One and five are my favorites. Number one has a real sense of magic about it, and it did cut out a fair amount (the non-duel at night, Peeves etc.). Five just had a sense of magic that I felt was missing from three and four.

Also, 7.1 was okay. Not fantastic or bad by any means, just kind of there. Although the one major thing they cut was VERY minor, being the whole "Voldemort-is-a-trigger-word" thing which explains why Harry uses you know who in this movie instead.

I see. Anyway, for whatever reason, I don't seem to have the attention span for lTK tonight. However, I was pleasantly surprised that i didn't see any pop-up ads. Was nice.

EDIT: I watched OHMSS on Syfy tonight, and this shot looks more like it did in the SE on the channel. I wish I could show it, but I don't have a capture card. Does this mean they've fixed the colors for the eventual blu release, or what? Either way, it looked a lot more like what I remember in the theater than the UE atrocity there.

Currently watching LTK on Syfy... anyone else think the rear levels are ridiculously high? I had to readjust my set just to hear any dialogue, by boosting the front channels far higher than they should go - and, mind you, my surround system isn't even set up properly! For aesthetic reasons we leave them in front with the others, our room just wouldn't work with them in the back.
