To be fair they didn't know about the Thestrals when they were filming PS, as it was long before OotP came out. I think it bugs me more than Harry's hair and eyes because of all the fics where Hermione magically gets straight hair. It's tied up with my identification with her as geeky!bookworm!notbothered withSleakeasy!Hermione
True - although I would've thought JKR would tell them Harry seeing Quirrell die would contradict the future canon - and anyway, you'd think Harry would be traumatized seeing a guy crumble right before him, but nope, he's cool as a cucumber.

Yes, and wearing makeup and suddenly is a lot more curvy and Harry and Ron are blibbering drooling fools over HermioneSue all of a sudden... ergh. I understand.
