  I have to so agree with you.  I saw it twice in one day...once at midnight, then went again at the noon the same day.  I thought it flew by so quickly, the scenes just did not seemed developed to me completely it made me fell like I was walking into the middle of conversations at random in a lot of scenes.  I don't mind all the omitted things, i mean we have to expect that of course, but the scenes they chose just were complete to me.  Also, and this worried me most, it even made me feel like the actors were giving their best performances.  Now I know that all of them, our trio and the adults, are very good at what they do but for some reason in this I felt lines were delivered late or not passionate enough when it was needed, which I don't fault the actors for that at all, I fault Yates or Goldenberg or whatever the screenwriters name is.  And even Rupert, who I adore of the trio the most, was allowed to mumble...and I say allowed because he seems to naturally do that
 anyway from what I've seen of takes of other movies where he mumbles words and then in the movie final cut he's a little louder...love Rupert don't get me wrong, but thats my opinion. (BTW, go rent or buy Driving Lessons everyone, it was released July 3rd on DVD!)  One great thing, they didn't make Ron (my fave character as well) NOT a scarry cat, he was brave and bold like Ron in the book.  I loved the Ron/Hermione stuff even though some of that wasn't suppose to happen until the next book, or was too much...not complaining about that though!LOL  Dan gave an awesome performance, especially with the emotional (angry/sad) bits, I'm so proud of him.  But the movie was just badly edited or something.  I mean the whole attempt of flooing from Umbridges office was VERY badly edited.  They get caught, there was no set up about the look outs, but then suddenly Neville's being dragged in sayng he was trying to help Ginny....?  from the book only, a movie goer would be like HUH?
   
  But I will definantly watch it again and again until they get it right!LOL





peace...real love...
