Corrected entry: When Luna just entered the Room of Requirement, and Filch, Malfoy, Crabbe, and Goyle are running after her. The members of the Dumbledore's Army are standing around the dummy practicing on it. It is extremely clear that Neville says expelliarmus, and succeeds, but no one applauds him (this is before he disarms Parvati.).

Corrected entry: In the Room of Requirement, Neville tells Harry that Bellatrix Lestrage is the Death Eater who tortured his parents. However, in the previous film, Dumbledore's pensieve shows that Barty Crouch Jr. did it (and was sent to Azkaban for it.).
Correction: The Longbottoms were tortured by a group containing both Crouch and the Lestranges.

Correction: In the first instance, Neville is using the spell on a dummy, which is hardly difficult to hit with a successful spell. In the second instance, Neville's taking on a live opponent, and defeats her, which is a considerably harder challenge. Given his perceived lack of ability, his first victory in a duel, even a practice one, is understandably worthy of applause.
