[edit] Cast list

Is it really necessary to have a cast list for on the movies' pages? We already have one on the main Harry Potter page for all the films.

As was seen when the Fat Lady was re-cast, the same actor might not play a character in all films. Actually it would probably be better if the cast list were moved off Harry Potter onto a separate page, say Harry Potter cast. --Phil | Talk 08:15, Jul 2, 2004 (UTC)

[edit] I wouldn't allow kids to watch this.

What was this movie rated, not for anybody under 14 or something like that? Did that limit its distribution? For a children's book adaptation, it was really scary and dark, paranoid and outright horroristic. I think the producers made the spider invasion too extreme and underestimated the power of aracnophobia in modern society. It felt almost like Doom3. 195.70.32.136 08:22, 3 March 2006 (UTC)

It was PG. But, y'know, the movie series IS following the story of the book series, so... Sorry if you disliked it, but it's just probably going to get darker as the series goes on. 65.191.82.234 00:34, 26 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Cat list

I think the list is useful. In the infobox it doesn't show who plays what and it's nice to be able to see that Snape is played by Rickman. So, I shortened the infobox because not that many people were the stars... they were big actors in the movie... but not the stars. Does that sound alright? gren グレン 04:52, 9 April 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Additional Trivia

I heard last night, two bits of trivia which I will include in the trivia section later today once I have re-watched the film to verify. 1) When Hagrid rescues Harry from Knockturn Alley if you look in one of the shop windows you can see a set of harry potter books on display. 2) When Harry enters Dumbledore's office, there is a portrait of Gandalf above the door off to the right. Like I said I'm going to watch the film again today to see if this is right and if so i'll add to article.

I'm anxious to see what you find! Emily (Funtrivia Freak) 01:21, 14 April 2006 (UTC)

[edit] A question

If Richard Harris died in October, why is he in parts of the movie that were made after his death?

It was not made after his death, he is in the movie, the shots were filmed before he died and there is a new actor in Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban (film). -- Cbrown1023 15:22, 9 September 2006 (UTC)
