  1. If Alfonso Cauron doesn't win best director at this year's Academy Awards, it would be outrageous.  He is easily one of the best directors of our generation...up there with Del Toro, Nolan, Aronfsky and Cameron. 

     

    I saw this fillm last night and I am still in awe.  With out a doubt, the most significant film to be released within this new millennium.  

     

    A+

    It's been about half a decade since I've read the books, but from how I remember them.....

     

    1. DH

    2. HBP

    3. GOF

    4. POA

    5. OOTP

    6. SS

    7. COS

  3. Well GoF and HBP are interesting comparisons. GoF sacrificed a lot of character moments for action, and HBP sacrificed a lot of action for character moments. So it all comes down to what you prefer.  

     

    HBP is one of the most visually stunning films I've ever seen.  The cinematography is still my favorite aspect of the film.  It's just so beautiful to look at.  I feel like this could have been the perfect film in the series if they added a few more memory scenes and deleted out the attack on the burrow, which is a HUGE blemish on the film.  And I agree with Noctis, the scene with the birds was very emotional..  It gave me a lump in the throat the first time I watched it - first time for a HP film!  This film is also the most timeless entry in the series, along with DH1, SS and PoA.  Those are the 4 movies that i think are going to hold up the best in the next ten years. CoS, GoF, and OOTP will be forgotten. 

     

    I watched GoF not that long ago, and it wasn't nearly as good as I remembered it.  Its lost its charm and wit, that I enjoyed so much on my first few viewings. One scene I really enjoyed though was Moody's DADA class where he teaches the students about the unforgiveable curses, and Neville walks out obviously devastated. That scene was stellar.

     

    HBP: 8/10

    GOF: 6/10
