I was in the theater that the midnight screening was held (the theater was large, and there were ropes outside). There were people outside waiting to see the IMAX version. When I walked in the theater, they were rolling the credits from the previous screening. :)

The film was epic, amazing, fantastic, and (I hate to say it) quite funny at points.
I really liked the WB logo in this one, especially the rust. It looked like an old bike :-)) The HP logo reminded me of the OOTP one. Here are some of my favorite scenes.

Opening montage: Really emotional. Very moving, especially when Hermione disappears from family photos :-(( The Dursley's Departig was okay.

The Dark Lord Ascending: GREAT SCENE! Snape flying to Malfoy Manor was EPIC! It was cool to see Voldemort laugh, "Spoken like a true polititan." Charity Burbage was scary. Great opening!

Weasley Twins: The most likable characters (except for Dobby) in this film. I WAS SO HAPPY they kept the 'holey' joke in!

7 Potters Chase: Epic! I especially enjoyed the part when they're in the tunnel and the CAR CRASH! :-j

Burrow scenes: Good! Especially when you can hear Fred ang George yelling was funny. Them putting up the tent with their wands was cool!

Wedding: Cool! I liked how Ron was staring at Hermione. Xeno and Luna FTW (epic dance moves) Message was awesome! One thing was that they needed to put something in between them Disapparating and Apparating. It was too quick!

London scenes: Gritty! I lol'd to"Oh my god, Harry, we forgot your birthday. Ginny and I made a cake...."

Montage w/ H. Express/Ministry/ Diagon Alley: Awesome! It was funny when Cormac said, "Wait till my father hears of this" Hey, someone had to fulfill Draco's famous line! :-))

Dobby: Best, most heart-warming scene, especially when Dobby and Kreacher stepping in front of eachother. :D

Ministry: Brought the magic back! The three adult actors were SPOT ON!! I loved how Umbridge's office has a view of the Atrium. "Muggles in their rightful place," was chilling.

Camping scenes: Surprisingly not bad. I don't think we'll see extended versions of these. Critics said this slowed down the movie, but I think it was perfect. They are on a mission you know! These were perfectly paced. Landscapes are astonishing!

Hermione face-to-face with Scabior: The shaky camera was

    PERFECT for this scene!

    Ron leaving: Phenomenal acting

    H/Hr Dance: Short, but sweet. Dan's dancing was hilarious!

    Godric's Hollow/Bathilda: Scariest part of the movie! Every time Nagini leaped at the camera, I jumped back (even though I knew what was going to happen! Bit disappointing with the transformation. You just see her under her cloak and then snake jumps out

    Destroying the locket: REALLY EPIC! The tornado was awesome! :-j

    H/Hr kiss: :O They looked so REAL! Emma looked like she was modeling for a magazine when she stepped out of the tornado! The kiss was so intense! Emma really is an animal!

    3 Brothers Animation: Again, :O . It looked EXACTLY like Tim Burton's The Nightmare Before Christmas!

    Snatchers: I loved how Hermione tied the scark to the tree and then Scabior gets it at the same forest! Scabior is kind of perverted...

    Chase: INCREDIBLE! Really confusing, but I'm not sure if I'll be able to watch this scene when I'm old!

    Malfoy Manor: AWESOME! Bella vs. Snatchers was EPIC! I'm not sure, but did Bellatrix yell "Go! Go!" to the Snatchers like the featurette?

    Hermione's torture: I really mean it this time, :O . It was HEART-BREAKING! Emma Watson's screams are terrible (in a good way). I almost lost it when she started crying!

    Mudblood: CHILLING + AWESOME!

    Dobby's Death: :-(( It was dreadful! My eyes got wet!

    Voldemort + Dumbledore: Too abrupt, but otherwise incredibly eerie!

    Overall, this film is AMAZING!! It really gives you that "Where the #$%& is Part 2?!". This movie did, however, NEED transitions! The switch from one scene to the next was too quick! They should've added shots (PoA-esque). This film better be out on DVD by March!!! Can't wait to see it again in IMAX!
