Sheryll:

I saw it last night as well. 

I wasn't fond of the change to the Astronomy tower scene, though most of the omissions/changes worked for me.

The costumers should be fired for keeping Dumbledore in that tacky bathrobe and for now giving poor Minerva the horrid black outfit with pointy shoulders. Ugh.

Still, there were some very nice surprises. I've never been fond of Michael Gambon as Dumbledore, as I didn't think he showed the whimsical side. However, he does bring a touch of humour to this movie and, IMO, does it well.
