Tut tut tut. I thought this movie was a disgrace, how could JK have let this happen? Crying or Very sad If you have read the books, I beg you, please do not waste your money! To me, the movie was like some one made the movie out of a synopsis, an incorrect synopsis. So many things were left out, the most outrageous of which:
Spoiler:

Hermione and Ron were not Prefects. Grawp had a crush on Hermione, and understood when Hermione told him to put her down. Ron met Grawp. There was no Quidditch. Fred and George's swamp was totally left out. Harry and Cho didn't just kiss, the made out! Luna was obsessed with Nargles. Hagrid didn't teach. Divination teacher was not sacked, nor was Hagrid. Hagrid didn't tell his giant story. The Educational Decrees went up as high as #112... So much more, it was outrageous! So I say again, if you have read the books, don't waste your money on this rubbi9sh of a movie. And I mean that. I really do.



Use spoiler tags, please. - of the lore.

1. Yes you're right they did in both the movie and the book.
2. Yes she was if you watched all the movie there was a complete scene that was about her being sacked.
3. He told part of it.

I wouldn't go THAT far and saying the movie was a huge dissapointment. I mean when are they ever really good? Seriously. If you expect everything to be fit in the move it would be HOURRRSSS. It wasn't the best, but I thought it was better than GoF and Cos. Althought my favorite of all time was PoA.

Things had to be cut!! If you can't accept that and are gonna be disappointed when they miss things then you should never have gone and seen it. it's not like PS, CoS, PoA or GoF were an actact match to the book.

I for one even if everyone else didn't, LOVED this film. The best so far. I don't know what your bellyaching for anyways it 's not like the book was awesome!

honestly, ive come to realize that the only way people can enjoy these HP movies is if they have never read the books...the movies are horrible compared to the books, thats why ive decided im not going to wasted my money on seeing the 6th and 7th movies when they come out.

GoF and PoA were not exact matches at all, because they were longer and it would be too much to make into movie format.

the entire Barty Crouch Sr./Jr. storyline was almost not even in the movie.

2. At the end Voldemort was not supposed to go into Harry's body and try an take him over.
3. Sirius was not supposed to fall through water like supstence he was suposed to fall through a curtain and it never said wether bella said the killing curse in the book.. it just sad a spell hit him.
4. Harry never gave the Prophecy to Lucius in the book.
5. Hermione got hit with a spell in the book, In the movie she never did.

OOTP is probably my least favorite book but the movie was very pleasing for me.

As far as Snape, I wasn't responding to that. But Snape is the real Dark Lord, he's a triple agent for himself. Wink
