One thing though is I started reading the books in 2004, right after OotP came out in paperback. So movies, 1-3 were already out, so to me its kind of like "I know that things are going to be taken out".

Oh I know they completely changed it. I guess Ron is actually "trying" out in this movie, when we all know that happened in OotP but they completely took Quidditch out in that book.

I remember very little of the book. I read the books to my 3rd grade class last year and honestly, we skipped book 6 (this was mainly due to lack of time and I wanted to complete the series prior to school ending). The only chapter I read to them was the death one (just so they knew who died and who "killed" them). The death and the horcruxes are really all I remember in book 6 and I barely remember about the horcruxes (yeah that was fun trying to explain to my students ).
