Ha ha, I should have gone to the theater with you! :)
I thought Neville's impromptu speech was a very good piece of screenwriting, and the whole confrontation between the forces of Voldemort and Hogswarts (in that scene especially) was handled so well. There could have been a lot of histrionic handwringing, but instead there was this matter-of-fact, truly righteous attitude on the part of the defenders that was a pleasure to watch.
And yeah, I loved that the ending came down to the three of them, then and now, and it was perfect and I cried happily all over again because they were OK.
