 those who noticed, DID the voice really say Avada Kadavra?
 I vaguely remember hearing some AK-like curse, maybe 
 'alakazam' or something, but the curse wasn't that clear.
 I wonder if they didn't use some AK-like curse (Abra Kadabra)
 to make us suspect he was killed before he went in, but 
 also to leave an element of uncertainty. Can anyone say 
 with absolute certainty what curse they heard?

akh responds:
I thought it sounded like something similar to AK, but not quite on.  Given that we have heard it said distinctly in other movies, that may very well have been deliberate.  (I was in the movie theatre with a large crowd, and the two middle-aged women next to me were vocalizing with "oh no" and such, so I'm not going to say I have the undisputed facts here!)  At the time, I thought, "Well, she didn't say that right..."  And, given Lucius Malfoy's partial Avada Kedavra in CoS was undisputed, and of course Peter Pettigrew and Voldemort said it quite plainly in GoF.  I'd think the ADR man would make Helena Bonham Carter sit there until she said it right if there wasn't supposed to be any doubt.

akh, who apologizes in advance for the goofy way this post is going to format!
