[refreshe]

She's okay.. and yeah how do you know what Cho Chang looks like

[aznxdreamer]

theres a drawing of her with harry in the 5th book-chapter: beetle at bay

[X serenity]

she's ok looking to me, but i thought cho chang was supposed to be prettier...

[refreshe]

Really? Well I can't check it out now cause I lost my book :angry:

[hybrid]

I know. I posted this before. She is pretty though.

[Kitsune_black666]

I think she's ok...let's see her acting abilities now. (But, i thought Cho was supposed to be much prettier?)

[xxANGExx]

I don't think she's so pretty. Has she acted anywhere else?

[angel-roh]

hmm...shes ok but not reallie pretty.. i think a pretty cho chang should be played in harry potter! LOL!! jk

wat do you mean you were meant to be cho chang?!?! ur an ACTRESS? man thts cool. i wonder how you look..to qualify for cho. the way JK rowling decribes her..she must be very pretty.
oh and ive read the fifth book and the chapter the beetle at the bay..tht lil small sketchy cart00n drawing of her and harry is pretty ugly. i mean she looks deformed in there no offense. but i think katie has the same long hair..chinese..about same height. so i think its okay!

[hybrid]

Well actually, Katie Leung is pretty sheckshii for a Cho Chang.

[BoAnJaNgNaRaRmIn...]

how do u kno wat cho chang looks like?...

i dont think the drawing was done by rowling anyway.. probably by the publishers... so dun get all worked up by it.. and if ur an actress then maybe u could PLAY AS cho chang.. but obviously ur not.

[hybrid]

how do u kno wat cho chang looks like?

The drawing a book. But when you read a book, don't you just picture people in your head doing what the book says they are doing?

[BOOGERSHAHA]

here's the cast for goblet of fire! reactions? opinions? frankly, i'm disappointed by fleur and cho. you can't really see katie leung very clearly in that picture, but i've seen others--she's not attractive to me at all. a lot of other asians i know were also extremely disappointed by katie as well.

and whats up with fleur? she doesn't look like a veela. meh.

edit: here's another picture of katie.


i, like every other asian girl, wanted to be cho.

[silver-rain]

Hah, yeah I think almost everyone I know is disappointed in the choice for Cho. I kinda dreamed about doing it, but I don't live in England and I'm not much of an actress. And yeah, Fleur doesn't really seem like what I expected (Isn't she supposed to have blonde hair or something?)...
Hah, what about Voldemort?
I can't wait till this movie comes out...

[Atobe_Keigo]

Ahahahaha! I'm Lord Voldemort! Ahahahaha! *is totally joking* xD
Grrr...They don't look pretty and I expected Fleur to have more of a white-ish color of hair...

[iheartjohn]

I thought Fleur was supposed to be pretty.

[HappyHeart]

Madame Maxime was supposed to be a giant! The old directors were better at casting new people for the movies. Did they even read the character descriptions?

[KissMe2408]

i love miranda Richardson, i'm sure she'll be great. But yes, i was disappointed when i saw the trailer and was like, "SHE is playing CHO?!?!?!" (Katie Lenng)...It totally she be Katie Mills up there! (me:) haha. but i seriously did want to try out for that part. And i'm sure every asian girl in the world did. I just couldn't fly all the way to London for an audition haha. I never would of gotten the part, but i did expect Cho to be very different.

[angelrevelation]

the igor karkaroff guy looks like a dead monk on the movies... (i saw the screen captures) totally unlike what i expected and i thought cho and fleur would be a lot prettier (and it would have been nice to be cho, but she breaks up with him lie 2 days later, so that's kinda useless ) and madame maxime is so ugly looking i thought she would be chubby like hagrid! and at least blonde like in the books! and i imagine moody to be totally different... practically like a moving wooden statue for some reason...

the crouches, cedric diggory and rita skeeter were good choices though

[xklipse]

I saw a pic of katie, I though she look kinda cute, not in the picture you show though. but yea, fleur doesn't look anything like i thought she would...she supoose to be a white-blond -.0 and alot prettier. cedric does look hot...

