So, I totally enjoyed it, guys. Like, also PINCERS. *CLICKING NOISES* That will be amazing forever, okay.
HERE ARE SOME THINGS ABOUT IT:
Draco. ♥ GOSH DRACO. HEARTS. UGH. OH MY GOD. Every time he did the SWOOOOOSHY thing with the drape over the Vanishing Cabinet I was like AHHHHHHH HEART EXPLODING. saf;lksafoka;falf' sla;fka;jg;l I love how the majority of the film was either about wanting to unfunf or every angsty Draco fic ever, okay, I LOVED THAT I DON'T CARE. HIS FATHER'S CANE. ALKSFJLAKSFJLA Ascended Fanon is the best shit ever, okay. and omg D: D: D: D: D: D: guys, his face, when Bella smashed up the Great Hall, ohhhhmygod. a;slfk;akfa;fslfk;a
(also sidenote: I was eating a peanut M&M at that part and I got so emotional I like SQUEEZED the M&M and it went flying and hit some poor dude on the back of the head OH MY GOD EMBARRASSED. just. fml. srs)
Quidditch was A++++++ - Ron was amazing on GIANT DONG BROOM.
Also can I just say like, how much I appreciate little glimpses of the Trio, but especially Ron and Harry being like, NORMAL FRIENDS. Like when Harry and Ron were scrambling for the new Potions text and Ron is like WAAAH GOT IT \O/ and Harry is like >:| and then SMACKS HIM ON THE WRIST ahahaha. amazing.
Y SECTUMSEMPRA SCENE NOT LONGER. D: Actually no, it was really satisfying, except like, no Crucio? Harry, you just look like a dickhead, now. DON'T YOU. ugh, sectumsempra scene ♥.
Slughorn: Harry.
Harry: ~~~Sir.
Me: \o/
CAVE SCENE MILDLY DISAPPOINTING.
Snape, ahahaha, scenery chewer ilu.
BB Tom Riddle, amaaaaaaazing.
I mean, everyone has basically said this already so I won't really bust major CAPSFACE on you, but like, what was with the somewhat important dropped plotpoints? Like, auuuuugh Half-Blood Prince, idek, why do we care who you are? We don't, clearly. Also, why not tell us who Greyback is? IDGI, all this quality creepy screentime and you're not going to slip us that juicy throwaway about him EATING LITTLE KIDS AND SCREWING UP REMUS LUPIN'S LIFE WHYYY.
Also speaking of Remus, I'm sort of soothed by the fact that they got the jump on him being a dickhead for DH. FINE. WHATEVER. I give up.
I keep getting book and movie plot confused in my head now, so I'm not even going to go into like, actual plot things, like dropped threads and things moved around, i couldn't even really care, tbh, cause it was pretty amazing as it, just like, holy crap the entire theatre was in hysterics when Ginny was like "shoelace," BENDS DOWN. GOSSSSH, BLOWJOBS.
Also really intrigued by Harry's ability to move in Tower!Scene, rather than like, duh, total paralysis, thus preventing him from beating Snape about the head with a gigantic stick or something. Haven't quite figured that one out yet.
UGGGH I WAS SO SAD THE GAUNTS WERE NOT IN THIS D:
ALSO WHERE WAS NO NEED TO CALL ME SIR, PROFESSOR. BUMMER.
And this is probably just for me and
yeats, but like, we saw a glimpse of Regulus and I was like a;fgipasofk;asfk eeeeeeee but it looks like he was captain of the Quidditch team or some shit idk :-? SO BASICALLY THE MOVIE CONTINUE TO SUBVERT OUR SICKLY INBRED REGULUS CANON LAH. w/e. HANDS.
But seriously, it was really beautiful, and well shot. ♥ I can't wait to own this movie so I can MST3K the shit out of it.
Edit: There was also this glorious moment, where Harry touches the ring, and he gets VOLDIEFLASHES and then does the fucking headrollneckcrack and Dumbledore sort of looks at him, and there is this moment of OHHHH SHIT SON. And that is exactly what happened in the theatre: my non-book reading friend leans over THREE PEOPLE to whisper very loudly OHHHHH SHIT IS HARRY A HORCRUX OH MY GOD. Ahahahaha /o\
