The first time I heard about it (I think it was where Dark Mark had a 
list of movie mistakes before it was released) I thought my eyes were 
going to bleed from seeing it.  But I really didn't think it was that 
bad.  I think it would have been a lot worse if it had been a full 
body shot - at least they only showed his feet on the broom then cut 
to his hand reaching out for the snitch.  Somehow made it less 
obvious, either that or I was expecting the worst (ya know, Beach 
Boys music playing in the background, that sort of thing) and didn't 
see what I had envisioned.  I can forgive it.
