I'm not talking to you, CP2000, but I needed to quote that to bring up a oiint---why do people keep repeating this, like we missed it? We know that happened, we just didn't like it. It still seems like a pointless change to the story, as it creates more plot problems than it fixes. Their relationship could have ended a number of ways (including with the blame off Marietta) without the movie running too long--if we could come up with time-saving options that stayed true to the book, the director should have been able to do so as well!

I'll probably get flamed for this, but...
Someone correct me if I'm wrong, but I'm pretty sure JK HAS to APPROVE each script. So therefore, if I'm correct let's just stop the complaining. Yes, it sucked but the reality is that they had to considerabley edit OotP. It was the longest book. And if JK approved it and was happy with it... well that goes a long way in my book.
