The Order of the Pheonix got a bit longwinded in the middle for me and I didn't like the film very much at all, missed too many important bits out of the book. That's the problem I guess with them making the films mainly for kids, they have to cut them down to a reasonable length for them to sit through lol. That's why I'm SO glad they've split the last book into two films, plus it means we've got another 6 months after November before it's all over for good

Yep, think she intended for the audience to grow with the books, as to why there was some major gaps inbetween some, so when reading, they could appriciate the darker turn they had taken. I'm sort of sensing this with the films, at least they weren't PG, I don't think, the last few. Hopefully this last two part one will live up to the book.
