Harry Potter...

-I took my cousins to the midnight showing and it was totally worth it.
-The visual effects were amazing. The cave with the dead people and Dumbledore's fire, destruction of London, the vanishing cabinet, everything relating to Death Eaters...
-The casting was fabulous.  The kid who played teenage-aged Tom Riddle blew my mind.  Helena Bonham Carter is still freakin' spellbinding as Bellatrix, and I loved just looking at Narcissa.  Though, she shoulda been all blonde.
- It was hilarious. 
-The Weasley's shop=fascinating.
-Michael Gambon as Dumbledore.  Everybody seems to be hatin' on him as Dumbledore, which I don't get because I like him way better than the first one.

-They didn't really say much of anything about the Half-Blood Prince. So, that was...interesting.
-I think they cut out a bunch of flashbacks re: Voldemort.  Wasn't this the one with all the stuff about his parents?  Shouldn't that have been in here? Cuz it's like...IMPORTANT.
-There was a too much time spent on everyone's libido.  They're horny teenagers. We get it. Can you just tell the actual story now?
-They cut out Dumbledore's funeral.  WTF?!  He's only like the most important character behind Harry and Voldemort.  Maybe some grief/rememberance/tribute is in order?  
-There was no Bill.  I'm not particularly sad about missing out on the "romance" between him and Fleur (or between Remus and Tonks, frankly), but I wanna see him.

In any case, I'm sure I'll be seeing it about six more times.
