Alright, now I'll admit that the movie was actually pretty cool... if you had never read the books. I just don't understand how they could leave so much out!! I know they have to have some time constraint, but I would have gladly stayed in that theater an extra hour for some explanations... or a little bit of elaboration!! Does anybody else agree? :mmm
I would have gladly stayed an extra hour or more but, we are probably in the minority. I think the general movie going public probably has a limit of 2.5 hours even less when you consider the amount of kids who watch the HP movies. I was very happy with the movie though.
I would stay in a movie theater all day watching a movie if it was good. :nod It'd undoubtedly cost more but who'd complain about a long and wonderful movie? :lol
How important were the parts left out? They were still able to tell the story without them. Movies are usually better when they're tighter like that, without pointless scenes. I haven't seen this new Harry Potter movie yet but I'm hearing it's an improvement over the first two. Those felt like someone was reading the book out loud with special effects.
I liked the movie. I went into the theater knowing that the movie could not compare to the books. I did think they could have explained about Moony, Wormtail, Padfoot, and Prongs a bit, and they should have had Remus telling Harry that the stag was symbolizing his father, but all in all I liked the movie. I have already seen it a couple of times and will probably see it again. :lol
:nod The explanation behind why the three friends of Remus became animagi was very important and was left out.Quote:
