First you don't know whether those scenes you mentioned are really in
the film or not, you haven't seen the finish film yet. May be some
were there in the film? So before you scream/cry/sign petitions about
something, why not make sure they are indeed being remove or not
first? Yes we know Wood is cut and that's for sure, but we aren't
sure the entire Quidditch is removed and we don't know whether
Harry's excellent patronus is cut either. Unless you give me proves.
Second, they have been cutting fan's favorite scenes in the past
movies anyways. Where were all the potion classes? where is Peeves?
where is Valentine's Day? Where is the bit where Hermione solving the
potion logic? There are so much more and we all know that....so my
point is, since there have been too many book fan's favorites scenes
being cut from the movie in the past, shouldn't we know what to
expect by now? You can't have everything!
so the more important thing to worry/look forward is whether Alfonso
Cauron would do a good job in translating/interpreting the book as
best as possible, instead of worry/cry/scream/sign petition about
this scene and this character being cut. Especially since those cut
could mean better things for the finish product, you never know!
