At first, I wasn't sure what to think when I heard they were splitting the adaptation into two parts. I mean, who could forget those seemingly never-ending camping scenes from the first half of Deathly Hallows? But after giving it another go, I've really come to see the richness of the story.

What really grabs me is how the characters grapple with these enormous expectations weighing them down. And their friendship? It's seriously put to the test through it all but somehow manages to stick it out.

I mean, we're talking about everything from pulling off daring heists in government buildings to literally carrying around a piece of Voldemort's soul. And don't even get me started on those surreal moments, like seeing your pals appear as ghostly forms making out while you're wrestling with a sword you found in a random puddle.
