2. I don't think Sirius is gone forever (though I think JKR may have said he is), but Harry doesn't have the mirror. If I'm not mistaken, didn't he smash it when it didn't work?

3. This is true, but I think he will face Voldy on his own. It's in the prophecy that one must kill the other (according to Dumbledore). Says nothing about friends. Though it'd be a good thought that the 3 would band together against Voldemort, it'd be a better cinematic move to have Harry do it alone.
1.I agree, James in Snape (or whatever) is waaaaay out there.

2. I forgot that he smashed the mirror. It's definately time to reread the books. I think JKR forgot that Sirirus gave it to Harry and had to write the mirror back out of the book. It is however unclear what exactly the veil is or does so there is some vague hope (except for the fact that Harry is losing adult aid, not getting more).

3.I'm still torn. While I agree, it's a classic hero move that Harry will have to face Voldemort alone, I'm just not sure we can count out the DA as well as Hermione and Ron. But I don't think the prophecy says that Harry must kill Voldemort. Just that neither can live while the other survives.

What about Neville. I think he's going to play a greater role. We know he's found his skills in herbology, but I can't help but think that he'll make an even better showing of himself than he did in the DA. It's almost required since his parents suffered so horribly.
