And all the blue screens that'll be needed for the seven different Harry's? Then the aerial battle with a flying Voldemort, motorcycle, brooms, and thestrals? Yeah. Not entirely easy. The Gringotts part probably won't be easy; you have all goblins and the DRAGON to do and replicating coins and cups. And of course OOTP made it worse for the Room of Requirement scenes because if Umbridge can break in, well, then why can't the Carrows? I guess it's because Parvati or Lavendar had that line about how Neville could work the room? Oh, and I can't wait for the Snape death scene! Alan Rickman will rock that. I'm not a shipper of anyone, but Emma and Rupert better make that kiss damn good. I am honestly more excited for this movie to come out than HBP.

It'll be another cheap imitation of the book with a million things cut out. I can already see them cutting out the ministry, the fight in the beginning with the death eaters attacking, them staying at Fleur and Bills... I could go on. It's sad really---I'm just seeing the cuts they're going to make.

The goat in the Hog's Head..That was cute! And I can totally see them leaving out a lot of the "mini-battles" that the Trio gets into with various DE's and LV. I feel like what they are going to show is just Harry destroying the Horcruxes, and acquiring the Deathly hallows, and then the final, epic battle. The movie for this book is going to be pretty bad..there is just too much action for them to replicate.

That's going to be tough to get around filming, using other actors and having the characters invisible to their surroundings but still so the audience can see them. That was the biggest thing I noticed in terms of the movies. That Ron/Hermione kiss better be damn good, in the middle of the battle and all. I always thought that while Harry was the main character of the series (obviously), Ron/Hermione is the main romance. I have a feeling most of the "camping trip" of Harry/Ron/Hermione is going to be cut out, except for Ron's departure and re-appearance (storyline wise, I guess they could cut it, but I think it's one of the best written sequences of the book, so I think they'll leave it). I also think Bill/Fleur's house and wedding may be cut out. They'll figure out ways to get around that. Maybe the character of Xeno Lovegood too, have the trio figure out the hallows in a quicker way than introducing a new character.

I immediately thought of the movies when Nagini possessed the woman and then slid out of her neck. THHHHAT would be amazing with special effects. I wonder if it'll be rated R or how they're going to do this. I mean, it was death, death, death, death!

I'm worried about how much will be cut because everything was so important! I agree with you all about the camping being really short, which is unfortunate. I would have loved all those scenes with just the trio. They have great chemistry onscreen, I noticed it a lot in OoTP. This movie is going to be amazing. Eeek. Amen about the kiss. They better kiss the hell out of each other!

After that I tried not to think about the movies because every time I did it took me away from the book and how they were going to butchered that part in the movie. I will still probably love all the movies though.

I guess it's because Parvati or Lavendar had that line about how Neville could work the room? That part cuaght my eye. If JKR didn't have a pow-wow with the filmmakers about this, I find it VERY coincidental that they made Neville the one who found the Room of Requirement in the OotP movie, because it will work very nicely that he's the one who can make it keep others out.

I think they'll keep it pg-13, but I could be wrong.

Also, if you can have movies like Lord of the Rings and King Kong have all the violence they did, if you can have Star Wars Episode III with a man getting (essentially) burned alive and still have a PG-13 rating, then Harry Potter will remain PG-13 through to the end. However, as I said, that's just my opinion.
