If you saw the clip from OotP where the Guards come to take Harry to Grimmauld place, you notice that like they all fly like right through London or whatever. In the book, they become invisible and stay in the clouds. So, why in the move are they flying by skyscrapers and over water. Doesn't that ruin the whole Statue of Secrey that Harry gets in trouble for by using a Patronus in front of Dudley, but they can fly on broomsticks in front of people?

yes...it is a thread. good job moody. lol what was the point of that?

I think it comes down to the special effects crew or screen writer going "wouldn't this look cool" and not thinking about it.

i guess that the people involved in the movie said "guess itll be a little hard to have invisible people on the screen", so they decided to change this scene

i dont want to say anything... maybe they are invisible (some spells) and this is not show in the traler... i think that Voldemort in station is a good idea... that small fact shows so many things... so i dont think that all these inadequacy things are bad for film...

chameleon you mean? and I hope voldy!inthestation is just Harry's paranoia, because if he's really there I'm going to pitch a fit.

I think they are flying visibly because the director thought, hey this would look cool. And actually Harry was the only one who was invisible. That's why they were flying so high, so the rest of them wouldn't be seen. They couldn't all be invisible, otherwise how would Harry have been able to see them when flying. Moody made him invisible for added security.
