Celoneth:
My favourite pieces of magic were the ones that hide the WW in the
middle of the Muggle world - like the enchantments that allow the
Leaky Cauldron to be seen only by wizards or the broken telephone
booth & empty department store that hide the MoM & St. Mungos that
Muggles never seem to notice. Its fun to imagine an entire world
hiding in the midst of everything ordinary. McGonagall's
transfigurations were also very cool - the giant chess set, the battle
w/ Snape & the enchantments in the battle of Hogwarts just very
impressive all around.

Least favourite have to be the Hallows, I don't like super-powerful
magical trinkets & the hero searching for such trinkets seems cliche
to me. Also the house-elf magic - its way too broken - using
house-elfs, one could break every single wizarding enchantment, no
matter how complex or unbreakable, just by ordering the elf. It also
seems really odd that with wizards, who've owned house-elfs for
generations wouldn't realise the potential of their servants.
