[16:12] <MrMcGonagall> Awww, and I wasn't there. [16:12] <JaneMarple9> took me a while to find the booth - you have to lock the doors now to stop me getting in here!! [16:13] <Greeneyes15> i really wish i could come to every chat, but that totally not possible for me... [16:13] <cbm> I like the CB myself, I used to do irc chats years ago and always enjoyed them [16:14] <JaneMarple9> the www ones are difficult as they start too late in england [16:14] <JaneMarple9> but i look the weekend ones [16:14] <fawkes28> as soon as I found it in early august, i was addicted [16:15] <fawkes28> !moderated [16:15] <JaneMarple9> and me fawkes [16:15] <fawkes28> We will be starting the discussion in a few minutes.

[16:16] <fawkes28> While its easy to drift off in various directions, let's all try to have a fun chat by sticking to the topic for today. OK, moving on to the topic for the chat! [16:16] <Theoriser> This week on PotterCast we had a great culinary fan interview, some more fan reactions to the cover art, and an hilarious discussion with the Scribby editors. Let’s get the discussion rolling! [16:16] <Theoriser> Michael Goldenberg talked about his reverence for Jo’s material and the difficult decisions that have to be made about cutting subplots. What do you think about the challenges that screenwriters face? [16:17] <MrMcGonagall> It has to be tough, especially for someone like Goldenberg who's a fan that loves the author's work. [16:17] <Sophia40> I love that they even try to put the movie out there [16:17] <Greeneyes15> i thin it must be hard be a screenwriter, especialy for books like these. [16:17] <JaneMarple9> must be hard [16:18] <fawkes28> i could never do his job - there is so much i would want in the movie [16:18] <Sophia40> I loved what he said about waiting in line like all the r rest of the fans [16:18] <Theoriser> it has to be hard for them, 'cause they'll have to cut something, but whatever they cut some people will be unhappy [16:18] <MrMcGonagall> It must be difficult, wanting to include everything but having to cut out great chunks that are sidelines to the main story. [16:18] <JaneMarple9> but by the look of the pictures etc it looks as if it is going to stick to the book [16:18] <Greeneyes15> i know fawks, the though of cutting something from those books is heartbreaking for me. It has to be hard on him topo [16:18] <JaneMarple9> unlike some of the previous films [16:18] <MrMcGonagall> I've always understood that it's not possible to include everything in a screenplay, so I'm always prepared for condensation. [16:18] <fawkes28> there really is a lot to think about when you are writing a screenplay [16:19] <MrMcGonagall> But condensing the novel needs to be done responsibly, so I'm glad that Goldenberg is a true fan of Jo's work. [16:19] <fawkes28> a lot goes on in Harry's head so it is hard to get all of that across in a movie without being too boring [16:19] <Greeneyes15> me too Mr. M! i luv how he's a fan [16:20] <WaggaWaggaWerewolf> I'm sure that helps. Is it always the screenwriter though? A lot depends on other things as well. Scenery for example [16:20] <Greeneyes15> it makes me more confident in him to know he's such a fan cuz you know he'll do the best job he can. [16:20] <Sophia40> I think they have done a good job froms some of the stuff I have read [16:20] <fawkes28> transfering something from paper to screen is very difficult, you are right, wagga [16:21] <Greeneyes15> brb guys... [16:21] <findjoy> I accept that things have to be cut from the book, but I get upset when characteristics are altered. For example, in GofF movie, Dumbedore wasn't true to the written persona. [16:21] *** Aislinn has joined #lounge [16:22] <fawkes28> hey Aislinn [16:22] <MrMcGonagall> I always hope they stay true to the vision and not necessarily the specifics of the original work [16:22] <Sophia40> Well I think the way Gabon portrays him is a little different than how he is in my mind [16:22] <cbm> I think that was the director [16:22] <Joyhawk2121> I always hope that too MrMc [16:22] <Theoriser> Do you believe in Crumple-Horned Snorkacks? (If you say you don’t, somewhere a Crumple-Horned Snorkack drops down dead). How about a Lightsaber Spell? [16:23] <MrMcGonagall> No, and