What I didn't like about the centaur was his height. He absolutely
towered above Daniel! Now before horse riders start saying that horses
can be tall, I know. I've ridden horses, from welsh ponies to
thoroughbreds, and even though Harry is supposed to be small, I never
got the impression that the centaurs were that humongous. Do centaurs
have two sets of shoulders (human and horse)? Because it seemed that
the horse part of Firenze must have been about 16h, PLUS the human part
on that. And that face seemed a little too unhuman, too flat (he looked
a bit like my Voldemort, with such a shaped face).

As for the unicorn...I barely noticed it in all of my viewings.
Voldemort had my attention all the way.

Speaking of which, did he look like a Lethifold to you or what?
