1. Okay, if the dementors suck the souls out of people, WHY WERE THEY STILL INVITED TO STAY AROUND HOGWARTS?
2. It was still dumb that Pettigrew was Ron's rat all along.
3. Yes, I was paying attention (though it was hard to). If it was his Patronus, why did he say he saw his FATHER? Even so, I thought the Patronus he used earlier in the film to defeat the dementor was the memory of his parents talking to him.

Next round:
1. It just annoyed me because it was so random at that point to completely switch his character around.
2. I've never read the books.
3. It would be nice for that one match to be a bit longer.


First Round:
1. They weren't invited. They were sent there by the Ministry of Magic to hunt down Black. Dumbledore even said he had no control over their presence.
2. I loved it. Plus, what better way to hide and still keep close to the pulse of all that is happening in the magic world?
3. Harry wouldn't think it was actually himself across the lake. So when he saw someone that he briefly thought looked like himself, he assumed the family resemblance was because it was his father. Just as a note, there are four names that are on that Marauder's Map. They are Padfoot, Wormtail, Moony, and Prongs. They represent the four friends and refer to their alter identities once they transform to their animal selves... Wormtail is Pettigrew b/c he is a rat with the worm-looking tail; Padfoot is Sirius Black because he becomes a dog with the pad feet that dogs have; Moony is Professor Lupin because he becomes a wolf under the moonlight (as a side note, Lupin is similar in nature to the species name for a wolf which is "lupus"); and Prongs is Harry's father because his patronus, like Harry's, is a buck with the pronged antlers.

Second Round:
1 and 2 are just notes so I'll ignore.
3. I would have liked to have seen more Quidditch too because Cuaron is the only director that made the Quidditch match look realistic.
