First a random thing about the movie. What was the point of changing the look of Flitwick? If it had been changed after the first two that would be more understandable since it’s a different director (though still stupid), but he wasn’t a normal midget on PoA was he? Or was he just not on that at all and I thought he was?
Next, I noticed something odd at the end of the movie. On the grave at the end you had three names. One was Thomas and the other Tom (don’t remember the other). They were supposed to have found "all three Riddles dead" like it said in the book, so going by that, I’d think the grave would be for the three of them. But the dates? IIRC they all had the same death dates which was in 1940-something (fitting the date he killed them 50 years before) and the one that said Tom Riddle was born around 1900. That would fit for Voldemort’s father I guess (other than the book said they were elderly), but the rest of it doesn’t make sense then. I just found it odd, even if it is the movie. When he opened the chamber of secrets the first time that was around 50 years before as well, right?
Anyway, I just finished the Order of the Phoenix and will start on the next book soon. May go ahead and watch the movie as well.
