And I can't wait until the 5th movie. I happen to declare myself the authority on everything Potter, as well.

What the hell?

I love Harry Potter very much (I'm rereading the 5th book at the moment) but I don't really care for the movies much at all. I can wait for the 5th movie, but I want the next book!

[yourresidentpsyc...]

Definately. I love the movies, though. I love everything Potter.

[Retrogressive]

No..............................




omgmalfoy!!!

[*mipadi*]

What the hell?

I've been writing software all day. I thought it'd inject a bit of flavor into the forum.

[xxkimmi8xx]

heheh. guilty. -->Lover of Harry Potter Anything<--

i want the next book to come out also!

[*Statues/Shadows*]

I've been writing software all day. I thought it'd inject a bit of flavor into the forum.

Ah. Was interesting.

[NoSex]

I never really saw what was so special, despite having read the first two books and seeing their respective adaptations. Kinda lame.

[*disco infiltrator*]

^ Those are the worst ones!

HP rocks. Yeahhh.

[NoSex]

HP rocks. Yeahhh.

I prefer Poke'mon.

[Hannarr]

Harry Potter should be killed.

End of.

[*disco infiltrator*]

Nooo! Never!

[Hannarr]

Yes lol!

he should
he's soo irritating!

its just like..get some new glasses!

[*disco infiltrator*]

I like his glasses. Harry's very cute. I would be after him, were he real.

[Hannarr]

lol each is their own i guess!
personally
no thankyoooooooooou!

[*Zatanna*]

^ Those are the worst ones!

HP rocks. Yeahhh.

Oh definitely. I think the movie adaptions of the series really starts to bloom in Prisoner of Azkaban (of course, I'm biased as I adore Gary Oldman). I thought that they did a wonderful job with Goblet of Fire too. Although, I was a bit dissapointed that there wasn't further development with the Hermoine/Ron storyline. I mean, at the prom she spontaneously just blows up! At least, that's how it seemed to me. I also thought it was horribly out of character for Dumbledore to grab Harry Potter like he died (after his name came out of the GoF). Oh well, the actor that plays Dumbledore just isn't Richard Harris. :(

I'm super excited about the next film, although I anticipate having mixed emotions considering what happens at the end. :(

[yourresidentpsyc...]

i <3 everything potter.

'cept for siri's dramatically sad death. :(

ME TOO! The new Dumbledore is HORRIBLE! He acts all clever and mysterious and tricky, and like, that's not Dumbledore at all. Very bad adaptation of the wise and caring person that Dumbledore is supposed to be.

And, there wasn't really any hint to Ron/Hermione anywhere near the fourth book, so I thought it was odd that she seemed angry about it at all. I thought they shouldn't have done anything about it. She did randomly blow up though...

[*Zatanna*]

^ Oh see, I saw a lot of Ron/Hermoine hints in that book. The way he behaved after he found out she was going with Viktor, for example. I'd have to read it again, but I totally remember seeing hints. There was a really good interview I read a while back where Rowling pointed a lot of these little tid bits regarding Ron/Hermoine. I'll look for it when I get home and post it.

[*disco infiltrator*]

Oh, I know he was a little angry, but that could've been about anything - not necessarily him liking her. I think they took the hints a little too far in the movies. You're not supposed to know about that till it happens.

[*Zatanna*]

Perhaps, but in all honesty, the little shipper in me did a little happy dance. ;)

[*disco infiltrator*]

Pft! Harry & Hermy all the way...

[NoSex]

Pft! Harry & Hermy all the way...

*cough* Xander & Buffy. *cough*

BLASPHEMY!!!!

BLASPHEMY!!!!

Pffffffffffffft. Like a fox!
You don't even want to get me started on Giles & Buffy.
And, I'm sure Sammi could warn you about my "Favorite Parts of Buffy List."

[*disco infiltrator*]

Haha.

Giles, you need to have some fun...

Anyways, Ive never read, nor seen HP.

[*disco infiltrator*]

HERETIC!!!

[*Zatanna*]

Haha.

Giles, you need to have some fun...

Reminds me of this Spike quote to Giles:

"Oh, poor Watcher... has your life passed before your eyes - cup of tea, cup of tea, almost got shagged, cup of tea?"

/random, off topic

[voguelove]

i dont rea them. i just watch them. last movie sucked.

[yourresidentpsyc...]

You're crazy. The last movie kicked!

[xMayleex]

Well, I think the last book is out next summer. I can't wait, I've read them all like .. 15 times each .. yes Potter geek =\. I think we will see the fifth movie trailer near this Autumn .. I can't wait, only bad thing is what happens to Padfoot =(

[*disco infiltrator*]

Oh god, I'm gonna start crying when I buy the last book...