[ichiban]

ahh, i don't like the choices for cho, fleur, and diggory. cho just isn't what i expected, fleur doesn't look anything like a veela, and diggory's ... ugly. thought he was going to be drop dead handsome, but guess not.

[Aoiro]

For Cho, I thought of someone kind of younger, but a little bit older then young.
Confusing, yes.
But the actors are just...
Not what I wanted nor what I expected.

[*stephinika*]

eh...cho is okay. but yes you are right...i wanted to be her SOO BADLY! haha...ah well.
i'm still excited for the movie.

[jnukes]

Brenda Song should have been Cho .

thumbnails .





k i think that's enough pictures . lol .. daaaaammmmmn she's fineeeeeeeeeee .

[iheartjohn]

Brenda Song should have been Cho .

k i think that's enough pictures . lol .. daaaaammmmmn she's fineeeeeeeeeee .

She's cute in the face.

[Teesa]

Hmm..I agree with the Cho part. But she will probably look so much better on screen, so I think it will all fit :) Ooh, Rita Skeeter looks exactly the way I imagined her.

[toodlepops.]

For some reason, I didn't picture Moody to be that way.
omfg. Cedric looks hot.

[*RiC3xBoy*]

Brenda Song should have been Cho .

Yummy.

[queen]

i actually liked cho...

i was disappointed in how they made alastor moody look... and i don't mean the actor, just the costume... it's suppsoed to be a glass eye, not a plastic strap on -_-"

[b0st0ngrl]

I was VERY disspointed by Fluer and Rita. Fleur is supposed to be all tall and flowy and long silver hair and this girl looks too athletic to me. And Rita is just...I don't know. I just don't like the lady..

[HelplessCry]

YAHHH i know i thought fleur was suppose to be extremely pretty, and cho. grr i wish i was her lmao. and when i first saw the pictures i thought the person who played Cedric was actually suppose to be the other dude. oh poop forgot his name. Victor! that was it i thought the guy who is playing cedric, was actually playing Viktor Krum :S bad cast...they better be damn good actors...~!!

[Unfold]

brenda should have been cho

oh yea i also dreamt of being cho :]

[BOOGERSHAHA]

yeah come to think of it, brenda song would've been a much better cho. it's sad that she's american and not british/scottish or whatever.

[*torngemini*]

I was disappointed in fleur. I was expecting her to be GORGEOUS since she's supposed to be the girl that every guy kinda goes after coz she's villa. Or maybe they're using the whole villa thing as a way to compensate coz she's not as pretty? I dunno LOL

Cho is .... okay. That brenda song girl would have been wayyyyy better. She's so much more cuter!!!! I guess we'll see in the movie how this Cho does

[whooooshy]

i am dissappointed by cho, fleur, and cedric! i was thinking cho and fleur would be much more prettier and cedric to be more of a pretty-boy. but hopefully they'll still do good in the movie.

[Gigi]

Actually, I felt okay about the choice for Cho. Some people just don't look too great in pictures, and I think she's one of them. I saw her on some entertainment show in action, and she looked very pretty there.

And you know, I don't think Brenda Song is all that pretty either. Amazing what a bit of makeup can do, IMO. What ethnicity is she, anyway? Chinese? Viet? She just looks way too slutty to be Cho. And Cho's a Ravenclaw. Sorry.

Fleur's nostrils are awfully large.

[*jooleeah*]

Isn't Fleur supposed to be much prettier than her? Not to sound mean or anything...

I agree with Gigi, Cho's not supposed to be really gorgeous or anything. I'm okay with Katie Leung as Cho.

Cedric looks really hot.

Haha, every time I see the previews for HP4, I get all giddy and happy.

OH MAN. ONE MORE THING...

Daniel and Rupert are gettign to be really hot. I loovveeeee their hair.

[Rogue_Ewok]

I'm happy with the cast. I'm sure every single one of them are going to look fabulous on screen! I am starting to wonder about Voldemort though... He'd better not have a low voice... he better have a high voice like in the book.

