I thought it was good.
I though Goblet didn't feel like a film. I thought it felt like a bunch of scenes plastered together to form a vague outline of the book.
Order on the other hand I thought was a big improvement on this. And the score was well cooler than any of the previous films.

Hey,uhhh,buddy...that post was two years ago. Maybe they'd prefer it in French? Quit being a rednecked jackass.

Hmmm I like the series, I read the first four books when they were just published and I was younger, but once the 5th was out and I noticed how horrible and boring it is, how Rowling had taken all of Harry's good traits and ruined them, I stopped reading and made a promise not read them again, I know the ending of the 7th and I'll only watch the movies from now on, the fifth book was rubbish, the movie, bad at the start, get's better near the end.

I might pop in once in a while but not too much, so I guess I'd like to join. What do you say? Also, I got chosen to Ravenclaw on the sorting hat site, I suppose they are good. I always considered myself as part dark part...not so dark so none of the major houses would suit me.

Just persevere through the first six books, and when you read the seventh, you'll be blown away. That was my favorite HP book ever, and it was an amazing read. It might even compare to some of Frank Herbert's works, just more juvenile.

I always thought of myself as Gryffindor, but I guess I'm too smart for them, and ended up in Ravenclaw too.

Hey guys I have read some of the harry potter books and they peeked my interest. Question in the order of the Phoenix is there a scene where Lovegood and ginny wesley are kidnapped or caught or some shit. However Im kinda doing an anaylsys of the characters and I need to know what specifically happens in this scene. Could someone post a paragraph or something?

Bump.

I just saw the sixth film, I was a little disappointed by it, to be honest. I really liked the fifth film, so I was pretty happy to hear it was being directed by the same guy, David Yates. But I don't know, I felt like too much focus was placed on the love subplots. Then they just jumped right in to the cave scene and didn't even spend enough time talking about the Horcruxes. They did a good job establishing that Malfoy and the Death Eaters were up to something, but the love parts just drew the attention away from it. And they just didn't spend enough time talking about the Half-Blood Prince, so when Snape says it's him at the end, you just find it hard to care.

I was also kinda disappointed with Dumbledore's death, which I was anticipating. I hate how they did that slow-mo shot of him falling, it was pretty unnecessary. I felt they could've come up with something more dignified, but the wand-light thing at the end made up for it, I think. The battle scene at Hogwarts was really watered down too. Bleh. I can understand why they left out Dumbledore's funeral though.

Overall, I felt it was good for what it was, but it could've been so, so much better.
