Hedwigs plot changed?!

Image and video hosting by TinyPic

WB confirmed that Hedwigs departure will be different.

The image depicting Harry letting Hedwig fly away included the following description from WB: "Everyone mounts up and leaves Privet Drive. Harry says goodbye to Hedwig." So this does confirm that Harry lets Hedwig go prior to his departure.

Some MuggleNet readers are saying a leaked copy of the script reveals that Hedwig flies back to save Harry during the Seven Potter fights, and THEN she gets killed as she protects Harry.

this is news, don't be jelly

THIS FOREVER
[info]dropofmoon117 17th-Aug-2010 05:00 pm (UTC)
I'd like to remind you that several of the most infuriating plot changes in OOTP and HBP were Yates doing and not Kloves. Including the burrow burning down and all that Cho Chang BS. I wouldn't be surprised if this is Yates doing either.
[info]iluvdykes 17th-Aug-2010 05:05 pm (UTC)
Yeah, I never understood the burning of the burrow down. And this. Why? Why are they messing with us?

WWDYD?

fuck it all up!
[info]draconifers 17th-Aug-2010 05:10 pm (UTC)
and some of the most infuriating plot and character changes in PoA were due to Kloves. these changes STILL EXIST IN THE MOVIES NOW. so screw him.
[info]lacey_menacey 17th-Aug-2010 05:26 pm (UTC)
Damn him.
[info]sunshinefun27 17th-Aug-2010 06:59 pm (UTC)
i know. i was really hope for a new director for the last two bc he makes them boring and adds too much crap
[info]gary_sinise_fan 17th-Aug-2010 05:08 pm (UTC)
DO YOU REALLY WANNA WATCH HEDWIG DIE CAPTAIN WINTERS!? DO YOU!?!?








I'd probably ball my eyes out in the theater if I did :'(

[info]gettyupcowboy 17th-Aug-2010 04:40 pm (UTC)
What's the point of that? She's dying anyway, so why not do it the original way?
[info]soma910 17th-Aug-2010 04:42 pm (UTC)
It would be more dramatic for a movie. In the book, Hedwig was sulking because Harry made her stay in a cage for a while, and that's hard to translate over to film, I guess. Not that I'm defending the change. -_-
[info]boe_moi 17th-Aug-2010 04:42 pm (UTC)
MTE.
[info]srparker328 17th-Aug-2010 04:46 pm (UTC)
they probably want to make hedwig look braver~ or some shit, like they did with hermione's character at unnecessary times.
[info]saramiskismet 17th-Aug-2010 04:51 pm (UTC)
I don't think comparing the personality of an owl to the personality of Hermione is... well, equal.

SO DUMB.
[info]xxxquothxxx 17th-Aug-2010 04:41 pm (UTC)
so we get a moment of 'yay hedgwig lives~~~'
and then the soul crushing moment where she comes back and dies.
stabbing the knife in deep there ;__;
[info]senkig 17th-Aug-2010 04:43 pm (UTC)
IT'S NOT CANON THEREFORE I DON'T GIVE A FUCK
THE ONLY NON-CANON SHIT I APPROVE OF IS ALFONSO CUARON MAKING THEM DRESS IN MODERN CLOTHES

THIS IS WHY I DON'T WATCH THESE MOVIES
[info]simplychristina 18th-Aug-2010 12:14 am (UTC)
Ugh, that was a HORRIBLE decision. It helped take a certain sense of 'magic' out of the movie to have them dress like that.
[info]formatura 18th-Aug-2010 10:38 pm (UTC)
NO. The hp series takes place in the 90's so if they were going to 'modernize' their clothes, they should have at least made them more to the moment. (Although, ~grunge~ would have been such a horrible look!)

what the fuck?! why do they feel the need to change everything, just because?

STEVE KLOVES IS A DICK
[info]enslaved_cullen 17th-Aug-2010 05:00 pm (UTC)
tbh, the movie that i hated the most was the movie he didn't write the script for =/
[info]magnolianight 17th-Aug-2010 05:04 pm (UTC)
I still don't get why they had The Burrow burn down in HBP
[info]nb2000 17th-Aug-2010 04:41 pm (UTC)
NGL I had to stop for five minutes after she died in the books.

If only I'd known what was still to come :(
[info]lindsey11387 17th-Aug-2010 04:44 pm (UTC)
It was spoiled for me, but it was still shocking. My mom burst into tears when she read it. I thought she was hurt so I ran to the living room and she was like "Hedwig NOOOOOO".
[info]senkig 17th-Aug-2010 04:46 pm (UTC)
Dobby dying almost made me stop reading after I started at midnight. I seriously couldn't stop crying for like ten minutes.
[info]ovo_kinder 17th-Aug-2010 05:45 pm (UTC)
Mte. His death was the saddest thing ever.
[info]la_petite_singe 17th-Aug-2010 06:51 pm (UTC)
Dude, you don't know the half of it--I'd done a midnight party at Borders (of course), and the kid who won the costume contest was a little boy dressed as Dobby. HE WAS LITERALLY WEARING A PILLOWCASE. AND PANTYHOSE ON HIS HEAD. AND THEN DOBBY DIED.

