Well, I am pretty sure YOU'RE going to hate it. Ghavrel Send a noteboard - 19/11/2010 06:28:22 PM
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?

Will the review be spoiler-free or not? *NM* Fox and Ravens - 15/11/2010 09:56:24 PM 448 Views
Yeah, I plan to keep it vague. *NM* Ghavrel - 15/11/2010 11:45:46 PM 455 Views
I figure it's fair. I mean, the universe has to make up for you being you sometimes, right? LiterateDog - 15/11/2010 10:28:46 PM 824 Views
Sorry, I can't hear you over everyone in the theater talking before the film. Ghavrel - 15/11/2010 11:47:11 PM 789 Views
...If my friends and I can get a seat. Holy crap is this line long. *NM* Ghavrel - 15/11/2010 11:18:02 PM 438 Views

Hah, well, that subtext is probably a good thing (spoilers) beetnemesis - 16/11/2010 02:24:13 PM 924 Views
Yeah, but unfortunately it just comes off as being really out of nowhere. Ghavrel - 16/11/2010 05:29:26 PM 773 Views

I am sooooo over HP. I'll probably wait a week for the fan-storm to blow over, or wait 'till dvd. Bookwyrm - 16/11/2010 03:43:27 PM 889 Views
NSSP: So? Palatine - 16/11/2010 05:50:53 PM 668 Views
I'm thinking you'd be really, really, really confused. It might be a bit like surrealist art. Legolas - 16/11/2010 06:04:37 PM 826 Views
But the 7th book relies so heavily on the 6th, it would be pretty impossible. Ghavrel - 16/11/2010 08:29:28 PM 930 Views
You ought to read or watch them just for their cultural relevance. Ghavrel - 16/11/2010 08:30:45 PM 850 Views
I see the , but serioiusly, I don't think I need to. Palatine - 17/11/2010 05:53:27 PM 784 Views
It's about as influential as Star Wars, which I guess depends on how influential you think SW is. Ghavrel - 17/11/2010 09:23:55 PM 792 Views
That seems a bit early to say - wait till twenty years have passed, then check again. *NM* Legolas - 18/11/2010 03:46:24 PM 443 Views
Fair enough, but I think we're already seeing its influence on children's literature. *NM* Ghavrel - 19/11/2010 08:41:51 PM 479 Views

just saw it, I absolutely loved it. (spoilers) LadyLorraine - 20/11/2010 01:27:43 AM 765 Views
Yes, that part was so cool!! Darth_Katie - 20/11/2010 05:48:20 PM 780 Views
oh yeah! loved that animation, beautifully done *NM* Foxhead - 21/11/2010 01:00:24 AM 453 Views
I enjoyed it. Kel - 21/11/2010 12:17:40 AM 827 Views
didn't like 3/5 for me Foxhead - 21/11/2010 12:57:59 AM 899 Views
I'm glad it's 2 films, but the total run time could be 4 hours instead of 5 hours *NM* Deadsy - 21/11/2010 07:15:54 AM 424 Views
i guess even with severe editing one film would have ran for 4 hours Foxhead - 22/11/2010 11:53:13 AM 774 Views
the dance was one of the best scenes in the film, imo. *NM* Deadsy - 22/11/2010 07:09:26 PM 417 Views
Yeah, I really liked it. Darth_Katie - 22/11/2010 08:10:08 PM 735 Views
Re: Yeah, I really liked it. Rebekah - 23/11/2010 10:20:26 PM 720 Views
yes, but we can't have CHARACTERIZATION!!! LadyLorraine - 24/11/2010 06:55:39 AM 681 Views
For the dance, I would have chosen "insipid." Ghavrel - 25/11/2010 01:04:10 AM 806 Views
it wasn't characterisation, it was horribly awkward and clumsily crowbarred in Foxhead - 25/11/2010 01:15:20 AM 641 Views
*shrug* I liked the scene. It was something lighthearted in the middle of a lot of bleakness LadyLorraine - 25/11/2010 01:43:14 AM 697 Views
I was against the idea of splitting it when that was first announced ironclad - 29/11/2010 03:02:27 PM 751 Views
Completely agreed. Rebekah - 29/11/2010 04:44:57 PM 778 Views
#6 was way too rushed and should have been split. trzaska2000 - 01/12/2010 07:55:34 PM 717 Views
My biggest problem with the movie (spoiler free) Jeordam - 22/11/2010 05:58:15 PM 900 Views

Daniel Radcliffe IS Harry Potter Darth_Katie - 24/11/2010 11:28:53 PM 789 Views
I didn't expect it to make the other films look that poor ironclad - 25/11/2010 11:20:53 PM 735 Views
I also enjoyed the slower pace at times..... trzaska2000 - 01/12/2010 07:59:44 PM 798 Views
Wow. Awesome. Makes it all the sadder how bad the others were, but oh well. Legolas - 26/11/2010 10:48:35 PM 800 Views
A few more detailed thoughts about why this film blows its predecessors out of the water ironclad - 29/11/2010 02:46:23 PM 890 Views
One scene they could have made scarier (spoilers) beetnemesis - 30/11/2010 05:16:42 PM 816 Views
oh I dunno... ironclad - 01/12/2010 08:25:20 AM 803 Views
Compared to the original scene, though? beetnemesis - 01/12/2010 03:00:44 PM 715 Views
Everything is scarier at 3 AM. *NM* Darth_Katie - 01/12/2010 06:10:25 PM 392 Views
No. nossy - 02/12/2010 12:19:22 AM 775 Views
