I too was really excited to see this scene brought to life. I think they did a great job with it. This is one of the scenes I was really looking forward to. As the scene approached in the movie, I started getting really twitchy. My friend who was with me asked me "what's wrong?" "Ooooh you'll see. Just you wait." My friend is not a Harry Potter reader. Thank god, they didn't disappoint me.

All in all, I was pleased with the movie as I long ago resigned myself to the fact that they'll never be able to fit an entire book in one movie. (Though I am encouraged because I've heard rumors they're doing Deathly Hallows as two movies. That *MIGHT* allow them to fit everything in.)

It might have been the movie or maybe just a great night at the drive-in (I saw 4 shooting stars during the movie), but I thoroughly enjoyed this episode of Harry Potter and may even go back to see it again.
