yes, there is a difference
when i first found this clip https://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=endscreen&v=yX0UesfWdjU&NR=1, i thought a harry potter version of 'marry, date, or dump,' sounded fun. 'snog, marry, or stupefy'? fun equivalents.
yeah, they're not equivilants.
in some cases, the answers turn out the same, for example, matthew lewis, tom felton, daniel radcliffe.
marry tom,
date matt,
dump dan.
or
marry tom,
snog, heck yeah snog, matt,
wait, i'm sorry, can we just take a moment here?
snog, heck yeah snog, matt,
stupefy dan.
the meanings are slightly different (thus the 'heck yeah'), but the answers are the same.
in some cases, however, the hp version suddenly wreaks havoc on your answers (and psyche). for example, aragorn, legolas, gimli.
obviously marry aragorn, i'd date gimli (he could be fun to hang out with at a pub for a night), and dump legolas.
but when you change that to snog, marry, stupefy? obviously still marry aragorn,
but then...ah! eew! i can't snog gimli, i just can't. but do i really want to snog someone who's prettier than i am? i have to choose to snog legolas, but that would be like snogging a girl! eew!
and that, my friends, is the difference between 'marry, date, or dump,' and 'snog, marry, or stupefy.'

Yeah...I most definitely agree when those are the choices, but what about Boromir? You could snog Boromir...
he wasn't in the trio that went to 'hunt some orc,' so he didn't get included in the choices this time. believe me, i'd snog 'im if i got the chance. ;)
Interesting. That may change my responses to the guys I referred to in my post. If dating can be hanging out but not making out. In that case, those two would probably be flipped. Or flipped if I was playing the regular version, Marry, Date or Dump, that is. Interesting...
What about Draco, Neville and Harry?
Or Viggo Mortensen, John Rhys-Davies or Orlando Bloom? (yes, I did have to look that up)
marry neville, date/snog draco, dump/stupefy harry.
marry viggo, date/snog orlando, dump/stupefy mr. rhys-davies.
i'd totally marry legolas, snog gimli, stupefy aragorn
