Didn’t they say the 5B premiere was two hours long, or that they were planning that? No? I feel like I heard or read that in one of their interviews at Comic Con or D23 or something like that…. #CouldBeWrongThough

That is a very Slytherin thing to do. And it is mentioned and shown that plenty of “pure-bloods” are actually just marking out their family tree, so I am sure the whole blood status thing is not THAT important when selecting Slytherins. In the event others find out, it’s not like they can do much. You can’t uns-sort somebody. Can’t pick another house. Honestly, I wouldn’t be surprised if the muggle-born Slytherins have made their own little clique.
As it is, we only get Harry’s/Ron’s view of Slytherin. The book seems very biased towards Gryffindor’s point of view since that is the house the main heroes are in. We also don’t get many named Slytherin. We have the likes of Draco Malfoy, Crabbe, Goyle and a few others. It’s almost as if a few bad apples are seen as representative of their house. Not only that, but the only times we really see the Slytherins is when they are in conflict with our heroes which in turn automatically paints them in a negative light as the villains
Interesting. But is that because the point of view of the main character…or because Slytherins are just generally unsavory people.
Wow. That sounds mean and prejudice. But yeah, no, looking at the qualities of a slytherin as opposed to the qualities of all the other houses, its quite easy to see how the majority of them or the average slytherin might not be the most benevolent, fair, “good” person. Am I wrong in thinkin that? Now of course, I am not saying there are not good Slytherins. But I think the majority of them are not people who we would want as our bestfriends.
*Ironically…..my bestfriend was sorted proudly into Slytherin on Pottermore. Lol.
This is actually a question I have and have raised in the past: does the Slytherin reputation stem from *just* the recent past or has it been the house of ill repute (so to speak) since the beginning? I mean, Godric Gryffindor and the other two seem to have no qualm about setting up an entire school with Salazar Slytherin.
I think it has always been like that, personally. Doesn’t Hagrid say something like: “There isn’t a wizard or witch who went bad who wasn’t from Slytherin” so it’s not like Voldemort was the only bad apple of the group. It would seem the history of slytherins being bad goes back way far. And judging from what we learn in CoS, Slytherin and the others probably didn’t have problems until after they had built the school to which Slytherin left when they disagreed with him about teaching only purebloods. And not just left. But left a MONSTER inside the school to kill MUGGLE BORNS. And this is known to all the other houses as a legend! So, yeah, I think Slytherin has just always had a bad reputation for centuries.

Nah, I don’t think so. The one in the pic with Merida looks like it has flowers on the side.

Seeing as this is a show that really deconstructs fairytales. I think the best way to handle it would be to actually have Henry think he is in love with her, the classic love at first sight thing very prominent in fairytales, and then completely turn it upside down and show why such a thing is crazy and absurd.
Frozen did it.

Hmmm. I think they will write her in a way that you wouldn’t have needed to see the film in order to get it. Just thinking back to how they handled the little mermaid, it was pretty much all stated and shown for the audience that you didn’t really need prior knowledge. Same with Frozen. They basically explained everything that needed to be said (that Rock Trolls are good with memory magic, for example, and that they helped the sisters when they were young. If you hadn’t saw the movie, it was stated in the show.) So. Yeah. I think those who haven’t seen it will be fine.

Don’t trust her…… And what are they keeping secret? If she’s an original character they could already tell us she’s from Camelot or her name or whatever.
He doesn’t even have a friend his own age–boy or girl!
Merida has three bros right? That would have been cool. Henry getting into trouble with the Brave Bros.

Well Lancelot and Charming met in the past. And didn’t they say Snowing with to a ball with Arthur? So it could be a flashback…. Or it could be present day. *shrug*

Yes. In-story, Evvie left the party…to go sing a song…..that she’d already sang…. by herself >___>

He’s a coward. She’s BRAVE. See what I did there.

Looking into Mor’du’s backstory, I am theorizing that he might have been the first Dark One. I am placing cookies on that one, guys. Also Mor’du sounds similar-ish to Morgana, Morgause, and Mordred. I wonder…..
