I absolutely loved the movie, and it might have been the best Harry Potter movie so far. However, there were a few things I would change. The scene with Harry and Dudley is one. Yes, yes, I know that a million people have already touched upon this, but it really disappointed me. I loved that scene. I think that what Dudley said, no matter how stupidly he said it, was really what Dudley needed, and it made him realise that Harry was more than a punching bag and he really grew up a little. I didn't like how they just CUT it from the movie. So then there was another really protested cut, the one where Wormtail gets killed. Sick as this may sound, I loved it when he died. Ever since Pettigrew first betrayed james 16 years ago up until now, he has been unlike all death eaters. He never sought power or death or destruction. He was just scared. He was a coward up until his death scene, where he finally took a stand and showed a shred of nobility that cost him his life. Now the scenes I LIKED: Dobby's death. Yeah, here I am being sadistic again, but they beautifully crafted another one of my favorite scenes. To be honest, what kills me about that scene was the fact that Harry made Dobby promise to never try to save his life again at the end of book 2, and Dobby comes bursting in and saves the day. I don't think the promise just simply slipped the elf's mind. I think that this was a total reflection on Dobby's freedom, and how no matter what your told, sometimes you gotta make an exception if you know that those rules won't apply. Sorry I keep jabbering on about all this; but I think that too often we Harry Potter fans take JK Rowlings words for granted and don't really appreciate their meaning. Point is, great movie, amazing book, can't wait for part 2.
