Being a Snapeoholic, I enjoyed his scenes-but was ticked off by the lack of 
them. 

There was so many holes in this movie I honestly feel offended.  I mean, 
Harry never asks about how Lupin knows about the map.  We never learn about James 
and company becoming animagus and James becoming a stag (the form Harry's 
patronus takes).  No one says anything about how Sirius knew about Peter being at 
Hogwarts when he was locked up in Azkaban.   Sirius didn't send Harry a note 
with a statement saying he had permission to go to Hogsmeade either...guess 
he's still not allowed to go XP  Hermione didn't have her nervous 
breakdown....oy...the list goes on and on and on. 

What irked me was: 

That little sappy love scene between Sirius and Remus when Remus is 
transforming. 

And Lupin's need for jazzy cartoon battle music when they were fighting the 
boggart was a bit odd 0.0
