Therefore, I believe that all hope of contacting sirius is gone, unless there's also a painting of him somewhere about that Kreacher's hidden.

Oh, and I thought that Lunas statement was also a hint for the last book.

Harry tried the mirror at the end of the book. It didn't work and he smashed it. (Just finished reading it yesterday).

Not quite yet. Only just turned 17.

I finally saw the new film on Saturday. I deffinitely liked it, and loved some parts of it, but overall didn't love the whole film. I think they would have only needed to add about 20 minutes or so, and things would have been clearer and less rushed for me.

Casting continued to be fabulous, and I agree with most here that the younger cast members are improving with each performance.

I think my favortie moment of the film was Harry and Sirius fighting side by side. My biggest dissapointment was a lack of emotional impact, for me anyway, when Sirius died. He's one of my favorite characters in the franchise, so I should have felt something there, but I didn't. Wether it was poorly set up over the course of the film or rushed in the moment it happened I'm not sure, but something was deffinitely missing for me.
