I want to know how they are going to save harry, ron, hermione, luna, etc.... from the malfoy manner because they have left dobby out of all the movies except the second. It wouldn't make sense for the people who haven't read the books if an elf saved Harry after not seeing him for 5 years.

any ideas?
kreacher maybe?

I guess they could make it kreacher...or they just cut out Malfoy Manor altogether.

that's what i thought but then how would they explain Olivander and Griphook?

I was they would have waited until all of the Harry Potter books had been written so they could of took this kind of stuff into consideration like leaving Dobby in.

It upset me how Winky wasn't even in the forth. Sad

That would stink if they cut out the Malfoy Manor scene.

Spoiler:

We wouldn't get to see Pettigrew get killed.

Cutting out that scene would be horrible, not only would it

Spoiler:

cut out dobby dying, but also cut out harry taking control of the elder wand

I guess there is a lot thats important in that scene. so it will probably stay. heh they'll probably have Neville apparate in and save them all...I don't think he'll die at the end of it though because he still has to kill Nagini.

His death, itself, is just too violent. He's killed by a knife, not a wand; a frigging KNIFE and BLOOD and etc. The producers wouldn't want to live and see a 7-year old walk in then walk out with a permanent scar on his life.

a giant snake was killed when a sword was run through its head. I don't think they're going to balk at killing dobby with a knife stuck in him.

It wouldn't have as much effect though, seeing as he wasn't shown in the other movies except one of them. (at least for a person who hasn't read the book)

in the movie kreacher looks way to evil.

they made his eyes like gray so he looks blind and his ears almost touch the floor.

i know! i hate how ugly they made him (not like i expected him to be extremely cute or anything). its soo not what i pictured him to look like.

i think at the beginning of one of the chapters of the american versions of hp, although its either in the 5th or 6th book, or may even be in the 7th but i dont think so, there is a picture of kreacher with hair coming out of his ears and everything. but from that picture i had an image in my head of him looking like that

does anyone else kno the picture im talking about?

yes that ones it. and thats more of how i pictured him. the nose and ears in the movie were just way too long. but i actually pictured him more as a kind of meaner variation of dobby.

It'll just be confusing for people that haven't read the books, to have this character all of a sudden come back and lose his life.
I think as long as they put him in the HBP film it will make it somewhat clearer.

They did a lot of stupid things.. like who will know that Percy is disconnected from his family if they haven't read OotP?

^That's a good point about Percy, I'm preety sure they totally left it out, but I think they'll put Dobby in there anyways. Maybe they'll put him in the 6th, I don't really know, but I think he kind of has to be in the 7th or a lot of important parts would be cut.

In the last two books everything is relevant in some way, it's how we understand the plot or the characters actions and choices.

Someone on the board actually asked that recently. They hadn't read the books and asked why Ron's brother was just sort of standing there manhandling Harry and Cho without saying anything to them.
