I just think they could have focused a little less on the 'love story' part of it..seemed like they were trying to appeal more to the Twilight crowd..they could have much more in depth of some of the fight scenes like the book did...to me it felt like the just breezed over the best part of the book. And we were left with yet another typical tween movie

what is going to be the next film after this one ive read only one of the books and whats going to happen

I'm not saying you'll either have to wait...or read the book...trust me the authors tell you a lot better than I ever will be able to!

i read it on net and i have to say it sounds like it is going to be a great ending yay i dont know what im going to do when it finally does finish

harry potter is not for nerds.
it is the graphics that are the wonder here. how in the hell do u morph a man into a wolf, and vice versa. can any of u on MINGLE do this?
then, i am positive that a rat one of the kids was holding bit him, and turned into a man right before our eyes....
and furthermore ima old lady, and i was spellbound. now am ia nerd? nope you dope.

I have to agree, even though I "knew" from book one that one of the twins would end up dying somewhere in the series.

Sorry, didn't mean to get your feathers ruffled.

That was rude of me.

hahahahaha
to nope ya dope....

ruffled my feathers.......nope ya rattled my cage...

I must say I loved all the books, and the ending is just breathtakingly spectacular! Not once did I expect that out of Mrs. Weasley!!!

I was vindicated in my total belief in Snape as well. Never once did I waiver in my belief that he was working for the side of the good.


But in regards to the movies, the first two were good, Prisoner of Azkaban started the downhill slide (they left a lot of needed information out of it), Goblet of Fire was good, but again they left a lot out. Number five, in my mind really and truly sucked (the movie). About the only reference it made to the books in my opinion, was the names of the characters. It left way too much information out that is needed in order to understand the 6th and 7th story, and altered the entire timeline of the whole movie.

Number 6 appears to be better than number five by a major degree, but again it is almost completely different from the book. A lot was left out, and a lot was outright changed. For example, I do NOT remember Bellatrix attacking harry potter outside the weasleys home and taunting him over killing sirius. First that whole scene was originally in book five, atthe ministry of magic prior to Voldemort showing up. And secondly, in the book the Weasleys did not have their home burned.

Sorry, I am one who likes a good movie and book combination but gets really frustrqted when they outright change the entire story when they do the movie, lol.

oh azkaban not askaban...well something like that..
i still liked it..missing information or not. my favorite character was the horse with wings, and beak head.

you mean buckbeak! yes I liked him as well!!!

OMG the twins die do you mean the weasly twins. i see from the lack of info i have im going to have to read the books. i must agree with duffy...i dont really mind them changing things or if info was missing, the films are just as great its the graphics that get me they are trully good. when they make films they have a certain amount of time to finish so maybe cutting corners is a way to make sure they keep to the time slots for each scene.

i hope you have learnt your lesson mr dissing harry potter fans is not tollerated but its ok im not hurt. may the force be with you

Bridgette you definitely need to read the books. They are almost a completely different story from the movie.

In regards to the post above about putting too much into the love story aspect, they barely even touched on it. They ad-libbed a bit with Ron and Hermione in regards to Ron dreaming about Hermione while in the hospital wing, but in the book, Ron and Hermione do finally get together. And in regards to Harry and Ginny, I was absolutely dissapointed. Throughtout the first half of the book, it goes on about how Harry is finally starting to ralize his true feelings for Ginny, and the normal awkward moments when they almost show themselves when he and Ron are talking about Ginny and her boyfriends. It goes on to describe the monster of jealousy growing in Harry whenever he see Ginny with another guy. Their first kiss was after a succesful quidditch match also, when both were feeling triumphant about winning the match (Ginny stayed on the team after earning a place on it in number 5). It was a completely spontaneous moment fr both of them and happened in front of a lot of people, including Ron.

So no, I must say the did not put enough into the emotional aspects of the movie, though I did like how in the movie, Ginny kisses Harry in the room of aquirement and then says she can hide up there too in deference to Harrys confusion about how he feels toward her.

What I enjoy about HP is the notion that just outside of our view is this whole other world we (muggles) know nothing about.

Shape has got it going on!!!

He sure does! I have to admit a secret and say he was my favorite charectar the entire way through. The fact thathe and Lilly grew up together, kinda through me for a loop, but I always "knew" the reason he hated harry was because James got Lily, and Snape didn't.

have you read in any of the books that snape is still on harrys side though because i looked at a piece about the next film and it didnt really say a lot.

Pu it this way. Harry and Ginny name one of there son's "Albus Severus Paotter" after "the two greatest headmasters Hogwarts has ever had".
