Didn't it leave out the Marauders plotline?

That was one of the things that stuck out to me. There was no payoff in terms of Lupin knowing how the Marauder's map works. I know that the film/book explained it as "Lupin is the DADA teacher therefore he's familiar with material items that can be magicked."
But a big part of book 3's brilliance was that this particular year Harry uncovered part of his father's past. The Maruader's map, Lupin himself, the form of Patronus...all of that ties the story together.

The film leaving out the Marauder's origins and the importance of Harry's Patronus had me liking the film less than I wanted.

Yes, if I hadn't read the books I still would be able to follow the story and find it satisfactory, but still...

I guess it bothers me more because the Marauder's roles and their animagus forms play a big part of the story in the books, and the films never addressed it.
