Aaah... Thank you much. I've got the urge to go back and read the old books again now, but maybe I'll just go see the new movie.
I was leaning towards not doing so, because their visual interpretation of Umbridge struck me as very different from the book and I didn't care too much for Gambon's new Dumbledore... too much shouting, lacking the serene playfulness and gravitas of Richard Harris. The whole of film four just felt like a hurried collage of scenes from the book rather than a coherent story.
... but perhaps I will give this new one a chance.
