Harry Potter!

[*Jen*]

I can't wait to see the new film when it comes out on friday Who else is looking forward to it???

[Magical Forest.]

YES YES YES!
I'm soooo excited

[Ceilidh]

-raises hand- I can't wait <333 I can't help but wonder at what point they will end part one I suppose the middle of the book is where

Spoiler:

Ron leaves Harry and Hermione

so that could be where. I hope they'll make

Spoiler:

Dobbie's funeral better than they made Dumbledore's in Half-Blood Prince ¬____¬

[Pelios]

I thought it came out mid-night Wednesday...

[Ceilidh]

19th November for us I believe

[Choclacation]

I'm seeing it on Thursday yay. The seventh book was my favorite so it will be interesting to see what they make of it, so far I think it looks really good and definitely entertaining.

[Lu82]

i cant wait!!!! even though the 5th and 6th movies were really bad i just hope David Yates reads this book!

[Anduriel]

Turning Harry Potter into a franchise has killed it (like most good things). I haven't even seen the fifth and sixth, so I'm not seeing the seventh.

[kokorocks]

I am seeing it for the midnight showing with two friends. (Thursday at midnight)
And then I'm seeing it another time with my other friend. Then again with my parents, and then possibly again with my sister and her boyfriend. That's a lot of Harry Potter. Haha.

[ARTPOP]

^^ Yeppers , probably wait till it's on DVD though!

[MegaMadness]

Am I the only person who dosen;t care at all?

[Snufkin]

The Ministry has fallen. Scrimgeour is dead. They are coming.

Oh hell yes.

[Felorena.]

I AM THERE IN THREE HOURSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS

[The ANTI-Troll]

i just back from seeing it... i thought it was better then the last 2... then again the 2 girls kissing in the seats across from me took up alot of my attention...

[Silhouette]

I'm excited too! Some of my friends saw the midnight premier last night. I'm so jealous! I am a pretty big harry potter nerd haha. I own all of the movies and books and they are all in my room

[Detective Olivia Benson]

I've heard good reviews for it so far; that's a first. The last two Harry Potter movies have not met my expectations. The seventh book was my favorite as well. I had to have the books the day the came out, but with the movies I'm a little bit more 'less crazy.' I like to wait until the lines die down, so I don't get disappointed when I get to the theater and they're all sold out. (It's happened before.) I'll hopefully see it before I go back to campus on the twenty-seventh. :-)

That's why you pre-order the tickets. Tho when I got there, it was almost an hour and a half before the movie started, and we had to sit in those front grouping of seats. It was fine. Yes, the movie was very good. Better than the last two.

[Detective Olivia Benson]

Well, you can't pre-order online for Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows yet (at least in my area), and I hate to pre-order unless I know for sure I'll be going. The way my life works, we plan on going, then we don't. Sure, we could drive out to the theater and buy them hours in advance, but that's gas money.

Oh really? But on your thing it says you live in the U.S.?
I ordered a week in advance.
And yes, I can see your reasoning there.

[cptdean]

i definately got bored during the film.
better than the other films, but thats because its a better book than the rest too. the actors and actresses simply cant act at all.. and they dont say much either when you expect them to
Dobby is the best bit of the film. Few funny bits but thats it.
Being in 2 parts as well..

[Ceilidh]

Ah, Idk I think they are quite good actors. The only time I ever cringed from a part of the film was on Prisoner of Azkaban where Harry screamed out "HE WAS THEIR FRIEND!"

[Felorena.]

I just saw it last night. LOVED IT.

[losing touch.]

hmm, i'm not the biggest harry potter fan (not read the books) but i do like the films. i'm not rushing to the cinema to see the new film but i probably will go and see it at some point. all my friends who have seen it seemed to have loved it though. i'm watching the philosopher's stone (love that film..) atm!

[Alexx]

I saw it yesterday & thought it was good.
I'm just happy was better than the last film they made, they really messed that up

I don't think you can't really compare it to the other films as it's very different in location and everything. But it kept to the book well and didn't miss out much, which I thought it would have. The acting has improved since the past films. There was one bit which made me cringe no end and I could have left there and then (I won't say in case of spoilers) but overall, I thought it was a good attempt xD The books will always be the best, though. ♥

[LlamaLlamaDuck]

Mum promised to take me to the IMAX to see it, so I've been hinting all week. Eventually just flat out asked her this morning to take me and she said yes, just not in the first like, week of it coming out because it'll be so busy.

[Pelios]

My friends started crying when

Spoiler:

the white bird died

I feel asleep when

Spoiler:

Harry and his two friends where running away from the evil which was all the movie

in the middle but woke up for the intersting ending... it was a slow/ long movie.

[Quartet]

I am seeing it todaaaaaaaay!

So excited!!!!

[Snufkin]

I totally disagree that it was long or boring. Considering how much of the book is spent travelling and camping, a lot of those scenes were shortened, quite rightly. I loved the movie, thought it was brilliant, paced really well, the right dose of funny and sad...can't wait for Part 2. I'll be so upset when it's all over.

[Berries and Cream]

Yes, I can't wait to see it! I'm so excited I've seen the movies and read the books and I LOVED them, so why wouldn't I be looking forward to it?

I'll think this comment is for me since I'm the only one that has said the movie was long and SLOW not boring. It starts looking interesting but it ends up spending the whole movie in the tent doing nothing all action and humor stopped. The only thing that saved the movie in my opinion was the humor in it, I guess I was just expecting a little more.

[Lu82]

Saw it and again disappoint me, i think it was as worse as the 6th and 5th movies, i hate how David yates changes everything how he rushes to finish the movies. HE NEEDS TO READ THE BOOKS!!The lack of emotions drives me nuts.

[Syzygy.]

I saw it last night, and...

I was impressed.

This coming from someone who usually dislikes movie adaptations of books, but I thought it was really well done. Different to the book, but it worked.
Despite what others are saying, I like the actors, I thought it was pretty close to the books, and I think it had just the right amount of everything.
So, yeah, I'm happy.

I am in the US, and we can't pre-order online in my city, I checked. :|

I think I'll see it next week when the kids are in school, or maybe Thanksgiving. Either way, it'll be here until after Christmas. So if I don't see it now, there's plenty of time. I'm never in a big rush to go to the movies. I own the book and can re-read it as many times as I want. =]

EDIT: So, I guess we can start pre-ordering starting Monday. I guess it was just for the first couple days online purchasing wasn't allowed. :/ Also, it costs an extra dollar to order online. Forget that.

Ooh okay. And yeah, sounds like a good plan.

[Fluorescent_adolescent]

I personally loved it.
The first time I saw it, I had a problem with the pacing. Everything just seemed so rushed. But then I saw it a second time, and it didn't seem that way anymore. Definitely my favorite Potter film to date.
I think it's completely idiotic to think that Yates can fit everything into a 2 1/2 hour movie. Sorry it can't be done no matter how much people want it to be. He put the important things in it and that's what matters, and the things he changed were rightfully changed.

The only thing I had a huge problem with was the Malfoy Manor scene:
:: SPOILERS AHEAD ::
Sorry I don't know how to do that spoiler tab thing.

Spoiler:

first off the torture seemed so toned down. I LOVED Emma Watson though. Her crying and screams felt so real, she was quite good, but I wish they would've shown Bellatrix using the Cruciatus Curse although it was implied. Carving "Mudblood" into her skin was a nice touch though. I hated how Ron and Harry weren't as hysterical as they should've been. And I hated how Dobby added unecessary moments of humor. Sorry, but Hermione's being freaking tortured here, it's not supposed to be funny or light hearted. I admit, the two times I saw it I laughed, but as I thought about it more and more, it was really stupid.

That's the only thing I had a BIG problem with. The good certainly outweighs the bad for me though. There were some things

Spoiler:

I really, really loved like the Three Brothers animation (Oh gawd, that was simply fantastic), Godric's Hollow and Bathilda Bagshot (So freaking creepy!), Ron leaving and the subtle hints that he was going to leave (Great acting from the trio), the Ministry scene, how they played the radio in the background while showing the trio going from place to place, Harry and Hermione dance scene, Dobby's death, and the destroying the locket scene was fantastic also.

Some things I wish they would've added but it didn't ruin the movie for me:

Spoiler:

-Regulus' backstory

Spoiler:

-the graffiti on the memorial sign at Godric's Hollow

And for those complaining about it being boring and the camping scenes boring. Um, did you read the book? And if you have, what did you expect exactly? I hate how people get ansy when there isn't explosions every five seconds and Transformers type action in it.

I LOVED IT SEEING IT AGAIN SOON

[Fluorescent_adolescent]

Haha thanks for that!
All you have to do is [spoiler ][ / spoiler ], then (without the spaces)?
Well that's easy enough

[Pizza Slut]

I've already seen the first 36 minutes, bad me
