Watched it today and nearly fell asleep. They forgot all the good bits and I will never forgive them ='[ Unfortunately, I feel the same way. I just saw it. I have massive amounts of love for Luna aussi, great casting i think. I cried, twice. Once when Sirius died. His actual death was crap, but thingy holding Harry back and Harry miming/scream/crying was too much for my over sensitiveness. Boo-hoo. Wasn't Luna Irish? Sirius' death was so dissapointing, he didn't fall, he just kind of sunk.

They didn't do the curtain in the DoM correctly. They just had it look like a rather windy spot just randomly in the middle of this archway.

EXACTLY. I always thought it was like these window curtains upagainst the wall, but instead of a window behind them, there's a BLACK HOLE OF DOOM AND DEATH.

Pretty much! But more mysterious and subtle.

what was with kreacher's really low voice, i imagined it much higher like most house elves' are.. In the books, it was described as really low and bullfrog like, very dissimilar to Dobby's.

just remembered, DRACO ONLY HAD LIKE, 2 LINES! Okay, so he's the meany and all he's doing is sucking up to Prof. Umbridge but really, they must remember that he has a voice!gah, just annoyed at the film in general. Sirius' death scene was disappointing. Harrys dad is a total jerk. (and reminds me of Cedric more than Harry) Wasn't Prof. Umbridge supposed to look like a toad? And they missed out the whole get-to-the-fireplace mission. Instead they use "Alohamora" and get caught right in the office. Sorry guys, this is me at midnight, I should really sleep.

The problem with expecting movies to be exactly the same as the books is that... people forget they are movies, and they do have a time limit.
I was really pleased with the way they did it. But then, I've read the book, so I have no idea how it would look to someone who hasn't.
Also, Harry's dad was SUPPOSED to be a jerk. That was sort of the whole point of it..

Did you read the book? :-\ James was a big jerk in Snape's Worst Memory. And yet.. he's my favourite character.. But that could be due entirely to fandom. I did love his smirk at the end of that scene. Oh man. It was so perfect!

Really? I didn't think of her like that at all. Hermione, though... god, she can't act at all, but Emma is so pretty.

Did you read the book? :-\ James was a big jerk in Snape's Worst Memory. Yes but...I just wish he was nicer because I like him! Ah they were all jerks apart from Remus. That is because I love Remus. And not only because he's a wolf. I do not, however, like adult remus as he doesnt look like my idea of young remus AT ALL.

Remus Lupin did not say a WORD in this movie. (Unless I am mistaken...)

He totally did! He said lots of stuff during the whole Order scene in the beginning.. Okay, not LOTS. But he did talk! I remember it happening! Mostly because I was like "HOMG, REMUS, YOU ARE BACK!" It was a weird thing for me. I do not know why..

Snape, Luna, The Weasley twins, Harry's first flashback, Voldemort's suit, and pretty much from when they go into the Ministry - all excellent.
The very end "we have something he doesn't - something worth fighting for" - didn't like that. Too cheesy. Although it allowed me to make many hilarious jokes afterwards that were clearly appreciated by my best friend.
