Did anyone who got upset actually read the book? There was only one scene in the entire movie that bothered me, because it was completely uncalled for, and nothing in the book suggested it, in fact, it was just the opposite. The scene I had a problem with was the dance scene in the tent which looked like it might become a romantic scene.
But the "nude scene" was done pretty tastefully, and that entire scene really surprised me, because I honestly had no idea how they were going to portray it.
In fact, I thought that the movie was remarkably close to the book, in fact, moreso than many of the other movies.

We read the book, and yes it was in there, but it did seem a little explicit to me.
The dance scene was also out of place. I guess it was in there to show Harry cheering Hermione up, and yes, it seemed to start to point to a romantic involvement not in the book. Out of place - the problem Harry had continually was dealing with his own anger, not Hermione’s.
I think what disappointed us so much was being that they broke it into two parts, we were hoping they would take the opportunity to not leave so much out. (I was so disappointed with book 5, that so much was left out - St Mungo’s, and all).
But I guess I’m not the first person ever to see a movie and say the “Book was better....”
