I agree wholeheartedly!  I loved it! I saw it twice in one weekend, i loved it so much!

I don't understand the people that said Rupert was the weaklink. He was great.
He matched the character of "Ron" from the books pretty well.  His character had me in stitches when I read CoS and
Rupert did a great job to portray that humor in the movie.


> Bad:      I wish they had given more screen time to Ginny Weasley & Snape

Yeah, they didn't explain a few things (i.e. i guess non-readers would assume that Ginny stole the book back from
Harry, cos they didnt say that in the movie).   The twins deserved more time as well.



> C'mon everyone - don't get so hung up on the minute details - enjoy it!

I know I did!!
It's impossible for the movie to be as good as the book -- it would have to be 8 hours long.  And the book is
always better, so why make it a negative experience?  I'd think that we're the lucky ones, to enjoy the book so
much and get a great version of it on the bigscreen.

Do we really have to wait until 2004 for PoA?  Darn.

Cheers,
