JEM

the opening scene, with the cameras and dumbledore pulling harry away is really great, i think it really grabs the whole concept of the news and how it is almost like a character throughout the potter books. so it was nice to just have that in there. i didnt really mind them not having the minister thing, cuz i really think they did an awesome job with the whole deatheaters attacking thing. i loved it. it really captures the pandemonium and danger that is happening in the world during the beginning of the sixth book. and plus it was really awesome looking.

the scene at the little diner was nice. it really showed that harry is growing up, and also it shows the bridge between the wizarding world and the muggle world. and plus dumbledores entrance is BEAUTIFUL. very cool and love the devine magic thing :) awesome. brilliant :) i also love the whole of dumbledore in this one. he really pulls him off so much better in this film.

i loved the aparating. it is how i imagined it. short, fast, and crazy. slughorns scene is one that i am not very proud of. i love it, especially when dumby cleans everything up. it just captureed magic in such a cool way :) the thing i didnt like was the slughorn couch entrance. i hated it. he shouldnt have looked and sounded like a transformer. it was a cringe-worthy scene :/

i love how dumbledore mentions dragon's blood!!!!!

i like jim broadbent as slughorn, i just wish he would have had the stache :/ but he does look alot like him, minus the beard.

haha like i said i love the fix scene, especially cuz dumby just flicks his want and everything moves. haha he would be able to do that so easly. :) the cute little chandelier piece under harry's shoe was cute :) just perfect. LOO!

now is a good time to mention that i loved dan in this movie. he captured harry in this one :) so much better than the last few. i love the "you look exactly like your father, except you have your mothers eyes!" thats like the most popular line in the books!!

i loved the whole slug club with the pictures and how he actually says gwenog jones captain of the hollyhead harpies :) just a cute little thingthat im glad they threw in :) im glad they thought about the fans more. REGULUS BLACK!

i love the knitting patterns thing!!! so dumbledore!!!!!!!

and then they get slughorn to go back to school by leaving :) dumby is so cleaver.

just remembered the burrow scene!!! sosososososo weasley-ish!! haaha BEST THINGEVER!!!!! LOVE LOVEL OVE LOVE!!!! just the way they interact and how they are on the stairs! so beautiful and heartwarming.

i love ginny in this movie even if she is a bit awkward. the weasleys are like my fictional family <3 i absolutely LOVE them. i always did love christmas scenes in the books when they visited the burrow :)

i love the scene with the paper on fire, its just fun and it shows us magic in a neat way. i also love the interaction of the trio.

THE SCENE WITH BELLA AND NARCISSA! BEAUTIFUL! when they were going to snapes. they actually used lines from the book, and i love helena bonham carter. she is brilliant. i liked her better in the 5th. she was much better in that one, she was scary and threatening. in the new one she isnt as good, but still good. haha. narcissa is only ok. there are small things i like about her, like her wardrobe. her hair... they really couldnt make it all blond? come on. but she was still good at actin i think. i also love that they included wormtail as snapes servant. and how snape slammedthe door on him. that was so good so glad they did that, it wasnt exactly like the book but it captured the mood. the whole snape explaining himself was a bit boring blah blah blah. maybe ive read it too much, but it was alot like the book so maybe that is why i was bored, because i was so used to it. the unbreakable vow was ok, i expected the effects to be cooler, but im not complaining.

have i ever said that i loove snape, the character and the acting :) it is just so brilliant. one of Jo's smartest creations.

LOVE WEASLEYS WIZARD WEEZES! BEATIFUL! AMAZING! HAEVENLY! I WANT TO GO THERE AND EXPLORE! UGH GOD IT IS SOSOSOSOSOSOSOSSO AMAZING! i love the whole talk about ginny dating dean. just like the book! haha and laverder saying hi! god i hate/love her! i love how it is the only open shoppe on diagon alley. awe :( poor ollivander :( he was like the man that introduced us to magic wands :(

the scene spying on draco in borgin and burkes! i like how they had them on the roof, even if it isnt from the books, it was far more adventurous. atfirst i thougght it was cheesy but it is cool.

ILOVE FENRIR GREYBACK! IT ISNT AT ALL AS I IMAGINED HIM BIT IT IS SO SCARY AND AWESOME! ESPECIALLY ALL OF THE FUR!

the train! i love the new train! and ARNOLD oh my god, he is even cuter than i imagined, but it is alot diffrent from what i imagined. it made me want a pygmy puff!

