I wish that he would have kept the wand. In case they wanted to make more movies when english actor who played Harry was like 30 or something.

Snape being good was probably a big surprise for you! Lucky Harry got to him before he died. He should have made some tears just in case he died before Harry caught up with him.

That was probably the first tear that man has ever shed in his life lol

Like i mentioned there's still the Resurrection stone that Harry just so conviently dropped on the ground in the woods for anyone to find -_-'

I can't recall if the film did this bit the same, but in the books the memories Snape gave Harry had some of him crying. (Also Snape didn't cry the memories to Harry, he gave them to him in a vial)

Also regarding the Horcruxes... As Dumbledore explained in Limbo (the train station when Voldemort killed Harry) Voldemort split his soul into 8 parts, the last of which was in Harry, and that's what he killed when he tried to kill Harry (and it was represented by the ugly crying infant) Which left just Voldemort himself and Nagini the snake.

I can't quite recall exactly how it was explained, but when Voldemort killed (or at least when he killed people he believed important) he was able to contain the ripped part of his soul in a vessel of his choice.
So first was killing his father & grandparents at the Riddle house, and that he used to create the Riddle diary (later destroyed in The Chamber of Secrets in Harry's 2nd year).
I think the second killing was probably Marvolo Gaunt (his maternal grandfather), creating the 2nd horcrux in the ring (ignorant that the ring held the ressurection stone) this was destroyed by Dumbledore in between book 5 and 6 (and was why he had the dead hand)
Other deaths created the Horcruxes for the locket [slytherin], cup [hufflepuff], diadem [ravenclaw] and Nagini. Bringing the total to 6 horcruxes plus himself before he tried to kill infant Harry.

Lily's love saved Harry and caused Voldemort's body to be destroyed, and unknown to him also created a kind of horcrux with Harry himself. His mind and original shard of soul roamed the world until the events of Harry's first year (possessing prof. Quirrel). Some more roaming until he was found by Pettigrew, and then of course came back. He then had 7 pieces of soul (thinking riddle's diary was intact, but not knowing of the one in Harry). Dumbledore brought him down to six, Ron to 5, Hermione to 4 and Crabbe to 3. Voldmort himself then killed the one in Harry, and Neville killed Nagini.

The final battle between V & HP in the book was more protracted than the film (naturally films extend any action scenes) but strictly speaking Voldemort killed the final part of himself with his own curse.... which means Harry only really destroyed one part of Voldemort personally: The diary.

EDIT: hmm just done some minor research and some seem to think the diary was created by the death of moaning Myrtle, and that the Gaunt ring was used for his paternal family killing. I'm not sure what Rowling intended but I assumed Voldemort would have to personally kill someone to be able to create a Horcrux, but Myrtle was killed by the basilisk.
