So is DH: Part 1 better than HBP?
Yes, it's brilliant. As a person who 'grow up' reading Harry Potter i've always left the cinema feeling slightly disappointed (now I view the books/films as different for various cinematic reasons) but David Yates did a fantastic job with DH and the 'dragging' parts which got negative feedback (largely from the press!) was due to the trio being on the run for the best part of 6 months in the book, so of course it would have to 'drag' a little but I thought it was very well done with character development in abundance, something we've hardly seen in the previous 6. The Locket sequence and The Tale of the Three Brothers are the best scenes i've ever seen in a Potter movie.

Anyway, the SE DVD version are VERY tempting, they look great. I really, really hope they bring the same to the Blu version

Can't wait for Part 2!
