Harry Potter: Official Topic

[Chula]

Harry 6 is very bad. The movie is too long and there is no climax!

[Frida]

Too long? any fan of the books cannot possible want or expect them to be shorter?! they barely got enough of the content in there as it is

[ladylindsey]

I loooooooouurved it! Over too soon for me! These are the parts I really liked:

 

 

SPOILER! --Click here to view-- | --Cliquez ici pour voir--

the Hermoine mini-drunk thing was a bit odd to me, too. But I did notice she was the only one that chugged her Butter Beer. I love Luna and her house spirit haha.

Alan Rickman just makes me swoon. whew. He is too incredibly amazing. Love his timing and facial expressions. Love the bit with him and Harry at the end. he is amazing, I hope he gets nominated when all of these movies are over

May I just say, Dumbledore is the man.

The 2 young Tom Riddles were sooooooooo good! I agree the little one was a very cute kind of disturbing.

I am hoping they begin the next movie with the funeral and McGonagall taking charge. I didn't like how they portrayed her at the end, not as strong as I envisioned her to be and stepping up. I'm thinking the next movie will start with the funeral since there are important details involved with that, and we never saw any of the students leaving the school.

Helena Bonham Carter is one of my favorite actresses ever since I saw her in the Merlin mini series(I think thats the first place I saw her). I love how deliciously evil she is. She is perfect!

They just said Celine on tv in a movie....sorry..got distracted.

Ron's Love potion scenes rofl.

Harry and his luck potion OMG that was so funny. "Potter, you can't just go wandering around unsupervised...." "Well, then come Ooooooooon, Professor!" or something to that effect. hahahahaha

I loved the casting of Slughorn. I agree, I always pictured Narcissa as a female Draco or his father, icy blonde hair, pale, cold, skinny. But I think she did well.

 

I had my Harry Potter wand that when you press a button on the side lights up on the tip, sooooo glad I did for at the end when McGonagall rasied hers to the sky, psssh so did I hahaha. It was awesome. Everyone laughed at me lol.

 

I loved it, it felt long because it was in a theater that was packed and my legs were asleep, but as soon as I got up walking around afterwards I felt like it was over too soon Going back to see it in Imax 3D in about 2 weeks when it comes out! Woooo!

[ladylindsey]

There's a very big oceany, cavern with lake full of dead things, poison swallowing, fireball engulfing, wand wielding, astronomy tower Dumblydore climax..... lol....You must be in Slytherin Edited July 18, 2009 at 06:33 PM by ladylindsey

I completely agree with you lindsey!

too cute, GO LINDSEY!

[SensationalCeline]

I'm going to see this movie on Friday with a friend and I cannot wait. Everything sounds amazing. I'm trying to get my sister to read the book. My mom and I are the only one's who have read all 7!

[Frida]

going again tomorrow (with a friend two hours away.. 4 hours on the road, ugh)

[SensationalCeline]

Some of you are going to see it twice and I haven't even seen it once!!!!!

[Belle Céline]

Yes, Harry takes Luna to the party!

 

 

And I think Helen did an okay job as Narcissa. Not like I imagined her, but it wasn't bad either. Not as memorable of a performance at the young Tom Riddle, but okay. Helena and Alan lifts her up a bit.

 

And no, no funeral.. it's a pity, but perhaps we get flashbacks in the next movie. I still like the ending though, it's quiet but nice..

I think Joely Richardson would have been much much better as Narcissa! Helen looked to old, I did not like her as Cissy. I think the way Cissy is described in the book that Joely fits her to a T, she is tall, skinny, blonde and beautiful. I freakin LOVED Helena as Bellatrix! I wore a shirt with Bella on it to the movie! I was sooo dissapointed that they didn't do the funeral its one of the most memorable parts of the book!! I hope the next movie starts off with a flashback to or the funeral itself.

Joely is known more in the US for doing the tv show Nip/Tuck here is a list of her movies and things she's done . I've saw quiet a few of them. The more recent she's done that you may have heard of are The Last Mimzy, Fatal Contact:Bird Flu in America, and Fallen Angel.

