    You wouldn't know that though because you've demonstrably never picked up a book nor educated yourself on the matter. Let me guess, overweight housewife?

    If you think the movie's gonna suck so badly, don't watch it and save the rest of su the bitching. :D

    Me, I'm about to piss my pants, I'm so excited!

    I enjoy the movies for what they are and the books for what they are. I don't let them mix in my head so as not to ruin the experience for each. ^^

    I like alot of other ppl thathave posted just view the movies as different, although alot worse, different so I can't complain too much. Really just like them for the special effects.

    Don't think there's much I can add to this. Movies have been poorly done, more so recently.

    But I feel like saying: why the hell are they making two movies out of the last book instead of Half-Blood Prince.

    I think I remember reading its because there's so many important things that happen that there's not much they can/want to cut from it.

    That and 2 movies = more profits of course.

    I too thought this was the one that was going to have two parts. I hope they didn't cut out any of the hot chicks that would suck. I never read this book I stopped at Order of the Phoenix, I never even finished it. Is this book all about Voldemort though? I think it would be cool if he was involved a lot more.

    To a degree, yes, its all about Voldemort, but its not told from his perspective. I hope its good, I've enjoyed all the movies so far. They'll never be able to please everyone, never mind fanboys.

    I've loved the movies so far, haven't even touched one of the books. As much as people say the books are better, I will just be seeing the movies and enjoying them for what they are.

    This one looks pretty dark, and I am sure I will enjoy it as much as the others.

    I too think that the movies are poorly done. The movies seem to just speed through scenes, and assume you've read the books (which I have, but still). I mean, I don't expect everything to be perfect, but there's just something about the movies...they just don't have the Harry Potter feel to them, if that makes any sense. A big part of that is Dumbledore, which most have already pointed out as not being anything like the one from the books.

    Lord of the Rings is, in my opinion, the pinnacle of book to movie transition. They changed/cut a lot of things, but it still felt like Lord of the Rings, and most of the major stuff still happened, and everything was all tied together very well.

    With all of that said, I'll still go see it, just because I like Harry Potter.

    The further and further we get in to the Harry Potter film series, the more and more I just want to cry.

    The movies are utter garbage, I wish they could have gotten someone whose at least READ the novels to write/direct the movies.

    In all honesty, this book was my absolute favorite out of them all. I really cannot wait for this movie.

    I'll watch it if Ginny has a hot kissing scene (+ more hopefully) with Harry

    (I think it's in the 6th book which Harry starts to fall for her?)
