Re: Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows movie Part 1

I'm sure that a very great percent of the people watching the movie have already read the books so spoilers shouldn't be that surprising or anything (unless you haven't read them in a while)

I thought that the movie was okay as a standalone but I thought some of the acting definitely could have been better with the trio during their Horcrux escapades (which makes up a lot of the movie so). This is really more of a stepping stone/setting-the-stage kind of movie for part 2 though imo. And I'm overall still kinda pissed that they made the movie into 2 parts. x(

I like that they divided the movie in 2 parts, that way they don't have to rush or skip mayor details of the book the only thing that i don't like about making it 2 parts is the wait between them.

Exactly what I don't like about it.

The last two movies kind of fell flat for me, so I wasn't really expecting much of this one either. But wow. I loved it, great production and they did well at capturing the book, maybe a few slips but all-in-all it was wonderful. I even got a bit teary when Dobby smurfed.

One thing that bugged me was the lack of chemistry between Ron and Hermione, and the overload of sexual tension between Harry and Hermione. Anyone else?

I hate Harry Potter.

No doubt I'll be dragged along to this soon and more than likely will fall asleep through it, again.

One day I'm going to devote an ENTIRE day to Harry Potter movie's and just watch all of them from the very beginning all the way to the end.

That's a question for my bladder.

God help the person with a full bladder in the scene where the snake jumps out from the floor..

I nearly shat.

I LOVED the locket opening scene. Harry and Hermione looked like Xerxes luls

Re: Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows movie Part 1

I am not convinced that they needed two movies to tell this story effectively. Seems more like a money-squeeze effort.

It's the same sort of logic they used for making the final episode of LOST extra-long. "We wanted to make sure nothing was rushed and that we told the final part of the story properly, blahblahblah." If this were true, then omfg, why so much filler? I admit, I loved the movie on the whole, but holy ****, was that ever slow. I was dead-bored halfway in.

Now I have to wait for nearly another year to see the final half. Arghhh.

I would have preferred that they released both movies at the same time in June instead of them teasing us with 1 movie 6 months before the next one is out. I guess I'll just have to bite my fingernails til then :/

Am I the ONLY one that didn't like this movie...? I adore Harry Potter, I've read all the books, seen all the movies. I just personally DIDN'T like it. I thought that they missed a lot, and changed so much stuff that it didn't do the book justice. I figured that since it was almost 2 and a half hours dedicated to only the first part, that it would be better. But it just wasn't to me.

There were some parts that were spot on with the books. There were others that I was completely pissed off about, because they were nothing like the books, or they weren't even there.

Also, I was kind of mad at my theatre of people. Someone was laughing during (what has already been said, so there's no point in making a spoiler of it) Dobby's death.

Honestly what do you expect? its not like they could copy the book exactly, and if they did it would be boring because people like you would know EXACTLY what will happen each and every scene. It throws in the element of surprise as well. And its been the same people whining about the same thing "ITS NOT EXACTLY FROM THE BOOK OH **** ITS LIKE THE WORST MOVIE EVER!!!!11!" so if you were a real Harry Potter fan just deal with it and love the movies no matter what....and sit outside the theater from 8 am on Thursday to 12:01 on Friday when they showed it like I did.
