I watched it!!! though spoilers abound so I'll make it highlightable below, but because I have these irritating blue curly things I have to bump the review down so that people who haven't watched it don't spoil themselves by accident. In the meantime, I'll entertain you with some moderately emo stuff.

cac is in two weeks! *panics* we have made... moderate, though very slow, progress. We've done the content to put on the poster, but not the poster itself. The poster is the most most important thing because if we don't have anything to show for our efforts, they won't have anything to mark. I mean if you look at the fa people, they're (kind of) worried and they're 5 weeks away from the real thing, but obviously it's different skills they're working on and it's a different kind of panic but still I think I should have greater progress. haha I'm being obnoxious, not mentioning yingling and khaingzin but they're yeah working hard as well. (this sounds like an afterthought) and we've heard a little from other schools too.

Review!! *Spoiler Alert* yeah I watched it :DD haha repetition for emphasis. I likedliked what David Yates (the director) did with the opening scene; it was so big picture and different from other opening scenes and artsy (a little) and epic;- remember harry playing with his wand under the covers? (okay that sounds wrong) But yeah it was macro to micro when previously it was micro to macro.
The dementor thing was good(: and harry's surprise that mrs figg was a squib was played out fairly well. BUT I was kind of miffed they didn't put dumbledore's howler to petunia in it, though it couldn't have taken more than 3 mins [?] or so to develop that plotline and the connection, because it is so vital that the movie-goer realises that petunia isn't as ignorant or one-sided as she seems. Rawr. I mean if they really didn't have time, they could take away the small "harry being emo" part on the hogwarts express which is so useless. As in we already know harry is angsty and mad and all, you don't have to emphasise it so much; and harry isn't the only one being frustrated either- look at ron and hermione. *end of spoiler*
It's getting late, will probably post more later. (I usually don't keep this promise)
