The thing that irked me was that Harry's Patronus didn't take the shape of a 
stag like it did in POA.  I would have liked to see it gallop away and then 
back toward the screen to ward of Dudley's Dementor.   I was disappointed at 
that.

Boy, yea, after reading DH, I DEFINITELY realized that Lily's appearance in 
that scene was vital to the "Prince's Tale," hence the end of the series' 
plot.

Grawp just didn't look the way I pictured him in the book.  Book!Grawp is 
supposed to have bushy hair and a bulbous nose, and I was a tad disappointed 
when I first saw the movie.
