    Cool,
    There seems to be a fair bit left out of the films,

    off the top of my head the mirror doorway is not mentioned at all.

    Yeah, well the books are really long so they have to cut loads out of the films.

    The films aren't a patch on the books, IMO. They never could be.

    No film ever is. Dune(David Lynchs) was probably the best attempt, even with so much out and the altered ending.

    Which one was that?

    Disappointing... I was hoping Harry would swear like a docker in the adult versions.

    Oh, he does, and has lots of promiscuous sex with the girls in Gryiffindor (and some in Ravenclaw), but that's the only difference.
