And now, since I just saw the movie, I will post my review:
Love the opening, the quidditch arena was breathtaking. I was all set to see a quidditch match that wouldn't bore me, and then they skipped it. They didn't even explain the Vislas (veela's? I don't remember.)
I loved how funny it was. Easily the funniest movie. Liked that there was a mix of emotions, the characters had more dimension in this one than they did in the others.
Really disliked how they did Dumbledore. To me. Dumbledore is all about quiet strength. He doesn't need to yell and freak out to get his point across. I miss the first Dumbledore a lot, as I felt like he portrayed him very accurately. This Dumbledore is just too overdramatic.
I thought they skipped too much. I know it was a long long book, but they could have had half an hour more of movie.
Overall, I loved it. My favorite movie yet.
I am more afraid now that Snape is bad and that Harry will die in book seven. Is it 2007 yet?
