  Ahhh I’ve been able to rest a bit since the first showing and recollect the film.
   
  I loved Luna. That’s all I need to say.
   
  Yes I caught the part where Sirius calls Harry, James. There is also a scene when the kids are listening with the extendable ears and one of the order argues with Sirius that Harry is not James.
   
  I know some people might have found it short with Sirius going through the veil but was it really that drawn out in the book? I could have sworn the book made it appear just as abrupt (I’ll have to reread). 
   
  As for Neville’s scene, I’m thinking it was a fix it. I never understood what they were doing in the 4th film when Karkarov said that Barty Crouch Jr. took part in the torture of the Longbottoms. I thought it was just Bellatrix or was there more than just one? Arrgghh
I’m rereading book 6 and I’m forgetting about book 5 already.
   
  Fave lines:
   
  “Get away from my Godson.” I looooved, loved, loved that.
  “Sorry Professor, I must not tell lies.”
  “How’s mum and dad?” “Great now that I’m about to avenge them.”
   
  I know some were looking for the Neville/Harry broke the prophecy but I was fine with Lucias doing it. I think they wanted to maintain Neville to be less goofy/clumsy than in the books. To tell you the truth, I prefer it this way.
   
  The Twins great departure I thought was fine. I don’t think I would have wanted it to drag out so much. However, I really do miss the entire plot of how they will achieve their joke shop. I have a feeling it will just be thrown in there without explanation in the next film.
   
  I’m fine with the way it was changed to Cho as the snitch and the revealing of why she snitched, but I did not like how it never went further than that. She just pretty much dropped off after the Snape/Umbridge conversation. That’s just me. I do realize Ginny will be the front girl for the next film but Cho’s needed more to end it.
   
  As I said before, NOT enough Malfoy. It better ring true of exposure in the next film.
   
  I cannot stress how much I like Alan Rickman. I’m on pins and needles with this next film when he has the guts to kill Dumbledore. Gives me chills thinking about it.
   
  I agree not enough McGonagall either. I always liked her for her harsh but fair attitude and it was a bit weak when brought up against Umbridge. Still love her though.
   
  Still love the film, still plan to see it again.
