I went into the movie knowing it wouldn't have everything the books have, as there just isn't enough time in a 2 hour movie. But i was shocked at what they choose to leave out. Regardless...I am going AGAIN tonight to see it. This time with my fiance', best friend and her husband. Last night me and my best friend saw it alone. Its worth a double look. I want to see it with out being shocked from the differences. It was a GREAT movie, but don't go in expecting it to be EXACTLY like the books, even when it comes to the sequence of events.
