Wasn't sure whether to post these at the_snarkery, here, both or neither; since we've not done any posts not related to the books yet. But I didn't want to leave out anyone who couldn't comment at the other post.
So if no-one wants me to do this ever again, say or something, mkay?

Some picspam, since I'm bored.
New GoF pictures.
Beware the dial-up!


How cute is Gabrielle, especially hero-worshiping big sis? Seriously, she'll break hearts. <3



Fleur beware! There's a new blonde on the bloke, with a foxier hairdo. (Love the way she looks so 40s.)



And here, cheering Harry's downfall (presumably.) Muhahaha! *fangirls Rita*



For the sickoes among you - Teh Radcliffe in the semi-buff! Lech away, I won't judge. Much.
Seriously, this is at least a better angled shot, since the Nipple of Doom was concealed, unlike the last promo. (I swear, between Breasty!Harry and the weirdass posture of the Slytherins and their jaunty childbearing hips, mpreg is not as far away as one would hope.



LOL at Padma's face.



Ron!



More obligatory H/Hr. Love Dan's expression, there. This was linked to as 'Hermione sad, Harry angry' but I honestly couldn't tell until I read the caption.



Hahaha, revenge for the Gryffindor smirking at the ferret scene. Gloat away, my pretties, gloat! Unless of course, this is just before the article about Ron's mum or something.
(Posture's still bizarre, too. Costuming should just sew up their pockets or something, like they do with toddler actors!)

So, whave Ron checking his pits for BO and everyone else standing around in velour jogging suits, or else wearing ill-fitting, lumpy clothes. Who would release photos like this as promos/teasers for a movie?

Ok, sure, they captured the awkwardness of adolesence, I guess, but really... If you're going to a formal dance, wouldn't you make sure your clothing fit?

In other news, Padma looks like a girl I used to live with.

Why do they have to wear those ridiculous dress robes when they've completely done away with wizarding clothes elsewhere? (But props for the scene of Ron smelling himself--I was worried he couldn't possibly have less dignity) Herimone's bag in that one picture (on tara's lj) is so aggressively Muggle it hurts. Not that she can't have a Muggle bag given that she's Hermione, but it kind of stands out. As does her blazer and tighty shirt (still pink--but now with boobs!)

I think the Slytherin scene is right before Draco is turned into a ferret, of course.

I had heard they *did* sew up the kids' pockets early on, actually, because they kept stuffing them with candy from the break room and they wouldn't hang right. I'd love to see an outtake where Malfoy yanks out his wand and a dozen skittles come pouring out with it, or it's covered in chocolate.

I do love Padma, though. She's wondering why she's dressed in perfectly normal Muggle clothes and Harry does indeed look like Dracula in a dress.

Awww, Gabrielle! <3. And Fleur is so pretty. I love Fleur. I want to protect her from the Weasleys. She deserves so much better.


80's shoulder pad!Rita kicks ass, too. *fangirls Rita something rotten* That character is severely underappreciated. I want her to write bios of every member of the wizarding world, with full-on snark.


I notice Rita is sitting close to McGonagall. Should I take this moment and declare the Skeeter/McGonagall ship, sailed by exactly one person OMG SO CANON LOOK AT THE SUBTEXT NO IT WAS NOT A BROTHERLY HUG ROWLING HOW DARE YOU GIVE US A MR MCGONAGALL IN BOOK SEVEN OMG U R SO HOMOPHOBIC!!111 or will fandom disown me then?


And Harry is really looking a lot like Dracula in his robes. Haha.

Is it just me, or does Padma look more appalled at Ron's hairdo then of his dress?

[jollityfarm.livejournal.com]

Ron's robes - I love them! They're groovy. Harry's robes don't look like they fit properly. Would have preferred the green ones from the actual book. I'm picturing something in a tasteful green paisley with a ridiculous Ming the Merciless collar. Probably not any more canon than the Dracula thing, but would be a lot more entertaining :)

I was appalled at first by the robes but I'm used to them now. I actually like Ron's better than Harry's. At least they don't look muggle. Where in the book does it say that dress robes resemble bad muggle dress suits?

lilith_morgana I'll sail the McG/Rita ship with you! She looks great I must say. Even without the magenta robes! :)

*winces* The hair! OH MY GOD THE HAIR. CUT IT, ALL OF YOU. YOU LOOK HORRIBLE.

Also, wtf is up with Harry's dress robes. I thought they were supposed to look good next to Ron's?

I think Gabrielle looks like a younger Tom Felton. It's the smile, I think.

Blondes Have More Fun in GOF!

Wow, Miranda Richardson is knocking my socks off in these shots – she looks GREAT. The outfits and hair are just wicked! No matter how the film in general turns out, she will not disappoint.

And Gabrielle indeed looks very ickle & cute. :)

As for Tom Felton...I have no problem with the wig. The style isn't particularly studly, glamourous or sexy, true...but it's not supposed to be. It suits his character – to my eyes he looks very much like the Draco described in the books. (Sometimes to play a role, one has to look a bit naff or uncool; Tom and Rupert seem to understand this better than those other two they work with.)

I'm happy with Tom's look here, and I'm betting he'll once again wipe the floor with his peers acting-wise in GOF. :D


Still no sign of Lucius, I see...
