Just finished watching Harry Potter Part 2.

I was disappointed with the ending of the 7th book and so decided not to watch the last movie (both parts).

The epilogue's not as bad as the book's was, though to be honest I didn't really mind the book's to begin with.

 Kinda editing something I wrote on Tumblr

• Fred's death not being shown was kinda odd, since I know a lot of fans were really looking forward to that.
  
• Neville was awesome. Him being paired with Luna was unexpected, since it was always hinted at but Rowling has specifically denied that they end up together.
  
• Liked the way they changed how Molly kills Bellatrix, as well as how Harry never says "expelliarmus" while fighting Voldemort, which I know some people complained about.
  
• McGonagal telling the Slytherins to go to the dungeon and never mentioning evacuating the younger students was strange.
  
• No Grey Lady and Bloody Baron was expected; kinda wish they actually explained the story about Ariana.
  
• How did Harry learn that Remus and Tonks had a son? She was about to announce it in 7.1, but never actually did, and I don't think they ever said it onscreen? Don't think they said how Harry got the mirror either.
  
• The end of Snape's memories (a sequence I really liked) was kinda narmy. Especially baby Harry's face.
  
• Was it just me or did them flying out of the Room of Requirement look really bad? I mean, obvious green screen bad. Same for Neville waking up, but I think that was almost intentional?
  
• The aging up of the characters for the epilogue was... not so great. Harry and Ginny looked really different while Hermione didn't seem to have much aged at all.
  

Anyway, saw it at midnight (2D), etc. Tons of fangirls who sang AVPM and Potter Puppet Pals and screamed at every freaking little thing. I love the series too, but people really need to be aware that they're not the only ones in the theater.
