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!

That is a load of bull.


Posted by wishingstar22 Aug 27th 2006

This is sick, twisted and just plain wrong!


Posted by BethanyGranger Aug 27th 2006

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!! What is Harry Potter without Quidditch?!


Posted by Quidditchrules00 Aug 27th 2006

I am still really angry at this. Quidditch is one of the most important subplots. They just can't take OOTP quidditch away, because it ruins HBP Quidditch. What about Hermione confunding Mclaggen eh?


Posted by gummybearlily Aug 27th 2006

:D less Ron/hermione moments :D Is it just me or are the movie directors trying to make the movies Hermione/Harry?


Posted by domp Aug 27th 2006

WTF?????


Posted by Quidditchrules00 Aug 27th 2006

":D less Ron/hermione moments :D Is it just me or are the movie directors trying to make the movies Hermione/Harry?" I've noticed that too. READ THE BOOKS YOU DUMB DIRECTORS!


Posted by Miliii Aug 27th 2006

That sucks! First of all: NO RON/HERMIONE KISS? :( that's terrible, that would have been so cute. And secondly, people who always underestimate Ron will just keep on underestimating him.


Posted by polish Aug 27th 2006

is emmy not emma gummybearlily, and i can't believe they still bringing on the H/Hr thing. anyway, i totally agree with harryordraco about the R/H. i SO wanted to see the kiss but, maybe we won't see rupert on a broom, but we'll see the kiss, and just Ron getting ready to play, and then hermione and harry will go with hagrid and then when they cme back they'll see Ron and the singing.


Posted by rupertsfuturewife Aug 27th 2006

Is it just me, or do they seem to cut out everything with Ron/Rupert in it. It's not because I love Rupert, but it seems like they center around Hermione, and that doesn't do justice to the books...


Posted by gummybearlily Aug 27th 2006

maybe we won't see rupert on a broom, but we'll see the kiss, and just Ron getting ready to play, and then hermione and harry will go with hagrid and then when they cme back they'll see Ron and the singing. that's a good idea but I don't want to see the kiss HARMONY SHIPPER 4 EVER


Posted by Quidditchrules00 Aug 27th 2006

"that's a good idea but I don't want to see the kiss HARMONY SHIPPER 4 EVER" You're still shipping H/H after reading HBP? Harry and Hermione "From Emerson and Melissa's interview with JK Rowling on July 17th, 2005: ES: Harry/Hermione shippers - delusional! JKR: Well no, I'm not going to - Emerson, I am not going to say they're delusional! They are still valued members of my readership! I am not going to use the word delusional. I am, however, going to say — now I am trusting both of you to do the spoiler thing when you write this up. I will say, that yes, I personally feel - well it's going to be clear once people have read Book 6. I mean, that’s it. It’s done, isn’t it? We know. Yes, we do now know that it's Ron and Hermione. I do feel that I have dropped heavy hints."

my god...this topic got so much feedback...yeah i agree its not fair at all! but seriously theyll put some random parts we DONT need...on a completely unrelated note, i cant wait for todays mugglecast! : )


Posted by Quidditchrules00 Aug 27th 2006

I have to say that I whole-heartedly agree with Emerson about H/H shippers. Delusional! Esspecially after HBP.


Posted by Znuese Aug 27th 2006

There goes all of Ron's character development. Again. If they manage to fit the R/Hr kiss in another bit of the movie, it wont be quite so bad. Anyway, if they're not total idiots, they wont cut the twin's exit - because that scene is pure awesome.


Posted by rn362 Aug 27th 2006

I WANT MUGGLECAST! GAAAAAARRRRRRRRRRR!!!!! OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!! BBAAAAAAAAALLLLLLLLAAAAAA!!!!!!!!!!!!


Posted by Quidditchrules00 Aug 27th 2006

Posted by drumline13 Aug 27th 2006

Posted by polish Aug 27th 2006

i agree with Quidditchrules00, i didn't want to say the delusional thing, because they knooooow is H/R. pity. read HBP please.


Posted by gummybearlily Aug 27th 2006

I WANT MUGGLECAST!!!!!! And yea I am delusional and I don't care, My parents are separented because they fought for my whole childhood, anyone that says fighting means that they love each other should take a look in my childhood.

Posted by polish Aug 27th 2006

Quidditchrules00 if you want to i can explain you the mugglecast thing, or not. mugglecast is like, the best thing of the week {ok, something like that haha} gummybearlily guy isn't mature enough, i believe. i wouldn't be telling everyone my life, specially when they don't care. my parets are divorced, i've lived in two countries, in one, two years, in the other two years, and so on, until finally im here, and i have to wait until i finish school so i can come back to my country and indeed WHO CARES! so please stop telling those kind of stuff

Posted by Aravail Aug 27th 2006

I'm dying for Mugglecast too. Hopefully it comes soon. HOwever, I am also disappointed that we will not hear "Weasley is our King" or, from what it sounds like, see Quidditch tryouts and Harry as captain. Of course, there's still a chance that some of this will be included, but it won't be the same. =[


Posted by grlivinlife Aug 27th 2006

are yu kidding me? thats crazii!! how are harry and hermione supposed to find out about grawp? how is harry gonna get banned from quidditch? ughhhhh


Posted by amandeep_sagoo Aug 27th 2006

so what is the tune to 'Weasley is Our King', i wanted to kno, well they cant fit all the sub plots, wait a minute, no quidditch, NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!


