According to Toby Jones in a recent interview with MTV, Dobby the house elf will be a no-show in the upcoming film HARRY POTTER AND THE ORDER OF THE PHOENIX.

Jones, who voiced Dobby in the second film of the series, said, "I know that the filmmakers have a problem with each new film because the books are getting longer there's so much to include in them."

In the book, it is Dobby who both divulges to Harry the secret of the Room of Requirement (where Harry and the other members of "Dumbledore's Army" meet to practice forbidden defensive spells), and materializes to warn Harry that his secret hideout is no longer safe from the prowling eyes of the increasingly powerful Ministry of Magic informant (and new Defense Against the Dark Arts teacher), Dolores Umbridge. With Dobby's absence, it is unclear how these matters will be handled in the film.

However another house-elf named Kreacher, a servant to Sirius Black's estranged family, will make his first film appearance in the upcoming film.

I forgot all about Dobby. But then, I don't read the books and much prefered LOTR's Gollem. Meh!

No Dobby!!!?? that sir, is an outrage!!!...well i see how that would make telling of this particular part a tad bit difficult....man.....

So here it is! Who would win in a 3-way fight to the death? Dobby, Jar Jar Binks, or Gollum? My money is on Gollum. He`s wry and psycho.

Simple, Gollum strangles Jar Jar with his own tongue and then eats Dobby.
majorbludd 10/10/2006 5:44:39 AM
Gollum baby all the way!!!!!!!

Well they cut all the house elf stuff from the fourth book, so I guess this isn't too surprising. Although those two scenes are fairly important. They'll still need to be in the movie, so it seems dumb to remove Dobby.

Dobby would win. He's got magic. I have no problem with them cutting some things for time. With the length of these books, you can't get everything in, or you'd have a 10-hour movie. As long as there are not egregious flaws, the movies are well written, and they keep to the spirit of the books, I'm fine.

Might as well nix him. They did it to his Aunt and Uncle in the last one.
