HBP As A Precursor

The midnight premiere was a lot of fun, though I mostly abstained from the activities going around me. (WHEN DID FANS GET THIS YOUNG? I feel old.)

I went to the midnight showing last night and thought the movie was pretty good. ^^ I liked all the funny moments, especially lucky!Harry clapping his hands in girlish glee with his feet swinging in Hagrid's huge chair. And Alan Rickman was in top form. (Why is this not the Snape-and-Harry show?)

I do agree that it felt like a definite prelude into the seventh movie. I got this weird feeling at the end of the movie, like the last movie was already done and I just needed to sit for a bit before it would come up on screen. But I suppose the book had a similar tone, like the calm before a storm.

I though both Ron and Hermione were great, but unfortunately, I didn't get a sense of chemistry from Harry and Ginny. =/ I think that, along with the lack of extra confrontation at the end, were my two biggest gripes about the movie.

Oh, but the shot of Snape crouched in the water healing a Septum'd Draco? Morbid and beautiful, that.
