I saw this picture http://www.imdb.com/gallery/ss/0373889/Ss/0373 889/4760r.jpg.html?path=gallery&path_key=03738 89 on imdb, does anyone know which character its meant to be?

That's Luna Lovegood. I can't remember her dad's name but he writes the Quibbler magazine.

Absolutely enigma, I'm not sure her dad's name is ever mentioned although her mum is supposed to be a witch.......oh, and the actress is evanna lynch...

[enigma]

That'll be why I can't remember his name Buckykat , lol ! My daughter is desperate to see the new film and she absolutely loves the books (actually , her dad and I like Harry Potter too to be honest) and it was only after I had typed my answer that I suddenly had my doubts if I had even heard his name being mentioned before. I got a bit mixed up. Yes , you are spot on with her name, she's an Irish girl.

I can't wait either and I don't even have the excuse of a daughter to take!! Loony is one of my fave characters and I think the actress looks like great casting - as always....

[enigma]

I know. Do you know roughly when the next film is due to hit the cinemas ? My eldest daughter is nine and with each film , I question the suitability for her but I couldn't NOT let her see it and to be honest , I don't think that they are as 'dark' as they are made out to be. Perhaps very young viewers would be alarmed by certain scenes but this is where parental guidance and common sense comes in. I certainly wouldn't let my three year old see it but my nine year old is very sensible and I seem to jump more than her. Case in point - the dementors ! I cried when Cedric Diggory died and my daughter was mortified but i'm a big softie like that.

They do always seem to cast well. My daughter was so excited when she heard that they were auditioning in Scotland for the part of Cho Chang because she wanted to audition so badly. I had to break it to her gently that given the fact that she isn't oriental , she wouldn't really fit with the image of Cho Chang. Oh and the fact that she is only nine ! However , if they ever want a nine year old , Scottish girl who is like a lovesick puppy at the mention of Harry Potter , then my daughter's their girl. She wishes !

I can't wait for order of the chicken.. i mean phoenix. The order members are really good actors, including ... remember indiana jones and the raiders of the lost ark? remember the black smuggler captain who hides indie? He is playing Shacklebolt.
And the great Imelda Staunton as evil Dolore Umbridge!

the film is out in 270 days, 22 hours and 57 minutes - which i know because i'm very sad an downloaded a timer thingy from leakynews.com

oh, thats 13.7.07 btw

I always think the books are more scary than the films and a child's imagaination is usually better than anything film can produce - hence we get scared but they don't! And yes, I cried at Diggory's death although the bf thinks I cry at lots of strange things :o)

I've never seen indiana jones but I'm sure they will continue to recruit the best talent for the show - I love Miranda as Rita Skeeter - perfect!
