Why? They could have so dropped in and forcused more on anything 
else. <snip>

they could play it any other way.  What does Grawp do?  He chases 
away the Centaurs.  They could have Hagrid showing up to do that...or 
a dragon shows up...or Harry and Hrmione cast some spells, or 
whatever!

as you say, they went for the special effects angle!

Jen D here:
As someone earlier (Steve, I believe) said, it's all about the blood. 
Grawp had to spill blood to make the thestrals appear! But I do 
agree, there has to be a bigger reason for Grawp. It will be fun 
later to go back to all these disparate movies and finally SEE the 
threads she was weaving and we didn't even realize it. Another point: 
no more Dobby since COS. If he appears in this film then you know 
BAM! He's important. If he's not in it, can't imagine he'll return 
again. I felt sure he was a goner from the films when he didn't 
appear in GOF but I'm not sure anymore. The film people are ruthless. 
If they need him later, they'll figure out how to get him in just as 
much (or as little) as they need. Just figure there won't be a Grawp 
payoff until the 7th film. They could easily leave him out of an HPB 
film and I bet they do!
Yours theoretically,
Jen D.
