I CRIED DURING THOSE SCENES TOO. But I smiled at the end.
My theater clapped too. Neville was freaking awesome ,and yay Mrs. Weasley. AND YES, THE SNAPE SCENES WERE SO GOOD.
I actually loved the epilogue .Other than Bonnie and Tom, I thought they did a pretty good job with the aging and I loved the children and Harry's bravest man I ever knew quote (SO MANY LINES WERE STRAIGHT FROM T HE BOOK!) and the way the music from the end of the first film, when Harry is going on the train to go home and he says "It's not goodbye, not really", played. That entire scene was actually pretty emotional for me ,so when the kids wave goodbye and the trio smiles at the end, I had to smile. I thought the acting was just amazing in this film. Phenomenal. But it was weird, lol.
Wait, didn't Draco and Harry nod? I thought that happened? If it didn't and I imagined it, Tom's mentioned it a lot, so I think there's a longer version of the epilogue in the deleted scenes.
I understand why they removed Dumbledore's history (it's back story we don't really need for the films, like lots of Voldemort's parental history that they also removed from earlier films), but it was so essential to have Harry's horcrux VS. hallows debate, and they removed that as well. :/
Overall though, I thought the film was a fantastic finale, and I really really loved it.