[xklipse]

yeh, katie got that good girl look, I think she'll look better on screen, heard her dad is a millionair. I saw the harrypotter4 trailer...i want to see that movie soooo bad

[emazing]

I don't like Katie Leung acting as Cho Chang; they should've gotten somebody better, IMO.
The girl who plays Fleur Delacour is pretty, though. I only hope both can act well in the movie, when it comes out.

Madame Maxime was supposed to be a giant! The old directors were better at casting new people for the movies. Did they even read the character descriptions

She looks damn skinny to me.

[misoshiru]

katie...is very ugly.

[Gigi]

I don't think being a Giant necessarily means you're fat. I think it means you're just taller and larger, but proportionately larger.

Madame Maxime's facial features are kinda sloth-like, don't you think? Like, they're droopy. It's kinda how I imagined a giant's face to look like, y'know? Looks very sleepy. I think she'd do okay.

Oh, and I mean, most of the pictures here are pictures of the actors in real life, not in the movie. If you posted a picture of Hagrid as a real life person, without all that stage makeup/beard, etc, you'd all probably say he looked horrible as Hagrid. Same with Snape. Has anyone seen Love Actually? He's totally different in there.

The pictures sort of give an inaccurate impression of the cast.

[misoshiru]

snape was in love actually? O_O

[Gigi]

Yeah. Someone's boss, I think. Can't remember exactly.

[hall0w]

whose the poeple above? or i just forgot them

[*FreeStickers*]

I thought Fleur was supposed to be pretty.

That's what I was thinking.

Is Ralph Fiennes Voldemort?

[Rogue_Ewok]

katie...is very ugly

Why do you say that? Just because she's famous? She's just as pretty as anyone who posts here on this site.

Oh, and here is Professor Snape in Love Actually

[BOOGERSHAHA]

katie isn't very famous. this is her first acting gig. she had no experience whatsoever.

and that 2nd picture i posted of her was from the movie, i believe.

[PurchasedRebelli...]

Katie's actually very pretty.

http://www.livejournal.com/users/indilime/723154.html

[angel-roh]

Katie Leung is verrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrry Ugly.


Daniel is too good for her. lol.

"way too slutty" how can you even make that judgement about her? shes on the freaking disney channel. she's Thai-American and Hmong.

even though i don't find katie all that attractive, i think shes perfect for the part. c'mon BoA (korean popstar) even auditioned. although she has the looks, could you really imagine a fobby asian to play cho chang?

here are other pics of katie. i think she looks really cute with bangs


katie (cho chang) and robert (cedric) at londons dukes of hazard premiere

[ikn0w ur m0m]

gfsangn,sajkfhgas

Cho is sexy!

[PurchasedRebelli...]

And what is Brenda Strong anyways? I don't think she's British.

Harry Potter is an all BRITISH cast. No exceptions.

[*takingbacksandy*]

And what is Brenda Strong anyways?  I don't think she's British.

Harry Potter is an all BRITISH cast.  No exceptions.

i said it already in my previous post. shes thai and hmong.

[smartguy41490]

I know this doesn't have anything to do with the cast, but I'm really disappointed that John Williams wasn't signed on to doing the soundtrack. He composed some really great pieces for the movie. That's what I'm dissappointed about.

[*FreeStickers*]

Harry Potter is an all BRITISH cast.  No exceptions.

Fleur is supposed to be French, no?

[BOOGERSHAHA]

just a note to be said:

these are all opinions. i think katie is ugly. good for me. you think katie is pretty. good for you. haha seriously, i've done some google searching and have been trying to find a decent picture of her..and i haven't seen any yet. but i agree, rita skeeter is perfect.

[*RiC3xBoy*]

I know this doesn't have anything to do with the cast, but I'm really disappointed that John Williams wasn't signed on to doing the soundtrack.  He composed some really great pieces for the movie.  That's what I'm dissappointed about.

