Geoff:
Depends on what you consider to be specifics.

In the book, the last confrontation between Harry and Voldemort
takes place in the Great Hall. The two protagonists are described
as circling round each other the whole time, Harry watching very 
carefully for evidence that Voldemort is about to cast the spell.

Nowhere do they come into physical contact. If they were to, would
Voldemort waste his time asking Harry "Why do you live?" rather
than complete the task he has been trying to do for sixteen years - 
eliminate his nemesis?

Also, why is this apparently taking place on the Astronomy Tower?

In the book again, although  some damage detailed - the main 
staircase is mentioned - the Hall is sufficiently intact for furniture 
to be there and we have to wait for the sunrise to come over the 
window sill... which to me is tinkering.

In other areas, someone has already commented on the guy 
stopping the train, which strikes me personally as unnecessary 
such as the five minutes or so of film time wasted over the attack 
on the Burrow and the station cafeteria scene in HBP.

But we must wait and see.....
