clcb58:
I was also dissatisfied with Yates on OOTP. I agree with the points
Steve makes, but also feel that Harry's anger--a primary theme of the
book--was vastly underplayed. The scene where he's supposed to be
taking a summer's worth of frustration out on Ron and Hermione when he
arrives at Grimmauld Place plays more like a dinner table discussion.
And I really missed Harry trashing Dumbledore's office in his grief
for Sirius. In the final two films, I hope Yates lets Dan play the
broader range of emotion he's capable of.
