Harry Potter is stalking me

May 22, 2009 18:16

HP is popping up everywhere. I've been spending way too much time on the backlog of HMS STFU reading badfic (and it's affecting my brain, I really need to stop, but I keep going back when I'm bored instead of doing something useful.) Then I see HP fanfic on my friendslist, then I go to Newsarama and see a clip from HBP!

Poor Ron's a bit flanderized as usual (stealing Harry's food...though admittedly, he did do that in the first book while Harry was unconcious, so I guess that's not too much of a leap. But you know, they always make him out to be a goofball idiot in the movies more than he is in the books, poor guy, so I suppose my expectations are affecting my reading of the scene) and I always find it weird how Harry and Ron act a lot less close in the movies- but I'm very pleased to see this scene will be kept in, and it's hilarious . Especially Rupert/Ron getting really close to Dan/Harry and all lovestruck and Harry getting off the bed uncomfortably.

Though I did want to see flailylovepotion!Ron punch Harry for insulting Romilda like in the books. Mostly for Harry's WTF? reaction which would be priceless onscreen. But I'll have to settle for pillow throwing, it seems.

In other news, someone commented on my wiki that TD commented on the lack of Spoiler in BotC, (hopefully noyt offended I called Tony a liar as that was tongue in cheek)

Tony Daniel said in the comment section on his blog that Spoiler was originally suppose to be in Battle For The Cowl but editors took her out because they did not want to step on what Fabian was doing in Gotham Gazette. Tony says that he really likes Spoiler. You can find this in the comment section under Batman 688 cover. Tony's blog address in tonydaniel.blogspot.com.--

Once again, you ruin my life, Nicieza! Not really, I have no desire for Steph to be involved in that mess. You know it just would have been a silent cameo anyway, like with Cass.

*I go looking*

Because of the tie-in planning, I was asked to leave her out so someone else could use her. I'm not sure what happened after that. I like Spoiler. I was able to fill the void with Squire though.

Squire was a stand in for Spoiler! I KNEW IT! That explains Tim's weird comments about her. Replace one blonde for another, eh, Timmy?

Damn it, we could've seen Steph rescue Tim for once! (And get shoved aside by Damian, but win some, lose some) DAMN YOU NICIEZA! *shakes fists at sky*

Okay, maybe not that dramatic.

Switching gears at light speed, I feel like writing HP fanfic. I think I'll do some HBP missing moments after I finish rereading it, it's what I originally wanted to do when it first came out....
