It's obvious how important they are to the book, if you fail to see
that then you haven't truly read POA  Sincerely,

::::::::::::::::::::::::

I wasn't playing down their importance, I certainly get that. Believe me,
I've truly read all the books multiple times - your opinion varying from
mine doesn't mean you've read the book more skillfully or thoroughly than I
have, that's a rather insulting statement.

I was simply stating that Sirius does not have a large role in POA, he has a
large presence in the story and that is certainly conveyed in the film. But
there wasn't very much more for the director to show of him, the scenes are
simply not in the book to be filmed. My question is, what scenes with Sirius
or Lupin where left out of the film that where of such vital importance? 

As for Hermiaone . yes they give her too much in the movies at Rons expense
- but when I read the books I get annoyed with how much Rowling gives
Hermione, to the point where I find it frustrating how helpless she makes
Ron and Harry out to be and I think the filmmakers by and large pick up on
that.
