Yes, the comedic elements have improved, apparently at the expense of the tension/drama elements.

Thanks for bringing this up, I had it in my notes but left it out for some off reason. Anyway, this was really the crux of the problem for me – this movie was equal parts bad and good. Very conflicting feelings.

I must have been REALLY tired and out of it because you and one other person have already talked about crushing Hermione while my impression wasn’t that deep. Sucketh. Have to rewatch for sure.

And just realised I do not have OotP on DVD. This is unacceptable.

For the record, my crush on Movie Hermione is finally starting to rival that of my crush on Dan.

The Oppugno! scene never worked in my head, but it worked on screen just fabulous.

Where your spoiler warning?

Agree that the OotP opening was much stronger. The scene with the cut to complete silence in OotP when Harry realizes Sirius is gone – there’s nothing to equal that in HBP.

Did NOT like Narcissa’s Cruella De Ville hair. But then I’ve always thought of Narcissa as almost Fleur-like in built.
