What's right with this picture?

[primroseburrows]

And it came to pass that El Director should gaze upon the head of Thomas, and see it crying out in torment under the heavy weight of petroleum product forced upon it by the One Who Ruled Before. And he reached out his mighty hand, saying "fly, be free!" And it came to pass, and all was right with the world.

YES!!!!

He's utterly adorible with it natural, anyway.

[primroseburrows.livejournal.com]

d00d, I've been praying for this.

Makes my week, it does.

[muffytaj.livejournal.com]

*laughs madly* It would make it so much easier for Tom...

[greenapricot.livejournal.com]

Yes, yes, as it should be. Can't wait for PoA.

Are there more Draco pics where this one came from? I will be eternally grateful if you could point me in that direction.

[primroseburrows.livejournal.com]

This one came from the Leaky Cauldron. It's the only Draco pic there so far.

[primroseburrows.livejournal.com]

I love it.

[ackonrad.livejournal.com]

The slicked-back hair is gone! Wee!

There's something strange, though - why is Draco the only one who's wearing robes?

[primroseburrows.livejournal.com]

Are those robes? I thought it was just a black-on-black number, which of course I only admire aesthetically, as Tom is jailbait far too young to notice any other way.

[muffytaj.livejournal.com]

Me too. He looks so much ... cooler! And apparently for this picture he actually insults Hermione herself, and if we get the slapping thing later on too...

And my little Hr/D shipper is going nuts!

[ackonrad.livejournal.com]

*stares*

*looks more carefully at the picture*

Er... Right. True. No robes. It still looks a little strange, though - it seems that the new Director doesn't like robes and uniforms...

[primroseburrows.livejournal.com]

Unless these are rehearsals, which is my biggest fear. But there's mud and dirt on Harry and Hermione in that other picture, and Hermione was wearing the same outfit. *hopes*

[ginzai.livejournal.com]

He is quite pretty with the hair down, and I've rather wished that the helmet head would go away for some time now, but which scene is that? Am I forgetting an important PoA bit? I remember no wand whipping on Hermione's part, but then it has been some time since I last read...

And wee ickle Tom is so tall now! He's bigger than Crabbe and Goyle even.

[moonlight69]

*CRIES* WHY CAN NO ONE SEE THE BEAUTY THAT IS GELLED-HAIR TOM?

*weeps bitterly at the loss of the gel* And I hope and PRAY that this is just a rehearsal of some sort, or all scenes from a Hogsmeade weekend, because if Cuaron has just suddenly up and gotten rid of uniforms, I will be LIVID.

*joins squeeing and whorshipping*

I think I'll have to make another gorgi parade picspam in honour of this pic. His hair! Hishairhishairhishair! It finally looks like something normal, I daresay a fanon!Draco's one! Squee!

When I said half a year ago that movie!Draco is so fanon!DRaco and no one believed me, I felt frustrated and misunderstood. Now! Lookie lookie! Eat your gel bottles, unfaithful Feltonists! I alone was right! He wears black and his hair looks good!

</ cut righteous fangirl anger>

Uhm...yeah...er, Prim, don't be alarmed. I get like this.

Oh goodness, this pic is going to make me impossible today, I already see it. :)

[loony-moony.livejournal.com]

Wah, I hope those weren't the rehearsals. I'd really want to see his hair like this in the movie. :(((((

[nahkasiipi.livejournal.com]

*laughs and joins in the worship*

[ladyguenivere.livejournal.com]

rofl, that was great!

(not sure about the pink jumper on Hermione. Seems too "girly" to me, but... *shrug*)

[quiridion.livejournal.com]

Hehehe. Yeah, thank fuck eh? All that gel was very 80s and not canon! Draco at all, I don't think. Now just replace Hermione with Harry and that would be one hot picture!!! :D

[sarahtales.livejournal.com]

WHY in the NAME OF GOD is my darling Draco looking like a whimpering sissy girl because *Hermione* is pointing a wand at him?
Don't get me wrong, Draco can whimpering-sissy-girl it with the best of them when it comes to Voldemort or Moody. He's never going to pull a hero-Harry-stunt on us, but I REFUSE to believe that he would pee his pants because bleeding heart, non pureblood, female, points mad, now apparently pink wearing Hermione pulled a wand on him. He has too much pride! He has too many goons!
That said, screw canon. *prays for her baby in jeans*

[sistermagpie.livejournal.com]

Hee! I'm glad I'm not the only person who had this reaction. It took me a while to see the hair, I was too busy saying, erm, what's with the tall boy pretending to be afraid of girl dressed like Kim Richards in Escape to Witch Mountain pointing a stick at him? Didn't this kid fight Harry in the last movie?

