Forgive me if I am wrong, but when was the spell "Levicorpus" 
used in OoTP, book I mean?  I just finished rereading (for the 
umpteenth time) it and  now am 2/3's the way through HBP.  I 
thought that was the first time we heard about it, from the old 
potions book, and here it is in the OoTP movie?  The DA is 
practicing it and Luna uses it in the Dept of Mysteries? Or am I 
missing something?

My husband GREATLY missed the whole "Weasley is our King" 
Quiddich parts, as he thought it would help lighter the otherwise 
darkness of the film. He also thought that Grimmald Place 
should have been in a more "seedy" part of London, not in such 
a nice, neat neighborhood.  I personally saw it as more like the 
old brownstones in New York CIty, rather than how it was shown 
in the movie.

My biggest part missed was St. Mungos, visiting Mr. Weasley 
there and finding out about Neville's parents that way, rather than 
just Harry and Neville briefly talking about it in the Room of Req.
