oh yeah, forgot to mention - i could feel tears welling up (yes, shut up) when they're outside the whomping willow, and harry is smiling, telling them what kind of home he'd like to live in with sirius........... ;____; especially since we all know that he dies in book five
yeah same here! I saw it with a friend of mine who hasn't read any of the books and he had no idea why I was so emotional about it...lol

I saw it today and thought it was great. There were some really nice looking shots of the grounds, etc. The music was cool too.

They didn't change as much as I'd heard, which was good, though a couple of things annoyed me about the Dementors.
1. Their heads were a bit wrong.
2. They should have been bigger.
3. They shoudn't fly. They're supposed to glide along just above the ground.

saw it today...thougth it was quite quite good

yeh...dementors heads looked really funny

dumbledore...hmmm didnt mind him that much...the first one didnt impress me that much (sorry and bless his soul)

got some people with weird sense of humour in the same cinema...part where harry is really emotional after he heard that sirius betrayed his parents and told his friends "he was there friend" ...all shaken and stuff, this person at the back row started laughing quite loudly and for quite a while...hmmm

yeh! go hermoine for kicking dracos ass

I saw Harry Potter on Friday!!! :D

The warewolf annoyed me the most... WHAT THE HELL WAS THAT THING? Aren't werewolfs supposed to be like normal wolves? That thing in the movie was too long and fake and thing to be a real werewolf!

APart from that.. movie was good. :D I don't see what was so bad about Dumbledore.. he's a legend!

Another annoying thing... they changed the whole setting! The location of Hogwarts in the first 2 movies is different to this. And that's annoying because how a school change its location?

I watched it a second time, and liked it even more. The first time I saw it I thought it was a bit rushed, but it felt quite long after watching it two times, and I definately could appreciate it more.

at the end of the 5th book Dumbledore tells Harry that for the prophecy to be fulfilled either Harry or Neville will have to die to destroy Voldermort (Riddle) ...

Actually he said that Harry or Voldemort must die because they can't both exist.

yeah, the werewolf looked like something out of LOTR!

They didnt change the location of the castle, they simply expanded the camera angles to be able to take in the more sweeping scenic shots rather than just some castle in the midst of mist!

i didn't like lupin as a werewolf. i imagined him to look a lot ....stronger? rather than some skinny computerised bony dog, lol.

but when sirius holds lupin tight when he's transforming, clutching his chest and assuring him that they both know who lupin truly is, inside....... so beautiful.

"You know the man you truly are, Remus! This heart is where you truly live. This heart! Here! This flesh is only flesh..."

yeah i thought the werewolf was pretty scrawny as well.

Van Helsing, now thats a werewolf!

Loved it how harry and hermione travelled back in time, easily the best bit of the movie.

ew..so lanky and scrawny...Nobody has mentioned Professor Trelawney yet!...Emma Thompson played her well..I imagined her to be less hippy-esque but it was good nevertheless :)
