Susan (teilani):

Two separate thoughts, the easier one first:

I'm not really a shipper of any kind, and don't really care who 
Harry, Ron and Hermione hook up with... they're kids.  However, #23) 
Hermione hugging Ron, and Harry hugging the two of them... Hmmmm.... 
I practically leapt out of my seat when I saw that.  I thought that 
scene made it really obvious that Hermione likes Ron as much as he 
seems to like her.  Harry was standing right there.  All she'd have 
to do is turn left instead of right.  And let's face it, Harry's a 
much more powerful wizard than Ron at this point, and possibly just 
more powerful naturally.  That is, he's stronger.  IMO, if she had 
equal, platonic feelings for both the guys, I'd think she'd turn 
towards the stronger of the two to get her comfort.  But that didn't 
happen.  She turned to Ron.  Harry, being stronger, hugs and comforts 
them both.

#28)  Sirius touches Remus' heart when he's transforming, telling him 
essentially that (No, I didn't bring a notebook to the theater) 
Remus, his essence or whatever makes him HIM, keeps him more himself, 
resides in his heart.

Sirius touches Harry's heart before he's getting ready to fly off, 
and tells him essentially the same thing.  Now THIS I think is a clue.

I'd love to hear thoughts on both, especially from those of you who 
can remember the exact words.

on the movie ;-)