LUNA :) god i love everything about her! ugh! the quibbler giveaway!

i love the train with ron harry and hermione, it was just like a flashback to the first movie :)

i even liked the whole thing where harry sneaks into dracos compartment with the rock, that wasnt in the books but it was a cool bit of magic, and a bit more believeable than him sneaknig in with his invisibility cloak in the book. i did love it though. and pansy, she isnt as i imagined, she is too nice, but im glad that she, and a few other small characters were castedlike blaise zabini. (sp) i wish they would have made hermione and ron prefects, and harry captain. i mean harry is still captain, it just is never said.

i loved the draco patrificus totalus scene, it is just as i imagined it.

and i didnt mind luna being the one who found him. haha i love her so much. i love the way she found him and saved him! :) she would! i love it! wrackspurts! your head is full of them!

FLITWICK!

i love him even if he is harsher than he was in the books, he is still very comical, and i love the spell he casts over the school grounds.

and i like how snape defends draco. because he would.

the nose fixing! so cool! :) and she did it right! god luna is such an amazing witch!

the great hall, as alwaysis just as i imagined.

and hermione being scared cuz harry is missing, i love that she carries books around! so hermione-ish! and while i am on that subject, i would like to point out the hair! it is so much more like hermione, everything about hermione is more like hermione in this one, it is very comforting :)

and the owl podium, when dumbledore walks up to it, and it like wakes up :) i just loved it, such a nice bit to add.

ilove that everyone is surprised that snape is the defence against the dark arts teacher and slughorn is the potions teacher, and it pans over the students and there are little ones, i love that they are including that in now cuz little kids have always gone there, and jo has always been really good at writing in kids of all ages, not just harrys age. so it is nice that they could do that.

the tom riddle speech is ominus, i loved it. especially the wispering. dumbledore has many sides to his persona in this movie, not just his anger side, i like it.

harry and ron! i love that they are up to schinanigans on their free period! haha they would! god it is perfect! :) and mcgonnagle is always been just as i imagined. i love the "and take weasley with you, he looks far too happy over there"

i love all of the potions scenes, especially when fight over the nice new book :) it is just like them to do that. and hermione and her smartness :) i love that she actually talked about amortensia in the book, it was exactly the same :)

the felix felicis :) haha hermione knows about that too :) and draco is intrigued by it, it is just so perfect! so they all make draft of living death! ahh just like the book! and i love how they dont really go in too deep into the half-blood prince, but they go in deep enough to get an idea. and the using the side of the knife to crush it instead of cutting it. and hermione is all flustered and bushy haired, that scene, with her hair like that, i really hope that was for the fans cuz i loved it, that is how i imagined hermione :) especially when she gets peeved at harry for being better :) i also love the bit wish seamus' cauldron exploding, like it always used to in the first few movies, it was very cute :) and perfect. the mussic is also very good, particularly the potions scene, that one reminded me of umbridges theme.

i cannot verbalise how much i love hermione in this scene! amazing.

ok now to dumbledores office. i love the diary thing :) very good thing to throw it :) especially now with the work with horcruxes.

and harry and dumby's chit chat :) and he asks about hermione :) so cute.

the memories...

they were good, i just never really liked those scenes in the book, they were good, and interesting, and the movies made them all perfect, they were creepy and awesome, i was just never really a fan of them in the first place. though i was always intrigued with his past, especially the whole thing where he isnt even full blooded. its so interesting. alot of other people love that stuff, but im more interested in the kids at hogwarts.

all in all the pensieve scened were cool, (i especially loved the new persieve) but i did groan a bit when they happenedcuz ive read them so much, and i already knew what was gonig to happen.

the cool little thing with the death eaters trying to break in was brilliant. a nice thing to add.

and the whole draco scene with the birds, it is so tragic, and spot on, i love it. too bad i hate draco.

THE QUIDDITCH SCENES! i love the wooden naked stands, very cool, and the petrified ron, and ginny taking action :) all very good. i especially liked the naked stands cuz it destinctifies practices from games. very nice. i also really loved the music, it was if not the exact same, it was very close to the music used for the dumbledores army scenes, it could to some people seem like a copout, but to me it just worked, cuz it sorta signifies the change. i dunno i thought it was nice, and it worked perfectly. lavender :) i love how she roots for ron, and they arent even dating. and CORMAC. far diffrent from what i imagined, but i loved it! the catching the bug thing to show he would be a good keeper! and his obsession with granger! parrallelled to lavenders obsession with ron, god i loved it! so awesome. and hermione helping ron by screwing with cormac :) awesome! and LUNA! WHY WAS SHE THERE!? HAHA I DONT EVEN CARE< IT WAS AWESOME~! so luna like. all the quidditch stuff was fun. and ron talking about it all night, just like inthe book, and cormacs obsession with hermione, to hermione's dismay :)

and them talking about the half-blood prince in front of everyone. that was 1 thing i didnt really like. and i dont remember if ginny was even involved with the half blood prince thing but im glad they had her in there cuz it really worked with the whole harry ginny thing that happens in this movie. v

the hogsmeade scenes were cool, i always love them, i do wish that they would have brought snapes mom in there when hermione talks about doing research on the hbp, but eh, they kept alot of stuff, cant blame them for missing 1 little thing.

i am glad that draco was in the 3 broom sticks, and the ginny dean thing, im glad they kept that in, cuz i honestly didnt think they would. i love that ron hates it too :) and hermione defends them. the slughorn thing was good too, especially when he calls ron... i dont even know wallerby or something. and harry just has to try to schmoose him.

