WOW!! YOU ARE SO LUCKY!!
They took out the funeral, im kinda shocked but then again im not. How does the ending and beginning play out? Also do they show Dumbledores grave? Is there another minister and is Rufus Scrimgeour(sp?) in the movie? How is Narcissa portrayed in the movie? Do they go to Diagon Alley? Does the whole train scene happen? How are the locket and Ron's attack? Are there any hospital wing scenes? Is the part where Hermione send birds after Ron in the movie?\ Do Harry and Dumbledore fly to Hogwarts like in the book? Is Rosmerta under Dracos spell? What was one thing that they cut that you are not that happy about?

wow thanks for all of the info. i feel better now. it sounded like this amazing movie that they actually got completely right for once, but now i realize that it is just as bad as the others albeit slightly better. i feel better about having to wait until july to see this now. i still would have loved to see it though. you are so lucky.

Wow! So unexpected for there to be a test screening so soon!
So, questions: Is the line, "I am not worried, harry. I am with you." in and how is it delivered? Does Slughorn's character change benefit the movie? What is the pacing like with the kiss in between Sectumsempra? Do we hear of the other Quidditch games at all? Does the overall plot of the series come more apparant? Is the wedding mentioned at all? how does the movie start? What is this waitress scene all about? how does the movie end? |

The movie opens with a scene from OOTP, of Dumbledore and Harry at the ministry on the night Sirius dies, standing in front of a barrage of flash bulbs. Then it cuts to an interior shot of an ultra modern office building overlooking the Millenium Bridge. There are dementors flying through the air and then the bridge starts to wave violently and then collapses with lots of people on it.
In the next scene we see Harry reading about the bridge in the Daily Prophet at a tube-side coffee shop in Little Whinging. He flirts with the waitress and asks her what time she gets off work. But he is distracted by a passing train. When the train finally clears out, we see Dumbledore standing importantly on the platform. Harry joins him and immediately he is whisked away (side-along apparition) to Slughorn’s house. Hang on I am writing a brief report for Leaky I promise to be back with more info shortly... edited by moderator to merge consecutive posts This post has been edited by Harry's Horntail: Sep 6 2008, 09:48 PM -------------------- |

Could you explain how the Ron/Hermione storyline was developed in this movie? Did they share any moments?
When Ron breaks up with Lavender, did it happen like it did in the book or were there changes? If so, what were they? During the Felix Felicis scene when Harry pretends to spike Ron's drink, did that scene happen like it did in the book with Hermione warning him not to drink it? Did Harry and Ron catch Ginny with Dean, which then lead to the heated exchange between Ginny and Ron in the book... did that happen in the movie too? THANKS FOR ANSWERING ALL THESE QUESTIONS! |
