Leos H/G: B/c Dan and Bonnie are both anxious to film HBP, could life be any better?!

Welcome to the official Leo thread everyone. Home of Harry James Potter and his beautiful bride to be Ginevra Molly Weasley.



Artwork by Nicole

We think Leo (the astrological sign of the lion) is a great representation of Harry and Ginny and here's why:
1) Both are Leos: Harry was born on July 31st and Ginny was born on Aug 11th
2) Both are Gryffindor (Lions) students and quidditch team members
3) Both have firery spirits that seem to compliment each other perfectly

If these don't say match made in heaven, then heaven must not exist.

What J.K. Rowling says about Harry and Ginny

JKR Q&A (pre-HBP)
(Red Nose Day Chat) Q: Will Harry ever notice the long-suffering Ginny Weasley?
JKR: You'll see... poor Ginny, eh?

(Dec, 2000 Time Magazine Interview) Q: And what about Ginny (Ron's younger sister?)
JKR: Poor Ginny, languishing in love for Harry, and he's merrily asking out other girls right under her nose! But that's just a boy thing."

(Online Chat 04/03/2004) Q: Do you plan for Ginny to take on a major character role in the next two books?
JKR: Well, now that Ginny has stopped being mute in Harry's presence I think you can see that she is a fairly forceful personality (and she always has been, remember Ron saying that she 'never shuts up' in Chamber of Secrets)?


TLC and Mugglenet's interview with JKR -July 16th, 2005
MA: Did Ginny send Harry the valentine?
JKR: Yeah, bless her.
MA: Was it a Tom Riddle thing, or Ginny Weasley?
JKR: No, Ginny Weasley.
MA: Well, she got paid back for it.
JKR: [laughs] Eventually.
MA: I think you set that up from the train compartment scene [in book one], where he was watching — all the relationships, that scene probably set it up.
JKR: I think so. I hope so. So you liked Harry/Ginny, did you, when it happened?
ES: We've been waiting for this for years!
JKR: Oh, I'm so glad.
MA: Oh my gosh, that kiss!
JKR: Yeah.
ES: It actually materialized!
JKR: It actually happened, I know! I felt a little bit like that.
MA: Had you been trying to get them —
JKR: Well I always knew that that was going to happen, that they were going to come together and then part.
ES: Were you always -----ing it? [We can’t figure out what Emerson actually said here.]
JKR: Well, no, not really, because the plan was, which I really hope I fulfilled, is that the reader, like Harry, would gradually discover Ginny as pretty much the ideal girl for Harry. She's tough, not in an unpleasant way, but she's gutsy. He needs to be with someone who can stand the demands of being with Harry Potter, because he's a scary boyfriend in a lot of ways. He's a marked man. I think she's funny, and I think that she's very warm and compassionate. These are all things that Harry requires in his ideal woman. But, I felt — and I'm talking years ago when all this was planned — initially, she's terrified by his image. I mean, he's a bit of a rock god to her when she sees him first, at 10 or 11, and he's this famous boy. So Ginny had to go through a journey as well. And rather like with Ron, I didn’t want Ginny to be the first girl that Harry ever kissed. That's something I meant to say, and it's kind of tied in.

One of the ways in which I tried to show that Harry has done a lot of growing up — in “Phoenix,” remember when Cho comes into the compartment, and he thinks, ‘I wish I could have been discovered sitting with better people,’ basically? He's with Luna and Neville. So literally the identical thing happens in “Prince,” and he's with Luna and Neville again, but this time, he has grown up, and as far as he's concerned he is with two of the coolest people on the train. They may not look that cool. Harry has really grown. And I feel that Ginny and Harry, in this book, they are total equals. They are worthy of each other. They've both gone through a big emotional journey, and they've really got over a lot of delusions, to use your word, together. So, I enjoyed writing that. I really like Ginny as a character.

Katie Leung ~ GOF premiere: "Well, I think Harry was supposed to be with Ginny all along, I mean, I knew from the start, so I don't want to break their relationship apart!"

Our Favourite HBP scene: Chapter 24
Harry looked around; there was Ginny running towards him; she had a hard, blazing look in her face as she threw her arms around him. And without thinking, without planning it, without worrying about the fact that fifty people were watching, Harry kissed her.
After several long moments – or it might have been half an hour – or possibly several sunlit days – they broke apart. The room had gone very quiet. Then several people wolf-whistled and there was an outbreak of nervous giggling. Harry looked over the top of Ginny's head to see Dean Thomas holding a shattered glass in his hands and Romilda Vane looking as though she might throw something. Hermione was beaming, but Harry's eyes sought Ron. At last he found him, still clutching the Cup and wearing an expression appropriate to having been clubbed over the head. For a fraction of a second they looked at each other, then Ron gave a tiny jerk of the head that Harry understood to mean, "Well – if you must."
The creature in his chest roaring in triumph, Harry grinned down at Ginny and gestured wordlessly out of the portrait hole. A long walk in the grounds seemed indicated, during which – if they had time – they might discuss the match.

