Obviously, they couldn't do EVERYTHING in the book... that would be an eight hour long movie, and even I wouldn't want to sit in a theatre that long! Talk about serious Theatre-Butt! *LOL*
But, I must agree. Things like hair and eye colour could have totally been done properly. Just look at Snape's hair! That looked perfect. Harry's eyes definitely need to be green, because wasn't there mention somewhere about his green eyes being very important?
Oh, and then Dumbledore never told Harry that HE had given him the Invisibility Cloak! That was dumb. It would take less than 10 seconds to tell him.
I was most disappointed that they chopped the Potions Class Scene in half. That whole segment kicked butt! And not just because I am a Snape-shipper, but because it was important.
I was also disappointed that they didn't even do the scene where Hermione uses her logic to solve the puzzle and tell Harry which potion to drink. But that is about all.
Other than that, I still think the movie kicks butt and you have to admit that they did well with what they had.