[x2xmhpm]

DUDES!!!>..i just LOVE HARRY POTTER!!!..everything about it!!!..and i'm soo excited about the 5th movie and 7th book coming out!!!

[*My Cinderella.*]

I the 5th book. I can't wait for the 5th movei to come out either.

[*Uronacid*]

me:


i am a huge fan of harry potter

[Gypsy Eyes]

I love the books, like the first two movies, hated the second two. They really have to get rid of that director. He is trashing the movies. He obviously has barely read the book, he keeps leaving out gigantic parts that are important in books to come.

[*Zatanna*]

Ok, well first off the last two films were directed by two different people:

Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban - Directed by Alfonso Cuarón

Writing credits (WGA)
J.K. Rowling (novel)
Steven Kloves (screenplay)

Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire - Directed by Mike Newell

Writing credits (WGA)
Steven Kloves (screenplay)
J.K. Rowling (novel)

I'd also like to point out that Rowling was very much a part of the filming process and both directors had her blessings.

[Gypsy Eyes]

yeah but the second director "modernized it". It came out horrible. He left out huge parts, like how he snuck out of azkaban, winky in general, and since when was everything burnt? They were just keeping muggles in the air. Since when does a werewolf look like gollum? Ugh I just hated that director.

[*disco infiltrator*]

^ I completely agree. All of my friends who didn't read the books think that the third one is the best, and I agree - in the movie only sense. But if you've read the book, it's absolutely terrible. I hate it so much. Not only did they leave out some of the most important things and tried to make all the students more Muggle-like, they changed things that there was no point in changing. It did nothing to fix the story or anything. Completely unnecessary. They keep making stuff about Ron & Hermy too, and there wasn't even any focus on that at all till the last book.

[Lovesucks06]

I'm a total HP geek I havent missed a movie and i have all the books, which i've read about 7 or 8 times each

And i find Daniel Radcliffe very smexy btw

[*Statues/Shadows*]

They keep making stuff about Ron & Hermy too, and there wasn't even any focus on that at all till the last book.

To be fair, I just reread them all, and in the 4th book, there was a fair amount of Ron being jealous and starting to realize he liked Hermione.

[*disco infiltrator*]

Not third, and it wasn't THAT emphasized in the fourth. There was hinting, not full-out telling everyone that they like eachother a lot.

In the third movie, they grabbed eachothers' hand! What is that!
I just think that yes, there is a fair amount in the books, but it's not the focus of things happening to the kids and in the movies, they focus on it way too much.

[Melissawilson5]

Harry Potter Is a great movie but I have only read the 1st Bokk

[*This Confession*]

i use to live it a lot
but i grew out of it.

a lot of people think my bf looks like harry potter though

[xCrys]

I lurveee harry potter. maybe its because I dont wanna grow up? Lol, Mikes moving here next summer && we have to get jobs and a place withen a month so.. movies are my escape. <33 harry potter, but not ... harry, i love ron :D

[*This Confession*]

^psh oh yea.
I always liked Ron more than harry

he just seems so much cuter and he spazzes out sometimes
hahaha he makes me laugh more.

[Rockwithme192]

If you don't like harry potter, don't post here bashing about it. The other forum I go to and have been there over two years does not allow bashing of a topic or of anything for that matter. Its just plain rude.


Anyway, yes I am a Harry Potter fan, Iv read all the books, and read book three twice xD!
I loved the last movie, it was my favorite because it was the one that followed the book the most and also showed that Harry, Ron, and Hermione are growing up. I didn't really like the 5th book =/, it was mainly a blank filling book. My favorite book is book 6 because, it was just great!

Mm, I thought you were just talking about the fourth. It's been quite a while since I watched the third movie, but honestly, it does make sense that it should be emphasized in the fourth movie. I mean, we wouldn't, but still, considering the main audience for the movies, I can understand they feel the need to push it to keep people's interest. (I'd think the fact that they're Harry Potter alone would do that, but nevermind logic.)

[*Zatanna*]

Hmm.. I swear (granted it's been years since I read Year 3) that there were hints of Ron/Hermoine in Azkaban. The whole hand holding thing was definitely on set scripted though. And there was another little bit with them at the end of the second film. She hugs Harry but her and Ron have this *akward* moment and do not hug.

Of course, I say this knowing full well that I'm an avid Ron/Hermoine shipper and sometimes shippers have a way of *seeing* things that might not be there.

[*Statues/Shadows*]

There were hints in Azkaban, but even a lot fewer than in the 4th

[Rockwithme192]

To the Ron/Hermion shipping thing, JK Rowling has said it herself in an interview to the runner of the leaky cauldron, and there is even a video on Youtube showing all the inuendos to the relationship from the book xD!:
