Luna was awesome! I wish there'd been more of her - the girl who plays her is just brilliant. I definitely agree with you about the Half-Blood Prince revelation. It was really down-played - what, two seconds of dramatic revelation, with nothing else offered? Bleh.
My favourite moment was probably Luna with the lion head-dress. That was too wonderfully crazy for words.
I was a little disappointed by it, actually. All the little in-jokes, etc, that the other directors had managed to preserve seemed to fall flat, and just get annoying - I didn't find the Hermione/Ron sexual-tension thing funny anymore.
I thought the revelation of Snape as the HBP wasn't dramatic enough, and Dumbledore's death was just too quick.
I thought it was quite strong, up until Dumbledore and Harry went after the horcrux, but it's the same for the book, really. Rupert Grint continues to be the best thing in the movies - he steals every scene. Did you like it? (Have you seen it?)
I had very high expectations for Howl (especially since it's one of my favourite books) and I did like SOME things about it but they made Howl too nice.
I should! If only I'd thought of it earlier.

You should get the bacon bandaids from the Dali exhibition in the city *nods*

Luna is just that awesome.

What annoyed me was that they built it up, there was all that "Who's the HBP?" stuff, and then he's just like "It's me. Now go away."
And that costume was pretty awesome. Only Luna...

Also, I hated that Draco is now just so pathetic.
Two good things, though: the kiss, and Luna.

Hehe! There are more than you can count. :D
There's so much more jerkness! Go read it. Enjoy Howl with added jerk. ...That sounds wrong.

Yes - those desk lamps are very distracting. You clearly have good taste in lamps, too. :D
