One thing I've heard mentioned a lot is the flying Death Eaters in the Half Blood Prince movie. It was actually done by both Death Eaters and the Order in Order of the Phoenix, but not quite to that extent.

What do you think?

Stupid stupid stupid stupid!
I hated it! But I think from the movie rant, we already knew that. Lol.
In Order of the Pheonix, (the movie, not the group) I think they mainly used it in a sort of Apparating way, except that scene in the dias room, but then again, it was small distances.
Half Blood Prince just took it too far, having them flying all over london. *rolls eyes* So I take it no one is going to be surprised Voldemort can fly without a broom in the seventh film.

I took it as the physical manifestation of apparating, but it still seemed a bit overboard.

I enjoyed it but it confuses me. Wouldn't the muggles see them?

It hardly looks instantaneous with the smoke trails.

For some reason I can't vote in this poll, but I shall certainly add my opinion, though it's not a new one.

It's stupid. There's no need for it. Either give them brooms, or have them appear. Almost everyone watching the movie will know what Apparating is, so it makes way more sense than having them fly around!

That's the problem I have with book-based movies. So much of the time, they add or change things unnecessarily. How much would it have affected the movie plot or length if they'd just Apparated?
