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!

ahhh, that's just dissapointing!!! I hate finding out what they cut out because I love every part of the book and I can't stand things being left out.....but this time it's even worse because Quidditch is one of the few things Harry is still able to enjoy in OoTP (until Umbridge throws him off the team ofcourse) and getting rid of that is just unfair to poor Harry


Posted by razzamatazza Aug 27th 2006

Outrageous! They should have cut out the ministry scene to include Ron on a broomstick since Ron/Rupert is sooooo hot! Then I could squee like a fangirl and annoy everyone else in the theater at that part. And who cares about the whole Voldemort thing? Or they should just put every single detail of the book into the movie and make it 7 or so hours long! Sure it would take millions more to film and only die-hard fans would go to see it and they would loose so much money, but I would get to see every single subplot of the book! And you know what, they really should consult ME on casting and wardrobe, because I don't like every person they cast or think they are all hot. Oh, and EMMA WATSON SUCKS (I'm just saying that because I'm jealous or her and wish I got the part). ... ... ... Yeah... Get over it, people. There is ALWAYS going to be something to complain about when books are made into movies. If you don't like the movies don't see them and sit at home reading all the books. At least the movies have the same basic stories, unlike some book-to-movies I've seen.

Posted by wandaXmaximoff Aug 27th 2006

That sucks big time! Ok, so the Quidditch isn't too important but in OotP it leads into other stuff too - like the Ron/Hermione kiss. Stupid Waner Bros.


Posted by Alissa__islove Aug 27th 2006

I hate Warner Bros.


Posted by Ron_Rocks Aug 27th 2006

that sucks...they always leave out the good bits


Posted by laetri Aug 27th 2006

This does not make me happy, they had better change it and change it fast or they will have hell to pay.


Posted by mollywobbles23 Aug 27th 2006

I was looking forward to seeing Rupert in a Quidditch uniform. Darn it. I say at the midnight showing all true HP fans sing the Gryffindor version of "Weasley is Our King" at the end of the movie! LOL


Posted by mrslongbottom24 Aug 27th 2006

they cannot do this to the fifth movie!! one of the main parts of the book is about ron and his problems! they can't just leave that out!! and if there isn't any quidditch, well that's just absurd!!!!!!


Posted by kash_yap Aug 27th 2006

NOOOOOO!!!! I was really looking forward to that !!! It's not Harry Potter without Quidditch !!! I don't like the director any more :(


Posted by coolydotnet Aug 27th 2006

i read one comment that jk rowling does NOT like writing the quidditch scenes did anyone hear or read that jk rowling say that?


Posted by dumbledores_bredrin Aug 27th 2006

this is crazy, how can they cut such a big part out?! its always the good bits they leave out :(


Posted by marrianna Aug 27th 2006

No! That is one of the best parts of the book!


Posted by itsharrypotter Aug 27th 2006

What's a harry potter movie without quidditch?


Posted by Gyffindor_Lioness Aug 27th 2006

Nooo!!!!!!!!!!! This cannot be! Mugglenet, who gave you this information?!? Has WB confirmed this? What if the "Weasley is Our King" part turns out to be an important plot point in the 7th book? What will they do then? I cannot imagine that Jo Rowling will be pleased with this. This cannot be happening....


Posted by Kristen59 Aug 27th 2006

NO!! that sucks! Weasley is Our KinG!! They better not cut the Twins and their final pranks at hogwarts and their goodbye. haha. This sucks. No quidditch. bleh.


Posted by sscobster2 Aug 27th 2006

That really makes me mad!! I was really looking forward to the "Weasley is our King" storyline. Let's start a petition to make Warner Bros. add it into the movie.


Posted by HPFrEak13143 Aug 27th 2006

they have to have quiddetch and GoF wont b the last time we see it. its NEEDED big time in HBP.


Posted by Gyffindor_Lioness Aug 27th 2006

They had better not cut the twins departure and pranks from Hogwarts!


Posted by Rupert_Roxs09 Aug 27th 2006

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO! That is so not cool at all! That is like a major story line through out the book! They cant just not put it in there thats crazy talk!!!! GAH!!!!! If they dont put it in there I'll...I'll...still go see the movie but be angry!!!!!!!


Posted by tovarbaker Aug 27th 2006

while it's a great part of the book, it takes away, way to much from the flow of the rest of the, much more important part of the story... and don't forget that the hardest part of writing the books for Jo are the Quidditch scenes, just for that same reason, it slows the story and takes away from furthering the plot. so I say not that big of a loss


Posted by mugglemel Aug 27th 2006

Dude, that is soo not cool. What is the 5th movie without Quidditch and the "Weasley is Our King" plot line?


