As far as the end battle mimicking the battle in DH, that's two movies away.
There shouldn't be a battle in part one, just part two. For goodness sake,
there was a battle in every Star Wars and I don't think the audience got
bored with it.

It was a bad call, no doubt. They decided that there was no action mid-way
through the film and for a 2:33 film they thought they needed action mid-way
through to keep the audience's attention. It was a bad call. The battle in
the middle made NO SENSE. The Borrow had aurrors, spells, etc. just like
Hogwarts, that's why Harry was safe there!!! They idea that the death eaters
could just wonder in anytime and set the place on fire was dumb. Plus, there
was no rhyme or reason for the attack. OTOH, the battle at Hogwarts makes
perfect sense, and the idea that no one knows Dumbledore is dead until all
the smoke clears is very dramatic. 

 

Picture this: The battle is over, people are wondering confused at what just
happened, Harry stumbles over to where Dumbledore fell, kneels, realizes the
reality and Faux's Lament begins as others slowly creep towards, Ginny sees
it and doesn't gasp or cry, simply, instinctively runs to comfort Harry.
Fade out / fade in to the sun setting low in the sky the next day, the
funeral begins and the camera sweeps through the familiar crowd and settles
on Hagrid, bearing DD's coffin on his shoulder. He walks past Harry, who
looks away, then quickly get's up and walks away, Hermione and Ron follow,
Ginny goes to get up, Mrs. Weasely holds her back (we now know Mrs. Weasely
is not letting Ginny join them.) With the funeral in the background the trio
climb up a high hill where Harry sat with Hedwig in Chamber of Secrets
over-looking the lake and their they make plans for the future. The coffin
is sealed, faux flies off, Ginny watches Harry in pain as her mother holds
her arm firmly, Harry, Ron & Hermione make a pact to begin the quest for the
horcruxes. The sun sets with a final shot of Faux flying into the darkness.
Credits roll.
