Harry Potter

So, I saw the movie and it rocked. All the bits I was worried about sucking didn't. Which was nice. I'd post a proper review except its three in the morning, so I'll just leave you with three short thoughts.

1) My inner feminist says, 'was Fleur that useless in the book? Why did the only girl in the tournament finish last in every competition? Yah boo sucks'

2) My inner fangirl (well, mebbe not so inner) says EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE SLASH SQUEEEEEE!

3) My footballslash brain says, hmmmm. If you had to feild an England Quidditch Team with the players taken from the England football squad, who'd play what positions? Should strikers play seekers or chasers? (Unless they're Wayne Rooney, when they should clearly play beaters). Also, I wonder if Denis Bergkamp would be scared of flying on a broom...

Answers on a postcard.

Yeah, but strikers are also (generally) the fastest, lightest players. Chasers need the skills of both strikers and midfeilders, cos they have to both gain posessesion of the ball / stop the other team from doing so, and also attack with the ball.

... I wonder if chasers tend to split into 'getting the ball', 'keeping the ball' and 'scoring with the ball' types.
