Potter Worries

I saw a trailer for "Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire." Last month I finished re-reading the book, and it's pretty fresh in my mind. So in the preview, Ron and Harry have longish hair, kinda teeneagery. They also look a good 16 or 17, but in the book they're only 14. 14-year-olds can be pretty scrawny, and though Harry's above average in a few spots (quidditch, emerging alive from encounters with the most evil of all wizards in history), he's no giant jock or anything. Ron (actor Rupert Grint) meanwhile, has got himself this young hoodum look in the trailer.

The trailer set off a weird dream for me this morning. Can't remember its events, but I was dreaming a Harry Potter movie (I prefer the books, but who can resist seeing the movies?)

The movie opens late next month. We'll be in San Diego then for Thanksgiving, so I'm not going to drag everyone out just so I can put my curiosity to rest. But I'm waiting with baited breath for this movie. It's messing up my sleep--baited breath! Sleep apnea!
