Lupin? What about Lupin?
Lupin is there, of course, and he does a solid job in the scenes he is in, but there is nothing new there.
That is sad. I liked that bit, too. And quite a lot of stuff happens there. If they cut that, then what are they spending time on? Just the forest? Hmm, I shouldn't ask. I should just curse Ben and Rebekah and Tim for convincing me to wait until Tuesday to see it.
There is more time spent in the forest than I would like, but that applies to the book as well. As I said, they cut the Taboo, so while there are a few Deat Eaters out of nowhere it moves to the infiltration of the Ministry rather quickly.
Hmm. Not a great fan of action, me. And I find duels deadly (deathly?) dull to watch, as a rule.
Hm. I pretty much only watch the movies for the awesome factor, so I suppose it is a matter of taste. Voldemort is as creepy as ever; do you like him?

I figure it's fair. I mean, the universe has to make up for you being you sometimes, right?

Sorry, I can't hear you over everyone in the theater talking before the film.

Yeah, but unfortunately it just comes off as being really out of nowhere.

I am sooooo over HP. I'll probably wait a week for the fan-storm to blow over, or wait 'till dvd.

I'm thinking you'd be really, really, really confused. It might be a bit like surrealist art.

But the 7th book relies so heavily on the 6th, it would be pretty impossible.

You ought to read or watch them just for their cultural relevance.

It's about as influential as Star Wars, which I guess depends on how influential you think SW is.

That seems a bit early to say - wait till twenty years have passed, then check again. *NM*

Fair enough, but I think we're already seeing its influence on children's literature. *NM*

I'm glad it's 2 films, but the total run time could be 4 hours instead of 5 hours *NM*

i guess even with severe editing one film would have ran for 4 hours

it wasn't characterisation, it was horribly awkward and clumsily crowbarred in

*shrug* I liked the scene. It was something lighthearted in the middle of a lot of bleakness