no. [16:23] <Aislinn> yes, cbm, I think that the director didn't draw out the best performances from anyone in GoF [16:23] <Sophia40> Hi Aislinn [16:23] <Aislinn> hi smile [16:23] <JaneMarple9> not sure about the snorkack [16:23] <findjoy> I think you're right that it was the director, does anyone know about the director on the next film? [16:23] <fawkes28> ok i'll say i don't laugh [16:23] <MrMcGonagall> I do not believe in Crumple-Horned Snorkacks! LOL [16:23] <JaneMarple9> might see them every day without knowing it! [16:23] <cbm> I hope they exist [16:23] * fawkes28 thinks the earth just shook [16:24] <JaneMarple9> laugh [16:24] <MrMcGonagall> I don't believe in the Lightsaber spell, either. Wouldn't a severing charm be as effective? [16:24] <Sophia40> David Yates Director for OotP [16:25] * fawkes28 agrees with Mr. M again [16:25] <Aislinn> I would think so, Mr M [16:25] <Aislinn> and would come from the wizarding world and not someplace far, far away in a distant galaxy laugh [16:25] <cbm> light saber spell sounds like bad fanfiction to me [16:26] <Sophia40> Is that the question about he Snorkack [16:26] <MrMcGonagall> John and his Star Wars references. hehehe [16:26] <Theoriser> In the fan interview, Melissa interviewed Gracie Lane, who made a cake with the image of the U.S. Deathly Hallows cover. Have you ever tried to make Harry Potter-themed food? [16:26] <Sophia40> light saber spell LLOLOLOLO!!!!!! [16:26] <cbm> no [16:26] <MrMcGonagall> I have not. [16:26] <Aislinn> nope, me either [16:26] <Sophia40> No [16:26] <fawkes28> nope - i wouldnt want to burn down the house [16:27] <MrMcGonagall> Tempted to try a pumpkin pasty, but I have not attempted it yet. [16:27] <Joyhawk2121> no, Not me [16:27] <JaneMarple9> not me [16:27] <MrMcGonagall> Maybe next Thanksgiving. [16:27] <cbm> I have a friend who owns a cake business and he has a printer that could print a jpg on a cake, though that would be cheating to me [16:27] <Aislinn> yes, Mr M, I think the pumpkin pasties might be fun to try [16:27] <JaneMarple9> think it would be the same result as fawkes too smile [16:27] <fawkes28> does butter beer count? maybe i could make that [16:27] <Sophia40> Pumpkin pasty sound great for my release party [16:27] <fawkes28> or pumkin juice [16:27] <MrMcGonagall> There's a great recipe for licorice wands on Leaky. [16:27] <fawkes28> *pumpkin [16:28] <WaggaWaggaWerewolf> I once got a birthday cake with a Harry Potter motif. [16:28] <MrMcGonagall> Pumpkin juice sounds gross to me, as does butterbeer [16:28] <Theoriser> I've always wanted to try out some of those recipes [16:28] <JaneMarple9> sound nicer in books than in real life [16:28] <fawkes28> oh, i never got a cake like that - must have been great [16:28] <Sophia40> What is butterbeer anyway? Is it real? [16:28] <JaneMarple9> i am sure us Muggles wouldn't enjoy some of the inventions [16:28] <fawkes28> i think it involves club soda and i am not sure what else [16:29] <Greeneyes15> i can't even imagine what those tast like...butterbeer...pumpkin juice...? [16:29] <MrMcGonagall> There are real recipes for butterbeer out there. [16:29] <WaggaWaggaWerewolf> club soda and butterscotch schnapps. smile [16:29] <Theoriser> well Jo made it up but people have invented recipes for it now [16:29] <JaneMarple9> i imagine butterbeer has butter and beer in it smile [16:29] *** Joyhawk2121 has quit [Bye] [16:29] <Sophia40> I like to find one? someone needs to PM me with it! [16:30] <MrMcGonagall> If it's anything like buttered rum, you can keep it. Ew. [16:30] <Greeneyes15> laugh jane [16:30] *** Joyhawk2121 has joined #lounge [16:30] <Theoriser> OK, be honest. Would you be able to cut into and eat a Harry Potter cake? [16:30] <fawkes28> this thread has ideas for recipes: http://www.leakylounge.com/Yumm-sound-good-t16366.html [16:30] <Aislinn> I think Jo said something about butterscotch flavor in it [16:30] <MrMcGonagall> If it's chocolate, yes. [16:30] <cbm> yes [16:30] <JaneMarple9> yep! [16:30] <Joyhawk2121> yes [16:30] <Greeneyes15> i would feel bad ruining that kind of art acually [16:30] <MrMcGonagall> I get his wand arm! [16:30] <JaneMarple9> take a photo of it first [16:30] <fawkes28> oh, no - i would have to take lots of pictures first [16:30] <JaneMarple9> and then eat