Posted by katari_sibiri Aug 27th 2006

WHHAAAT!! O.O no weasley is our king? ..........well THAT'S just peachy!


Posted by Aravail Aug 27th 2006

Maybe we could have our own tunes. Like, the Hogwarts song... sort of. I know I developed my own tune when I read "Weasley is our King." It's really sing-songy. :P


Posted by dracodragon Aug 27th 2006

i'm really mad that there will be no quidditch. i can't believe it!


Posted by buffyfan_5 Aug 27th 2006

These stupid film makers!! What's the point in leaving all of these sub-plots out? So it won't be too long? For true fans there's no such thing as too long! And if it's the money they should just get more! They know it'll get a major haul at the box office anyway!


Posted by TheFifthMarauder Aug 27th 2006

WB ARE GOING DOWN!!!


Posted by pensieveuser07 Aug 27th 2006

How bout this... they could just make the movies longer! If LOTR can get by with three hours, why can't J.K.'s wonderful masterpieces?


Posted by muggleboy_luvr_4life Aug 27th 2006

WHAT?!?!?!?!?!?! THAT'S HORRIBLE!! They probably cut it out for some stupid extra thing!! We all remember Mr. Shurken Head from the night bus right?? Please, not another one of those!! I was REALLY looking forward to seeing Rupert on a broom! Wonder what else has been cut out.... :(


Posted by DADARULES Aug 27th 2006

this is stupid there should be quiddith that's the best part!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! they can't add 5 mins


Posted by laughingeyes927 Aug 27th 2006

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I was totally looking forward to being able to sing to "Weasley is Our King"!!!! Plus, the quidditch scenes are always so fun. I can't believe this. :'( :'( :'( I wish we could change their minds somehow. Who cares how long the movie would end up being? The longer, the better, lol.


Posted by quidditchplayer Aug 27th 2006

Come on, what are some of you talking about? you have not even seen the movie and you are talking like you know everything about it. These movies have many R/Hr moments, you have to be blind to don't see it. And we already know they have included more of those moments in this movie. Emma talked about the scenes they have filmed where Hermione and Ron are practising spells together in the DA meetings, and we know they have included the story about the prefects, and how they are without Harry in the train for example. So you are just bashers, who want to criticize, you are biased. Just because they are not including one of the hundreds of scenes in the books doesn't mean they are not including other scenes, or they won't include it in other way. They can not include everything. But that doesn't mean they are not including some scenes very important for those characters, in fact, we already know they have included some of them, but some of you seem to be very bad informed, or you want to forget about it on purpose, to be able to criticize. And they didn't included SPEW in GoF, and a lot of people complained when they told us, but when we show they movie we didn't even remember it, because it was good without that story line. No-one remembers it now, and it didn't do anything wrong to Hermione character in the movie, it was ok, nobody remembers it today. And the same will happen with this, some of you are exaggerating now, but you will forget when you watch the movie and you realize there couldn't include this, but they have included other important scenes for these characters, so it's not important they don't include this one especifically, they can not include all the scenes of all the characters. they include some of them. We know they have included very good scenes for all of them. And there is movie 6 too, where they can play quidditch again. Think about all this before bashing and talking like 5 year old kids...


Posted by xoxlizzxox Aug 27th 2006

HAHA The movie Quidditch sucks anyway, and I never really cared that much for the Weasley Is Our King stuff. It's funny in the book, but 5 mins of it in the movie would be overdone. Besides, I doubt normal non book reading movie goers will miss it.


Posted by PotterLine Aug 27th 2006

NO, NO and NO !!!!! Ok, they have to cut something, but NOT the "Weasley is our King" storyline!!!! It was bad enough that "the Marauders' background" and the "Quidditch cup" where cut from the PoA movie. Is there a PETITION somewhere?? Where can I sign ??


Posted by kaydogger Aug 27th 2006

whatever, i don't care. i recall JK saying she was so tired of writing quidditch games that's why she imposed the ban by umbridge in book 5. honestly, i'm sure they'll work around it in the movie. people need to really stop complaining. they can't fit EVERYTHING into one movie.


Posted by xoxlizzxox Aug 27th 2006

Ok, and NO ONE said they were cutting the R/Hr kiss. And if you need that little moment to justify your ship in the movies, then maybe you should reconsider weither you ship R/Hr because you see the evidence, or if it's because it's the obvious choice and JKR said so.


Posted by neville_is_my_king Aug 27th 2006

noooo! *very sad*


Posted by ayah_braceface Aug 27th 2006

warner bros. suck


Posted by dumbledores_bredrin Aug 27th 2006

i wanted to see that kiss :( I hope there DOES be some Quidditch in it though..


Posted by awrenmalfoy Aug 27th 2006

RUBBISH! THATS RUBBISH! LOL but still i mean they better not screw up this movie like they did with #4!


Posted by dumbledores_bredrin Aug 27th 2006
