  This is only my guess, but probably they change that Snape didn't go 
  into the sheirking shack, he confronted Lupin+Sirius+trio+Peter when 
  they step outside of the shack. So he tie up Lupin right there 
  (because Lupin is oh-so-dangerous) and refuse to listen. Then Lupin 
  transform, break the ropes, Snape tried to protect the trio, but the 
  werewolf knock him out. 

  I think if the film follow exactly like the book it'll be really 
  boring and not cinematic enough. There's just too many "talking" 
  and "explaining" from Lupin, then the awkward pause in between by 
  Snape (he came in, knock out, drag out..), then Lupin speak again, 
  then they reveal Peter....I mean, that'll be a bad script if they did 
  exactly that. These all works well in the book, but definitely not on 
  film. So I think they move the part where Snape came in with the 
  invisibility clock, and had him confront the crowd when they step 
  outside of the shack.


  You're probably right.  The important part is that Snape not overhear all the conversation in the shack.  I was looking forward to Snape unveiling himself from the invisibility cloak in the shack though.  Oh well, I'm all for them changing things to make the movie run more smoothly, as long as they are in the spirit of the book.
