Just got back from the movie (and yes, I wore my Hogwarts school blazer!), and it was pretty much everything I wanted. The only thing I really felt was missing was
McGonnigal's big speech before the battle of Hogwarts.
Oh, and I tried to keep my eyes open during the
spider attack. Ha, no. First shot of them scuttling up had me recoiling in my seat muttering "No fucking way".
I wanna go see it again.
I'm glad you didn't lose it over the specified scene. Did you see the HP movie that featured that character? The 2nd movie, I believe. That is probably more than you'd want to watch.

Oh, I watched the movie (Chamber of Secrets). I've just never seen those scenes. Someone warned me beforehand as to where I'd need to shut my eyes. Pete watched it, and let me know when I could open my eyes again. When we got the DVD, Pete watched it first, and then
very specifically
told me at what point I needed to hit the skip button
twice.
Because if I only hit skip once, I would be in the middle of the big spider-y discussion. No. No thank you.
Oh, they did? Awesome! I'm getting the dvd from Netflix, I hope that has it on it.
I watched the DVD from Netflix a few weeks ago and there were no extras on it.
Oh, right. ::thwaps self::

The Dudley scene doesn't have all the effects on, but it's a very nice scene nonetheless. I wish they'd found the way to keep that in, as well as the Petunia scene earlier, although I understood they had to go for pacing reasons.
