POA time passing

Sassy here - I got the feeling with the last film that time/seasons 
were not really passing, despite the whomping willow shots. Like when 
Buckbeak is to be executed that is following there exams, which in 
the film it did not - it was closer to Easter when Hermione walks out 
of class, but then in the film Harry hears the prediction from 
Trelawney. But if it was a regular class day, where the heck were all 
the other students on the school grounds? 

It would make more sense around exam time there would be less 
students out and about. One thing I truly liked about the first 2 
films was feeling the school year actually progressing - but through 
the kids more than anything.

Also, with Harry just flying off on his Firebolt, where was the 
ending? How many of you sat in the theatre expecting a little bit 
more to the end...although the credits were awesome. 

I think Cuaron should have been with the first film but as a 
cinematographer. He would have captured a beautiful look that would 
have stayed with all the films and not have glaring inconsistencies 
that even a child commented on.