HERMIONE DRUNK! that was so funny and cute, especially when she has the foam on her mouth! cuteness!

the katie bell silver and opel necklace scene was EXACTLY as it should have been :) so perfect, i love the new katie bell.

and they kept liane! awe awe awesome! im so surprised thay didnt just replace her with some already existing character. and the comment mcgonnagle makes about the trio always being involved in the trouble was cute :) god i love her! and the part where snape examines the necklace, i just liked it for some reason. probasbly cuz you dont see alot of snape doing magic, so it was neat to see that. especially cuz he looks at it for about 2 seconds and already knows it was very bad. and harry is quick to blame draco, and snape defending malfoy. snape is such a bully. and i am glad they kept the murauders map inthe movies.

i love the scene with harry and ron talknig about dean and ginny, and ginnys skin, and hermione's skin, and haha it was just so funny and so much like them.

i liked the slug club scene! and... those random twins. that was dumb, but they looked cool. i loved when they talked about hermione's parents being dentists. and ginny comes late, and harry stands up :) i like harry and ginny together. so cute :) and the random hour glass... pointless. the voldemort talk was.. i was uncomfortable haha i dunno why.

QUIDDITCH! loved it! wished they woulda kept the weasley is our king stuff. and i didnt understand the zoom in on rons breakfast. i love the uniforms, and lunas hat is the best thing ive ever layed eyes on, and lavlav is haha so perfect. and the felix slip :) so good! and perfect! and i didnt watch the quidditch scene in theatres.... it always has to be against slytherine, doesnt it! wish luna wouldve been comentating, but i think that wouldve taken away from the action, especially cuz it is so much more fast pased than the books. i love the common room parties, and how harry holds the confundus against hermione, and then shows that he didnt really do it, and the lavender kiss, haha and how hse like latches on to his face, so lavlav :) poor hermione :( i really love the birds, i love that they fit in cute little things from the books like that, it made the movies sososososo much better. and i love the hermione harry interaction on the stairs :) so perfect, and stupid lav lav. and i love how hermione makes the birds attack ron <3 perfect! lovelovelove.

i love harry and how he is in the middle, and ugh the stupid romilda/chosen one/library scene that we have all seen a billion times..


LUNALUNALUNALUNALUNALUNALUNA! i freaking love you! i love her dress and her sleep waling story! and the draco scene that i swear weve seen before... and then the apple is gone, and we go back to the party..

NEVILLE! wish he was in it more!

the whole slug club christmas party scene was beautiful, i love the snape giving mcclaggen detention part :) i love snape. and how he feels humiliated to give harry a message from dumby, and how he walks away when harry asks questions.

drco and snape interact, harry overhears itblah blah blah!

TRAIN TO THE BURROW!

loved the part where lavlav draws on the window! beautiful! and harry is just sittin there distancing himself from it. and then hermione sees it and walks away :( haha loved that too!

i love the talking and tonks (even if her hair is atrocious) she is perfect to play her, and lupin isnt, but i love them. and ginny sits down and arthur walks away, and she feeds harry the food! and it is awkward but ron lightens the mood by sitting between them! awesome!

loved arthurs muggle gadgets! so so so glad that was included! god they kept some A+ things! i love the vanishing cabinet talk. very interesting.

the camera angles from the corn? haha is that corn? idk but i love that the camera shakes. th edeath eaters hiding.

and ginny is about to kiss harry but ties his shoe!

and the death eater attack!!!! :( :( and harry goes after them! i was on edge the whole time :( bella was so crazily perfect! god i love her! ugh i loved the wand fights though! and the deatheaters like black smoke flying i love that. and i love bella. and then the house :( the burrow is started on fire :( i wanted to cry :( and molly's face :( :'( sad :( and then we go to won won and lavlav. excuse me but me and hermione need to go vomit.

ahh another pensieve scene. this one is good! i love the boy that plays teen tom! he reminds me of maggie eisenbise (sp) i dunno something about the face. and they changed the way slughorn messed with the memmory but i loved it, and how it is the same but diffrent!

