I could always start. But I am lazy right now and slightly tired after bowling 5 games in a row. I hope we have another trailer! That would be mega awesome. I loathed the fourth one. It was bad. I have a few reasons: - Wrong Dress Color
- Still Blue eyes on Harry
- No World Cup play
- No Weasleby
- Left a lot out
- Some of the comebacks sucked
- Didn't get to hear the funny conversation at the Cup with the two men
The fifth was alright, but could have been better. Kind of like the Epilogue. It was okay, but could have been tons better. ;D

I enjoyed the 4th movie but I do have to agree there was alot left out of it. I didn't so much care about the dress color. I understand that Dan can't wear contacts but you would think with all the technology they would be able to some how make them green.
The World Cup was just too short. I would have liked for them to have run into Oliver Wood.
The fifth I just didn't care for the book that much because it was Harry mean stage. He was just so angry in the book that I was looking for more of that in the movie.

I know, I wish they incorporated that more. I thought of another thing I didn't like about the movie: Dumbledore attacking Harry. He didn't do that in the book so why would he rush up to him and shake him by the shoulders and demand how his name got in the cup. I always thought he remained calm for the most part... I bet they can do something about the eye color but either: A. don't want to spend the money or B. lazy or C. there really isn't a way [although I agree with today's technology you would think we could] I just put the dress because I wanted a semi long list. ;D I would have loved to seen Oliver again! We haven't seen him in the third. Well maybe the third but briefly and I don't remember. He is cool and I liked him. And I wanted to see how the Irish decorated their camp, because the way it was described was pretty cool. This is what I want to see in HBP: - Sluggy's club [you know you want to too]
- Malfoy's convo and breaking Harry's nose
- Tonk's patronus
- Apparation
- Katie when she was affected by the potion
- Rosemerta Imperio-ed
- Kiss after the Quidditch Win
- Ron poisoned [but we established he would most likely get poisoned]
- Most if not all memories
- Hermione attacking Ron
- Lav-Lav
- Unbreakable Vow [although in Narcissa is in there then it will probably be in there]
- Most of the Cave
- All of the battle [just because it was intense]
- Tonk's shouting match
- Fluer's defining moment to show Molly she cares
- Meeting about Phem
- Dumbledore's meeting with the Dursleys
- How the DE's got there
- Draco's convo with Dumbledore and Myrtle
- Wandless magic [or just classes with Snape]
- Roonil Wazlib
- One of Suggy's Classes [preferably when Harry gets the Felix stuff]
- Harry and Mundungus's encounter [that was cool]
- Ginny and Ron's yelling match after Harry and Ron found them snogging [No bathrobe in that...]
- Scrimgeour talking w/ Harry
That was a long list. Oh well, I know most of it won't make it but I can hope!

I agree with GoF, there was a lot cut out. I think that there has to be some way for them to change Dan's eye color (is there a reason that he can't wear colored contacts??).
Also I wanted to see the part in the compartment when Hermione shows them Rita in her beetle form (I know it's not that important of a part but I found it funny)
I hope to see all those events in HBP to but I've heard somewhere that Fleur is not going to be in the movie, has anyone else heard this??

Yea I heard about it. Here's a site I found with the rumored names that weren't going to appear. Some of them I thought were stupid as they played a significant part in the battle and understanding key parts. .: Emma Thompson Cut From HBP [Rumored Others]:. Here's who they listed. I am going to do some digging to see if there is any truth to it besides no Trelawney. - Fleur
[confirmed; not listed on cast list courtesy of IMDB]
- Bill
[confirmed; not listed on cast list courtesy of IMDB]
- Percy
[confirmed; not listed on cast list courtesy of IMDB]
- Gaunts
[confirmed; not listed on cast list courtesy of IMDB]
- Trelawney
[confirmed]
- Hepzibah Smith
[confirmed; not listed on cast list courtesy of IMDB]
But if you go to IMDB and search for the cast it will have a few side characters like Nigel listed, but not any of them. They will have Greyback and a few other DE's as well.

I think I will be rather stupid of them not to have Bill in at least HBP movie because what are they going to explain Fleur (who, in the movies, we haven't seen since year 4) and Bill's wedding (who has never been in the movie, except briefly mentioned). I mean are they going to show what happened to his face or what? That just doesn't make since to me...

