You are probably right on that, but they still didn't really cover it's significance at all. They nargle bargled up the whole point of the title.

That was another weirdly done thing. The movie implied multiple times that Snape is Harry's real father. It sure looked like it did. It only said that he loved Harry's mother for sure. Going to that much effort to protect the kid is a pretty heavy implication that the kid really was his. The whole thing in the movie was ambiguously articulated and that point really needed to be clear. The fact that he was really a double agent was implied so often throughout the movies that it would have been more surprising if he really was a bad guy. Either way, that's cool, just wish they had revealed the truth more clearly than a bunch of incoherent flashbacks and mumbling.

Wow, that never even crossed my mind. I can see why it could though. Maybe it was conveyed different visually than it was written, but I never never got that impression. Interesting.

Agreed. I can't remember how exactly, but I do think it was communicated better in the book. But maybe because I knew and was waiting to see how they would do it, I was okay with how it happened in the movie. And true that it would have been surprising had he actually turned out to be bad, but there was (for me anyway) a twinge where I wasn't 100% sure which way he would go in the end.
And yes the Resurection stone was basically an unused afterthought.
I like typing in spoiler text. Rarely am I able to convey information that is not widely known! :)

Yeah, now that I think about that, I can easily see where someone would get that impression from the vague flashbacks.
