    Happy with the Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows P.2?

    Is there anything you wished they would've done to make it better, or anything they should've included?
    -I wish they would've given Fred's... part(I say part to avoid spoilers, true fans, I'm sure you know what I'm talking about) in the book way more justice in the movie! And Percy coming back to the family!

    I cried in both the book and the movie, so I say its a job well done. Besides the part with Ron and Hermione getting the baskilisk fang at the end being totally random if you know what I'm talking about. In the book it was a bit more subtle and they had a reason, but I mean really. Totally random.

      Yeah, I agree with the randomness, but nonetheless they were probably caught up in the moment or something...? Anyways at least it was cute. :)

      I feel like something like that should have been an "awwww" moment, but instead, because of how random it was, me and my friends started cracking up laughing. :)

    I loved the movie, but there's no denying that the book was way better because there's so much more detail. I really do wish they had done the bit with percy, and I'm still mad about the ending and what harry did with the elder wand compared to in the book! also, in the part 1 movie, they should have done the part with dudley and harry. still an awesome movie tho.

      The Percy(AHH FRED) and Dudley part are deleted scenes in the Blue Rays! So yay about that. And yeah, I agree with the Elder Wand, but I guess that's how David thought it should be. :)

      wait I forget what did Harry do with the elder wand in the book?

      He went to Dumbledore's office and fixed his wand with it, then I think he put the Elder Wand back in Dumbledore's grave. In the movie he might've fixed his wand but we just didn't see it, and he could've put the wand back in Dumbledore's grave even if was broken. You never know.

    I agree with Bethany. The book was better than the movie due to detail. I appreciate how they stuck to Snape and his relationship with Lily, but there should have been more to do with the elder wand!!

    I loved them both. I cried for both of them as well. I do think that they could have added more of the little details to the movie, but I also realize how hard it is to do stuff like that, so I'm quite fine with how it really turned out. Overall, I think that it was a great ending to the whole series.

    OH. Except, I feel like they made Harry, Ron, & Hermione look extremely...uhm...old in the very last scene. I just really hated how they portrayed them for that part. Yes, they did get older, but did they really have to make them look like that? Just a little thought.

      Yeah, I agree with everything you said, except I'm sorta glad the way they did it for the end, because they WERE going to use other actors! That would've been terrible! So I'm just thankful they decided just to do makeup. Except Hermione didn't look any older for some reason.. Haha.

      Yeah, all they did for Hermione was put her hair in a bun and give her earrings, haha. Ron and Harry just got stubble, and Ginny just looked weird with her hair short. :)

    Wish Fred and Percy had had their respective parts, and they needed to give Lily green eyes. THEY ARE FREAKING BROWN. ]:(

    I'm a Snape maniac over ere, just so ya know.

    And I wish Snape hadn't said "You have your mother's eyes." when he SPOILERS died. When he looked into Harry's eyes, he saw Lily. -_-
