Re: Harry Potter 5

I didn't think it was that bad. Not my favorite Harry potter movie, but I still liked it a great deal.

Re: Harry Potter 5

I agree that it wasn't that bad.

It was different from the other ones, but not necessarily worse.

Re: Harry Potter 5

Re: Harry Potter 5

yes, out of all the HP movies, #5 was horrible and boring.

I saw it today.. the best part was the battle with Dumbledore and Voldemort.

Re: Harry Potter 5

it wasnt the best movie from the series, but it wasnt terrible either. They left out a few vital things, they could have put in quidditch, especially since this is the last ook including any quidditch:\. Overall it wasnt that bad, could have been better. The style was unique compared to the other 4 movies.

Re: Harry Potter 5

Give me the budget they're working with, the 5th book and the cast and I think I could make it better. (And under 3 hours)

Re: Harry Potter 5

I think if the book and the movie were exactly identical, then it would take away from each one's uniqueness factor. Not to mention the fact that the movie would be at least twice as long.

I thought the movie was pretty good overall. They really focused on the DA, and although it felt kinda choppy at times, it wasn't as choppy as Goblet. I might see it again, but in IMAX this time.

Re: Harry Potter 5

Guys. Although I understand most things. Some things in the book were too corny for Hollywood.

You have to realize, while the later books in the series are meant as much for teens than little kids, they do still have the same corny quirkiness that the Harry Potter series is known for. As a kid, its fine, because the earlier books were a bit geared towards them and you let it slide in the later books because you read the series when you were younger, some of the things, like the sorting song, and how rediculous Luna Lovegood is (Including the magazine her father writes), are really corny... Not too corny for me, but too corny for Hollywood.

I love the books and wouldnt change them a bit, but I will admit that if I was the director, you have to make sacrifices to appeal to the people who havent read the books, thus arent used to how they are.

If you think about it. A lot of things they cut out were the corny moments in the book. Lets call it "Too fantasy."

Correct me if I am wrong, but wasnt Quiditch banned at Hogwarts in the 5th book anyways? Maybe the person who added that just never read the books.

Anyways. Ill watch it. If you seperate the fact that they leave out things from the movie, im sure its great.

Only for Harry and the Weasley twins.

Re: Harry Potter 5

No mirrors... they didn't show the two way mirrors.

J.K. even said they were gonna be important in the 7th book, so I'd like to see how Hollywood fixes that mistake if they really are a big deal in the last book/movie

Re: Harry Potter 5

HP5 the last book with Quidditch?

Someone didn't read Book 6, where Quidditch probably makes a stronger appearance than in any other book besides MAYBE 3...rofl.

I'll see this because I love HP, but I'll probably be disappointed with some of the stuff they leave out. BTW, no Quidditch is the same thing as no Weasley song, since they're directly related--come on guys.

I really disliked some of the things they didn't put in in HP4, such as the whole Ludo Bagman character, but it didn't kill the movie for me, just lowered the quality.

Re: Harry Potter 5

I enjoyed it. I wouldn't call it a disappointment, it was a good movie.

Yeah, it could've been a bit longer to fit more important things from the book in, but I still enjoyed it. I didn't remember much from the book before seeing it, but as I watched it I remembered certain things.

Oh and about Harry not being angry. Did you not see the scene where he tells Sirius that he thinks he's becoming bad because he's always angry?

Re: Harry Potter 5

It was good for a 2-hour movie. The only things I didn't like is how there was no Quidditch, and no explanation on how the prophecy could've been about Longbottom and not Harry. But I think it was good for making a 2-hour movie based on a 500 page book.