Wow you guys sure have done a lot of research.. I have to agree with everything you have said about wanting all that in there.
I figured that Fluer wasn't going to be in there because they never showed Bill and her meeting. I will miss it because of the comedy of that stuff. I have looked at IMDB and have noticed certain people not being in the film. I am starting to get use to that too..
I think that in the first movie that Dan tried to wear green contacts and his eyes got irrated by them. Considering how young he was I guess they didn't want to injure him. I wouldn't be surprised if he just couldn't get them into his eyes so they didn't make him wear them. I still think they can do something but maybe they have tried and it doesn't look right or they just figure it doesn't matter because of all the other movies he still has blue eyes.
If you think about it, they are able to make black and white movies into color by doing something to them so I don't see why they can't do it to his eyes.
I think Ron will be poisoned and we will see it since it is in the trailer. I have seen him with the box of chocolates so I think that will be in there too.
I am not happy to hear that some of the memories are not going to be there. I could see maybe cutting some of them short but not cut them out completely. They better have that Unbreakable vow. That is one of the most important parts in the movie. That is just so important for the battle on the tower when dumbledore dies. I hope they don't cut that.
I just don't see how they can make this movie short. I think they need to realize how the fans will react if it is only 2 hours long. With all the action time will fly that you won't notice how long it is.
Okay I think I have rambled on long enough...

Oh, if they take out the memories, that will make many fans (including me) very annoyed. How can you take such important events out? If they cut these out the people who haven't read the books will have no idea about what is going on in the 7th movies. They really need to realize that fans will want to see these events and just casual fans will want to know what on earth is going on.
I honestly think that since Warner Brother's is such a big company, they could have just put a little more money, not even a lot, into changing his eye color.

Honestly I think they just don't want to spend the money. Like you said Monica, if they can make black to color then the should be able to change color.
Not having Bill and Fleur will most likely lead to no wedding, which I was looking forward to seeing. Also why is Nigel in it when he is such a minor thing when we don't have the Gaunts, which is totally stupid because that is Voldy's mother, uncle and grandfather! They play a roll not matter how small because that was when the ring was introduced.
If they leave too much out I will protest and send letters. This is essentially one of the most important books and has much to offer, and if you cut too much, you will be leaving those who don't read the books utterly clueless and deprived of a good story.
Back to the eye color thing. His eyes define him. That is how everyone knows he isn't James Potter. His scar is mostly hidden by his hair, and everyones states that he has Lily's eyes.
It is also kind of pointless to have Greyback. He didn't play a big roll other than attacking Bill if memory serves me correct. *sigh* I really need to re-read! I think I'll start that tonight.

Okay, remember us talking about Harry's eye color well I was just looking at a magazine and there is a picture in there of Harry from OOTP. IT is the one when Voldemort poses him. If you will remember his eyes changed color. I can't really be sure what color as I look at the picture. If I can find away to get it on to my computer I will up load it and let you guys decide. Or if I can find a copy of it on line I will also try doing it that way. Well my point is if they can change Harry's eye color there to show that he is possessed by Voldemort then why can't they change his eye color to be the green..
I do hope that they keep in the part Narcissa and Snape. Reading the mag it is mentioned about her plotting with Snape to keep Draco safe. This is exactly what is written: To protect him from Voldemort, Draco's mother, Narcissa, secretly plots with Snape to keep her son out of danger's way. So I don't know if that means that they make an agreement without Bellatrix or if maybe we will see the Unbreakable vow.
I just hope that means that it will some how be in the movie..

That's a really good point, Monica. Since they did change Dan's eye color in OotP, it proves that they can change it. Sadly, I think that they just don't care about details in the movies when they should.
I hope that the Unbreakable Vow is not cute out either, because that will be such a cool scene to see and I want to see stupid little Pettigrew get ordered around by Snape for some reason lol
Is the Nigel you're talking about the same little boy that was in the D.A in OotP?? If so then that is really stupid of them to put him in when I don't even remember him the books, but take out Fleur and Bill...*sighs* These casting directors need some help...

The worst thing is that J.K. Rowling is also in on the decisions. She wouldn't let them cut Kreacher because she said he will be seen again in the series. So I don't see why she doesn't say anything. She knows how her die hard fans are and how we will scrutinize every little thing about the movies..

I agree with you Monica. She knows that there is a lot of stuff missing that will make some die hard fans disappointed. I like to think that she really does try to get as much as she can in the movies, but who knows.

Yes I have to agree with you there Megan.. I think she does try but I guess some one else has the final say. Plus maybe when it is put on film it doesn't turn out the way they thought it would so they decided to get rid of it.

That could be. I don't know. It sounds stupid to me. J.K. probably does all she can, but like you said someone else has the final say.
Sounds to me like there will be that scene, which is really cool in my head. That and I also want to see Pettigrew get pushed around. ;D
I had totally forgot about his eyes changing color in the movie! Honestly, I think they just don't want to spend the extra money to make fans happy.
Yes that Nigel. I'm with you, don't remember him at all. And if he isn't in the books, why have him? Bill and Fleur were in there! Bah, I don't know what to think anymore.
