The Lake / Thinking...
June 29, 2005, 08:59:59 AM
Goblet was staring at the lake at midnight, just him and his restless thoughts, swirling in his mind, practically dreaming, and all of it was broken when he heard somebody coming...

Harry Potter Fan Fiction / Life and Death
June 24, 2005, 12:39:08 PM
(It would help you understand the story better if you read Goblet's history)
Goblet's Bio History: Nearly all of his family is killed except for Goblet and his parents. Brother is unknown. Goblet barely killed the death eater that killed nearly all of his family in self defense when the death eater came to kill him at his current age of 14. Goblet discovered his powers a month before he killed the death eater. Since death eaters are expected to come for his family, Goblet and his living parents are separated so if the death eaters come for his parents, he won't die with them. And sadly, vice versa.

       Goblet was at his house in the country, alone as always. He was back at his house for the holidays, though he didn't know why he didn't just stay at Hogwarts, or even go to his parents house. He found his owl Hermes (not Weasly Hermes) at his window and opened the expected letter from his parents. What his parents wrote was the same thing as always,"I'm sorry that you had to go away, but it was for the best. If something happened to you, nobody would know."      
            Goblet went down to his basement which he cleaned and organized everything that was there during the first two months he was at his new home. Goblet liked being down in the basement. It made him feel secure. Though there was one problem with the basement: About once every few months, somebody would end up there by accedent when they travel by portkey. People who end up there often yell at Goblet for thier mistake feeling it is best to put the blame on somebody. Goblet was finishing up his reply to his parents' letter, telling them that he will be all right. Then he closed up the letter, went outside to give the letter to his owl Hermes who was on a post drinking water. He noticed that it will be dark soon, but then he heard angry yelling...

This is my first fan fiction to write so if you give reviews, be honest. I swear I won't hold anything against you if you say anything negative. This isn't an RP.

Harry Potter Books / HRH animagi.
June 15, 2005, 12:23:12 AM
I think that HRH will each turn into animagi like James, Peter, and Sirius did. (Lupin was a werewolf) Post who you think will turn into what animal if this rumor is true. I think Harry will be able to turn into a fawn like his dad did. Ron, a dog. And Hermione, a cat.

General / Favorite site.
June 2, 2005, 04:32:36 AM
There is a lot of internet sites in the internet sea.  While some of them are old sites that never get updated and has terrible content (example: something.com), there are some sites that jump out of the internet sea and glisten in the sun for a few glorious moments. This is a terrible metaphor (or whatever you call it.) Now the point of this topic is for you to post what your favorite site is. If you want to, tell why it's your favorite site. (Note: Your favorite site can't be harrypotterfan.com or your own site.) My favorite site is homestarrunner.com. When you first see it, it kinda looks like a kiddy site but it's not. If you explore the site, you'll find it has very funny content that's funny for all ages. Here is the dialogue from a toon called Interview.

STRONG BAD: {narrating} So, Dumbstar has me meet him in this fruity little marshmallow stand he always goes to. He kept me waiting for a good half hour and I actually watched him walk by the place three or four times before he finally came in.
{Homestar enters and sits down.}
STRONG BAD: What the crap were you doing out there?
HOMESTAR RUNNER: Out where?
STRONG BAD: Outside! I watched you prance by, like, five times, man.
HOMESTAR RUNNER: Oh, I doubt it. I drove.
STRONG BAD: You don't own a car.
HOMESTAR RUNNER: Yeah, you're probably right.
STRONG BAD: Okay, let's get down to brass tacks.
HOMESTAR RUNNER: Ohhh, I didn't bring any. I drove.
STRONG BAD: Augh, this is gonna be painful.
HOMESTAR RUNNER: What, the tacks? I bet. Try not to sit on 'em.
STRONG BAD: No, stupid! This is an interview!
HOMESTAR RUNNER: Oh, well allow me to introduce myself. My name is Homestar Runner, and I feel that I would be a great asset to your company.
STRONG BAD: Okay, shut up. Now, first question: What's your freakin' problem?
HOMESTAR RUNNER: {hands over a grocery list} Well if you take a look at my resume {pronounces it as spelt, without the accent, like reh-zoom}, you'll see that I have quite a bit of experience in many different related fields.
STRONG BAD: Cut the crap! Just tell me what your freaking problem is!
HOMESTAR RUNNER: I can't really think of any.
STRONG BAD: {groaning} Ohhhh. Moving on. I've heard you enjoy prancing around like an idiot. Is this true?
{Homestar is outside prancing around.}
HOMESTAR RUNNER: La-dee-la-da-da-la-dee.
STRONG BAD: I suppose that answers my question. {Homestar enters and sits down.} Now, tell us about you girlfriend Marzipan. What's her deal?
HOMESTAR RUNNER: She told me today that she thinks your baking has really improved lately.
STRONG BAD: Oh, my baking, eh? I do enjoy baking every once and again.
HOMESTAR RUNNER: Interesting. I'll take note of that. {pulls out a notepad and pen} So, what else do you do in your spare time?
STRONG BAD: Well, I like to do the Jumble sometimes and—hey wait! I'm asking the questions here!

