Have just come to the startling realization that I like Neville. A lot. And I always have.
THE FOLLOWING CONTAINS SPOILERS FOR HARRY POTTER AND THE GOBLET OF FIRE. IF YOU HAVEN'T READ IT AND YOU CARE, DON'T READ ANY FURTHER.*
Also, I know I know I KNOW that they can't make Goblet of Fire into a movie and not lose a TON of things, but honestly. They cut all the Weasleys,(who aren't in Hogwarts) the house elves, SPEW,(Ok I don't mind that one) and Rita being an animagus, which irritates me the most because that's such a little and yet such an important thing. I LOVE how Hermione gets the best of her after all she puts her through. It's like how in Prisoner of Azkaban they failed to mention who Moony, Wormtail, Padfoot, and Prongs were. (Besides misspelling Moony.) It would have taken like two seconds and made the movie make so much more sense.
And really, who cares if Hermione's dress is pink instead of blue? If we're going to be indiganat, let's focus on something like the fact that Winky isn't even in the movie. Cause she wasn't important or anything.
*Deep breaths*
I knew it would happen, but sheesh. "You half a beetle in your 'air" loses everything if that beetle isn't really Rita. (And won't all this matter in later movies? It's like editing out Peeves...It just doesn't make any sense, and he's like, necessary later on...)
Ok, I'm done ranting. And I still like Neville.
*And also, why haven't you? Shame!

For example, I refused to go see The Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants because they made Eric blonde when in the book it says that he is HALF MEXICAN AND THEREFORE HAS DARK SKIN AND BLACK HAIR.
Picky, aren't we?
Hahahahaha!

And Moody's electric-tape eye. Did the run out of budget or something?
Grr.

*love*
