I saw Ootp last night, having just finished the book yesterday morning. Note to self: Make sure to finish the half-blood prince WELL before the next movie. Why? Well I was quite disappointed by how much they DID leave out, and by what they changed in the movie for no particular reason.
I realize that the HP Books are packed with content and it would probably take 4-5 hours to do a decent job of really converting the book to the screen. As a result you have to expect some level of cuts. For example in the book harry gets four letters, not just one. I'm trying hard not to give any spoilers, which makes it hard to give any particular examples.
I CAN say that it was still a fun movie to watch, but having JUST read the book over the last week I was very disappointed which what and how much they left. But I'd certainly be interested in seeing the IMAX 3D and sitting not in the second-row.