Two guys run this website and make a living off of it, and homestarrunner.com isn't a paysite and doesn't evenhave pop-ups. The only way the two guys make money is a store that is on the website. My typing finger is tired so post what your favorite site is.

Hogsmead / In the Hog's Head.
May 24, 2005, 10:59:54 AM
Goblet(real name Keith) goes to the Hog's Head hoping not find anyone on the way there. He covers his face with his cloak to make sure nobody knows its him as he walks in the Hog's Head. He walks up to the barkeeper. "What?" he says rudely. Goblet made the mistake of staring at the barkeeper's red slit in his eye."You want a drink or do you want your eye to have something in common with mine?" he said threateningly. "Butterbear." said Goblet curtly. He sits down and drinks the butterbear silently while staring around. The only person in the Hog's Head besides him and the barkeeper is a person covered in about 10 cloaks looking intently at a dirty ring and muttering under his breath. "It could be worse," Goblet told himself. He would never show up at the Three Broomsticks after he was tricked into drinking the goblet at the triwizard tournament. Luckily, Dumbledore drew a line to keep him from having fire in his body. He became distracted after saw someone come in the Hog's Head.

General / A very hard trick question.
May 24, 2005, 04:13:32 AM
This is really just a bunch of clues with one answer except for clue number 3. Since it was so hard for me to figure it out when I was asked this, I thought I should post it. Try to look at few clues as possible. Have fun.

1.This is greater than God.


2.This is more evil than the devil.


3.This has seven letters.


4.If you eat this, you will die.


5.Homeless people have this.


6.Rich people don't have this.





Give up? Or did you make a guess? Here is the answer. The answer IS (cue drumroll) .................................................................................................................................................................... .................................................................................................................................................................................. .................................................................................................................................................................................. .................................................................................................................................................................................. .................................................................................................................................................................................. .................................................................................................................................................................................. .................................................................................................................................................................................. .................................................................................................................................................................................. .................................................................................................................................................................................. .................................................................................................................................................................................. .................................................................................................................................................................................. .................................................................................................................................................................................. .................................................................................................................................................................................. .................................................................................................................................................................................. .................................................................................................................................................................................. ..............NOTHING!!!  ;D ;D ;D

Nothing is greater than God.
Nothing is more evil than the devil.
Nothing has seven letters.
If you eat nothing, you will die. 
Homeless people have nothing.
Rich people don't have nothing.

Are you surprised? I had a hard time answering this question too.

Did you enjoy the last two topics about movie mistakes I posted? Now here is the movie mistakes of the 3rd HP movie.

When Harry, Ron, and Hermione are in Hagrid's hut prior to Buckbeak's execution, a stone flies in the window and strikes a pot, splitting it pretty much down the middle. There are two major shards. However, when Harry and Hermione 'relive' this moment from their position among the pumpkins, the stone breaks the pot in a very different pattern, with smaller pieces. Since the same event is just being played through in time again, the pot should have broken exactly the same way both times.

When Harry drops the Monster Book of Monsters, in the first shot facing Harry's feet as the book chomps at him, he runs backwards a few steps and he stands at the foot of the bed. However, in the shot facing the fireplace, there is actually plenty of floorspace now, much more than other shots, between the rug and bed for Harry to continue to run backwards.

When Malfoy and his friends bother Ron and Hermione, Harry shows up and messes with the three boys. He grabs hold of Malfoy's feet, lifts them in the air and pulls him across the snow. In the first close-up of the soles of Malfoy's boots, not a spec of snow is on them, though he was just walking in it!! Then in the next close-up, his feet still in the air, the soles are now covered in snow.

At Hagrid's, when HRH are there the first time in the film, there is a large birdcage, blue cup and saucer, watering can and a small wood planter with seedlings on the windowsill. Later, when Hermione visibly throws the first stone, as the stone flies through the window the watering can and blue cup's positions differ and the wood planter and large birdcage are actually gone! When she throws the second stone they are back on the windowsill.