Chapter 25
The fact that Harry Potter was going out with Ginny Weasley seemed to interest a great number of people, most of them girls, yet Harry found himself newly and happily impervious to gossip over the next few weeks. After all, it made a very nice change to be talked about because of something that was making him happier than he could remember being for a very long time, rather than because he had been involved in horrific scenes of Dark magic.
"You'd think people had better things to gossip about," said Ginny, as she sat on the common-room floor, leaning against Harry's legs and reading the Daily Prophet. "Three Dementor attacks in a week, and all Romilda Vane does is ask me if it's true you've got a Hippogriff tattooed across your chest."
Ron and Hermione both roared with laughter. Harry ignored them.
"What did you tell her?"
"I told her it's a Hungarian Horntail," said Ginny, turning a page of the newspaper idly. "Much more macho."
"Thanks," said Harry, grinning. "And what did you tell her Ron's got?"
"A Pygmy Puff, but I didn't say where."
Ron scowled as Hermione rolled around laughing.




Artwork by Marta

But Ron's tolerance was not to be tested much as they moved into June, for Harry and Ginny's time together was becoming increasingly restricted. Ginny's O.W.L.s were approaching and she was therefore forced to revise for hours into the night. On one such evening, when Ginny had retired to the library and Harry was sitting beside the window in the common room, supposedly finishing his Herbology homework but in reality reliving a particularly happy hour he had spent down by the lake with Ginny at lunch-time, Hermione dropped into the seat between him and Ron...

Yay, new thread. Love the title. I love how excited both of them are to film H/G! Especially Bonnie, as I always thought she seemed the more nervous of the two, so if she's excited, yay.

I see you changed icons, fez. To go with the newest spoilers?

You bet!

Spoiler:
I admit though I was beginning to worried how true they were since the poster over at IMdb hasn't said anything for two days. But, since we're hearing good things from another board too (the OBHWF comment you posted, EF) makes me believe we will get to see jealous!Ginny after all!

Good morning Leos!

Wow I wasn't expecting a new thread already. When I left yesterday afternoon we still had 20+ still to go. My goodness we move fast.

Great job on the thread title! And thanks Fez for starting the new thread.

So Bonnie's been quoted again in a teen mag called Twist. Nothing earth shattering new, but she does say that she, Katie and Emma and Evanna are all good friends and they hang out on the set and off.

There's also a quote from her about the action in OotP.

Quote:
"The scariest action scenes in Harry 5 take place in the Ministry of Magic. Spills Bonnie, "There were a lot of different stunts there. It was really intense and it's all in a spooky room. There's a scene where we fall thousands of feet - we were flying through the air!"
The scans of the mag are at dr.com

Don't you just love how now we've been getting a lot of Bonnie now that it's coming up for the film's release?

Shouldn't the CBBC questions be answered this month? And, the Trio's ones that I think were on Empire?

The thing Bonnie is quoted as talking about, do you think it's this?





If so, I've been extremely curious about that ever since the trailer.

Spoiler:
That person on IMDB said they fall into the veil room but it's never really explained why they fall and stop before hitting the ground. He/she speculated that it might've just been showing the veil room had a lot of power.


And yes, I'm so glad to see Bonnie being interviewed more. I love that she's close with Katie, Evanna and Emma!

Yeah, I think the falling scene is the one from those pics. Looking at the background it seems it's also the same room where we see the Sextet looking beat up and Harry holding the Prophecy.

Did you guys also notice Bonnie's picture in the DA image is circled (first page of the Twist magazine), something I didn't notice at first? Beside her circled face, there's a new quote. Again, nothing earth shattering new, but it definitely looks like they interviewed her at some point.

I noticed that! It seems that they might have just talked to Bonnie and Emma since they're the only ones quoted. Oh, and Rupert too!

They talked to Dan too, as he talks about the H/C kiss and wanting Harry to die. Unless there's more to the magazine (which is possible, dr.com may've just posted the Dan bits), it just seems to be those four. OBHWF, anyone? That's right - it doesn't take much for me to relate everything back to shipping.

Well, alot of the questions people asked were of H/G and the kissing scenes with Bonnie, so hopefully at least one of them will be chosen.

Gaaahhh! Is it weird that I'm starting to think Yates is a OBHWF shipper? I love that guy!