True True, but it seems that John Williams is in like every movie. I'd like to see some Frank Ticheli, Gary Gilroy, Carter Pann, or some John Mackey songs in movies.

[lisaaaaaaa]

i wanted to be cho chang.
like every other asian xD but katie doesn't look like a person that'd be cho chang

[HelplessCry]

WOAHHH BOA AUDITIONED!!!??? WHAT OMG I KNEW SOMETHING of the fact of boa cause when i looke dup katie leung pictures for the cast of harry potter i saw more BOA pictures then Katie. and one had a picture of katie but words with BOA on it? like umm okay i thought like katie was her step sister or something lol.
i can't believe BOA auditioned LMAO. for some reason i think thats funny i dont know why. and she didnt get the part makes it somewhat amusing. i mean i love BOA and everything but yeah her playing cho would seem odd. Katie looks fine for the part. im actually happy she got it. Because like many people say Katie is ugly, i dont think she really is. Them picking he ri think was for a good cause, you dont have to be pretty in order to get an acting career way to many shows and commercials advertise perfect people. i dont think there perfect at all. doesnt mean that there perfect inside... GO KATIEEE!!! can't wait for the movie

[mocassinsx29]

I think it's awful how people are totally tearing apart the Cho Chang actress. The poor girl lands a once-in-a-lifetime role and people hate her guts for it. Nasty people.

I do think Fleur is very pretty. What were you guys expecting, a 'perfect' girl? There is no such thing.

Holy crap. I don't know why but this post just seems... too unbelievably nice! O_O

[nerdxcore]

yesss. i can't wait! for the movie.

[PurchasedRebelli...]

Other than Fleur and Krum, the rest of the cast has to be British. Those two don't count because they're French and Bulgarian in the book. So of course they're going to cast French and Bulgarian actors.

[*torngemini*]

I don't know if I'm taking back what I said but I guess she is a pretty cute girl. It's just , I guess, pretty amazing what some makeup can do. LOL. I guess it all just depends on whether she does the role justice or not because we could bash her looks all we want but if she has talent then she's good with me

[*FreeStickers*]

So, there are exceptions. It isn't an ALL British cast. And also, people are able to fake British accents. I'm sure not everyone in the movie is actually British.

I think Katie looks more the role in the pictures that were posted later. She really is pretty, in my opinion.

thats true. it isn't all a british cast. sean biggerstaff (oliver wood).. wasn't he scottish?

[antix10_kos]

I'm disappointed by the casting for this movie. I'm still going to go see it though. It looks pretty tight, for real. I love the book so it's a no brainer....still, I'm really disappointed that Fleur isn't prettier. Fleur is supposed to be part veela. That means, very enchanting and beautiful. Someone that would make guys oogle unintentionally. The actress they cast for Fleur, well, she's plain. Nothing enchanting about her at all. And she's like 21, which isn't quite right, since they made sure to cast the rest of the actors around the ages of the characters they would be playing....Madame Maxime is disappointing as well. It's pretty clear, to me at least, that Madame is supposed to be a giant, like Hagrid. Madame is supposed to be quite large....but I think that overall, they did a good job of casting.

Another rumor I've heard is about Harry Potter 5. I've heard some talk of Kelly Osbourne playing Tonks in 5. I hope not, but it could happen...any thoughts on that??

[BOOGERSHAHA]

^ she's too fat to be tonks.

[silver-rain]

Hmm, well there's a new trailer out (http://movies.aol.com/movie_exclusive_harr...ter_goblet_clip) where you can at least see the actors. It's pretty interesting, and makes me want to see the movie even more.

[HappyHeart]

I don't think being a Giant necessarily means you're fat. I think it means you're just taller and larger, but proportionately larger.

That's what I meant. And maybe the fat part (a little bit)

Another rumor I've heard is about Harry Potter 5. I've heard some talk of Kelly Osbourne playing Tonks in 5. I hope not, but it could happen...any thoughts on that??

