Toby Jones, the voice of Dobby from Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets, confirmed
in a recent interview that his character will not be making an appearance in Order of the Phoenix.
Jones remarked:
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.
Jones also commments on being in the second movie, Chamber of Secrets:
The thing I feel very, very proud of is the fact that I get mail just about every week of the year from all parts of the world — very nice mail thanking me for that way I voiced the character and saying how accurately I did it. So it's a great addition to my life and a very unexpected one. I had no idea that the character would have that much impact.
The article also mentions that the character of Kreacher will be in the movie and that sharp eyed fans should be on the look out for clues that may happen since JK Rowling told screenwriters what is important to include in the movie adaptations.

Aw! I hate that Dobby isn't going to be in OotP! He would be great in that. How is Harry supposed to find the Room of Requirement without him? Of course, they used Neville to find gillyweed in GoF instead of Dobby, so I guess it's possible. Also, I can't stand Kreacher, but I guess he is important in OotP.

Dang. That's kind of sad! I always liked Dobby's characters! Who's going to take Harry to the Room of Requirement?........probably Neville......(grrr).
I think including Dobby would make the movies have a nice flow. Retunr characters link movies together better, IMO.
Oh well, at least we get Kreacher!

Not fair I wanted to see Dobby too. Atleast they are including Kreacher and didn't completely cut house elves this time. Wonder what the clues are that were mentioned.

Ah...that is a shame. We do love Dobby so. However, it will be so important to see Kreacher and his hate relationship with Sirius and everyone else too.

How can Dobby not be in it?!
=O
Ahhh! They're leaving out some really good parts I have to admit. Quidditch, and now Dobby?
This movie better be good....

So sad about dobby although the fourth movie turned out okay without him. It's just nice to have the whole effect without having to cut out the extras like dobby. I hope kreacher will be done as nicely as dobby was :)

The books are getting so much longer, it's going to be so difficult to include every little thing. Maybe OoTP should be a 2-parter :)

I agree! OoTP should be a two parter!! Intermission! I know they don't have time and have to cut something out, but I think there's a reason why JK has included Dobby so early, along with the whole SPEW. There has to be another reason for their presense, and I think it's a shame they're cut out. Make the movie four hours long with intermission - we'll still see it!! :)

Kreacher is essential in thee story, so it's not a question he has to be in. Dobby? Well, I won't miss his whining really... I'm not a person who would join SPEW... I'm rather the one who would have her lunch made by house-elves :)

he was very good as Dobby...oh well! It was worse in GO when he wasnt in it and the huge change of Neville taking his place...but guys these are the movies! I`ve leaned over the years to expect thing like this..not too shocking for me
I`m happy that Krecher is in OOTP though! cause we`ve never seen him!! :)

I was devastated but then i told myself "if i can take there being no 'Weasley Is Our King' story line or Quidditch!!!!, than i can take there being no dobby. But im just wondering who will tell Harry about the Room of Requirements and warn him about Umbridge?!?!

Well, as much as I hate to say it Dobby isn't very important in the scheme of things.
But it's also sad to see things left out,

They won't let me in the movie because I'm too sexy for it.
No, this is sad, Dobby HAS to be in the movies again before they are over! He is amazing!
I'm glad they at least have Kreacher in them though.
