Meh. Not really excited. I used to like the Harry Potter movies, but for some reason now I just can't enjoy any of them.

I don't know, guess I just got bored of them.

I hate audiobooks. I can't imagine what's going on in the story if someone's reading it aloud. I dunno why, I just can't.

by **Steel Sponge** 10/21/2010, 6:51 pm

Didn't watch the Harry Potter movies very much. But...there might be a chance I'll see this one.

by **Wumbology** 10/21/2010, 7:18 pm

Sorry guys, I'm just not a fan of the fantasy genre in general. The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe was a kickass movie, however.

by **SOF** 10/21/2010, 8:34 pm

looking forward to seeing HPATDH Part 1 once it comes out in theaters.

by **tvguy347** 10/21/2010, 9:06 pm

EEE!! *girly fanboy shriek* I'm a HUGE Harry Potter fan! I've read the series around three times. I love it! SOO Happy

I can't wait until the movie comes out!

Oh my gosh, me too! I've read the entire series about five times! The Goblet of Fire and the Deathly Hallows were my two absolute FAAAAAAVES!!!

by **TarterSauce25** 10/22/2010, 5:27 pm

Not a big fan of Harry Potter...but I may see this one in the cheap seats or on DVD.

I just hope they don't make the first part in 3-D. I hate it when they covert movies into 3-D, and they lure people into the movies claiming it has "amazing" 3-D. Bullshit to 3-D.

by **♣CF♣** 10/22/2010, 5:28 pm

I don't think I'm gonna see this movie.

The seven books of "Chronicles of Narnia" are better, but thats one of the few book-movies I actually like. But still, high five or originality1

Seriously, I don't get the hype of Harry Potter. They'r boring, overrated, and I can't get into them. Books and movies both.

Well, I guess it's just a matter of opinion.

i can't wait till i see this, it's going to be awesome

by **Doogle.** 11/17/2010, 4:17 pm

Not gonna see it until Saturday 27th November. :'(

by **terminoob** 11/17/2010, 5:08 pm

Going to the midnight premier with a friend of mine. Decided to spring for the "Harry Potter Adventure" thing, so tickets were $20, but they're showing the fifth and sixth movies before it, with the fifth starting at 6pm.

Just 26 more hours!

by **Clappy** 11/17/2010, 9:52 pm

I know I am going to the midnight premiere! So stoked!

by **terminoob** 11/18/2010, 5:03 pm

2 hours until the adventure starts.

!!!!!

by **Jelly** 11/18/2010, 9:47 pm

Can not wait! I'm in the process of convincing my friends so we can go this Saturday, but yah, need to watch it as soon as possible!

But, ya know? I feel they haven't advertised it as much as I feel it deserves. I mean, it IS the second-to-last Harry Potter movie!!!! Whoa!

by **terminoob** 11/19/2010, 12:18 am

43 minutes left.

And I get to sit next to the two obnoxious people every theater has.

by **that70sguy92** 11/19/2010, 9:35 am

I always manage to sit next to the obnoxious people. Most of the time it's two girls who won't shut the fuck up, then there was this one time a guy was FILMING THE MOVIE. -.-

But yeah, I'm definitely seeing this Saturday.

by **terminoob** 11/19/2010, 3:35 pm

The only part of the movie that disappointed me was the ending. I knew it was going to end at that point, and I wanted to be wrong, but I wasn't. Meh, still a good ending, though.

Definitely my favorite one so far.

Sidenote: I never noticed how funny the Half Blood Prince was (or at least scenes when Harry is on Liquid Luck) until I rewatched it last night. Though, I might've been sugar high, thanks to a dinner consisting of Red Bull and gummy worms.

And yeah, Half-Blood Prince is really funny, especially the Liquid Luck scenes.

Dammit. I had a feeling it would end there. -.- Though it bugs me, that's a good ending.

by **Clappy** 11/20/2010, 11:02 am

So I saw it last night at 10:30 PM like I told you guys on the XAT yesterday and....

Spoiler:

Oh and on a non spoiler note, four cellphones went off during the movie. I hate douchebags who don't silence their phones during movies.

by **TarterSauce25** 11/20/2010, 9:45 pm

Just saw this. It was pretty good, but I didn't understand a lot of it because I haven't seen all the movies and read all the books.

