****Harry Potter And The Deathy Hallows Spoiler****
So, when I saw these photos of Harry Potter I knew one of the pictures was Dobby being buried. I seem to recall Harry did it all on his own, but whatever. I am probably wrong about that. But, I am pretty sure I am right that Bellatrix Lestrange was nowhere near the burial, which makes the other picture hard to understand. Anyone have any ideas? Am I forgetting the book that much? Harry doesn't seem all that worried, but it could be because it is a rehearsal and also because the camera might not be positioned to see his expression. The other picture was taken on a break, but it shows Helena Bonham Carter and Warwick Davis who plays Griphook hanging out. Griphook was definitely there in the book, but I don't remember Bellatrix. Of course I am old and have lost millions of brain cells.
It's a location shoot -- so the scene with Dobby and the scene with Bellatrix could be unconnected (i.e. at totally different points in the script), but using the same location for shooting.
ReplyDeleteEnty, you are a geek. And I love you even more.

ReplyDeleteYou're right Enty- Harry buries Dobby without magic on his own for a bit until Ron and Bill join in. Bellatrix should be no where in sight. She stabs Dobby moments before he arrives at Shell cottage. This kind of makes me nervous that they might f* up this movie. They better not!
ReplyDeleteI don't recall a scene in the book where Bellatrix was holding a Starbucks cup, so I'm guessing that maybe these were "between scenes" rehearsal or setup shots?
ReplyDeleteSpoiler!!! Bellatrix carries a MacBook Air as well.
ReplyDeletelol, i cannot wait for new HP!
My guess for the middle picture is that it is from when Hermione takes polyjuice to transform into Bellatrix so they can break into the Lestrange vault at Gringotts.
ReplyDeletebut dobby dies in the last book - and that is not the one being filmed right now, is it?
ReplyDeleteTalk about being old and out of it...
Dobby dies?!?!?
ReplyDeleteCrap.
Didn't read them - too many big words . . . :-P
Dobby is my favorite - is that wrong?
oh, and i meant that i am feeling old! I thought they were just on movie four, or something like that. Which is strange, considering how I have seen all of them...
ReplyDelete1st Harry Potter was enough for me. Find them boring. Will wait for cable if interested.
ReplyDeleteHalf-Blood Prince (HP6) is done filming and comes out this summer; Deathly Hallows (HP7) is filming now and will be made into 2 movies.
ReplyDeleteI think Napoleon In Rags is right, it's when Hermione takes the Polyjuice Potion and transforms into Bellatrix. Ron is clearly in disguise as well, so that would explain it. It's probably right before they head off to Gringotts to break in. She's getting into character as Bellatrix and waving the wand around.
ReplyDeletei beleive they are breaking the last book into two movies being filmed at once and would explain the continuity issues.
ReplyDeleteI also think it's Hermione polyjuiced into Bellatrix. Either they slammed the scenes together or they're doing all the Shell Cottage footage on one day together. :)
ReplyDeleteHow cool are these pics!!!!!!!!! I'd forgotten about the polyjuice potion bit, time to drag out the books for another read!
ReplyDeleteAgree with everyone else...
ReplyDeleteFirst scene is Harry burying Dobby, however if I remember correctly it's Harry, Ron, and that hottie Dean Thomas who bury Dobby--Dean and Ron get tired so it's just Harry---then everyone comes out, including Hermione (who is still shaken by being tortured by Bellatrix?!) and Luna is the one who places Dobby in the grave.
And the second shot is when Hermione transforms into Bellatrix with polyjuice--are Hermione then uses the hexs to transform Rons face so he couldn't be recognized.
....I just do some serious spoiling, huh?

ReplyDeletei'm sorry, i keep bringing personal life into life into this, but my kids always wait in line for the the HP movies. i can see them now, summer you say? with her just pregnant enough to be miserable in the desert heat and him saying "c'mon, hun, i've packed up the car, got all the usual stuff...."
ReplyDeleteme thinks grandmommy having a handicapped placard is going to come in handy!
and mooshki, if you read that after midnight (well, on wednesday), i laughed a little bit!
Dear lord, I need to go back and reread DH...I do NOT remember Dobby dying, nor do I remember Hermione taking the polyjuice potion and breaking into Gringotts...
ReplyDelete...perhaps if I stopped smoking weed before I read these things....
