Oh and! In movie one, they changed "Greek" to "Irish" when Hagrid's telling Harry how he got Fluffy. Why the fuck did they make that change? The fuck was the POINT of that change? Fluffy's a cerberus!
Movie 2: Hermione knows what Mudblood means and cries when Draco (DRACO!) calls her one. If it's not used in civilized conversation, why would she know it? All her knowledge comes from READING.
Movie 3: Yeah, they took lots of liberties, but thing is, mostly they worked. As an ADAPTATION, this is easily my favorite.
Movie 4: Ughhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh they turned Ron into a douchebag and Hermione into a perpetual damsel in distress and Beauxbatons and Durmstrang were both supposed to be co-ed, and only Fleur was supposed to be hella hot because she was a VEELA, and they turned Hogwarts into some kind of hotbed of orgies, I thought.
Movie 6: Took away Ron's impetus for getting with Lavender. Stripped Ginny of all personality. And WTF Steve Kloves, Harry's TERRIBLE with crying girls, whether they're his crush or sister-surrogate.