*throws up* I hope not! I like Tonks. I hate Kelly Osbourne. She might not even be able to act. Plus it's just a rumor. (I hope)

And what is Brenda Strong anyways?  I don't think she's British.

Brenda Song

[HappyHeart]

edit//

oh god, and kelly osbourne better NOT be tonks.
tonks is supposed to be skinny.

(that sounded superficial, but it's true. and kelly osbourne acts too drunk and idiotic.)

Her parents made her pee in a cup after they found out she'd done drugs.

[Gigi]

"way too slutty" how can you even make that judgement about her? shes on the freaking disney channel. she's Thai-American and Hmong.

Eh, I was judging on what I saw from her pictures, not from whatever she does. It doesn't really matter if she does Barney, she still looked slutty to me.

And can Cho Chang me a Thai or Hmong name anyway? I always thought that was Chinese. I'm not really familiar with the language so I'm not sure if that could be a name in those languages.

So if Cho Chang really was a Chinese name, and if the casters of Harry Potter really make such a big deal about Fleur being French, Viktor being Bulgarian and Oliver to be Scottish, then wouldn't they cast a Chinese girl as Cho, too? Not a Thai-American and Hmong girl?




And I find it hilarious that BoA tried out for it.

[BOOGERSHAHA]

http://www.tab-it.org/leung/gallery/albums...leunghi-res.jpg
^ Warning: High Res pic of Cho Chang.
I don't know why everyone is saying how ugly Katie Leung is. They obviously judged their first impressions on that paparazzi pic where Katie is obviously not ready for the picture.

haha actually i think she's still ugly in that picture her round face reminds me of a pancake. anyways the bottom line is, they could've had a much prettier girl, but oh well. i hope this katie girl will be a good actress. then again, she has like 5 lines in the 4th movie...

[xklipse]

Eh, I was judging on what I saw from her pictures, not from whatever she does. It doesn't really matter if she does Barney, she still looked slutty to me.

agreed. the thai-hmong girl is very pretty, but she does not match the part.
I read about Boa too, when the movie was still in the making, and we does not know what katie leung looked like, they have a pic of Boa and under it, it saids
'katie leung: cho chang'
i was like wtff?!

[Hell-Rell]

Cho and fluer should be fine as hell

[HelplessCry]

yeah i found that same one and got the same impression as you, at first i thought maybe they were sisters...or not...

[aznxdarkricex]

so much katie hate.

[ctytingyi92]

i think she's quite suittable for acting Cho Chang

[WHOngos144]

i think she's quite suittable for acting Cho Chang

haha this topic is hella old.

[*tweeak*]

Seriously, why is this back? The movies already been released months ago, so we all know perfectly well what she looks like. This should have gone in pictures, anyway. She was much prettier as Cho.

[voguelove]

she had a weird accent in the movie. it was a cross between brittish and something else.

[BOOGERSHAHA]

^ scottish, i think.

she could have been a lot prettier, but oh well.

[teeners4]

^ yea scottish accent she's from scotland!
well she's not that pretty but she's not "hella ugly" like some of you guys have been saying....
lots of asians dont look pretty in the entertainment industry. like sometimes i'd be like "i saw a hotter girl at the mall today" or something ya know? but i dont know maybe thats how asians are portrayed in the entertainment biz

[Paul M. is baaac...]

Enjoy being a regular old member without the MOD worries, you'll have to get used to it now. I'm really sorry if I come across sounding nasty, but I'm just saying, it's a MOD's job to decide when a topic is closed, so just chill out and enjoy NOT having to worry about MODy jobs.

Anyway, meh, i don't really like her, but I don't care, I hate Harry Potter books, and, to a certain extent, films (movies).

[*tweeak*]

shut up, you.

I got modded in the first place for knowing how to do things, and just because I've stepped down doesn't mean I've suddenly forgotten how to do things. I see little reason to not point out the blatantly obvious, especially since no one has done anything about it still.

[sadolakced acid]

Paul M. is baaack, you are very close to member bashing.

[*Blow_Don't_SUCK*]

I agree Lucy. You should've been Cho Chang.
