My OotP Review

[Phyllis]

Karen:

<<No, Harry asks Lucius and he explains it when Lucius and Bellatrix 
are facing down the DA sextet in the Hall of Prophecies.>>

I need to see this movie again – I missed this completely!  Although 
my daughter was distracting me with questions from time to time, so 
that could be why I missed this.

Karen:

<<Hermione says after the kiss scene she is worried about her mother 
being sacked from the ministry, so they merged the two there.>>

Since I couldn't understand Emma at this point, I missed this too!  
Thanks for the clarification.  I also missed that Cho was the sneak 
because of the Veritaserum, although that really doesn't make sense 
because all of the DA members were forced to drink it, so why was 
Cho the only one who spilled the beans?

Karen:

<<Except they had set a precedent having Snape being present in 
Harry's memories. (I thought a good addition was seeing Harry and 
Sirius hug and Snape is standing there and says, "I think I may 
vomit". )>>

I missed this, too – argh!

Karen:

<<But she [Hermione] is improvising in the book too? I mean, she 
didn't really have that planned.>>

I don't think she is improvising in the book – not at first, 
anyway.  She goes into the forest making a lot of racket to attract 
the centaurs.  She even tells the centaurs she was hoping they would 
drive Umbridge away for them.  She only has to start improvising 
once the centaurs don't do what she thought they were going to do.
