Hogwarts 101: A primer for the 6th Harry Potter film

He didn't compete in the Quiditch World Cup, but was merely a spectator. Get it right.
I went to Korea in 2000 with the first Harry Potter book. Every kid in the class I was teaching had it in Korean.
Great fun stories.
This makes perfect sense in the books but its kind of hard to believe on screen. Poor Rupert Grint.
I don't think it's nerdy to point out that Harry didn't compete in the World Cup, it's something that anyone could point out, really. It's not an anvil-sized mistake, nor is it serious. It's average-sized and gave me (not to mention a lot of people, nerd or not) a good laugh.
On the other hand, I AM a freakish nerd about Harry Potter. I could start pointing out so many things that could be fixed in here, but I won't. Because that's when I start to scare people. :)
This is why I hate Harry Potter. I cannot believe how weird these people really are.

As a fan of the serious, however, I want to point out that at the beginning of the 6th movie only two months have passed since the events of the 5th, not a year. They had summer vacation between their 5th and 6th year of school. Second, Harry wasn't asked to play in the Quidditch World Cup.
Thanks for the article. I'm looking forward to the film!