every last crumb! [16:30] <Sophia40> No I wouldn't want to ruin it! [16:30] <Greeneyes15> but i could totally eat the cake if someone forced me smile [16:31] <JaneMarple9> if you didn't eat it, it would go bad [16:31] <Greeneyes15> i luv cake! Hmm... [16:31] <Sophia40> Thanks Fawkes28 [16:31] <WaggaWaggaWerewolf> So could I. But that was really fancy cake decorating for the girl who made that cake. I thought it was lovely. [16:31] <WaggaWaggaWerewolf> I thought she did a great job [16:32] <Sophia40> I don't like Cake! Ice cream and cookies for me [16:32] <JaneMarple9> she did the front cover didn't she? [16:32] <MrMcGonagall> A lot of effort. [16:32] <Greeneyes15> i ddin't get to see it! was it really that pretty? did it look alot like the cover art? [16:32] <WaggaWaggaWerewolf> Yes. Cake decorating is hard. I've done a couple of TAFE courses about it. [16:32] <WaggaWaggaWerewolf> It was so good I printed out the picture of the cake [16:32] <Theoriser> Abby from Ohio wondered what Harry was wearing around his neck on the U.S. cover. What do you think it is? [16:33] <fawkes28> the fake locket [16:33] <cbm> I now think it is a pouch [16:33] <JaneMarple9> it's either the locket from the front cover of UK hardback [16:33] <Sophia40> It was very pretty with all the right colors looked just like the cover of the US cover [16:33] <Joyhawk2121> the locket [16:33] <cbm> I used to agree with fawkes [16:33] <fawkes28> but why would he have a pouch, cbm? [16:33] <Greeneyes15> o that ws me guys...it spelled Abbey btw laugh! [16:33] <JaneMarple9> or it is sirius's two way mirror, in bits [16:33] <cbm> to carry multiple things [16:33] <Sophia40> At first I thought the Locket [16:33] <WaggaWaggaWerewolf> We'll find out for sure in July [16:34] <fawkes28> like what? i am interested to know smile [16:34] <MrMcGonagall> I thought the locket at first myself, but now I'm not sure. [16:34] <JaneMarple9> or it could be a potion - felix felicies or draught of living death [16:34] <cbm> I did a bunch of work in photoshop on it and there is not nearly enough detail to see what it is [16:34] <Sophia40> BRB! [16:34] <cbm> like the fake locket and the realy one [16:34] <MrMcGonagall> Ah, the vagaries of pastels. [16:35] <fawkes28> i agree with the fake locket part [16:35] <Greeneyes15> i think it's either the fake or real locket [16:35] <fawkes28> oh, Jane - i like that idea [16:35] <Greeneyes15> i can't deside between the two tho [16:35] <JaneMarple9> lots of possibilities! [16:35] <fawkes28> that would be a great thing to carry - it would definitely help harry [16:35] <WaggaWaggaWerewolf> Wasn't the potion all used up? [16:35] <fawkes28> slughorn has more [16:36] <Theoriser> yeah that's a good idea Jane, I guess it doesn't have to be a locket [16:36] <JaneMarple9> they could magic some more - they are wizards! [16:36] <WaggaWaggaWerewolf> Or would Slughorn give him some more without a lot of explanation? [16:36] <cbm> I looked at the negative image, and then played with the contrast and brightness, there is just no detail there, but it is not round [16:36] <JaneMarple9> i think so [16:36] <JaneMarple9> if he knew harry wanted to destroy horcruxes [16:36] <fawkes28> hmmm, i will have to look at it more carefully [16:37] <Aislinn> the locket isn't round though, it's oval [16:37] <Greeneyes15> that wat i thought aislinn [16:37] <JaneMarple9> it could be a galleon [16:37] <JaneMarple9> one of those what the DA use [16:37] <WaggaWaggaWerewolf> That is right, and it is on the UK cover. I think that must be the real thing [16:38] <WaggaWaggaWerewolf> So Harry could call for help when he needs it? [16:38] <JaneMarple9> sounds a good idea [16:38] <Theoriser> Richard from California thought Harry might be going it alone for part of Deathly Hallows. Will the trio stick together on the horcrux hunt? [16:38] <JaneMarple9> all his friends come to assist him [16:38] <cbm> It is more pointed on the end, and not curved [16:38] <JaneMarple9> they'll stick together i think [16:38] <findjoy> again, I'm new, but can someone tell me why the cover on the UK book is different from the US cover? [16:38] <Joyhawk2121> I think the trio will stick together [16:38] <fawkes28> definitely [16:39] <WaggaWaggaWerewolf> Different publishers you