LITTLE KIDS TAKING POTIONS! and i love how harry talks to slughorn the same as tom talks to him! god it is so perfect. and that doesnt work so he just blames sluggy for telling tom about ... that one type of dark arts.

ahhh and the love potion scene, a good bit of acting on ruperts part. i love how at first they are talking about 2 diffrent things. the only thing i didnt like was the note from romilda. she never sent a note with it. but eh who cares, and slughorn is eager to be the hero when there is no real danger, but as soon as ron is dying he freezes up! but harry comes to the rescue with the bezoar, even though i thought it took harry toolong to get him the bezoar. but then heis ok :)

the hospital scenes were good, especially the lavlav and hermione interaction, and how dumbledore weighs in on the topic, but not before ron powns lavlav by asking for hermione! :)and hermione stays, holding his hand :3 draco kills the lil white bird :( meany!but i lve the progression, with every time draco does it we learn more and more, very nicely done.

lavlavs death stares, very comical!i just dont understand why the gryffindores arent all at the same table... i like the interaction between harry and katie,and how harry takes action by following and fighting draco. i am glad that draco is sad about doing it,but i really love the scene after thebathroom fight where snape heals draco, very cool, wish myrtle was included in draco's crying part at the beginning of that scene. and the roomof requirement scene was a bit awkward, but i still liked it, i spentmost of that scene looking for the diadem, did anyone seeeit, idk but i loved the bird thing, just another progression into the end of the movie showing that the death eaters can break in.

i thought the kiss was awkward and cute, and i loved ginny's line after "that can stay up here too, if you like" and rons "did you and ginny do it then?" haha.

iliked the whole harry being drunk on felix thing like i like his acting, but i am still not sure how i feel about the idea, cuz i dont remember it happening like that, but it was funny none the less. "harry!" "sir!" *in whispers!* so cute. and i love the aragog scene, and dans pincers :) love it! farewell aragog. imsurprised they made that scene so long, and the poofs, cuz they are all drunk, and their discussions. i loved the fish talk, and it being lily's and it poofed the day lily died :( i loved that story. and then harry gives a speech and gets the memory.i imagined memories to look more like they did in past movies more than in this one but i loved the look of the start of a memory, and how it looks like when you drop food coloring in a glass of water, very cool. tom is mega creepy in the scene where he asks about horcruxes.i love how teen tom looks like he could actually be a grown up version of kid tom. love that. i dont understand what is so revealingabout the memory of asking abotu horcruxes, cuz dumbledore already knows about them.

love the snape and dumby scene. those are two great men.

stupid line about harry needing to shave, especially cuz dumby has a 2 foot beard...

buti love the cave scene! brilliance! the entrance isnt as i imagined it, doesnt look like a place to take children on holiday.very epic looking though. the boat was rendom. shouldnt it have been there from the beginning? haha maybe i am wrong! the boat looked cool though! and gambondid a good job of going crazy. its strange to thing that on his last day dumbledore drank a potion and went crazy, came back from it, killed off an army of inferi, returned to hogwarts to findintruders, and then is killed by his friend.

when i first saw the locket online it looked huge and stupid,but inthe movie it was smaller and very cool looking. wish it had a large S on it though.

the inferi hand scaresme every time, and i was prepaired for it, even the first time. i has been a ling while, but i dont remember harry being pulled under, haha maybei just need to reread that part.the fire dumby makes is so epicly awesome.

and then draco is in bed, he is such a creeper. but why are kids still up? isnt it late? i dunno but draco in that suit. he may have looked dapper, but he, and fellow death eaters, are mighty creepy. bellatrix is just so badass! and i love that draco has some redeeming factors, he cant kill albus, so he isnt all bad. i love jus dark mark tattoo. so cool! and i love that draco is only doing it so he can live. i dunno but that whole scene was so amazing! i loved it, i know that bella may have come off sexually to her nefew, but i only took it as... doesnt matter, dumby just died :( so sad :'( and then bellaconjuresthe dark mark and ruins the castle and hagrids hut! what the hell! i loved the harry snape interaction where snape reveals himself to be the half-blood prince, very cool. i like it better in the books cuz in the books, due to hermione's research, we learn that half-blood prince has a double meaning.

i love the part where harry goes to dumbledores dead body, and ginny comforts him! so sweet! and then everyone illuminates their wands, it was very powerfull, i was tingling. beautiful. truly beautiful.

i didnt miss the funeral, cuz it was engraved in my mind very distincly and if they would have ruined it, it wouldve been worse than if they didnt put it in. i liked the phoenixscene, really represented the lament, so it wasnt really necessary to put that in, and the portrait of dumby in his office. it was so perfect.

RAB~regulus arcturus black :) not really on the bad side! i love how hermione gives harry rons blessing for harry and ginny. and then they talk about not coming back! ahh it got me so excited for the next 2 movies! :) :) :)

and the phoenix :)

i love fawkes.

i love the trio.

i love harry potter!