Posted by iluvharry1017 Aug 27th 2006

NOOOOO!!! Oh my god! This freakin sucks! Ron playing Quidditch and Weasley is Our King is something I have looked forward to seeing since OOTP came out in 2003. This is not good at all. I am NOT HAPPY about this!


Posted by polkadots_7 Aug 27th 2006

That sucks. I really liked that part and was looking forward to it.... thanks a lot WB.


Posted by iluvharry1017 Aug 27th 2006

This really sucks and I now hate Warner Bros. and whoever was involved in this descion.


Posted by quidditch_girl93 Aug 27th 2006

I've suddenly lost interest on seeing it onpening day at midnight......


Posted by JennSingsWeaslyIsMyKing Aug 27th 2006

CRAP!!! AND LOOK AT MY SN!! Man I hate this!! Who agree's?


Posted by LilyEvans Aug 27th 2006

I bet Rupert was pissed when he read through the script.. he was looking forward to doing quidditch scenes. I'M mad about it! ARGH. "Weasley is our King" was one my favorite parts of the book. How sad. But yeah.. I guess it is understandable :(


Posted by Lord_Thingy Aug 27th 2006

I don't believe it! They take out Quidditch today in the fifth movie, They'll take out Harry in the sixth.


Posted by Gotpotter269 Aug 27th 2006

THAT SUCKS!!!!!!!!!!


Posted by JennSingsWeaslyIsMyKing Aug 27th 2006

BOOOOOOOOOO!!! Poor Rupert :'(!! I luv him!


Posted by Rhibok Aug 27th 2006

This really sucks! What if they don't put Fred and George's escape from Umbridge in the end? AHHHHHHH!!!! They have to! That's my absolute favorite part of Order!


Posted by benmanu Aug 27th 2006

no quidditch in OOTP? foolish. what about the suspension of harry and the weasley twins because of the fight? and the escape of the twins with their brooms with which they have no more right to use that is the consequences of the suspension after the quidditch match? a big part of the scenario is out of sense if they cut quidditch. no quidditch. what will be the next thing that we won't see? sirius? the battle in london?


Posted by flojo020 Aug 27th 2006

OH MY FREAKING GOD!!!!!!!!!!! Please somebody tell me that this is some kind of a sick joke!!!!!! Quidditch is like one of the main backbones of Order of the Phoenix, I will not allow Davd Yates and Michael Goldenberg to butcher a potentially amazing film!!!!!!!! It's a damn shame that we the fans don't even have a freaking say in the matter!!!!!!!!!


Posted by minervasspell Aug 27th 2006

BBBBBOOOOOOOO. Whatever!!! Lte's just add some broomstick chase doesn't exist. Why add what's really in the story. All I wanted was to hear was the chanting of "Weasley is our king."


Posted by George_weasley Aug 27th 2006

WHAT!!!!!! NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO! They're crazy! That's like half they book..... it's my favorite part..... it's, well... the epitome of Harry Potter!!!!!! How can they do this??? Can they not show Ron looking good like he's supposed to? In doing this, they'lll take out most of the comedy too. They'll remove the Twins entire PURPOSe (besides being hot.)!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! NOT FAIR! ='( =^ ( )

Posted by pcahater09 Aug 27th 2006

That Suuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuccccccccccccccccccccccccccckkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkksssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssss!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I ove that part!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


Posted by harryordraco Aug 27th 2006

UGH, that's CRAP! I HATE hollywood! I wish they would have made these movies as close to the books as possible without having to go all freaking hollywood! These books are not boring at ALL, and don't need to be "spiced" up to the hollywood standard to make it entertaining! If there is NO Ron playing quidditch, then they are leaving out a very big point in the story of Hermione liking Ron, because she helps Ron get on the team. And what about in HBP when Harry gives Ron the fake felix potion so he can think he does good in the quidditch game...ugh I wish directors would actually read the books so they can see how their cuts are affecting future storylines!


Posted by Peevsie Aug 27th 2006

WHAT?! No Quidiitch?! They need to put the Quidiitch in, it is part of Hogwarts!


Posted by nohara_megami Aug 27th 2006

Boo!! I was looking forward to this! AND NO QUIDDIITCH?! That is so wrong!


Posted by gummybearlily Aug 27th 2006

Yea less Ron/Hermione scenes :D Yea I'm a Harmony shipper and proud :P NOTE this is the same director that is notimated for BEST DIRECTOR of the emma's tonigh LOL I bet alot of fans are made about that after today LOLOLOL


Posted by half_blood_princess101 Aug 27th 2006
