Yes....... When I saw it the first time, I did exactly what you did, 
and was so disapointed at what they left out, and what they changed.  
The second time, I watched it "as a movie" and pretended I never read 
the book, and I really loved it.  The first time seemed so choppy to 
me, and they really took their time through the first 3/4 of the 
movie, then it seems as if the director looked at his watch suddenly 
and said "Hey, we've got to wrap this thing up!!"  I felt the ending 
was rushed and not true to the book.  And I don't understand also why 
Quirrels hands weren't burned when he choked Harry.  
Well...... I'm seeing it again tomorrow, and I'm leaving the book 
once again out of my mind.
I really hope they do CoS in two movies.  I want to see all of it.
Also, I can't wait for the directors cut of SS.
