Well, if all that stuff with the horcrux happened (which it still would have to) and Harry died (which it still would have to) and the only thing that's different is that Harry didn't taunt Voldie at the end with that little circle thing and all that "ohhh Tom Riddle" which personally I think was out of character, then sure I really think I'd be okay with it.
I'd do that. No way would I risk my neck MORE, just to have a head on battle.
And come the flip on. The very end, Harry kills Voldemort with 'expelliarmus'. I WANTED HIM TO GROW UP...and just once use Avada Kedavra. D=

GUYS. GUYSSS.
I ACTUALLY REALLY REALLY LIKED IT! and I'll tell you all about my adventures and likes and dislikes and lolz and everything in the morning!<3
EDIT. ok my... analysis so to speak. hahaha
WHAT I LIKED. - The humor. haha I laughed a lot! But, at some points, I thought they were pushing it a bit. Like Dumbledore with a knitting magazine ha. - Draco was pretty brilliant - Arnold the pygmy puff came out cute! And I LOVEDDD WWW<3 and the Twin's actors got better looking haha. - Luna Lovegood, because she's amazing once again. - Snapeeeeeee cause I love me some Alan Rickman. - I was so happy to see Hogwarts looking cheerier again! It looked so much nicer than the last couple movies. - Slughorn's actor was awesome, he did a great job - Aragog burial scene was great - I really liked how they did the pensieve memories. The effects were really nice, and young Tom was a great character! - They didn't stray a whole ton from the book. The preveiw with the bridge had worried me at first cause I thought it would be major, but it wasn't<3 - Cormac was a cutieee lolz - I loved the scene with Ron and the love potion SO MUCH. hahhahaa<3
WHAT I DISLIKED. - first off, my biggest peeve was the total lack of battle scene in the end? wtf? There could have been SOMETHING that was battlish, instead of well, nothing really but Snape. - No Bill/Fluer. Like, at all. Ughhh it really saddens me that they aren't in on it at all, especially cause of how important they are in the 7th book. I'm really really scared now that if they do a wedding it will be Tonks/Remus :x and then there will be no Dobby burial at shell cottage? hkdefggsk - Cissa wasn't pretty. She was supposed to be pretty! and all blond! - Personally, I hate Remus/Tonks. I think its a horrid match haha. I mean, I love both the characters, just not together. And Tonks didn't have fun hair or anything. - I hated at the end when Harry and Hermione are all serious business about the locket, and all the sudden Hermione is like oh lolz btw, Ron approves of yous. They just kinda through it out there in the middle of a supposed to be serious talk. - A lot of the times, the pictures didn't seem to move?
THE LOLZ - Harry's freaking scar. Was it even there most of the time?! I never ever saw it on his head until his hair was blowing in the wind on the rock, and when I did it was horridly off center haha. - DRACO HAD THE PIMP CANE. hahahaha oh goddd Neco you'll prolly get my lolz at that the most. It reminds me of a certain avatar that I have and then that little graphic you did haha and I was dieing when I saw it when they were checking his bags. Shacka Lacka Swishhhhh <3 - Bella was like... cracked out half the time haha. - I apparently such at telling the races of characters or something. I always pictured the Patil twins as Indian-ish, Lavander as African American, Katie with Blond hair, Pansy with black hair.. - The inferious part. It was like... I knew it was coming but I still jumped like a foot in there air xD - how dareee they play a twilight trailer before HP! Haha the theater was mixed, a lot let out a collective groan, but some clapped happily. - When the movie started at first, it got SO QUITE. And I'm one of those people who wants to laugh when it gets really really quite aha.
I'm not sure what I thought on the attack at the burrow. I liked Bella in it, and the whole "I killed Sirius Black" bit, but other than that I thought it was pretty unnecessary? And I really didn't like the Burrow being in the middle of nowhere anyway heh.

