Hopefully they can
make the Gringotts break-in seem far less ridiculous in the movie thanYes, I can sympathise with that view, but it is a book about magic, and
it
was in the book...
Babs
how can you say "this is realistic" when you're on about magic ?
hahaha! Good point... However, there's a book about magic with some
realisic plots and then there's a book about magic with the breaking into
Gringotts plot...
Babs
Exactly. It must be realistic in confines of the book universe, not
ours. Harry can't just bippity boppity boo Hogwarts into a giant
robot. It's no realistic to the Potterverse.
Exactly - it must conform to its internal logic. Harry Hermione and Ron
aren't superheroes to repel spells or like giants who are big enough to
absorb them - they're as vulnerable as other witches or wizards so they need
to plan the break-in around that and succeed within their own
already-established limits. Which they do, although it is a bit of a
stretch...

Kind of funny (unintentionally) though. The great Gringotts, one of
the most secure places in the wizarding world, robbed by 3 teens and
an inside job Goblin. And they steal the Guard Dragon to boot.
Sounds like a comedy sketch send up of Gringotts security.
I suspect one of the basic assumptions in Gringotts' security was that you could never suborn a goblin, they'd just never turn traitor on their bank.
And it was a fairly good assumption - the only problem was the inside-job goblin went a bit further than the remaining security could cope with, dragon included :)

looking forward to the dragon escape scene as long as the CGI's as good as the hippogriff scene in PoA, and that it doesn't go on for *too* long at the expense of the story!