In the first exterior shot through the back patio door, as the Dursleys eat, the kitchen window and patio set below are visibly quite far from the white patio enclosure. Later, when Vernon falls to the ground as Marge floats away, Petunia runs to him and now the kitchen window, on a supposed brick wall, is actually right beside the white patio enclosure! Adding to the absurdity, the entire house is in the opening shot of the film and that middle part of the wall is conspicuously missing.

The song "Something Wicked This Way Comes" is staged with a mixed choir, with a majority of girls. However, to the trained ear, you can tell the song is sung by an all-boys chorus.

When HRH go to find Malfoy, Crabbe, and Goyle, you see Hermione point her wand at Malfoy's face and Malfoy turns his face to the left. However, when Harry and Hermione went back in time and you see (the other) Hermione point her wand at Malfoy, his face turns to the right. (Courtesy of Any$Potter)

My last post showed the mistakes of the 1st Harry Potter movie. This time I am talking about the 2nd.

In the scene where Tom Riddle is writing his name in the air using his wand, play it in slow motion and you can see some letters, particularly the A in Marvolo, are written before Tom writes it with his wand.

In the dueling scene, when Snape pulls Malfoy back onto his feet, a cameraman is visible on the far left of the screen.

Rushing to make Hogwarts Express at the train station, the shot opens as the camera pans Ginny's trunk and TWO marks come into view . While Ginny and Mr. Weasley push her trolley, Mr. Weasley (Mark Williams) is cued and begins to say, "10:58, come on, come on!" just as the actor hits his tape MARK on the ground below, while Percy's trolley hits its tape mark, so Harry is visible behind him, and cues Mr. Weasley to continue speaking. In the shot when Mrs. Weasley says, "Okay." for Ginny to go and in the shot as Harry says, "Let's go.", their marks are obviously gone.

When in the Whomping Willow, Ron asks, "What's happening?" and Harry replies, "I don't know." After a few other shots, in the next two front close-ups of the boys as they scream, Harry, Ron and Hedwig are not alone in the car. A crewmember's HAND is quite visible holding the bottom of Hedwig's cage and in the 2nd close-up is actually laying the cage on its side!!

In Flourish and Blotts, when Lockhart says "Which, incidentally, is currently celebrating its 27th week atop the Daily Prophet bestseller list," the overhead camera pans up. As the camera passes his feet, Tom Felton's mark, two long strips of white tape are perfectly visible on the balcony floor where he stands.

At the beginning of the scene near the end of the movie with Lucius Malfoy fuming at Dumbledore in his office, Malfoy's hair is fanned back behind his shoulders. The lighting in the room illuminates the back of his neck, where you can see his real, short brown hair.

Harry and Ron's trunks are being thrown out of the car and in the shot just before Harry's close-up, Ron's trunk slams down on the grass. The top of this trunk has a large perfectly symmetrical hole in the center with four round marks around it, which was probably involved in the throwing somehow. In the wide shot as Hedwig is being tossed out, the trunks are clearly visible and there is no hole in either, nor is there a hole in Ron's trunk at any other time.

When Lockhart falls down the hole into the Chamber of Secrets, we hear him hit the ground a second or two later. When Ron and Harry jump down, not only do they take longer to get down, they also slide down the pipe, rather than fall straight down.

In the Quidditch scene, Harry breaks his right arm and cradles it on his chest, but when he is laying on the ground after he falls off his broom, he then leans directly on it when he sits up to get away from the Bludger. In the shot immediately afterward, he has his hand cradled in front of him again.

As Harry climbs the Salazar Slytherine stone head's locks of hair, the Basilisk crashes his face and creates the first immense hole. As Harry tries to climb higher, it pounds into the stone again creating another huge hole, higher up on another lock of hair, to Harry's left as he hangs on. However, when the Basilisk smashes his face into the stone a third time, as Harry nears the top, the second huge hole is GONE, in this shot and in the first wide shot in which Tom Riddle is visible.

Here is a list of the mistakes of the 1st Harry Potter movie. I am not talking about the story. I am talking about stuff such as a piece of equipment that is showing that isn't supposed to.

At the Quidditch match, after Hermione sets Snape's cloak on fire and someone shouts, "Fire! You're on fire!", there is a close-up of Harry with his hands gripping the Nimbus 2000. In this shot, the wire rods which are attached/taped to the broomstick, near Harry's fingers, that lead under both of his red sleeves, are entirely visible.

Petunia has her hands on Dudley's eyes as they walk towards all of his birthday gifts. When she removes her hands from Dudley's eyes, in this shot and in the next, the long black microphone wire as well as its tape, which obviously peeled free, are blatantly visible and are sticking out at the neckline of her v-neck top under the pearl necklace. It's gone in the following shots. (Do not confuse the blue apron strings for the mic wire.)