I have lost sleep thinking about all the therapy that kid's gonna need.
[info]mamunia 17th-Aug-2010 08:40 pm (UTC)
i hate dobby. sorry.
[info]ree7aan 17th-Aug-2010 08:54 pm (UTC)
that whole scene is so painful.
his death, then harry digging his grave without magic and then the little funeral...
its never going to stop being heartbreaking.
[info]srparker328 17th-Aug-2010 04:48 pm (UTC)
lol, when ron left, i stopped reading. and the next morning, i skimmed to the pages where he came back and forced myself to read the incredibly boring chapters without him.
[info]lightbird777 17th-Aug-2010 04:49 pm (UTC)
Yeah, I was really really upset when Hedwig died. And that was only the beginning.
[info]fluxxie 17th-Aug-2010 04:50 pm (UTC)
I did, too :(
[info]magnolianight 17th-Aug-2010 05:05 pm (UTC)
I knew it would happen, but I didn't realize that fast. :(
[info]tundrabeast 17th-Aug-2010 05:28 pm (UTC)
Not one of the other deaths hurt as much!
[info]chiigusa 17th-Aug-2010 05:42 pm (UTC)
Seriously! I was like, 50 pages in and you kill Hedwig, wtf. I didn't even care about poor Moody at that point. I was too upset about Hedwig.
[info]cekhmet 17th-Aug-2010 06:18 pm (UTC)
Me too. I didn't expect it at all, and she was such a symbol of childhood for Harry ( and me D: ). ughhh.
[info]surrealistes 17th-Aug-2010 07:12 pm (UTC)
i seriously can't remember the last time i cried so hard and so long since i read that book. and i'm not even a particularly big hp fan. it just felt like people from my childhood were dying ;__;
[info]stellar_kar 17th-Aug-2010 07:21 pm (UTC)
aw me too, the only time that actually happened to me in the whole series. I just wasn't expecting it.
[info]hearts_erised 17th-Aug-2010 07:39 pm (UTC)
Snape's death was the absolute worst for me. He had been my favorite character since book 1 and I don't think I've ever cried that hard in my life.
[info]clau019 17th-Aug-2010 08:52 pm (UTC)
I hear you.
[info]glass_houses 18th-Aug-2010 02:42 am (UTC)
I had already been crying for hours bb
[info]azrielen 17th-Aug-2010 04:41 pm (UTC)
Well, if she still has to die, at least it'll be a more noble/heroic death?
[info]amalgamade 17th-Aug-2010 04:43 pm (UTC)
meh, hedwig has been HOIC since day one. dying in a cage vs. dying while saving harry doesn't matter imo lol.
[info]chiigusa 17th-Aug-2010 05:43 pm (UTC)
lolling at HOIC

omg, HOIC needs to be a new icon...
[info]ferfi 17th-Aug-2010 04:41 pm (UTC)
i really wish she didn't kill off hedwig. i love owls.
[info]lightbird777 17th-Aug-2010 04:50 pm (UTC)
MTE. I was upset when Hedwig died.
[info]fullycompletely 17th-Aug-2010 04:54 pm (UTC)
Me too. The only reason I could think that she did it was because they couldn't be hiding out with Hedwig. But Crookshanks got to go to Australia with Hermione's parents, so wtf, why couldn't Hedwig have gone to live with ... 'kay, well, basically the whole wizarding world was in danger ... idk my bff Mrs. Figgs?
[info]magnolianight 17th-Aug-2010 05:07 pm (UTC)
Figgy would have loved Hedwig. ;_;
[info]ferfi 17th-Aug-2010 05:42 pm (UTC)
Mrs. Figgs totally would have watched Hedwig.
[info]selenia_actimel 17th-Aug-2010 06:10 pm (UTC)
I think she did it to symbolize that turning point where youth and carefree times were over. I was floored when I read it, had to stop a bit to come to terms with it and really felt that there was no way back, Harry's childhood was over. I think that's what she was going for, and it completely worked for me.
[info]kingsmere 17th-Aug-2010 06:15 pm (UTC)
Didn't Crookshanks stay at the Burrow?
[info]tundrabeast 17th-Aug-2010 07:41 pm (UTC)
Hedwig was a representation of the happy bits of harry's childhood/prepubescence imho. I thought it was fitting.
[info]vangogh_ourears 17th-Aug-2010 05:38 pm (UTC)
i liked owls until i started working to rehabilitate some injured barn owls..and one charged at me like i was its food. little bastard

WHAT???? Ugh. I assumed this would happen when I saw this picture. Stupid Kloves.

Also, leaked script? Was this the one someone left in a bar?
