I KNOOOOOOOW, it's going to be awesome. Also I think the epilogue is maybe the only thing I've seen set pictures of, and it was RIDICULOUS. But it will probably be entertaining all the same.
That was a super weird transition, especially since I really loved 4 the book and loved 5 the book less, so getting them swapped like that in movies was weeeeeeeeird. But yeah you kind of knew it was going to be well-directed from that opening scene. YATES IS REALLY GOOD AT THOSE. But yes, the transitions were amazing and so was the Hogwarts atmosphere it created? At the same time I'm not sure I would have wanted Cuaron to do all the films. I don't know what the difference is there.
You know it's funny though: I saw this with my brother and he was yammering on about how he wanted it to be long because he liked long movies and apparently this was longer than most of them? Which is so weird and interesting, because it's still only half a book. AND YET YOU COULD STILL TOTALLY MAKE THE OTHER HALF LAST FOUR HOURS.
