Me, too. I remember the quote (i think), but not who said it... Was it George? (If not Fred, that is.  )
I agree with Eruwae about how the twins are portrayed in the books versus the movies. I think the movies did a good job of characterizing them, tho. They've put in some wonderful moments that weren't in the books--like the dance lesson scene, for instance. (You know you're obsessed with HP--or maybe with a couple of his best friend's older brothers, perhaps--if you've tried to actually say "babbling bumbling band of babboons" five times fast...  ) It's nice to get to know Fred and George a bit more in the books, but i do enjoy watching James and Oliver play them... There's just something about hearing two people bat their words back and forth like a tennis ball that in some ways (for me, at least) goes beyond seeing them printed on a page... Not that the books aren't wonderful, of course. I like both versions very much.

Not being an audio learner, I tend to prefer the witty banter on page because I can follow it and enjoy it at my own pace, sometimes the twins go too fast in the movies for me to really get the meaning of their banter.
But agreed that James and Oliver definitely add to the Twins physical appeal.

Yeah, i'm more visual, too--i tend to remember things better when i see them written down. I do like the book version of Fred and George very much, but i've also come to greatly appreciate the film version.

Let me see... *goes to look up correct answer* (:P)
It is... Fred! So congrats to Kit.
Lemme just type out the whole thing.
Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince Chapter 16, A very frosty Christmas page 306: (in the british version, anyways...)
'You made me do that!' said Ron angrily, sucking his cut thumb. 'You wait, when I'm seventeen -' 'I'm sure you'll dazzle us all with hitherto unsuspected magical skills,' yawned Fred.

I'm gonna guess Ron, since we seem to've had a lot of Fred&George lately...

=D Yes, it's Mr. Weasley! From the GOF movie, after they've just gone through the portkey!
Your turn, Eruwae!

Oh, are we allowed to use quotes from the movies, too, then? Cool. (or as a Weasley fan should say, brilliant!  )
I found this absolutely wonderful fanfic i wanted to share with you guys. It's from Harry's point of view, but it has a lot of the Weasleys in it, too. It's basically about when they all die and are reunited in the afterlife, starting at the other King's Cross Station, and i know it may sound corny but let me assure you, it doesn't come across that way at all! There are some wondrous supernatural things that happen, but it's not overly sappy--they're told in a very beautiful, moving way, tho. And the characters are so in character, and there are loads of funny parts... It's great! Especially to see Fred among them again, and know that they'll never again be without him... And the moment when George finally dies--that sounds weird, but you know what i mean, hopefully--is one of my favorite parts. It's not finished yet, or doesn't seem to be, but there are four parts of the story already, and considering how recent the release of DH was, that's pretty amazing. I should warn you, the fanfic's rated T, which (i believe) according to Fanfiction.net means the recommended minimum age is 13. I can see why that's so, but nevertheless i highly recommend this fanfic. Click here to read it.
Btw, does anyone know how to make links a different color from regular text?

You would be correct...
*runs to get DH copy to cite*
Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows
Pg. 113
Harry seized the wand lying beside his camp bed, pointed it at the cluttered desk, and said, "Accio glasses!" Although they were only around a foot away there was somthing immensly satisfying about seeing them zoom toward him, at least until they poked him in the eye. "Slick," snorted Ron.
Sorry I just thought that part was hilarious I love Ron's sarcasm....But it's your turn Eariel

<b>Nice guess, Eariel!</b> And thanks for the fanfic-rec, I'll definitely check it out when I can.
Hmmm, not sure about the link thing though.  Sorry!
