BORED! There were too many long pauses between many of the dialogues. I admit the final volume was very big and they could have no way fit the entire book into one film, but still ... I was expecting so much more. Some of the scene to scene editing was bad. Not as bad as Azkaban, but it's close. And they should have expanded the escape scene at the start of the film; I thought it was over way too quickly and missing some elements from the book.
I am so glad I did not waste more money on the IMAX experience, as all it would have done was enhance my boredom and knock me right out. haha
I give it 3 out of 5 Harrys.

BOHICA - Go ahead, ask me what it means.

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.

Hah, well, that subtext is probably a good thing (spoilers)

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

yes, but we can't have CHARACTERIZATION!!!

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

I was against the idea of splitting it when that was first announced
