1. Yes, all the British Actors are superb indeed! She even did a fair impression of Hermione acting as her.

2. Wholeheartedly disagree. I thought it did justice to the book and showed some excellent acting chops on the part of Allen Rickman. Neither my daughter or I could watch those scenes without strong emotional reactions.

3. Yes.

4. She was excellent as always. I am so glad she is over 18 now so I don't feel so creepy about myself admiring her. I really liked how her relationship with Ron grew and how he grew and she had to adjust to it.

5. Yes

6. Couldn't disagree more. Sure adding time would have been nice. But it was a highlight of the movie, if not entire series.

7. Yep

8. Yes

9. One problem though, you can really see these fine actors aging.

We'll have to agree to disagree about global warming until the next global cooling scare comes along

Follow Ups:

I certainly agree with Rickman's acting quality, I actually wanted more of him. - Enophile 17:15:49 07/26/11 (2)
I wished the film would have shown more about how Snape had really plotted and suffered to undermine Voldemort.

I thought showing it via the bowl was fine, but it didn't feel like enough for me.

Wasn't it great reading/seeing these with your kids?

All in all, I give the series highest marks for the pleasure it brought us.

  I have read all the Twilight books and seen the movies with her. I also am reading "The Hunger Games" with her too now.

    My sons, lucky for me (?), they did not hit Twilight.
    
    This week we are all reading "A Wrinkle In Time" together.
    
    I kind of enjoy the chatting about what we read!
    
    The Hunger Games was much more morose than I expected for a young reader book series.