Don't get me wrong, Draco can get bashed up with the best of them and usually does. In fact it happens so often in canon I wonder why one would have to make up more ways for him to get humiliated for the movie. I can't help but imagine Tom in this scene trying to make sense of it as an actor. Maybe he's imagining that if he moves a muscle Hermione will hex the hair gel back into his hair.

That said, bring on the jeans, baby. I want to see some well-tailored Pureblood fashion on that boy.

[trempnvt.livejournal.com]

I AGREE WITH YOU 100% ABOUT THE GEL.

[primroseburrows.livejournal.com]

*calls ER opthamologist*

[primroseburrows.livejournal.com]

*phones El Director*

[primroseburrows.livejournal.com]

I couldn't see pass all the lovely soft hair to the fact that, yeah, he does seem to be a bit scared of Hermione. Still, he doesn't have his own wand raised (shut up, giggling fangirls. That wasn't a double entendre, because it's Hermione in the picture, not Harry), and he's probably pretty sure that Hermione's a whiz at Charms. And Draco's a scaredy-cat.

[moonlight69]

Hooray! I always knew there was a reason I loved you. ;)

*HUGS*

[mioknee.livejournal.com]

Yes, the hair is nice b..but...but...THE UNIFORMS! WHERE ARE THEY? That was the sexiest part! *is a crying heap*

[trempnvt.livejournal.com]

Hahaha...it is the rest of you who are blind, surely.

[trempnvt.livejournal.com]

*G* Yes, we rock.

[ginzai.livejournal.com]

But he's very prideful about it! *mutters about character regression in Order* Mou. Taking a girl's slap is different than cringing as she curses you, and we've yet to see any indication that Draco fears any magical spell. Anything that indicates fear with Draco has been restricted to magical creatures or Voldemort. Somehow I can't see him like that, even with Hermione's talented wand work.

the clothes

[artemis-folly.livejournal.com]

I can't recall from the books whether the students were required to wear their uniforms when they visited Hogsmeade, but perhaps in Cuaron's PoA, they get to wear "street" clothes.

[sarahtales.livejournal.com]

Yeah. No way. Bastards. Butchers of my baby. Character assassination!
Draco would never never cringe in front of Hermione. He's not *stupid.* He *knows* she wouldn't hurt him. And half of the boy's *problem* is his prickly touchy pride.
If Voldemort was in front of him, no problem with the cringing.
'Yes O Dark Lord! Your wish is my command! Ask me but to serve you and I will! Grovel, grovel, don't hurt me, oh god, when do I get out of here?'
But *Hermione*?
'Granger, your wand has your germs on it and that's icky. Try not to press me against a tree just because my new hairstyle overwhelms you with lust. Excitable, Mudbloods, aren't they?'
His somewhat confounded exit was the best victory Hermione could hope for, and it's canon.
THIS is ludicrous.
*fumes*
*pictures Draco in jeans to cleanse her mind*

[sistermagpie.livejournal.com]

Yup. It's not that Draco isn't a scaredy-cat because he is. JKR loves writing his scaredy-cat scenes. Yet even she has never written this for good reason. It's a weird thing for a boy--even this boy--to be doing. Harry and Ron both pull wands on him without getting this reaction.

Ironically, it's even more odd in Movie Canon, since CoS seemed to imply this kid was pretty familiar with being on the wrong end of Daddy's wand. I'd love to see him cringing like that before the Pimp Stick, but this is kinda...what's he that afraid of?

[ginzai.livejournal.com]

JKR does have something for showing fear, doesn't she? Prolly has to do with Gryffindor bravery, those who have it and those who do not. She did mention that she valued it the highest of all the House traits...

But yes, and in front of his friends no less. Admittingly, movie!Draco and movie!C&G seem to not know each other to a startling degree ('didn't know you could read' indeed!) but all the same, he's such a prideful wee thing that I can't see him be willing to loose face like this. Not to mention that this is a girl who has him at wand point, and Granger at that.

Perhaps she's just cast something that is to be CGIed in later? One can have remarkably odd facial expressions mid hex.

[primroseburrows.livejournal.com]

Don't call me Shirley.

[trempnvt.livejournal.com]

Well, I have no clever retort for that.
