J.K. Rowling has made it clear that she intentionally put a lot of clues in it to foreshadow the upcoming books. There are quite some that I've spotted like Ron and Hermione suddenly holding hands out of nervousness.

Lately... there has been discussions sparking the possibilities of Hermione being a werewolf. In the new Harry Potter movie, the recent one that is. Do you recall the scene where Hermione responded to Snape's question regarding the differences between animaguses and werewolves?

She specifically said that werewolves respond only to their kind. Later into the movie when Hermione and Harry went back into time, Hermione howled to catch Lupin's attention which I did begin to wonder. Even though she didn't turn into a werewolf, but how could the werewolf had responded to Hermione's howling?

Also, I was puzzled why Hermione yelled, "I TRUSTED YOU!" directly to Lupin in the Shrieking Shack. That just grabbed my attention from the beginning, and I really tried to figure that one out.

I get the impression that... something is going on with Hermione that we don't know of. She cannot be a werewolf because she didn't turn into one while Lupin did in the movie, yet... she howled and he responded while they only respond to their kind. But could this be a clue that foreshadows something in the upcoming novel?

Also, the scene with Lupin and Harry on the bridge. Lupin spoke of Harry's mother, Lily. What he said wasn't in the novel, at least that I cannot recall. This could be another clue. We may find out something more about Lupin. Oh, and there's also one part that really gave me a clue regarding the remaining mirror of Sirius's... and that scene was where? In the divination classroom where Harry suddenly see Sirius's face in the crystal ball saying "Harry Potter! Harry Potter! Harry Potter!". There are probably more clues that we didn't catch, they were cleverly done.

Anybody noticed different clues in the movie? Anybody?
 
I don't know if Hermione will have to do with werewolves in the next upcoming book, so we won't hold breath. I think the reason Snape wanted to teach the class about animaguses and werewolves was just a way of hinting/warning that Lupin is a werewolf. But maybe we'll find out in the next book!

Lupin mentioned Harry's mother because he was a friend of Lily and James when they were younger. (The director couldn't fit in a scene or two showing Lily, James, Sirus, Lupin and Peter in their teens in the movie...but if he had, it could've help explain where the Maraudering Map comes from along with the names Padfoot, Prongs, Wormtail and Moony).

That's all I can think of.
 
And oh yes, the thing about Ron and Hermione....yes, there are PLENTY of clues concerning them. It is not hard to tell they are slowly but surely falling in love with each other. ;) Just look at how jealous Ron got when he saw Hermione dancing with the other guys in "Globet of Fire" even if he doesn't know why! XD
 
Hmm Hmm! NO! I don't think this is not a clue about happen. Shadowforesint is the clue into final 2 book. Because the Director ask JK Rowling that he want to create the film for Shadowforest. JK say no. Because it will be in next book. That is why she told us.
 
Hmm...now I'm curious about the new Harry Potter movie...

As for mentioning Lily by Lupin -- Lupin and James Potter were best of friends when they were students at Hogwarts and Lily was there as well...that's how he knew Lily. *shrugs*

Can hardly wait until the 5th book comes out.
 
You remember, rats with Ron's? So, he name is Peter P. I think? Peter was an escaping away. Now it will happen next 6th book. That what JK say us.
 
There is a small discovery that was made in the Chamber of Secrets novel that will take a big role in the sixth novel. I get the feeling that what happened in the Knockturn Alley will take a big part of the sixth novel. Do you recall the part where Peter had his hand chopped off to help Voldemort in the Goblet of Fire novel? Don't you recall reading something that may be relevant and helpful to Peter in the Chamber of Secret novel?

*hint, hint*
 
To add one more thing, the Knockturn Alley scene in the movie was almost cut out but JK Rowling made the director Chris Columbus keep it in... which gives me the impression that a small part in the Knockturn Alley scene is relevant to the sixth book.

The Knockturn Alley is featured in the second novel, Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets.
 
I know what you talk about book 2. But, I never this word heard before. I try to remember before. But, I understand now. I will see about that next 6th book. Anything clue?

Ditto. It made me wonder about both of them. Does Hermione have a feeling for Ron? I bet she does.

I believe she is a werewolf but she cannot turn into one due to her immaturity? After all, she is still young and growing. That is one of possibilities.

I cannot be sure on that one. I seem have to reread the novels then watch the movie to find the clue that you spoke of.

No doubt about it, we may see something happening between Ron and Hermione in the sixth book.

Who knows? It's possible. Though, freakish that I thought of it.

In the book, Harry and Lupin talked in his office instead of the bridge. The bridge wasn't in the book at all. Though, I have to say that there's something about that scene that is different from the book version.

Maybe because of visual reason in the movie? Or build a atmosphere that audiences can be related to?

Yes, that I've thought of. It was quite a nice scenery. :)
 
Yes, Harry Potter 3 movie was good scene. Because of Steve Kloves was very trying to do best as he can do. But, there is nothing wrong. Yes, there is few clues what was really happen. Director and JK Rowling sometime few weeks they come and conference about plan the Quidditch Match. I know many kids complain about it. Now, we happy about that. Director has to big faith of the Adaption of Harry Potter 3. That mean there some a little bit different than the book. Because JK say no about Shadowforesting, because I heard of her say will be final of the 2 books. That mean it will may be into 6th book or 7th book. It is big surprise. That is why I reason a big clue.

So, I heard that J.K Rowling will not going to be Peace Conference in Spain next July. Because it was rumor! Because it only what JK Rowling decide. Some other new report was rumor. We have to wait to see open the door when we get open. I can't wait!!! We find out.
