Well, I'll be working at a hospital. Granted, I'll be a cafeteria lady lol, but I'll be getting 40+ hours a week starting $9.50 an hour. Very Happy

Back on topic, Tales of Beedle the Bard - can't wait. Razz

I know. I'm so excited. When we don't have the novels to look forward to it's great to have a small book like this - which we never expected to see in 'real life' - to look forward to. The Christmas present of the year.. Very Happy

Too bad there won't be many more "small surprises" like this. In the next three years, Harry Potter will be over. Unless of course, Jo FINALLY writes that Encyclopedia.

that would just be awesome. I hope she does, though nothing has been confirmed.
It would be great to get an encyclopedia like that. Sorta of final close-off to the series with all the stuff that didn't make it to the books and other background stories we don't know of yet, and maybe even some stuff that happened in between the nineteen years before the epilouge.

I hope all the weddings and the funerals happen in it. What would really make me clap in approval is if Jo tells us about how Neville and Luna were, in fact, in love and just kind of "fell" out of it because they were at different points in their careers and what not. Wink

If Yates wants to change anything in the last movie, he should get Neville and Luna together.

I'd be happy with a few Neville/Luna hints.

Maybe. However, I don't know if Jo would approve of that. She never saw those two together, she said so in an interview. Despite the many people who saw them like that in the fifth movie, she never saw it.

I wonder if she approved of all the changes in OotP?

Btw, Gin, awesome poster thingy! I can't wait for it to be out!

Yeah, because there where quite a bit. Thinking back there where even more in the third film I think. The time-lines and what happens in what order where completely different in the movie from the book. I think so at least.


I know. I'm so looking forward to December for Beedle Bard. I'm so excited. Very Happy Happy to look forward to the book, but not looking too much forward to the many hours I have to work in December.

If she approved all the changes in OotP, I will seriously wonder why???

She didn't approve all the changes, she actually told them they should go back and add in Kreacher. But please, there are threads about this in the OotP movie sections where we can discuss this. Let's stay on topic in here, please?

Right. December 4th is when it's released, yeah? Well, maybe the book and the movie should switch release dates or something. That'd be pretty cool; keep the fans happy.
