Fug File: Harry Potter

Fug or Fab: Emma Watson


Why, hello there, Emma Watson:

How coy you look. Coy, and potentially clad in your nightgown. Let’s take a closer look:

Fugpert Grint/Nice Save, Rupert Grint


RUPERT: Hey, everyone! What are we doing here, then?
EMMA: Unless you want to tell me I look like a young Ally Sheedy — which would be fine, because I kind of do, not that I am at ALL old enough to understand that reference — then I assume it’s not to talk about me, since that’s been covered already.
DAN: And I assume it’s not to talk about me, because I’m not wearing a giant cat on my t-shirt.
RUPERT: No, but your hair makes you look like a complete git.
EMMA: BOYS.
DAN: It’s okay, Emma. Rupert’s just working through his pain.
RUPERT: My pain, mate? 
DAN: See, he’s having trouble saying goodbye to the Harry Potter world, and up to and absolutely including Crookshanks.
EMMA: Hermione’s cat? Wasn’t he only in like two of the movies?
DAN: I’ve no idea. I’m in every single scene except about two. I can’t be expected to remember that.
RUPERT: You people are cracked. Maybe I just like cats. Maybe I just really wanted people not to talk in front of me, so I put a ruddy black cat on my t-shirt, and you DID walk in front of me, so you’re going to get seven years of bad luck and giant spiders and You-Know-Who nightmares and ten afternoons with Grawp and…
EMMA: It’s not REAL, Rupert. None of that is real. You’re not Ron. You aren’t even afraid of spiders.
RUPERT: And I’m not wearing a picture of a cat from the movies. Crookshanks isn’t a black cat, Hermione, everybody knows that.
EMMA: And my name isn’t Hermione.
RUPERT: Crap, it’s not Malfoy with the polyjuice potion, is it? Shall we Stun him, Harry?
DAN: It’s going to be okay, Rupert. Look, you cleaned up much nicer than this for the premiere:

Harry Potter and Deathly Fug


This post must begin with the usual caveat that I LOVE Bonnie Wright’s fabulous red hair, and I think she’s so pretty:

And it ends with the observation that I find it hard to believe that she couldn’t change out of her judicial robes before making it to her movie premiere, but any youngster who manages both a busy week of presiding over important legal issues on the bench AND an acting career deserves props.

Clemence Fugesy


I love that there is a camera crew in the background tagged for a publication called “UPBEAT,” because of how poor Fleur here seems so somber:
Sweet Fleur, I I know the Harry Potter movies are coming to an end, and that you were written out of a few of them. But that’s no reason to treat this movie premiere like you are an eight-year old girl who, unmoved at taking her First Communion and becoming a figurative bride of Christ, decided to honor the event by wearing the only funereal Laura Ashley dress in existence. Also, those rosettes have made a visual hamburger out of your breasts. If a short, masked man in a giant hat and prison stripes swoops past and grabs at your chest, maybe don’t call the cops on him — he’s only fulfilling his fast-food destiny.

Harry Potter and the Fugly Hallows


Don’t you wish you could get a glimpse into the collective mind of the Dementors* who apparently attended the Harry Potter premiere in London, here spied behind favorite Fug Nation wackadoo Helena Bonham Carter? NOW YOU CAN, thanks to my great skills at Dementor Legilimency. (Today must be so confusing for those of you who never read Harry Potter, to which I must say: you should probably read Harry Potter.)

*Some of you think these are Death Eater costumes and I suppose you are right? I always just think of the Death Eaters as being, you know, Lucius Malfoy running around sans mask. ANYWAY, feel free to mentally substitute DEATH EATER for Dementor as you see fit. And feel free to shun me, although I think I have been OBVIOUSLY placed under the Imperius Curse and FORCED to write it like this, therefore you should be kind:

DEMENTOR ONE: What the hell is up with Bellatrix Lestrange? Hoo boy, girlfriend looks like she did her hair with a Weed Wacker, am I right, or am I right? It’s not the ’80s anymore, sister!

DEMENTOR TWO: Keep it down! You know she’s nuts. I once saw her Avada Kedavra some dude who told her that the tag was sticking out of the back of her robes.

DEMENTOR ONE: She can’t hear me! We’re just reading each other’s minds, remember?

DEMENTOR TWO: We can do that? I don’t think that’s in the book.

DEMENTOR ONE: Um, DUH, how do you think we COMMMUNICATE? We got all into Sirius Black’s head when he was SLEEPING that one time, remember?

DEMENTOR TWO: Still. It seems uncouth to complain.

DEMENTOR ONE: You’re such a wet blanket, dude.

DEMENTOR TWO: I AM A DEMENTOR.

DEMENTOR ONE: But it’s a party! Can’t we just take a break from sucking out people’s souls to talk about OUTFITS?

DEMENTOR TWO; Okay, first of all, I would NEVER do that at a party. Why do you think I always try and wait until the victim is sadly walking down an abandoned tunnel, if I can help it? The answer: manners. But yes, unfortunate coiffure aside, I do like Her Ladyship’s dress.

DEMENTOR ONE:  So do I. It works on her. It’s just that she looks so BUMMED.

DEMENTOR TWO: I’m sure she just misses Lord Voldemort. Where have you been? It’s totally canonical subtext that she’s warm for his reptilian form.

DEMENTOR ONE: But Voldemort is too busy splitting his soul into multiple bits and trying to kill children to have a girlfriend, don’t you think?

DEMENTOR TWO: I suspect that you’re just not very romantic. Be that as it may, it’s not like he’s here anyway.

Fug or Fab: Emma Watson


First of all, OBVIOUSLY we here at GFY are all VERY excited for the new Harry Potter movie. We are, after all, the girls who scrutinize the Harry Potter merchandise page inside the Sky Mall and then note to one another that it’s ridiculous that the $75 Harry Potter replica wand is inaccurately sized. Although I feel that remains a very salient point: if you are the sort of person who will shell out $75 for a Harry Potter Replica Wand (I am not), I am certain that you are ALSO the sort of person who would want said wand to be of accurate dimensions, especially because wandlore is VERY IMPORTANT in the Potterverse. I was just going to write, “Don’t get me started,” but…too late. Anyway. Yay for Harry Potter, and onward to Emma Watson, whom we also adore, especially now she doesn’t act with her eyebrows as much as she used to:

The haircut is adorable, but let’s get real: If, like, Blake Lively had shown up wearing this it would be ice dancing jokes galore. I can’t decide if I think Emma approaches pulling this off because I love her, and because the rest of her look is so gamine that it tones down the FEATHERS MINI-SKIRTS VISIBLE BRA aspect, or if I’m just laboring under a delusion brought on by love — much like the time Ron Weasley accidentally ingested love potion and decided he could not get enough of Romilda Vane.

Let’s see what else she’s worn on this junket thus far (AKA, the day before):
