I know I'm going to watch it are you?
OF COURSE I WILL!!!
I'm a crazy Harry Potter fan, so I'll go watch the HP movies no matter what... EVEN if the producers cut out scenes and altered a part of the story.
Oh, and I watched the Transformers movie and it's soo good.

Definitely watching it. I know it won't compare to the book, but I'll geek out over it anyway. Wasn't too fond of CAPSLOCK Harry in OoTP book, but maybe he'll be bearable in the movie. XD

100/10.
Yeah, you read that correctly. This movie rocked to Heaven and back again. I have never once in all my years on this planet seen, heard, or experienced anything quite so beautiful. From start to finish, you are immersed in the glory that this film effortlessly emits. If you love the books, you will shit yourself during this movie. No ifs, ands, or buts. You must see this movie and you must see it now. Viva La Potter!!!!!

One day yes, more likely in a year or 2 then the next months.
Best HP movie and is without a doubt Chamber of Secrets, the others don't live up to my expectations.
Yet again, im not as interestet in HP any more corse of 3 things:
1)The movies in general don't live up to my expectations
2) Book no 6 was ZzZz except a few flashbacks
3) My fav character is no more

I'm first going to point out the major points I didn't like...
WTF was with the Dementors? I liked them better in the 3rd movie...
The made CHO be the snitch? WTF? And they didn't even explain WHY?
What happened to the explanation about the prophecy and Neville?
Dumbledore crying in the 5th book made me cry...I wanted that moment! :(
The whole think with Kreacher...UGH! Just the fact that Harry and Dumbledore's big heart-to-heart was so lame :yell
And a bunch of my H/HR scene's were cut, and there's going to be even less in the next one. Couldn't this have been a 'Bon Voyage' moive for us H/HR shippers ? :cry6:
Other than that, it was good, but I think it steered off from the book a lot of the times, and some of those times were important.
aznxenocide
07-12-2007, 03:57 PM
Eh, they kept the IMPORTANT stuff....but they did ALOT of pruning. SOOOO much glossing over it's ridiculous. But it was still a pretty good movie, nonetheless.
Yea, the movie was good overall. I agree with the points above. Daniel's acting is still pretty bad and even though the Voldemort Dumbledore fight was impressive they should have apparated while fighting.

It was very good but i was as i would put rose tinted. They missed all the explaining out the ammount if kids i heared go Huh? and What? in that film and there odd looks was a be disapointing. Thought i think they enjoyed it nonetheless. They needed to be a few more scenes added. And the ending don't even get me started ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ. Am sure it was better in the book.

@emo: I thought they only got to be prefects in Book 6....I'm rereading it now, and that's where I see it. Although you may be right, I haven't read Order of the Phoenix in a REALLY long time.

Well, they did explain why Cho.. was the snitch. She was under the truth syrum, as seen in the sceen after Harry trys to floo out to Sirus they tell you that when Snape comes in and Umbridge is saying, "Snape did you bring the [truth syrum]." then he's all like "You used it all up when you were inquireing kids, the last of it on Miss Chang."
And atleast they added the Kreacher bit, I read that the director didn't even want to put Kreacher in, but JKR told him That it was important to have Kreacher in.
They kind of explained why Nevilles parents died in the 4th movie, and in this one, but it's hard to pick up, cause they just threw it all in there. Which blows.
But I didn't like how Sirus dies. He's supposed to get STUNNED, and then fall into the veil. -shakes fist at- That's why everyone was all like "hey, maybe Sirus is alive. He only got stunned..."
I also hate how They cut out over half of the prophecy. That's like the most important part in Harry Potter. >>
I saw it opening day, three times. And each time I was picking up on new things. =D

The spoiler things aren't working. >__<
I'm trying to fix them, but they just don't want to go up...
I got two complaints about the movie.
1st the girl that kissed harry, where the fuck did she go? she just disappeared...there was no apology?
2nd why the hell could those other kids fly on the things that "can only be seen by those who've seen death"
I could probably complain about more stuff but it was still a good movie. The funniest part was a guy trying to start the clapping two times at the end of the movie and failing. The movie just seemed like filler for the most part.

Yes it is Ron and Hermione get appointed as prefects. There still prefects in the 7th one i think as well.

So how do people rank the movies compared to each other?
Personally:
1)Chamber of Secrets
2)Global Of Fire(sp?)
3) Philosipher stone(sp?)
4) P O A(Movie dosn't deserve the name of the book)
Not sure where to place "order of the Phoenix" since i havn't seen it yet, but i can say with 90% security that it ain't tipping Chamber.

You have to do:
[spoiler=blahblah]the actual spoiler[/*spoiler]
yeah, took me awhile too. XD
Yeah, I was a big fan of POA. The Quidditch scenes especially. Although GOF is a close second. Not a big fan of all the pruning in this one.
And did they actually explain why Cho snitched? I didn't catch that...can someone repeat the reason why?
Well, they did explain why Cho.. was the snitch. She was under the truth syrum, as seen in the sceen after Harry trys to floo out to Sirus they tell you that when Snape comes in and Umbridge is saying, "Snape did you bring the [truth syrum]." then he's all like "You used it all up when you were inquireing kids, the last of it on Miss Chang."

ah. MUCH more enlightening, now that you've used complete sentences. Thanks! :p
They do point out how Neville's parents died though...they spent quite a bit of dialogue on it too.
The director didn't want Kreacher? o.O DAMN. He IS important. XD
*edit* eh, double posted. XD

Heh. I got rid of my double post.
Well, they didn't die, they were crucioed to the point of suffering even when they aren't supposed to, and they don't even know who they are, they think they are living before the incident.. I wish they showed them in the hospital. You could tell how much the crucio curse can be horrible.

