spizzer Posted March 22, 2012 Posted March 22, 2012 (edited) I figured it would be nice to have a thread to just post thoughts, discuss whatever, have an active debate, etc.Might help keep other, unrelated threads from being derailed... Edited March 22, 2012 by spizzer
Totem Posted March 24, 2012 Posted March 24, 2012 Currently watching OOTP on TV and it is bringing back many memories, I miss Potter so much.
Totem Posted March 31, 2012 Posted March 31, 2012 HBP os on TV tonight, one of the most exciting openers for a film.

cozmeesah Posted May 12, 2012 Posted May 12, 2012 Watching DH1 on HBO Family right now (DH2 premieres Saturday night on HBO) and I just now realized that Catelyn Stark (aka Michelle Fairley) played Hermione's mother.I looked at her face and went "heyyyyy.... wait a minute *runs to imdb* "
Heretic Posted May 12, 2012 Posted May 12, 2012 By far the best opening scene for any potter movie. So so so emotional, and the music is brilliantly suited. DH1. <3 1
Heretic Posted May 12, 2012 Posted May 12, 2012 I want to do a Potter marathon. After these damn exams are over, I'll spend a day watching the entire series. I realised I haven't done that yet with the the 8 movies togethere.

Heretic Posted May 14, 2012 Posted May 14, 2012 Watching PS.It forgot how funny this film can actually be. Ron is just so stupid.''Sunshine, daisies, butter mellow, turn this stupid fat rat yellow!''
Heretic Posted May 16, 2012 Posted May 16, 2012 (edited) Just watched GOF. Severely underrated by some.Yes, it's a bit choppy at times, but I hardly even notice anymore. It's probably the most entertaining Potter movie; you just can't deny that, as well as being, quite possibly, the funniest. I'm always in stitches with Ron and his crazy antics. No wonder this movie is so popular with the mainstream... more so than a lot of the others.I also forgot how emotional it is when Harry brings Cedric back and the father is bellowing over his dead body. It's heart wrenching.Oh, and the score. Brilliant. Edited May 16, 2012 by Heretic

It's heart wrenching.Oh, and the score. Brilliant.It's VERY choppy at times. It's not that funny. Half-Blood Prince is by far and away the funniest Potter film. Score is wonderful, though. Cedric's father sobbing over his son is emotional, but can often be offset from Radcliffe's atrocious acting. "He's BHACK, Vholdemort's BHACK. UHUHHUUUU. I couldn't leaaaave him."His performances improved immensely after that film, thank God.
Heretic Posted May 16, 2012 Posted May 16, 2012 No no no. It's funnier than HBP. All the things with Ron and the Yule Ball. It's hilarious. Come on, Harry wasn't that bad during that scene, but honestly, I was paying more attention this his fathers cries. Upon this viewing, which is actually the first time I've seen it in quite a while, I thought Radcliffe played Potter really well.
Heretic Posted May 16, 2012 Posted May 16, 2012 (edited) One thing I really hate though is the fact is has so many loose ends, especially for those who don't read the books. Edited May 16, 2012 by Heretic
Noctis Posted May 16, 2012 Posted May 16, 2012 What a monstrosity that they didn't have Molly's scene with Harry in the Hospital Wing.
Heretic Posted May 16, 2012 Posted May 16, 2012 It did leave out a LOT from the book though. I wish they focused more on the characters, rather than the action. And why did they dwell so much on Cho/Harry's relationship? It wasn't even that major in the book...
Totem Posted May 17, 2012 Posted May 17, 2012 I have a soft spot for HBP, my personal favourite to watch if I had to choose between the 8 films but DH2 is probably the best film.
