You know how sometimes when you read HP it strikes you that you've met this character before, under quite dissimilar circumstances? I was listening to OotP the other day, and when I reached the passage where Draco rolls his eyes, wiggles his tongue and pulls grosteque grimaces (or something along these lines; it's hard to keep track of what silly thing exactly Draco is doing in which book), I realised: Draco is Chandler Bing.

Think about it. Far from being the Ice Prince of Slytherin, Draco is the class clown. Plus, he's indeniably got that certain, ah, quality (much discussed in season 1, if I'm not mistaken).

Also: headstrong, attractive mother who knows what she wants? Check. Blond, attractive father, who likes prancing around, runs off with the house boy... elf... boy, and joins some dubious cult movement where he can indulge in his fondness for extravagant clothes?Check. And Pansy Parkinson is so Janice.

In supporting roles:

Hermione Granger as Monica
Luna Lovegood as Phoebe
Ginny Weasley as Rachel
Neville Longbottom as Ross
and
Crabbe'n'Goyle as Joey

Seriously. Can't you just picture Crabbe'nGoyle grunting "How ya doin'?" at random girls? And I know Harry thinks they're ugly, but we know that Harry appreciates the slender, elegant type and ignores the butch.

On a similar note: Fanon!Sirius and Remus are so Scott and Mike from My Own Private Idaho. It's almost as though the movie was an AU version of the average Sirius/Remus post-Hogwarts fic.