When the troll enters the girls' lavatory, in the wide shot as Hermione walks backwards towards the cubicles, the room becomes brighter from the storm. With this extra bright light it is simple to see that the wall between the 2nd & 3rd cubicles actually touches the floor, unlike the other cubicle walls. Yet, in the overhead shot as the troll's club slams into the cubicles, Hermione is lying under that very wall crawling away. Impossible!!

During the Quidditch match Harry's broomstick tries to shake him off, due to the spell. After Hermione tells Ron, "Leave it to me.", in Harry's last close-up before he flips over, the seat that is attached to the broomstick, to make it more comfortable for Dan Radcliffe to sit on, is entirely visible. Glimpses of other seats can be had during the match as well.

During the Quidditch match as the players ride their broomsticks, visible in quite a few shots are the two WIRES that are attached to the broom handle, between their legs, that extend down with a clamped loop that goes around their feet. In some shots the wires between their legs are edited, but the wire loops around their feet are perfectly visible, like in the following example. When the Slytherin score hits 10 onscreen, in the next shot, as Flint shouts, "Take that side.", the wire is completely visible at his right foot under his cloak. Two examples where the entire wires are visible are, when Flint grabs the club and says, "Gimme that!", the wires are blatantly visible and he then proceeds to slam the Bludger into Wood, who falls. Next close-up of one of the twins, the wires are clearly visible before Flint starts to leap over him. (Don't confuse the cloak's long front ties for the wire.)

After falling from the Devil's Snare, Harry tells Ron, "Lucky Hermione pays attention in Herbology." Then as Ron starts to walk toward Harry, there is a crewmember's arm and hand gripping the back of Ron's shirt at the bottom!

Being chased by the flying keys, as Harry zips by on the broomstick he tosses the key, Hermione catches it and runs to the door. In the next shot, a close-up, as she tries to unlock the door, an electrical cable hangs down beside the column, that was not in the previous shots. There is also an electrical cable coming out from under the back of Hermione's sweater that is blatantly visible as well.

While at the zoo, after Dudley falls into the snake exhibit there is a close-up of the Python's head. At the start of this shot, before Dudley pops out of the water, in the upper left corner of the screen a piece of WOOD comes down to actually prod the trained snake and then quickly moves back up out of shot!

After Quirrell announces there's a troll in the dungeon, Dumbledore shouts, "Silence!" and soon continues, "Teachers will follow me to the dungeons." In the following shot of McGonagall, the wires that the candles hang from are plainly visible.

Harry, Ron and Hermione, run to Hagrid's hut to tell him that they know about the Stone and they knock on the door. As Hagrid opens the door in the first shot looking out, Harry stands behind his tape mark and Hermione and Ron visibly stand behind their shared black tape MARK on the step.

Dumbledore tells Harry that he will move the Mirror of Erised and not to go looking for it. In the following shot Harry walks outside in the snow with Hedwig on his arm. In the close-up of Hedwig, the jess (strap) around his left leg is visibly tethered to Harry's sleeve. The inside of Harry's sleeve also has a strap that secures the sleeve around Harry's wrist. Hedwig is obviously not tethered in the next shot.

McGonagall and Hagrid leave baby Harry on the Dursley's doorstep. When the shot opens in the first close-up of the baby, as Dumbledore places the envelope on the blanket, though a good portion of his forehead is visible, the scar is not there. In his next close-up, it is very apparent, due to the position of the scar, that part of it should have been visible on his forehead in the previous close-up.

When Harry, Ron, and Hermione go to ask Hagrid where he got the dragon egg, and Harry says,"Don't you think it is a bit odd?" You can see Hermione mouthing the rest of his lines.

On the day the 5th HP book came out, I went to Barnes and Noble to buy the 5th HP book but they were all sold out.  Dissapointed, I also went to the electronics store, Best Buy, with my dad to buy a new remote, only to find that Best Buy had nearly a full stock of the Fifth Harry Potter book.  So instead of going to Barnes and Noble, go to Best Buy which I am 99% sure will have the 6th HP book the day it comes out.  Nobody else would even think of going to Best Buy to buy a book, let alone a Harry Potter book.  I know I sound like I am advertising, but I swear I'm not. I'm am just passing along info.

Instead of who will die, I am wondering who will be saved by Harry. I think that Harry will save Cho. In the movies, the hero saves the damsel in distress in which he enevitably has a romantic relationship with. So why won't it happen in the book? Don't get me wrong, this is just my prediction. I still think that Cho is stupid for being so overly sensitive.
