oh. I just had to add one more thing.
Dumbledore STUNNED Harry!! By leaving this out it made Harry look like a pansy who wasn''t willing to fight when he was really struggling against the stunning spell the whole time trying to save Dumbledore. This is also why Dumbledore didn''t have time to overcome Draco before being disarmed. I also didn''t like that the fight scene was virtually eliminated and that you didn''t see Harry give his Felix to all of his friends. Without the fight scene we missed Bill getting bit and Fleur was all but eliminated. As they are two main characters in the last book (Shell Cottage) we need to know this about them.
Okay, ONE more thing....
Without Dumbledore spending time telling Harry what he thought the Horcruxes must be, Harry really has NO idea of what he''s looking for.
I do think that the next movie will fill in blanks. Maybe it''ll have Dumbledore''s funeral and people talking about what happened that Harry was unaware of. If they spend enough time at the Burrow they can bring back in the characters, too. And, Harry could tell Ron and Hermione what took place during other private lessons with Dumbledore (regarding Horcruxes).
Bellatrix WAS amazing and I wonder if that''s why they added the Burrow attack scene (to give her more screen time) and of course Snape is always outstanding. While Slughorn wasn''t exactly what I pictured physically, his demeanor was spot on. I agree that out of the kid characters, Ron''s was played the best.
I''d like to watch it again with the thought of "this is just a new movie" rather than "this is HP"
I guess more credit is due to the people who tried to take a 700 page book and make a movie out of it at all. I don''t think it''s something most screenwriters would jump at.
