I *loved* it! And (surprisingly for me) I'm not going to complain 
about it too much. But I do have lots of points to make...

- Lily and James were just right IMHO, but the whole Lily's death 
scene was just plain wrong. This is the only thing I can say off the 
top of my head was totally screwed up by the film. Oh yeah, and did 
anyone else cry during the mirror of erised scene?

- I don't even have an inner H/H shipper (I'm R/H through & through) 
but I thought the scene with his glasses was adorable.

- Am I the only person who pronounced Draco as Dra-co, not Dray-co 
until today? It's definitely Dray-co in the film.

- Is it just me or were the Ravenclaws' ties wrong? Gryffindor had 
gold and red, Slytherin had silver and green, Hufflepuff had yellow 
and black, but I'm sure the Ravenclaws had blue and silver when I'm 
sure they should be blue and copper

- Absolutely no complaints about Quidditch. Simply brilliant!

- The centaur was awful! I always imagined him as being entirely 
human from the waist up, but he was blatently computer generated and 
rather disappointing. The unicorn on the other hand was great.

- Richard Harris was very wooden, but Robbie Coltrane was perfect and 
all the kids were adorable! This is getting scary, I'm only about 4 
years older than them myself.

- Alan Rickman! *swoons* Even if I didn't already love chemistry, his 
speech would have easily inspired me to sign up for potions.

- Quidditch playing McGonnagal? Hmmm. And I think I spotted the 
initials R.J.L. on the plaque next to hers. Could this be who i think 
it is?

P.S. The one downside of dragging my Dad along to the film in the 
hope of converting him (I'va already got my Mum obsessed) is that he 
now insists on calling me Hermione, because I apparently *am* her! 
(Hence the form my spoiler space took) Like I don't get enough of 
that at school! I get the feeling that people don't mean it as a 
compliment.
