I hope you're right. I'd love to be proved wrong because I enjoy films so much.
I guess once more films are designed for 3D, rather than 3D being tacked on at the last minute to sell tickets get released then I might change my mind.

Not true. The difference was that Avatar was filmed using revolutionary 3D cameras to create an unbelievably good 3D effect. No other film at the moment professing to be 3D does that - they all just tack on the 3D in post-processing because it's the done thing. I suspect most of them weren't meant to be 3D at all, except that they suddenly feel they have to be or no one will watch them.
Give it another year or two and then the 3D films will be using the Avatar technology (and in doing so make JC a very, very wealthy man) and then we'll start to see 3D on the Avatar scale; ie, good.
Ok, so i've put off watching Harry Potter ever since the 1st Film came out, thinking it would be bollocks and absolute childish toss. Then came last Christmas and the bastards at ITV decided to play all of them, (1 a week). I managed to watch about 3 of them?
I'll hold my hands up and say they're actually pretty fecking good. The kids weren't as annoying as I thought they'd be and the storylines are generally very solid. I was pleasantly surprised. Although I haven't seen the recent one? Half Prince of Blood?

Unless I'm mistake, in most cases, you don't have to actually watch any of these films in 3D, if you don't wish to. I'm pretty sure it's only usually in selected viewings that this is implemented. So I don't actually see any issue here personally, as it's just there for those that want it, as some apparently do.
I think you ll enjoy the fourth and the fifth movie but the sixth wasn't exactly great. And yes the sixth was called Half Blood Prince.
Im glad they are making it in two parts, as previous films have missed out a lot, and considering this is the last book, it would be nice to include in more detail.
They said they removed the fight scene at the end to make the finale of film 7 seem more dramatic.
The reason Film 6 is poor to me is that they miss a huge part of the book out - Voldemorts history. It's crucial to film 7 and it's missing
Maybe it will shown in the first part of "film 7"....
Last 3 books were shit. Penultimate one sticks out as being particularly bad. The final one was pretty grim too.
I won't be watching the film in the cinema.

I still wish Harry and Hermoine were a pair instead of Harry and Ginny.
Movies have been shit from the 3rd onwards since they decided to completely change the fecking set 
and a good majority of the books contents out. Atleast 1 and 2 kept it somewhat similar.

I think its hard to include every detail as the books grow bigger. The first three were pretty small (around 300-350 pages), so I guess it was easier to convert the first books into movies. From book 4 onwards, the books were really long (550+ pages).
Well my copy has 607
numbers aside, I cannot wait for the new film(s), will be interesting to see what they split into the second film - from the trailer there's bits i'm not sure on. We'll see i guess!
I haven't read the books so no spoilers please!!!
I finished watching Half Blood Prince last night (after watching the boxset last week). It's setup alot for the last film for sure, a little frustrated they haven't pushed the plot along a little bit. The death at the end was also oddly done and considering Harry is meant to be a great magician, he certainly does get his arse kicked regually.

You should get your money back mate~ it should have 759.
After a little google search I found that the US version indeed has 759 pages and the UK version has 607.
So I guess we're both right.
The last book was utter wank anyway.
Great students regularly get schooled by experienced workers in the same field, it's no different really, just that they are fighting rather than replacing a broken pipe.

Just like at school,the English manage to fit in what needs to be fitted in a substantially shorter time.
I like how there were people who were genuinely devastated and pissed off when they didn't turn out to be. The signs were there for a 7 year old to see. I think some people actually stopped reading the series because of it, which is kind of obnoxious.
I have to admit I'm a bit of a HP nerd, so I'm eagerly anticipating the last 2 movies even though I know they won't even come close to living up to expectations.
I like how in the films Ginny is slowly turning into a spit of Harrys mother. Was that intentional? As for the Ginny/Harry thing making sense, I've not read the books, but it was fairly obvious from Film2 that Ginny had a crush on Harry. Just a little surprising the feelings were shared.
Don't sit around at night worrying about it though will you?
No I m not worrying about it. I can't really do anything about it now can I?
Emma Watson announces the 100 days countdown to part 1.
Fixed for you. Why did she have to cut her hair...
Extremely excited for this one. Always been a fan of the books and the last one is probably my favourite of them all. Generally, I find the movies quite shit but I just watch them anyways to see how they adapted the text onto film.
my cock is out for this film
think im gonna start reading the book again later

Pretty much nothing happens in the first half of this book.
God knows how they've managed to turn that into a film in it's own right unless as has been suggested they fill it with stuff they missed out from the HBP.

Can't wait
The trailer looks awesome.

There will be only one reason ever why I would watch this movie.
Rupert Grint?
Christ knows how people look at that video and still believe she's fit..
Have to admit I still think HP's great, books were brilliant and I've such a crap memory that whenever I'm watching the films it just brings it all back so I still really enjoy them.

Shes looks bad with her hair short
Why is there an advert for physic readings in the banner above this?
Trouble with the films is that they cut away pretty much all sideplot. I know it has to be done to keep it to a reasonable length, but still, loses a lot. And they can't fecking act.

I used to think she was seriously hot. Now I just see Judi Dench when I look at her

amazing how much difference hair makes. I still think she's lovely though.I used to think she was seriously hot. Now I just see Judi Dench when I look at her
You see Judi Dench but I see Ellen Degeneres.
either way, it's a travesty.
I'd still let her slide down my fireman's pole.
had it installed yesterday
