    I always thought all the films were great. They're never going to be as in depth as the books, so I never expect them to be.


    there was a picture here

    The thing about the films is that if you've read the book, you'll try and compare the two. All I could think about after OotP was everything they left out ;_;

    Great. Another <img src="http://forums.eyesonff.com/images/smilies/rpg_009.gif" alt="skull" /><img src="http://forums.eyesonff.com/images/smilies/rpg_009.gif" alt="skull" /><img src="http://forums.eyesonff.com/images/smilies/rpg_009.gif" alt="skull" /><img src="http://forums.eyesonff.com/images/smilies/rpg_009.gif" alt="skull" />ty Harry Potter movie with horrendous acting that I'm going to watch because...well, it's Harry Potter. xD

    I've bought every HP DVD so far. Because they're good? No, they suck. It just feels weird if I don't have them haha. I read the first three books before most people had even heard of the first one. HP is my baby.

    Buying a DVD of a film you think is crap sounds pretty perverse to me.

    Hopefully about as kid friendly as the sixth book.

    The movies have disappointed me. They've always disappointed me, but it was the fifth that disappointed me the most. Perhaps it will be better now that the last book has been released (then again, they likely wrote the script for the sixth movie before that).

    The fifth movie proved that the people writing the movies aren't paying an awful lot of attention. I'm not so picky that movies have to be perfect counterparts to the novels, but they really dropped the ball with The Order of the Phoenix.
    I agree after being dissapointed four times in a row, I don't think I'll be going to see this one unless, I hear from other hp fans that it's loyal to the story, which I doubt. The trailer did look good, I first saw it on the news, but that doesn't really mean anything to me as I've thought the last one looked good to and look what the result was.

    I think the films have been getting better and better but that's not really saying much. The first two films were cringeworthy. The 3rd one was probably the best one.

    Not sure how I feel about David Yates directing this movie AND the films for the last book. I don't think he did that superb of a job with the 5th film that they would want to stick with him for the remaining films. I like how they mixed it up with the directors, and I wish they would have kept doing that.

    Trailer was very good for being just a teaser. Young Riddle seems like a better actor than any of the Potter Trio when they were that age.

    I gotta say when I heard the british kid saying "Youre the doctor arent you" I had a giggle. I'd probably go to see it just so i can make a doctor who reference to my friend while were watching it.

    To all those people knocking the movies...I've said it before and I'll say it another million times; film is a different medium than literature, and as such things will be different.... The basic underlying plot is the same, so watch it as a movie, not a live-action book.

    If you simply don't like them as movies aside from that, that's fine, just say so.

    I like the books and I like the movies, this one will probably not disappoint me, as none of the previous have.

    I agree that some people dislike the HP films because "THEY'RE SO NOT LIKE THE BOOKS", and that those people are idiots. However, I dislike the movies because they're crap, and only have a bit of liking for them because they're a bit like the books. xD
