For me, the Order of the Phoenix just took out the worst movie from Half-Blood Prince. I'm disappointed that Harry's lessons with Dumbledore should have been indepth and done better (The Gaunts omission from the movie was a BIG disappointment) and the end battle felt rushed.

Order of the Phoenix.. Apart from the omissions made, there were parts of the movie that I don't think were done as well as I think they could have - for example the Occlumency lessons and Snape's Worst Memory was weird. For me, OOTP left a lot out and just felt like it was rushing all the way through without properly explaining things and while I had read the books, it's still nice to have it all done at a good pace

- I think anyone with an IQ higher than a bucket of rocks could reasonably infer from Umbridge's demeanor in the courtroom that she had something to do with sending the dementors.

- The viewer knows that Tonks is magic so, imo, there's no need for a technical explanation.

- Peeves hasn't been in the movies up to this point, so why put him in now?

- Mrs. Black's portrait was in the movie. It's in the scene where, as Harry is walking up the stairs, Kreacher stands on a small wooden crate and begins polishing the frame and you can hear her talk.

While i stick to my statement that HBP is the worst i have to agree OOTP is the second worst film of the series and here are a few reasons why i think so..

No quidditch
no explaination of who sent the dementers to harry
no Dobby
filch watching DA
Too short battle at ministry
No tonks changing explaination
the RUBBISH snapes worst memory (and lily defending snape and her and james arguing was both filmed and left out of the "offical" deleted scenes because photos of it exsist.
No portable swamps or fireworks all over the school
No Peeves causing menace to either hogwarts or umbridge and peeves is something i know alot of fans want to see at some point
The whole dumbledore explains harrys destiny chapter was mutilated (which was how a friend of mine described the film adaptation of the book to be honest)
No ron and hermione prefects mention
no charactor becoming a prefect
no mcgonagall attack which was also filmed and left to rot pff the dvd
anything qith harry and cho in a relationship and the memory of cedric
Ginny and her growing love for harry
grimmauld place cleaning and locket finding
No percy disowning family scenes
kreachers betrayal of sirius
no mrs black portrait

Heck no! Have you lot seen Order of the Phoenix lately? That is by far the worst. *shudders*

With HBP, I was mostly disappointed with the lack of Dumbledore's funeral and the fight at the end! There was supposed to be this huge fight that would rival the one at the end of DH! *sighs* [supergrin]

I hate the HBP! Slughorn was completly wrong!! I love the actor but slughorn was short and fat, not tall and gangly. The whole malfoy kills dumbledore subplot was overacted and rubbish. Not even rupert grint in a vest could save this movie!!!

I wouldn't say it's the worst at all. Half Blood Prince was my favourite book of the series and okay, they did put some things in the movie that annoyed me (the begining with Harry at the station diner thing, *vomites*) but I still liked it.

I think the worst is Prisoner of Azkaban, it's just my personal least favourite followed by Order of the Pheonix.

In my opinion sixth part of the Harry Potter series is the worst.
I don't like relationships between Ron and Hermiona. There is too much of imagine love in this film, and too little true, magic, terror...
What do you think about it? Have you the same opinion or disagree with me?
