b. Not to mention that in the book, DD taking a moment to immobilize Harry
was *the* only reason that Draco got the drop on DD. Without this, there was
no way (in the WW) that Draco could have done so.
On a totally unrelated note, I am grateful once again that the actress who
portrayed Narcissa was pregnant before the filming of OoTP began, as it
allowed Helena Bonham Carter to play Bellatrix instead of her. HBC's looks
are so much better suited to play BL, and she is so perfectly manic in that
role.
Other than the two WTF parts above, I thought this was an excellent movie.
It felt more like an "interesting mainstream film" and less like a "fantasy
school movie". The scenes had more "real" moments that the average moviegoer
could relate to, instead of just enjoyment by HP fans.
Don't get me wrong--I've loved all the movies (well except for #3); I just
thought this one had a wider appeal. Partly because our little wizards and
witches are growing up and dealing with adult feelings...

I never read it that Draco got the "drop" on DD, but especially knowing what
is disclosed in DH, DD let Draco get the "drop" on him because he wanted the
confrontation, wanted Draco to make a choice. He had shared all the memories
with Harry, got Slughorn's info and taken Harry to find the one Horcrux he
knew where it was hidden. At that point DD knew his time was almost up and
he wanted Draco to make a choice and he was happy with the choice and ready
for Snape to do what he had promised both DD and Malfoy's mother.
The same Director showed DD pushing Harry back to keep him from attacking
Voldy in OOTP, would have fit perfect for him to petrify Harry in HBP in the
same casual manner.
No idea why Draco's mom looked like his grandmother, absolutely worse
costuming and hair in all the films.
I loved #3, think it's the best of all the films, not the most faithful, but
as a stand-alone-film, as a film-not-a-book it's the best by far.
