Movie: Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part 2
Basic Plot: Harry and his pals star in the final movie of the Harry Potter series and there are wizards, witches, giant snakes, and giant giants.
I'm Okay With: The fact that the wizarding world considers the term "mud blood" to be bad, but has no problem calling non-magic people "muggles" even though that sounds way more derogatory. The fact that Harry is the luckiest son of bitch ever. The fact that even though Ron is basically worthless when it comes to using magic, Harry still brings him along on his adventures which involves taking on evil wizards, dragons, werewolves, and giants. The fact that the bad guys had Hogwarts booby-trapped and Harry was still able to easily sneak inside. The fact that spell-check now considers Voldemort and Hogwarts as real words.
I'm Not Okay With: The fact that after Harry kills Voldemort (I would have said Spoiler Alert, but if you didn't know that that was where these movies were heading, then you were either pulling for the bad guys or an idiot), no one seems to acknowledge that he had just rid the world of Wizard Hitler. Seriously, he limps back into the Great Hall with blood pouring out of numerous spots on his body and only Hagrid even notices he's still alive, and he only hugs him and walks away. Everyone saw he and Voldemort were fighting and when only Harry comes back, you would think everyone would be a little more appreciative of what no one else was able to do - you know, kill Voldemort, the biggest threat to the Wizarding World. Instead, they ignore him and are either mourning the dead (which is understandable) or laughing with friends. In the first movie, Harry wins the Quidditch Cup and they throw a huge party, but when he defeats the wizard that wanted to enslave the world, they pretend like nothing happened. I am not okay with that.

Clarification - they should be Hogwarts uniforms for girls of age. Actually better make it over 18 to be safe.
