Just got back from seeing Harry Potter so I must post about it all before I forget it all.
Everything Ron/Hermione was just PERFECTION! -
The hug!
“Always the tone of surprise” x2
“Leave without Hermione? We wouldn’t last two days without her! Don’t tell her I said that.”
The bit where he looked at her at the wedding (*dies*) although I wish they’d gotten a dance The cheek touch (*dies again*)
The piano bit (*dies a third time*)
They showed the almost holding hands bit, yay!
Sad!Hermione after Ron leaves, Emma was really good at conveying all that.
The speech - ” My name. Just my name. Like a whisper. So I took it, clicked it, and this tiny ball of light appeared. And I knew. And sure enough, it floated toward me, the ball of light went right into my chest. Straight through me. Right here. I knew it was going to take me where I needed to go.”
The cuddling/comforting at Shell Cottage/Dobby’s funeral.
The only thing that wasn’t perfect was Ron didn’t scream enough while Hermione was being tortured, but that’s just me being nitpicky.
NEVILLE!! Calling the Death Eaters losers, oh I love him so!!
Ron/Rupert! I love him, I love him, I love him! I loved getting to see him destroy the locket, I felt all proud, hee. And Rupert has become a really great actor.
I didn’t hate the dance scene, and I did smile through (most) of it, but it was just so unnecessary. Of all the things not in the book that they felt the need to add, why that?
I also didn’t like that they cut out the “she’s like a sister to me” bit, after the dance it needed saying. I do LOVE Harry/Hermione as friends, but NOTHING more.
This is more a complaint about the other films, but because they cut out important things in them, like the battle at Hogwarts at the end of six, this was the first time we’d met Bill, and apparently the first time Harry had met him, and that whole bit really bugged me.
Fred and George as always were amazing, and they kept the holey bit :)
The Three Brothers animaton was so amazingly done.
There wasn't enough of Kreacher, but yay for Dobby! But his death was so sad.
I'm sure there's more, but I really need to watch it again to take it all in.
Things I want from Part 2:
The Kiss needs to be AMAZING, out of everything from the books that is the main thing that has to be done exactly right.
I'd really rather not watch it, 'cos I will cry, but Fred's death needs to be epic and heartbreaking.
Snape's memories also needs to be epic and heartbreaking, that's one of my favourite bits from the books.
Neville had better be the one to kill Nagini, and be all badass, they best not change that.
