Feeling lazy,

so in short I agree with Pubrick.

It felt like alot was cut out, mainly with Hermoine.

the SPEW subplot

what is that?

SPEW was a house-elf rights campaign that Hermione launched in the book. She was so disgusted with Crouch's treatment of his house-elf that she basically becomes an abolitionist for elves, trying to get a petition going to lobby Hogwarts to free all the elves who cook and clean, etc. (better than it sounds).  The upside to cutting it out was that all the house-elves would bring on the Jar-Jar factor that Dobby brought to the second movie, only 100-fold, but everything that was the Hermione we know and love was concentrated into this subplot and when they took it out of the movie, they made her just another chick at Hogwarts.

worked
-when hermoine screams at ron at the end of the ball (but where the hell did that come from?? she was acting as if he'd been bothering her the whole nite but all we saw was him making a couple of smart ass comments early on.)

My favorite part of the film. The whole ball sequence brought me right back to fifteen, but that moment the most. Those sudden bursts of emotion...its out-of-the-blue-ness was perfect.

JUST AWFUL AWFUL COVERART.  and i think the 2 Disc silver may even be worse.  it looks like Harry has been colorized by Ted Turner from black and white.  it makes me want to not watch the film.  why couldnt they have kept the packaging consistent with the first two films?
