With the film hitting theaters this Tuesday night at midnight, the Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince media blitz is coming to a close. And much like the actual book, the Half-Blood Prince press tour left us with almost as many questions as answers. For example, how does J.K. Rowling keep getting more and more attractive? Who, exactly, was dressing Jessie Cave (Lavender Brown)? Is Helena Bonham Carter magic in real life? And, now that they’re both legal, we’re even free to wonder which Gryffindor gal is most radiant: Emma Watson (Hermione Granger) or Bonnie Wright (Ginny Weasley)? We couldn’t answer the last one – you’ll have to fight that out in the comments – but we were able to break down some other questions and analyze them in easy-to-read chart form.
Accio Lesbian Scientistics! We also created a Dueling Matrix, by asking ourselves this question: If a duel broke out at a Harry Potter premiere, how would the Slytherins and Gryffindors defend themselves against one another? Who’s going to see Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince this week?
