Read: An excuse to use my other Harry Potter icon

One thing I forgot to mention, and I've been thinking about all day....


As much as I was upset about the cutting of the final EPIC BATTLE on the rooftops of Hogwarts, I did like the addition of the Weasley's Burrow burning. This was added in, and wasn't in the books, right?

Anyway, I thought it was an easy way for them to establish that Harry isn't totally virtuous (he wants to fucking kill Bellatrix) and that Ginny totally loves Harry (see: running through fire and into the midst of Death Eaters).

Just the shots of those two running through the tall grass were pretty frickin' gorgeous.

THERE'D BETTER BE BIGASS FIGHTS IN BOTH OF THE DEATHLY HALLOWS MOVIES. THAT IS ALL.

I actually thought that the Burrow-burning was an unnecessary addition. Then again, I don't (and didn't, even prior to this movie) think that Harry is totally virtuous, and I think Ginny's feelings for Harry were obvious enough as it was. Running through the ring of flames was kind of overkill. (And on that subject, I would so much rather have seen the post-Quidditch-game kiss in the common room rather than the Burrow going up in flames.)
