Also, Sirius doesn't call Harry James in the book. And he gets with a red jet of light rather than the killing curse, which is why Harry thinks he'll come back. I wonder if he would have died if he hadn't fallen through the veil.

Dumbledore and Voldemort's duel is quite epic though.

I wonder why they didn't have the other kids get injured as badly as they do in the book. I mean, Hermione gets hit with a nasty curse and Ron gets a concussion and then plays with those brains.

This is the worst scene. I hate that Rowling continuously kills all the people Harry is close to. Thank goodness both Ron and Hermione make it all the way through. This is how I knew she wasn't a good person. This and when she kills only 1 of the twins.

But the way she predicted how easily people will fall for news articles, especially when they don't want to believe something. Hindsight!

Poor Luna. She's had a real lonely 4 years before this.

If I ever get a good idea, I'll figure out to make the Hogwarts Express into a story!
This was fun, even if it was just the 2-3 of us!

H is over here asking if there are other magical trains. Lol. The Polar Express is technically a magical train. I have started collecting chapter books about trains. The Midnight Train by the author who wrote the Septimus Heap series. (Very similar to HP but I liked it) We also have The Silver Arrow but I don't think it's magic. Thomas started here as part of Shining Time Station, and that was kind of magical.

He's over here talking about how ridiculous it is to maintain a magical rail system for the little that they use the Hogwarts Express.
