I don't know, but I really liked Fleur in HBP. Especially in the end, she was so great about the Bill thing. Plus I loved her line. "I'm good looking enough for the both of us, I think!"

Go Fleur!

ImmortallyUsed · 06-23-2006, 04:27 PM

yay thanks for posting *hugs* i thought my thread would die!!!!

she is great i really love that line as well i didnt know what JK would do in that scene it could have gone either way!

86amanda86 · 06-23-2006, 11:29 PM

I know, I was so happy. You know, that whole time, we weren't sure if what they had was real, but when she says that, and that whole scene, we know it was.

SweetP · 06-24-2006, 08:17 PM

I agree!! I love Fleur, especially now that JK has made her not so much of a materialistic snob. I would love to be a Veela hehe...make boys mesmerized by my dancing hehe...sounds like a whole lot of fun.

Emms, If we ever do get a list can I please be added?

ImmortallyUsed · 06-25-2006, 02:03 AM

i think she was portrayed so different in the movie than in the books though you know!!!

although when she was competing in the TWT she was more serious and i suppose not as mature!!!

sure i will do a list now!! and i will make a banner

Edited: i just made a banner hope everyone likes it!!! if you want to be added to the list please let me know , if a mod sees this can they please change the title to "Veela's - A Fleur Delacour Appreciation Thread - Because we see her inner beauty!" pluese

SweetP · 06-25-2006, 03:29 AM

Yeah me too. That banner makes her look gorgeous! But in the movie I didn't think she was as gorgeous as she was supposed to be. Plus they didn't really show any of her little off hand, yet sharp remarks. I hope we get to see more of her in movie six and especially seven. Do you think Clémence Poésy would come back?

My name is Mandy btw...

ImmortallyUsed · 06-25-2006, 03:39 PM

i really hope Clemence does come back i would be so upset if she didnt!!! i think she is stunning and she would really suit the part! (well we already know she does)

but she may even be cut, considering she doesnt overly effect the storyline!!! *crosses fingers*

SweetP · 06-25-2006, 08:59 PM

Hmm...yes...sad but true. Maybe there'll be at least pictures at the beginning from the wedding or something? I mean, she has to be there when they are leaving before book six or something...I would definitely be sad not see her come back. She did a good job. Looking at some more icons I have of her she does look really pretty in them. I dunno, when I was researching her for an RPG the pictures I found weren't all that stunning or anything, but the ones out now definitely are, so I guess I have to say I really like her as Fleur now. lol...

Dreamsingr · 06-25-2006, 09:14 PM

Ooo Emms, can you add me to the list?

yeah it would be a real shame if she was cut but i do see it happening i mean they do it with all characters that dont really need to be mentioned!! im surprised she got such a big part in the last movie haha.
they will do anything to cut the movies which is a real shame!!

Chrissy i added you

thanks for coming around!!!

Dreamsingr · 06-25-2006, 09:25 PM
