want of a better wordwhen he tries to attack Harry (which is what I Think 
happens at that time)

Well, actually I picture the exchange to happen right after Dobby is freed and 
before Dobby sends Lucius merrily on his way, tumbling down the stairs.  Which 
MUST be in the movie as well. :)  Anyhow, I just had a thought.  In the book 
there's a line right in the middle of Dobby being freed (as in he's freed, but 
Lucius hasn't yet realized it) where Lucius says "You'll meet the same sticky 
end as your parents one of these days, Harry Potter.  They were meddlesome 
fools, too."

It always struck me as odd for Harry not to respond to that.  That's generally 
the best way to get a rise out of Harry, say something negative about his 
parents.  But in the book, he says nothing.  Lucius turns to go, calls Dobby to 
follow him, he doesn't as he caught the sock, etc.  Perhaps they used this 
parent line in there as well?  To give Harry a reason to make a reaction?  
<sigh> must wait, must wait.

Speaking as an arachnophobe I don't mind them being small Yyyyyeeeuuuch!!!! Spiders!!!!  No really, it's perfectly fine by me.  

Except they should be six feet tall <falters........> and even Ron won't be afraid unless they are substantially larger than so far seen.

I tend (or hope) towards the feeling that *dear* Lucius is being supercilious more than sarcastic, although I doubt that the exchange takes place, as has been suggested, after Harry has set Dobby free as Lucius would be wildly dishevelled having fallen down a flight or two of stairs as Dobby zaps him for want of a better wordwhen he tries to attack Harry (which is what I Think happens at that time)

The very ungiant spiders-

Then there are the ridiculously small spiders in the trailer. Maybe we
haven't seen the really big ones yet, but there is one short scene in
the trailer where a spider is crawling toward them and I assume that
this is Aragog. However, this spider isn't even 3 feet tall, and the
spiders that get run over by the car are roughly the same size. These
spiders are suppose to be able to pick Harry and Ron up and carry
them.  These puny spiders don't look up to the task.
