Seeking Common Ground

[cindysphynx]

After seeing everyone's reactions to the film, I was wondering 
whether it is possible to reach consensus on anything.  To my 
surprise, I think there are a few areas in which no one has 
complained or fussed, and so there might be things upon which we can 
all agree.  Here's my very conservative list of things everyone on 
the list can agree on (in no particular order):

1.  Ron was great; Hagrid was great.
2.  Seamus' scenes should have gone to Neville.
3.  The Hogwarts and Diagon Alley sets looked just right.
4.  The centaur was, um, somewhat lacking.
5.  Having Dudley eat the birthday cake worked well as a motivation 
for Hagrid to give him a pig's tail.

That's all I can think of (but the nomination process has not 
concluded <bg>).  Would anyone like to make a nomination?

There are other candidates for unanimity, but I think I have heard 
enough murmurs of dissent that they can't be considered unanimous:

A.  Sean Biggerstaff was great (although there seems to be consensus 
among those who are interested that he is seriously hot).
B.  The Chocolate Frogs were a nice addition.
C.  Oliver Wood's pre-Quiddich speech was much improved.
D.  Richard Harris did the best that could be expected under the 
    circumstances.
E.  Emma's chess match speech was clunky.

As usual, dissent and contrary opinions are more than welcome.  :-)
