The Search for Love in Manhattan

November 25, 2005

In the first scene of Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire, in which Hermione wakes him and Harry up after Harry's nightmare, Ron's shirt was from last summer's H&M collection, and I totally have it.

Now if only the rest of the movie had progressed like I wanted it to, and hunky Oliver Wood the former Gryffindor Quidditch captain had come back to visit, having discovered a few things about himself at wizard college that he wanted to share with Harry.

You need to rent your vids from a different store to get that kind of ending. ;-)

Yes, but then for the third challenge Harry would have to stumble upon the Weasley twins fininshing each other's Cedric in the Prefect's bathroom.

12 & 1/4 inches indeed.

On a semi-tangential note, H&M just opened its doors this week in SF amid such fanfare that I feel obliged to retire all the absurdly inexpensive and stylish clothes I got at "Oh, some European boutique in Berlin, I forget the name." Of course, having H&M stores in America ruins the allure of wearing H&M in America: that no one will ever know you paid six dollars for that shirt.

There is no need for me to say that I worship you. Now you're telling me that you also think Oliver Wood is a hunk! Please rethink being gay and give me a call. Look where it's got you, you're moving to Brookelyn for crying out loud!!!

Oh Cedric. Diggory me any time.

In my version, Oliver returns to show Harry the value of inter-house cooperation. He, Harry, and Cedric would learn important lessons about "teamwork" and "sharing." My version would also open with the Weasleys busing through the Dursley's boarded-up fireplace, but that's another complaint altogether.

Viktor Krum. NOW.

Those Durmstrang outfits. Woof.

8) Jalal said (on 11/27/05 at 01:07 PM):

It is true. All gay men do think alike.

9) Andy said (on 11/27/05 at 03:30 PM):

I would take Viktor Krum over Oliver Wood any day, unless I felt like being a top.

10) sam said (on 11/27/05 at 06:03 PM):

Yes, definitely Oliver Wood

Funny, I noticed Mr. Weasley's straw hat in that scene is ALSO from H+M and I HAVE IT.

12) Christopher said (on 11/28/05 at 06:00 PM):

Yeah, for me it's all about Cedric. According to the London Evening Standard he's the new Jude Law. I don't know about that. Jude Law looks like he has smelly feet, anyway.

13) KB said (on 11/29/05 at 02:59 PM):

Can't one have Krum, Cedric AND Oliver? Now that would indeed be magical...

14) josh said (on 12/ 1/05 at 12:59 AM):

dear jesus.

can like.

we not turn the books that my youngest sister reads into porno fantasies? :P

or at least wait until harry potter turns 18. mercy me.

15) Kenny said (on 12/ 1/05 at 05:39 PM):

Technically (according to the books), Krum, Oliver, and Cedric would all be over 18 by now, so they're fair game. Plus, isn't the age of consent younger in England?

16) dan said (on 12/ 3/05 at 08:43 PM):

I think Oliver Wood was worn out after his tryst in the owlery with the Durmstrang boys.

At least, in my version of the story, that's what happened.