Time to start reading the 7 books and renting the first 6 movies on Netflix. SOO Happy

Huh? Why would you go see the movie if you haven't read/watch the other six? Silly Face!

Yeah reading the books and watching the other movies would indeed help you understand it a lot better

If you see the last movie before reading the books and seeing the other movies, it ruins it!

by **ExKizuna** 11/21/2010, 1:47 pm

I saw it yesterday with a bunch of friends, and even though I USED TO not like Harry Potter, I saw this and...

IT WAS FUCKING EPIC.

Anyone that just watches the films is missing out on so much. Silly Face!

Just saying..

by **Deli** 11/21/2010, 6:17 pm

I just got back from watching Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows; Part 1. And well, let me just go right out and say it. The movie was good, but it left out a lot of crucial information and important details. Time for a rant.

The Good:

-The special effects were amazing, which was the best thing about the movie. (Pardon the spoiler) Like the scene where Nagini pops up from Bathilda Bagshot's throat nearly made me piss myself. The visuals were beautiful and very realistic.

-The acting was very good too. You could really tell that Daniel Radcliffe and Emma Watson really threw themselves into this movie. Rupert Grint... eh, not so much. Ron started to get on my nerves a little. Surprisingly there were many comedic elements in the movie, which is rare for an HP film. Fred and George were hilarious, and seeing Daniel Radcliffe in a bra is something I will never forget.

-The actors they had chosen to play Death Eaters and minor characters were extremely accurate to their description in the books.

-There are parts in the movie that will make you tear up to high heaven, because I cried about three or so times in during the movie, and there wasn't a dry eye in the theater either.

The Not So Good:

The movie just doesn't even compare to the book. I mean, they got a lot of things wrong (Prepare yourself for some tiny spoilers).

-For instance; in the book, when Hermione and Harry go into Godric's Hollow, they used a good amount of Pollyjuice Potion. In the movie, they refused to do so.

-Bellatrix never tackled Hermione and scraped the word ''mudblood'' into her skin in the book.

-They completely left out the conversation that Dean, Griphook, Gornuk, and Ted were having in the woods (which Harry, Ron, and Hermione were listening in on).

-The Dursleys aren't supposed to leave until they get wind that The Order of The Phoenix is coming to get Harry, and when more Muggle killings were reported.

-After his confrontation with Umbridge, Harry (in the Pollyjuice Potion form of Ministry worker Albert Runcorn) is supposed to have ripped Mad Eye's eye off the socket in her door and bury it.

-The book is supposed to open up right to Snape, Yaxley, and Lucius Malfoy walking into Malfoy's mansion, the HQ of Lord Voldemort. Instead, it shows the Dursleys leaving and other events happening in Ron, Harry, and Hermione's point of view.

-Wormtail is supposed to have strangled himself with his metal arm and Harry should've attempted to pull the arm away from the man's throat. Instead, Dobby knocks him out with the Stupefy spell and sets the others free from the cellar Bellatrix had locked them in (If you wanna know why, then I suggest checking YouTube or your local theater or bookstore).

Feel free to tell me I'm being a nitpick, but I'm sorry. It's just that I'm a huge Harry Potter fan, and a lot of these moments were very crucial in the book and movie.

Aside from this one. They hardly missed anything.

by **terminoob** 11/21/2010, 8:14 pm

Comedy isn't rare for HP films.

They all had bits of them, but the last three (this one, Half Blood Prince and Order of the Phoenix) were all really funny.

I'll say what I said on another forum where someone also complained about this movie: You can't expect them to add everything. If they did, it'd be even longer than it already was, and at that point it'd just be better to make it long enough to contain the entire book. It'd be boring if they did a movie from a book line for line. You read the book already, why should it matter? You know what happened and what's going on already; they only include what's absolutely necessary, so people like me who didn't read the books know what's going on without having all these plots intertwine, since it's easier to go back and re-read something if it confuses you, but you can't do that in a movie unless it's on a DVD (and they tweak a few things here and there, like Headwig's death, for example).

by **tvguy347** 11/26/2010, 5:37 pm

I'm going to go see I today. Smile

So excited!!
