Looks like the new Harry Potter films are going to drop Rita Skeeter. I really think this is a mistake as the character really adds to the film. Miranda was making a really good job of outlining the character but it seems she's now surplus to requirements. A very bad decision I'd say!

This doesn't really bother me. I think I've said it before, but my love of Harry Potter is greater than Miranda. Rita really isn't that vital, so I don't mind her absence. The only time I really wish she was in the movies was the "little miss prissy" scene in the 5th, but they didn't have it.

I was annoyed they cut her out but as long as Mirandas happy with what she's doing that's all that counts. Though cutting her was a big mistake because lots of people love Rita. And having her in the 5th film would have been so awesome. I mean I dunno why but the fifth isn't my favourite. Though I love Bellatrix one because she is played by Helena and two because well she's just awesome. But if Miranda's happy and just enjoying life then all's good  |

Well I can't say that I'm surprised,as the fifth film completely left her out even though her part in the book was pretty big.
Too bad really, I don't like the Harry Potter films much and seeing her there would have made them a whole lot better,even if only for a couple of minutes. Luckily,I'm also a huge fan of Bellatrix/Helena Bonham Carter,so I'll survive anyway,but having Manda in there too would have been great.

Post by Rita, Oh Yes! on Apr 3, 2008 22:53:31 GMT 9.5
In the 6th book, she's nothing more but an extra anyway. Turns up at Dumbledore's funeral with a notebook. She had a significant role in book 5, but they didn't include her because they cut out the bit of story that would have made her appearance make sense in the GoF film.
It doesn't bother me terribly. My hope is that they will eventually release a 3635353 disc box set of all the films with 46 hours of bonus footage from all the films, and there will be some extra GoF Rita in that.

That would be awesome, I want them to do that with Sleepy Hollow. So we could see all her takes, cause Tim said she did everyone of them different.

Haha yeah ;D
Too bad his movies never have bloopers.
And too bad those Harry Potter guys always cut out my faves more or less! Oh well. What did I expect. Long books turned into "normal length" movies,it was stupid of me to expect anything at all.

Dunno why they cut any Rita bits a few more minutes wouldn't hurt. It's long enough already why not add a few more minutes.
I'd love bloopers of Sleepy Hollow, she said once she has to try not to laugh during serious bits. I could see her pulling a face or something during a take. Like before a take or something Miranda raised her eyebrows while behind Katrina and the girl looked round smiling. Was class.

I know! And yet they cut her out! I'd crucio them all if only I could lol.
Haha yeah,I remember her saying that. I'm exactly the same. When I roleplay with my sister,I'm always the one who ruins the "take" lol. But I've learned to handle it quite well now.

That's my secret dream and my goal. To be in a film of some sort. It doesn't have to be a blockbuster that would make me rich,like Manda says,I'd rather do small TV films and series.
Yep that's what I'd like to fight for,only nobody knows it yet. I don't know how they would react,that's why I haven't told them.

I really wouldn't care if I got paid to be honest. It's just what I want to do and if I didn't get paid as long as I could live I'd be happy.
