I think she's really pretty. She definitely looks better in the movie than in photos of promotions and stuff.

Katie Leung is Scottish. Cho sounds Scottish. You can understand her fine.

"Sirius' head was sitting in the fire"

...

"Sirius looked different from Harry's memory of him. When they had said goodbye, Sirius' face had been gaunt and sunken, surrounded by a quantity of long, black, matted hair - but the hair was short and clean now, Sirius' face was fuller, and he looked younger..."

"Sirius looked at him, eyes full of concern"
etc. etc.

Clearly the movie is wrong.

Stfu.

How can you go from "large bearded egg" sitting in the middle of the flames to face made out of embers?

The book creates what you imagine, genius.

I think the movie Cho is pretty but not spectacularly, I was expecting drool worthy hotness:( . Fleur Delacour was a real dissaponitment- She's supposed to be the ultimate male fantasy and shes like a bony little rat! No offense. IMO Ron is the hottest of all the actors... he completely shits on Harry :p
ROFL!
But I think Fleur was probably the best of the lot... saddening isn't it? She reminded me a bit of Kirsten Dunst.

As for Cho, I watched the movie, and she looked kinda cute until her mouth opened at which point I instantly thought "OMG IT'S AN ASIAN POM!"...

EDIT: I'm (now) aware that she's Scottish.. to me, they are all "UK-accents" of some form.

Did any of you guys realise that the Patels were Indian? I know the names are blindingly obvious once you think about it, but for some reason I was under the impression all wizards/witches were white with Cho Chang being the only Hogwarter who wasn't... *feels stupid*

Quite easy. the "large bearded egg" doesnt have to be hovering in the flames. I imagined the head like the did in the movie (maybe a bit more of the head instead of just the face, but basically the same) with flames coming from around it and within it.

When it says "middle of the flames" it doesnt have to mean the middle if u were looking side-on but it could mean middle looking downwards.

NB: the movie lacked flames but it might have just made it more difficult to animate and see sirius.

I gotta admit there's more to life than saying that Cho Chang isn't that great, but I still stand by my.. I'm a bit disappointed they didn't get some outrageously cute asian girl.

I totally wasn't aware the that Patels were Indian till I saw the film.

Emma Watson, in my opinion, has really wonderful bone structure, and this is why she still looks good sans makeup. Without makeup, her features are really pretty, with makeup she's absolutely gorgrous.

I didn't think much of the girl who plays Cho in the movie, however these premiere shots are gorgeous. Asians in general don't look fantastic without makeup (less bone structure definition)... come on, HP makeup artist! Have a heart! Put some makeup on that girl! Even if it was just a hint of blush...!!! come on! *is a blusher addict*

In the Ball scene, fleur reminded me a bit of Kirsten as well (the couture was DIVINE! I wish they'd shown more closeups!!!)... again, very pretty bone structure but if they wanted her to be a total knockout, they should have put a bit more colour into her face (makeup again). I'm not saying Cho and Fleur needed to look like they were wearing masks, but they could easily have been made to look a bit better (and still natural) through makeup...

I expected Cho to look more delicate and slender (not saying Katie Leung is fat). Katie Leung is cute, but average looking and not suited to the role.
