You know, actually after watching this scene I did not find it being 
THAT OOC for Dumbledore. I mean sure Dumbledore does not grab 
people, BUT he was obviosly frustrated and probably scared for Harry 
and maybe thought that Harry did not realise how dangerous the 
Tournament could be and he let himself be human. I think I am more 
or less OK with this scene.

Gambon's Dumbledore growed on me very significantly today. I still 
that the ideal one would be Harris' serenity and Gambon's quirkiness 
together, but we cannot have that unfortunately. :-)

I LOVED his last scene with Harry where he apologises for putting 
Harry in danger. Loved it.

OK, yes to everything you said about Rupert and Dan. I thought they 
were very good and did not think that Dan is wooden at all. I think 
he improved SO much, but I just have to say big YES to this scene.

Dan's distress was SO believable, so well done. Bravo!

Yes, I also enjoyed many, many things about this movie, in fact it 
is absolutely my favorite one now, BUT I completely agree with you.

I am not even sure I need the introduction of the Order, I am sure 
there is a way to introduce in OOP, but  the lighthearted good bye 
after heartrenchinh scene of bringing Cedric back seemed wierd to me.

I would have loved to see something else acknowledging that 
everything is changes, not just Hermione saying it in vacuum, IMO.

Yes, I did not "feel" the ending at all.
