I know Sirius was in the fireplace. I just meant that I missed him more--I mean, missed having him in it more. But the parts that were chopped for length, mostly revolving around Mr. Crouch and Karkaroff, were heavy on Sirius stuffs. But no mention of Snuffles? Or revelation to Snape about the animagus?
But yeah, what was left out here was mostly okay, I just wish they'd found a way not to include the World Cup at all as it was mostly useless. The only things that were necessary to have from the world cup were the portkeys and the Death Eaters. Having the mystery man who lit the dark mark is less interesting than the mystery in the book surrounding its conjuration because the movie let Harry actually see that someone did conjure it, which takes away some of his confoundment.
Meh, I think because I liked POA better as a book, I might be more inclined to forgive this movie for what it cut versus what was cut for the POA movie. Jury's still out.