YOU BEAT ME. because I didn't get home until like 4:30 and my dad was down there and I seriously doubt I could have just been like "hey, mind if I pop on for a tad?" xD
LIKED
Bella Bella Bella. I hate her and love her at the exact same time. Hellena Boham Carter is PERFECT. That 'I killed Sirius Black' part was brilliant but I was kind of mad and squeezing my boyfriend's arm off, haha!
Draco angst!
The twins got a lot better looking and WWW was great too!
The humor was excellent, because even the person I went with who said he really really didn't like Harry Potter said it was cool because they added simple jokes he could understand. (and I liked the knitting pattern part. I think it's actually in the book. =O)
Luna fantastic, although Tonks should have been the one to find him in the train. >.>
Snape FANTASTIC, as always.
The pensieve effects were great
Cormac WAS a cutie<3333
and finally, the love potion scene was exactly the way I pictured it.
BADNESS
PICTURES. hello? Not moving unless focusing directly on it. It was bugging me the entire time.
Harry was kind of a ho. All up on the ladies...out of character!
I still don't like the new Dumbledore. >.< Now I won't have to, haha.
No battle scene. I knew it was coming but it still upset me. That whole dramatic walk through. Why is nobody stopping them? They bothered to show DA in the last movie. It would've been so easy to add them in.
If only they took out scenes we don't need, then fine. But it's kind of hypocritical to say that they don't have enough time, because at the same time they're adding in stuff they don't need. We didn't need that scene of the Burrow. We didn't need 30 minutes of Slughorn teaching potions, etc, etc. They could've put in stuff we NEEDED and taken out stuff that they added. That whole thing in the beginning was horrible. With that girl and Harry being a perv. Are they taking the Dursleys out now too!? Because that IS important!
Harry only has his invisibility cloak ONCE. He should've had it at LEAST three more times (Watching Draco in Borgin and Burkes ---> THEY DIDN'T HEAR WHAT THEY WERE SAYING, watching Draco/Snape at Slughorn's party, and watching Dumbledore die!). And it made the Dumbledore battle scene so much less dramatic. I think the way Chris Columbus portrayed the cloak was perfect. Just do views from underneath so you can see thin lining. We're not dull, we understand other people can't see.
No Dobby, no 7th.
No Bill/Fleur
Cissy wasn't pretty at all. She was before, but she's supposed to be abnormally thin right? Did they get someone else?
The things that were important looked really cheap or just not like I pictured. The locket, the necklace...
I didn't like Slughorn. He looked way different than I expected and was a pretty bad actor compared to how he should act in the book, etc..
The Burrow. D= Did it look different in the beginning than when it was burning at the end to anyone else? And they were supposed to have neighbors that they always threw the gnomes onto didn't they?
I didn't like Tom Riddle. He was...different, than I pictured. A little pudgier, and way different than Chamber of Secrets Riddle. He wasn't really a good actor either. I kind of pictured him to be a little more whispery and like "I see dead people" about making others hurt. He seemed too...blank. I would have pictured him with more... energy? lol
Lots of badddd acting.
OTHER
Did Ginny's hair change color? I could have sworn it was really dark brown at the beginning.
Did they switch Tonks? She looks so different. (and Kenzie, she's supposed to have dark normal looking hair throughout the entire 6th because of the whole sadness, her patronus changing, etc. "mousy brown hair" or something is always her description until her and Remus stop pining for eachother.)
And also, I think Harry's scar is always off center in the movies? But I know what you mean, I don't think he had it the entire time! I only saw it at sporadic times.
I was sitting there like "oh gosh oh gosh Inferi" and I knew they were coming and saw it happening exactly the way they did it and STILL jumped almost completely out of my chair. XD
With all the stuff they changed/left out, they're never going to make even a semi-decent 7th/8th movie compared to the book. They took out Dobby (who rescues them), no Bill/Fleur, no introducing Tonks/Remus, or much Fenrir ---> the biting, or the MIRROR to which Aberforth saves Harry twice.
and so sooooo much moreeeeeeeeee.

I SHOULD NOT BE READING THIS CAUSE I HAVEN'T SEEN THE MOVIE YET. But I did think the Inferi that I saw in the commercial looked like the vamps from I Am Legend and I was like OH MY GOD WHERE IS YOUR WILL SMITH NOW?!
Hahaha I'm actually not really holding my breath about this movie. I was so disappointed with the last one that I'm just like ehhhhh. But I dunno.

OH HEY I really did not like it all >>
I was bored the entire movie and just felt it was so empty compared to the other movies, and the only thing that really happened was the ending... and even that was watered down massively. I just loved the way Bella was bat insane and was skipping across the tables and blowing things up. And her giggling like a school girl when she sets fire to Hagrid's house.
There was some good humor but I feel like it couldn't save the movie, haha. There was just so many unnecessary things that put in, and cutting out Dumbledore's funeral, which plays a big part in the next book... wtf David Yates. Wtf.
Other things I found wtf:
- The whole 80s rock ballad at the end with everyone and their wands. I was getting teary when Dumbledore died... then I started cracking up because everyone lighted their wands.
- Fawkes at the end. I seriously thought at first it was like a guy dressed up as a bird as he was flying... then the CGI stopped being blurry haha.
- They NEVER freakin said who the girl that was hanging off Ron was. The whole movie I was like WHO ARE YOU. And was that Tonks in the Burrow? Because again... yeah who was that?
- The lack of a fight scene at the end. They just skipped merrily through the hallways?
- The Burrow just like... nothing. It looked so fake when it was on fire, haha.
- The random opening with the chick and HP getting his pic taken. Can anyone explain what that was? ;__;
I have so much about this movie I really didn't like lol. And I didn't realize that Aragog dies in this book? And... I thought he was bigger D:
But I dunno. The part with Katie I really liked [lol Exorcistttt] and the creepy things in the water when they were getting the locket. I was like OH MY GOD VAMPIRES WHERE IS WILL SMITH!!! but then they reminded me of Gollum from LOTR and I wanted one to scream MY PRECIOUSSSSS when they took the locket lololol.
The effects were nice and I really liked the soundtrack so I may get that... but I will not be buying this on the Blu-Ray.
