Hi Karen,
I can't speak for Lizzie but alot of people really find his "Hitler" 
look quite repulsive. Cuaron intoduced the new Flitwick look and 
therefore has "alot to answer for." And no need to go over the DD 
thing again! I am sure if Flitwick had been a more central character 
that had been established in the first two films (ala the inemitable 
Mr. Rickman) and had not died, no director would have messed with 
his character's look. Who would have dared mess with Rickman after 
he delivered his first speech in such quietly menacing tones????
