re: Harry Potter Question: Deathly Hallows

It kills me to think just how much will be cut from the final movie that was an important part of the book. They completely left out a TON of important tidbits regarding Snape and Umbridge in OotP, like how Delores admits to planning the attack on Harry at the beginning of movie with the dementors and how Snape gave Umbridge "fake" legimacy potion so Harry couldn't give her info on Sirius' whereabouts (that starts gives us clues that Snape isn't the villian we think he was the whole time). I also hate that in OofP they left out the part about Kreacher lying about Sirius' whereabouts when Harry used the floo network to check if Sirius had gone to the ministry, then dumbledore explaining EVERYTHING to Harry at the end of the book. We missed so much backstory!

Finally, in HBP, we missed the whole meaning of Half Blood Pince because they never explain WHY Snape is a "half blood prince". These are details that will explain harry's actions regarding Snape (hopefully if it follows the book) at the end of the battle of hogwarts.

We'll see if they do the final movie justice, but so far, the movies have me mildly disappointed with the amount of critical things left out and ridiculous things added in as filler.