Cilo i agree with every bit of that. I hated how the changed stuff like:
1. The inquister team didn't like watch that room that much or know where it was am sure they only know when Chang spilled it.
2. The who DA didn't get punished they got away with it am sure.
3. The vail bit what was that all about i hated how they cahnged that.
4. Why didn't the statue in the minsitry help save Harry am sure i read that somewhere in the book.
5. And how Harry got Snapes memories he got it from the pensive didn't he?

hm... i can understand you not liking the book.. different tastes i guess ;)
I love the books though :D not sure if I'll go see the movie. I most probably will... but then again I didn't watch the GOF one, and GOF was my favorite HP book... so yeah who knows XD
now that I think of it... I remember almost nothing of HP at the moment O___O;; crap <__>;

My guess its the way that is written that you don't like or maybe you don't like wizard stories to being with xD?
Its fine if you don't like them. I don't get the hype about LOTR and i don't like it but meh i don't care everyone but me could like it and i wouldn't mind xD

Okay I am currently watching Harry Potter OOTC and I still have about 40 minutes to go but I must say that this is the most boring one of all! I don't understand it...it's just a pile of scenes thrown atop of eachother and that makes a movie.:S I expected action and other stuff..but this? nahh..I think I will cancel my reservations for Saturday...this is not worth seeing twice..
Maybe that the last 40 minutes are better but I don't see it changing my view.

Me too. I'd like to have someone to explain to me why LOTR is so special. But since so many people found to be so they obviously have their resaons. I disagree but I give them some benefit of the doubt.

The last 40 minutes does have more action. But the beginning is far from "a pile of scenes thrown atop of eachother and that makes a movie", I actually think it flowed quite well in that the themes of political intrigue, censorship and thinly-veiled oppression, public panic and denial resounds (not to say personal development of Harry and Sirius and Luna...). I don't even agree with some of the interpretations of those underlined message, but I just think that is good that they brought it out (and theses themes did exist in the book).
But if you are just looking for fight after fight, yeah the first hour or so is pretty boring.
Riekie
07-17-2007, 02:23 PM
Nah..I am not looking for fight after fight but more suspense and well..storydevelopment. I liked the Goblet of Fire for that..it had some suspense which this movie totally lacks (still need to see the last 30/40 minutes though)..Not that I liked the Goblet of Fire but more entertaining than this one IMHO.

@loz: i didnt read the book, but i can understand what you mean. everything in books are better than what are they done in the movie. like the Da Vinci code. book was way better, tho i dont remeber cuz i red it long time ago
i might read the books starting with Goblet of fire, but when i start reading i never let go of the book, and keep going till i finish it all. and then got no time for anything else >_> .... lol

07-18-2007, 10:23 AM
Saw it yesterday, not bad not sure if i should place it as second or third best potter movie, just a bit to much action compared to storyline.
Not to forget Voldemort, that guy... Closest thing to come to mind looking at him: A Clown(Where's the awesome Voldemort of my fantasy from back when i read GoF :-( )
It's laughable that this one got a higher age rating then the others.
o.O
They're still alive? I thought they got crucio'd to death. Damn...do they mention that fact in Book 5?
Yeah they Actually go into the hospital room Neville's parents are in, and see Neville come visit them. Because Arthur was in the hospital, they went to go to the coffee room, walked past Gildory Lockheart, they get dragged into his room, and then Neville's parents are sharing a room with Gildory. and yeah... Neville comes and he's all embarssed and then explains what happened to his parents. It's one of those moments that make you hate Belatrix Lestrange even more, and I wish it was put in.
Although it was definitely the abridged version (painfully abridged)
I thought it was overall a good movie.

Lol, I watched Transformers a week before watching This movie, and that sure made my judgement fall slightly. Some of the voldermolt vs. Dombledore graphics had some problems, like I SAW THE BLUESCREEN FOR CRYING OUTLOUD. D: Also why did they have to overdo it abit? >__<
Im not a fan of the books either, I just watch the movie for entertainment. There are things I would change, but not about the story. Some of it was good while other things werent.
I rate it a 3/5, not more than that >_>

I saw it yesterday and I have to say, I'm a little disappointed. It's obvious that two hours is NOT enough to make a "good" movie out of JK Rowling's 800 page novel, they should have made it 3 so that the story could be fleshed out a little more.
The DA training, I found, was a little boring. Listening to Harry prep and cheer up his mates was meh. Also, I feel that Sirius' death was underplayed. IMO, that scene could have been more dramatic, but oh well. The Voldemort/Dumbledore fight was totally worth it. But, besides that, not as great as I thought it would be as a whole. The 'magic' wasn't there for me, lol.
This movie felt very rushed compared to the others, enough said.

Too short, A LOT of missing things, too rushed (things seriously happened too quickly), Most characters (bside harry ron hermione, etc) appeared for less than 2 minutes in a scene. For being the longest book, the movie was too short and too quick and im disappointed. I mean I dont even remember much mentioning about why voldemort wanted the prophecy, or the situation with Neville OR the quibbler. =_= im sleepy and Im not thinking so ill probably continue adding things tomorrow. (if im not too busy.)