see. [16:39] <JaneMarple9> but harry will destoy voldie alone [16:39] <fawkes28> but in the end it will be harry and voldie [16:39] <JaneMarple9> and different artists [16:39] <MrMcGonagall> I think the trio will more or less stick together. [16:39] <Greeneyes15> i think they'll be together most o fthe book, but i think Harry has to fave LV alone [16:39] <fawkes28> great minds - jane [16:39] <Aislinn> harry always ends up alone at some point, usually the critical one [16:39] <WaggaWaggaWerewolf> Findjoy, that is the usual reason. US covers have Mary Grandpre and the UK covers are done by someone else [16:39] <cbm> I hope so, but I could see harry trying to go on his own [16:40] <Greeneyes15> ok...i really gotta get going ya'all! it was great chattin with everyone! [16:40] <Aislinn> bye greeneyes [16:40] <JaneMarple9> he'll have the final battle on his own [16:40] <WaggaWaggaWerewolf> Nice seeing you too. [16:40] <Greeneyes15> see yas! bye1 [16:40] <fawkes28> yes, he does, Aislinn [16:40] <JaneMarple9> but hermione will assist harry with information and ron will assist harry by "being there" [16:40] *** Greeneyes15 has quit [Bye] [16:40] <Sophia40> I m back bye greeneyes [16:41] <WaggaWaggaWerewolf> wb sophia [16:42] <Theoriser> Do you think there other veils, or do the souls of all those who die go through the veil in the Ministry? Do you think there are Biblical overtones to the veil? [16:42] <Sophia40> I hate to think that Harry will face LV alone! [16:42] <JaneMarple9> i think there is only one veil [16:42] <fawkes28> yes, i agree with one veil [16:42] <JaneMarple9> or there might be another near Godric's Hollow [16:42] <Aislinn> I think there is probably more than one [16:42] <Joyhawk2121> Yeah, one veil [16:43] <Sophia40> I think that there is only veil! [16:43] <WaggaWaggaWerewolf> I'm not sure that there are other veils, and the US cover does look a bit like the veil room in OotP [16:43] <fawkes28> well Jo does have Christianity in her books so i am sure there is [16:43] <JaneMarple9> perhaps there are some biblibic undertones [16:43] <Aislinn> I don't believe that every wizarding soul in the world passes through the British Ministry's DoM [16:43] <Sophia40> Where was the veil before it was at the minstry? [16:43] <MrMcGonagall> I wouldn't have said so before, but after hearing this person's voicemail I began to re-think this. [16:43] <JaneMarple9> she seems to concentrate on arthurian legends too [16:43] <WaggaWaggaWerewolf> No, but luring LV to the veil room is probably good strategy [16:44] <cbm> I think she pulls stuff from an incredibly large number of sources and none of them are the key [16:44] <MrMcGonagall> I agree, cbm. [16:44] <WaggaWaggaWerewolf> You could be right. [16:45] <fawkes28> Only 15 minutes left, everyone! This has been a great chat! I want to remind you all that this transcript can be found at the PotterCast Forum http://www.leakylounge.com/PotterCast-f104.html. [16:45] <Sophia40> I agree cbm Jo uses a wide varity of sources and references [16:46] <Theoriser> Were there any other cover art reactions that particularly intrigued you? [16:46] <WaggaWaggaWerewolf> The robes Hermione and Ron were wearing [16:46] *** danae24 has joined #lounge [16:46] <MrMcGonagall> Hi, danaea! [16:46] <WaggaWaggaWerewolf> in the UK ed [16:46] <danae24> Sorry!!! I nearly forgot! [16:46] <WaggaWaggaWerewolf> hi danae [16:46] <fawkes28> hey danae [16:46] <Theoriser> hi danae [16:47] <danae24> but at least I'm here for the end... [16:47] <JaneMarple9> i was intrigued by the locket on the Hard back UK one [16:47] <Sophia40> The treasure and possible horcuxes [16:47] <Joyhawk2121> who is behind Harry [16:47] <danae24> what are you talking about??? [16:47] <JaneMarple9> mainly because that is the one i am getting! [16:47] <Theoriser> The Scribby segment discussed the hilarious essay “Snape: Good or Bad, or Good in Bed?” Do you have an obsessive love (or at least fascination) for Snape? [16:47] <JaneMarple9> harry potter smile [16:47] <WaggaWaggaWerewolf> the covers of Deathly Hallows [16:47] <Aislinn> ewwwww [16:47] <JaneMarple9> no not me [16:47] <cbm> definiately not love [16:48] * fawkes28 has no fascination with him at all [16:48] <MrMcGonagall> I do not. I am a confirmed Snape-loather, which