[I Surrender]

saw the halfblood prince last nite and was slightly disappointed, wasnt very exciting, real shame. special effects

were phenomonal though.

[Soloni]

I saw The half-blood prince on the 17th... and im going to watch it again !!!! I really hate the "New" scene though ... They should not change the story that way...

[Frida]

saw it again yesterday.. not a very good idea, laughed way before the actual funny moment/joke came.. giggling in a silent theater = oops

 

loved it just as much the second time and AAARGHH, the acting is o much better!!!

[ladylindsey]

8 more days til IMAX 3D yaaaaaaay goofy glasses!

[remykyes]

I LOVE HP! I got dressed up to see HBP opening night! I started BAWLING at the part when McGonagall and Pomfrey and the whole student body raised their wands. I got my cell phone to light up and I raised it up and EVERYONE IN THE THEATER DID IT! OMG!

[Belle Céline]

I'm going to see HBP again tomorrow afternoon, can't wait

[Bellamy]

I watched it tonight. I don't like it, too long and boring to me. The only scene I like is the scene something suddenly grabbed Harry's feet. It's quite surprising.

 

BTW, I'm not a fan. I've never read the book, and I've only watched 3 or 4 Harry Potter movies. I think the story line is quite boring and confusing to non-fans.

[Frida]

People who doesn't read the books should probably not see the movies since they leave so much out/change so many things.. it's more of a treat to the fanbase I think..

[celine4evauk]

I watched it 2 days ago. Loved it - think i'm gonna have to read the last book again now for the fourth time I thought the ending was nice. Special effects were brilliant, and loved the "Ron under the love potion" was hilarious. And Harry after his "luck" boost!! Daniel Radcliffe is gorgeous - as i'm twice his age i shouldn't really be saying things like that should i??

Can't wait for Part One next year.

[ennostiel]

I'm going to see HBP on Wednesday. I really can't wait!

[SensationalCeline]

Saw it yesterday and I loved it. I cried on the part where the Weasley's house got burnt down and when the whole student body and the teachers raised their wands for Dumbledore. That was so sad...but I was dissapointed that they didn't kill Dumbledore outside the castle like it was in the book and they didn't show the funeral. That would have been amazing. Helena as Bellatrix = LOVE! I saw a little girl that came to see the movie and she was dressed up as Hermione. I had a Slytherin tie, even though I like Gryfindor (not sure that's spelled right) but I totally forgot about it and didn't wear it. I thought Malfoy was amazing in this movie. I can't wait to get it on dvd. Bellatrix is my "bad" favorite and I think Hermione is my good favorite although I like Malfoy too. And, when that thing grabbed Harry when he was trying to get water for Dumbledore, I jumped even though I knew it was coming. Hehe. Overall, I loved it and can't wait for the next two. I've got all the books and all the movies so far so I can't wait to get this as well.

[alvaap24]

I know! it was sooo disappointing they didn't show the Dumbledore funeral, that was so important,

and I would've liked to see a little bit more Harry-Ginny, but overall I loved the movie!, it was very funny

at some parts, and the special effects were awesome

Can't wait for the DVD to come out

[Claudette]

Saw HBP last week. Yeah, I'm also a bit dissapointed. They left to much detail out...

[destin139]

I've gone through phases but I really like the books - the films are a bit hit and miss, jsut seen the 6th one and its ok, didnt set the world alight but hopefully the 7th will be amazing! I'm glad they're splitting it into two parts because otherwise there is no way they would be able to keep to the whole content of the book and everything is so important!

 

Am just waiting on my copies of 5,6,7 books to come from Amazon - have never bought them before and waited til now they are cheap lol

[No1IrishFan]

I met J.K Rowling at the airport today, she was so nice and kindly gave me an autograph

[RLAAMJR.]

I like harry potter but not really a hard fan. My favorite film was the last one "harry potter and the half-blood prince" cos it's darker , more mature and harder to understand. hehehe.",) but i'm serious.

[Edwin]

Part 1 of DH this week! While I'm not doing a midnight screening I will definitely see it on FRIDAY! Who else is seeing it this weekend?

[samart]

I'm also seeing it on Friday! I'm missing a day at university to do that.
