I can see our taste is very different :-)
I found Columbus to prove himself a director that can’t cope with child actors… It was too obvious he was the guy that did ‘Home Alone’... He didn’t get their full potential out of the actors.
But of course you can like him, and I can like Yates :-)
How lucky we all are, to have our own personal opinions! How boring it would be otherwise…
I just want to add to all the comments.
I love 2 movies….I’ll stretch out the glory of new fandom news for as long as we can get it. Also….we have to have something to rave/rant about until the scottish book comes along.
Thanks WB :)
@Emmy part 2
Sorry for the double post as well…
I know. I’m not too sure. I would hope so. To do that I think they might have to wait until the second part of the movie to kill Dobby off then. And even then? I’m not sure…he’s not in it that much in the book except then I believe. But you never know with how they present it. I know my mom would be disappointed if they don’t have Dobby.
Don’t worry folks. If they can make people look like Vulcans, they can make twenty-somethings look thirty-something. No biggie.
@Emmy.
I love it when people display their opinions, in a tasteful manner at least. I hate it when people are so easily to dismiss something.
I agree we both have different opinions! It’s quite wonderful actually to have an intelligent argument(if you could even call this one it’s so civil). It’s been awhile.
This is goin to be so cool. There actually going to try to put everything in. Personally I think that they need a new screenwritter. The fifth movie was really bad. It didn’t have a plot. I felt like they really rushed through it. I want the seventh movie to be great becasue its the ending and it wraps everything up. Its still very exciting.
Okay, I’m glad that they’re going to do the last book justice by splitting it into 2 films, but it already seems like, judging by the fifth movie, that they’re cutting important material essential to the plot of Deathly Hallows. Also, it looks like that there isn’t going to be any scenes with Fleur and Bill in HBP, since the previous actress hasn’t been contacted yet, and that would completely alter the plot of the following movies. Unless they make up for these plot holes in the movies by sticking them in somewhere else, I’m a little worried.
@ Ryder
Ahh, being civil is my second nature! (ahem)
Goodnite to all you fans: don’t feel too sad about them six months… They will fly past! (or so I hope…)
I am so excited i just Squeeeeeeeedddd! i’ve never done that befor
Not that this thread needs any more comments, but. . .
Anyone else a bit surprised that Part I will come out in NOVEMBER but Part II won’t come out til MAY? ? ? ! ! !
That seems like stretching it a bit too much. I mean, I know you have to allow everyone a chance to see Part 1 first, but, still. MAY seems a bit extreme.
I’m putting my money on them splitting it at the end of the Malfoy scene with Dobby. Start the 2nd at Shell Cottage.
Wow, it looks like I just repeated what you said Maria with my post, but I didn’t see it until after I posted mine. Glad someone else agrees with me about the fifth movie though.
Yeah! I’m really glad they’re going with 2 parts so they can really do the last book justice. I’m sure Yates will do a good job, although I’ll have to wait and see HBP, since it’s very closely connected to DH. I do wish, however, that the movies were coming out a little closer together and a little sooner than 2010. That’s going to be 2 years between HBP and DH, plus 6 months in between each part! I suppose they need more time to film and do all the effects (there are a lot for the last book), but that’s going to be a long wait for movie goers, especially with no more books coming.
@Emmy
No. I disagree. I think Columbus was the best. Though he did the shortest books, they were by far the best.
I have no problem with the shortness of OOTP, I have a problem with how everything is so centered on Harry and not on any of his relationships. About the only one is with Cho, and sure it was fine, but not that good. My judgement on the movie could be really poor though, because the last time I saw it was in theatres. But I believe I remember it clear enough to know it was by far my least favorite. POA comes next. The firebolt AT THE END OF THE MOVIE?