may be a neurosis in itself. [16:48] <danae24> I dont like Snape, but I did get a kick out of that segment.... [16:48] <Sophia40> Its a house elf!!!! [16:48] <fawkes28> hehehe [16:48] <Theoriser> well put, Aislinn! [16:48] <Joyhawk2121> ewww noooo [16:48] <danae24> maybe we need a Snape Haters Anonimous [16:48] <fawkes28> i loved that essay - and i posted in that thread too [16:48] <fawkes28> no Snape Haters [16:48] <fawkes28> boo [16:48] <JaneMarple9> great idea Danae [16:48] <MrMcGonagall> The essay was wonderfully tongue-in-cheek. [16:48] <Aislinn> it is such a funny essay [16:48] <JaneMarple9> please may i be the first member? smile [16:48] <cbm> why should we be anonymous? [16:48] <WaggaWaggaWerewolf> I'll have to read it. [16:49] <danae24> ok, we will be Snape Haters incorporated [16:49] <Sophia40> EEEEEwwwww I can't think of Snape that way to horrible!!!! yuk!!!! [16:49] <WaggaWaggaWerewolf> Because the others mightn't like it? I'm a Snape hater, but I'm curious to find out what happens to him, [16:49] <danae24> and Jane will be the first member... [16:49] <Aislinn> it's amazing the number of women who do think of him that way though [16:49] <JaneMarple9> laugh [16:49] <danae24> and Fawkes will be an honorary member (even if she doesnt admit she hates Snape....) [16:49] <MrMcGonagall> I know, is it just because they have a thing for Alan Rickman, or what? [16:50] <WaggaWaggaWerewolf> Er a bit down and dirty? [16:50] <JaneMarple9> snape is just evil for me [16:50] <Aislinn> not all of them, Mr M, although he has certainly exacerbated the epidemic [16:50] <Sophia40> Now Alan Rickman he is gooooooood [16:50] <fawkes28> an honorary member? aww you are too kind, danae [16:50] <fawkes28> i am not worthy [16:51] <WaggaWaggaWerewolf> Alan Rickman was also the voice for Marvin the melancholy robot in the Hitchhiker's guide to the galaxy [16:51] <fawkes28> i think it was a great essay because snape lovers and haters can all appreciate it [16:51] <danae24> I still dont see how someone would love a greasy haired git..... maybe after a bath someone would love him, but not before [16:51] <Joyhawk2121> lol [16:51] <Theoriser> What do you think of the methods of treating OSD (Obsessive Snape Disorder)? [16:51] <fawkes28> loved the snuppet [16:52] <JaneMarple9> sounds good - even if i not got to that bit yet laugh [16:52] <MrMcGonagall> Very sound from a psychiatric standpoint. [16:52] <Aislinn> I think the snuppet is a wonderful idea, as is the bucket of cold water! [16:52] <fawkes28> not too fond of the bucket - because i know many people that would love to do that to me [16:52] <MrMcGonagall> Very helpful to identify with the way female characters in the series perceive him. [16:52] <fawkes28> and several are in this chat right now [16:52] * MrMcGonagall throws a bucket of ice-cold water on fawkes. [16:52] <cbm> a bucket of ice water I think would do it [16:52] <danae24> hahahaha [16:53] <fawkes28> hardy har har [16:53] <WaggaWaggaWerewolf> Some days a bucket of ice cold water would be a pleasure. [16:53] <JaneMarple9> thats a little unfair even to snape - waste of ice water!! [16:53] <WaggaWaggaWerewolf> Yes, there's a drought on you know. [16:53] <cbm> not here [16:54] <Theoriser> Have you read the essay? If not, did you run to Scribbulus to read it after hearing this segment? [16:54] <Sophia40> I can hardly wait to see where Snape ends up [16:54] * MrMcGonagall uses DD's instant drying charm on fawkes. [16:54] <JaneMarple9> no not read it [16:54] <WaggaWaggaWerewolf> Well send some fo the water here please biggrin [16:54] <fawkes28> awww so sweet [16:54] <cbm> I read it after [16:54] <MrMcGonagall> I had already read it myself. [16:54] <Aislinn> the thread discussing the essay is as funny as the essay - people should check it out [16:54] <JaneMarple9> not read many scribblus essays [16:54] <WaggaWaggaWerewolf> Lunch time reading for sure. [16:54] <danae24> same here Jane [16:54] <fawkes28> yes, it was great people should read it [16:55] <fawkes28> the April's Food edition was great - go read the others too!

[16:56] <fawkes28> yes, and aren't you glad you did it, Mr. M? [16:57] <Aislinn> I look forward to comparing notes after the book comes out, to see who got what right [16:57] <danae24> me too!
