Pretzels!!

Day Three: Did any of the film adaptions make you angry because they ignored important parts of the book?

I try to repress what I remember from the movies :P But because I'm such a marauder-era fangirl, the way those things are represented bother me the most. Like how they dealt with Snape's Worst Memory - way too short, and without Lily intervening, which was sort of the whole point of the scene.
And I haven't seen HBP yet, but apparently Harry isn't frozen at the end and just stands there. Which makes zero sense...


I haven't talked about the new Leverage series yet, but this last episode!
Parker and Hardison, omg so cute! The pretzel conversation was ADORABLE. "They're right here, when you want them" asljkls adorableness! :D

And the dancing bit in The Homecoming Job was really sweet as well. :D I so totally ship them in a passive way. ;)

In general, somehow the plots seem even more forgettable than before. And it needs moar Sterling!

Ooh I know what you mean! The third movie was so fail in that regard, because the third book brought us marauder-era and the third film... Didn't. They didn't explain it at all! I suppose that it is difficult to bring exposition into film, but in the book it was all explained in dialogue.. and well, they could have just given us a little! But no, the whole map thing wasn't even explained! *pouts*

I was in PHYSICAL PAIN watching that movie and I do not remember any of it. Except for David Thewlis, unfortunately D:
Yeah, they could have easily said "hey remember that strange map? yeah, we made it. These are our nicknames. We were awesome back then". I would not have taken very long.

I KNOW! Just two sentences, barely! It would have been like, 3 minutes on camera or something. They could have just slipped it in there. Grrr!
