Oh goodness, "I am the Half-Blood prince," was SUCH A FAIL. Snape could come up with a cooler way to say that, I know he could.

AND- the film makers KEEP giving JKR the option to end stuff off with a "Unity is good," message, like the end of this film. SO WHY, OH WHY, DOES SHE IGNORE IT??? D8

ALAN RICKMAN'S REACTION TO THE "HE TRUSTED YOU!" LINE WAS 5 SECONDS OF FABBBULLLOOOOUUSS ACTING.

You know, for some reason I pictured Cissy being way more attractive in the book...I know that sounds really shallow but, dude, WTF was up with her hair?!

YES! Bella was completely awesome! My two favorite scenes with her was when she was smashing things in the Great Hall, and when right after she set Hagrid's house on fire, she starts skipping around and laughing like a lunatic.

Greyback was cool, and they did do a good job of making him really terrifying.

Allan Rickman did well, and I could hear Grace squeeing whenever he came on screen.

Dork!Harry was absolutely adorable in the movie <3. I'm sorry, but when he drank the lucky potion and was acting all cheerful and happy, it was kind of lovable. Harry in the book, I like him and all, but he does get annoying at times. I liked him a lot more in the first four books. After the fifth one when he got angry over everything, I started liking him a lot less. However, I didn't really get that feeling when watching the movie, and I do like Dan. I think that's mostly because in the ( ... )

This is pretty much all I can think about during that scene. XD

Really, the thing with Tonks/Remus is that Tonks is all like WAHHHH I LOVE YOU WAAAAAAARGH and NOT ONLY does Remus give a whole lot of, you know, logical and completely correct reasons why they can't be together, but he never gives any indication that he's in love with her. AND everyone's super mad about it for, I don't know, being ~logical~ instead of jumping her bones and snogging her wildly.

(YAAAAAY I'M WATCHING OURAN)

That comic is XD.

I think he must feel something for her Olivia, I mean they did have a kid together...;D On a completely serious note, I always thought he would have said something to her if he didn't feel the same...

OMG YOU'RE WATCHING OURAN? WHICH EPISODE?

THE GRADE SCHOOL HOST IS THE NAUGHTY TYPE! Man I love those exactly-what-it-says-on-the-tin titles. XD It's... kind of the episode I always forget about, but it does have some very funny moments.

What the hell was up with the scene at the beginning with Harry flirting with that random girl? Was that really necassary?

There were some really funny awkward moments, but I felt as if there were too many of them. The thing is, Harry Potter has a lot of quirky humor, and sometimes the movies hit it spot on, and other times I feel like they substitute it with awkward scenes that are admittedly funny, but also succeded in just making everyone watching it feel awkward as well.

The ending was stupid, although the scene with Fawkes flying away was a nice touch.
