Yeah Kg, I am asking it in every movie and book because there is 7 in all u know. Evry book and every movie is different. Every book is different story..and yes, the broom was weird..

whenever hermy throws the rock to get "their" attention to leave hagrids...not in the book...i don't really care about the differences though, the movie isn't meant to be exactly the same anyway

it cannot be too faithful to the book to include everything or else we'll be having a seven-hour film. poa was faithful enough. the firebolt part, although it was added in the last part, was nevertheless put well. and at least it was as fast as how we imagined a firebolt to be.

there was also this part which jkr said was a major hint about book 7. the stuff i cant think about which are additions in the film would be when lupin was praising lily (that it makes you think he liked her) and when snape was protecting the three from the werewolf lupin (makes you think that he really is concerned about them). well, this addition is a bonus for us then. start speculating!

I hate how they left out the back story of the Marauders. They left the entire thing out, even about how they were the ones who made the map. And the importance of Harry's patronus form.

But I did like the R/Hr stuff.

I don't know. The movie made much more sense to me than the book did.

Oooh there are lots! Very Happy

Sirius gave Ron Pigwidgeon in the book and never in the movies lol. That's my fave one...

And in the movie, there is no Quidditch Cup just the match between Hupplepuff and Gryffindor.

In the movie, they said Harry fell 100 feet but in the book it's only 50

Hermione punched Draco before going to class but in the movie it is before going to Hagrid......
and lots more lol
Very Happy

The one and only time the movie surpassed the book was when harry rode buckbeak, killer stuff.

Is it just me or did Harry never realize that his patronus was a stag in the movie?
