[edit] Dumbledore's behavior

Dumbledore does not shake Harry violently. He is not as calm as in the book, but the only thing he does physically is place his hand on Harry's shoulder and hold him firmly. It is Harry who panics and backs away into the shelves.

As I watch the movie, Harry is standing in the dungeon, while Dumbledore rushes to him, holds him firmly with one hand, as you said, but pushes him towards a cabinet with instruments of sorts, and commences to shake him as he asks his questions. The article was correct. --Thrashmeister 23:35, 29 March 2006 (UTC)

I want to add that Dumbledore is shown shouting serveral times in the movie. I swear that there are some lines in the books who clearly say that Dumbledore wouldn't shout at the students because they respect him without that(I want to add a german proverb: Who shouts is wrong). --DocBrown 18:40, 15 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Clean-up!

This article is in need of desperate cleaning up! I did some tonight, but I don't have the patience to do anymore right now. They are minor things – tense, spacing, punctuation, more punctuation – but they add to the look of the article, which helps it look "authentic" or not.

Whoops, didn't sign this before. --Fbv65edel ^{(discuss | contribs)} 02:48, 28 March 2006 (UTC)

I actually propose that this article's format be changed to resemble the format of the Differences between book and film versions of Charlie and the Chocolate Factory article. I can start making a table of topics by tonight. --Fbv65edel ^{(discuss | contribs)} 15:37, 28 March 2006 (UTC)

Yeah, the way Charlie and the Choclate Facoty's differences are set up is good. I'd like to see it changed! Emily 20:01, 28 March 2006 (UTC)

And I meant that to say "Factory"... I could help add stuff to the table! I know stuff about the book and the movie! Just tell me what you'd like me to do. Emily 20:30, 28 March 2006 (UTC)

If anybody else is interested in helping, take a look at User:Fbv65edel/GoF Differences. --Fbv65edel ^{(discuss | contribs)} 03:10, 29 March 2006 (UTC)

Because nobody else voiced their opinions about this renovation, I replaced the present version of the page with what Emily and I have been working on. If this is not suited with approval, it can always be reverted. --Fbv65edel ^{(discuss | contribs)} 04:13, 30 March 2006 (UTC)

This new version of setting out the information is much better than the old one. I don't know if you have managed to integrate all the points in, but it is good. Sandpiper 00:57, 3 April 2006 (UTC)

We did our best to get everything in. If there was something extremely minor, it was left out. I double checked to make sure we had gotten everything though. Thanks! --Fbv65edel ^{(discuss | contribs)} 01:06, 3 April 2006 (UTC)

[edit] House-Elves

Would the two house-elves seen in the campsite scene be the ones scene directly after Harry, Ron, and Hermione get out of their tent? They didn't really look like house-elves to me, they looked more like dwarves or something. If that's not the part, then never mind. But I'd appreciate it if someone could point out when exactly the house-elves appear. --Thrashmeister 21:34, 22 April 2006 (UTC)

Sure. They appear before the crew gets into the tents -- right after the low-flying Quidditch fans, and after Hermione points to something and Ginny laughs. Hope that helps. It's really fast, so make sure you're watching in slo-mo. --Fbv65edel ^{(discuss | contribs)} 22:44, 22 April 2006 (UTC)

[edit] make sure you're watching in slo-mo

Goodness, original research anyone? We've got a guideline about this sort of thing, and if there is not an independant source for the things on this page they need removing. - 152.91.9.144 23:04, 30 November 2006 (UTC)
