the film than a Quidditch match. It's already in the books, for God's sake. Why do you guys need the film to copy every single aspect of the novels when all you have to do is READ them?
aww... that sucks! i want some quidditch considering book 6 is the last we will see of it! and weasley is our king song is like.... well one of rons best story lines! this better be wrong!
*Le sigh* I would be annoyed, but the films have aways been a let down, so as this is of no surprise I have no way of becoming properly annoyed by it. But I suppose it is a very non-essential plotline for a film. It's just a pity when they miss out the essential plotlines too...
that sucks!....this sooooooooooo not cool...what so ever! :0!
I was looking forward to seeing Ron manuever a broom. I hope they DO NOT cut out Fred and George's "swamp scene" at the end!! How do you contact Warner Bros.?
Dammit to Hell! dont tell me that the 3rd movie is the last damn movie to have some quidditch!!!!!!!!!
That is true. I don't know why we're acting as if the movies have always been stellar and we're now surprised when they do stuff like this. They've been pulling this crap for years. This is actually the usual order of business and they know we'll still pay our money to go watch so it's not a big deal to please the fans.
Well, that sucks quite royally. I am pretty TO-ed. I was highly anticipating hearing the song Weasley Is Our King and seeing Rupert on a broomstick. Let's hope that this doesn't become much bigger in the seventh book, even though I doubt it will. ... I need some chocolate.
I guess something had to get cut to make room for this idiot directors "Thames Broomstick Chase" scene.
BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!! Curse that dumb dirtor and writer!!!! They are slowly movie by movie ruining HP!!!!!! I want Steve cloves! I want chris colmbus!! I agree with bringon22!!!!They are going to pay for this!!!
But of course, now I think about it, this has probably only been cut to add some random thing they've made up that's apparantly funny/entertaining/makes it better. Whatever. Like those animal sweet things in GoF. Like the dragon chase around the castle. Bleh. I can cope with cuts, as long as they don't add something made up. And there isn't a chance in hell of that happening. Because that would make the films good for fans of the books. And what the hell is with this page? It's really irritating to have it so long, I'm sure that really long 'No' was so unecessary.
NOOOOOO!!!! I was looking forward to that. Oh well. I'll live. Even though my favorite scenes continue to be cut out.
NO!!! They can't DO THAT! It's not Harry Potter without Quidditch! Am I right?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!
