While of course we have no idea why this occurred, it's rather
interesting to wonder why.  In the GOF movie, I noticed that the
filmmakers decided *not* to show Draco/Ferret being bounced from 10
feet  in the air *to the ground* accompanied by his squeals of pain
while Harry, Ron, and Hermione and other Gryffindors laugh
uproariously about it.  Instead, Draco is simply swished around in the
air a bit.  I always thought that perhaps the filmmakers knew that HRH
and friends wouldn't look nearly so cool if they showed the scene the
way it occurred in the books.  Perhaps  the makers of OOTP felt the
same way about the Marietta scenes.  

Remember, we see everything from Harry's point of view in the books
(well, mostly).  But in the films, while Harry's point of view can get
a strong focus, it's not quite the same.  We make more of our own
decisions about how we view events without a Harry centered narration
telling us whether or not it's funny, or whatever.  Hermione might not
look nearly so justified if we got to see Marietta's punishment for
ourselves, without as much Harry-filter.
