Yes HP Movies all over again, I know I talk about a lot, so I liked the first what two, and not the second two uuuuuuuuuh it's awfully, they don't stick to the books at all, I don't like that much I admit so I did like the weirdsisters though and the ball I guess it's good and I did like the mer-songs, how dare they didn't mention molly and no movie had peeves actually he makes it funny

I know! What's wrong with them? What I hate the most is the portrayal of Hermione. Her personality is faithful to the books, but not her looks. She looks WAY too pretty from the second movie and onward. And she's too fasionable too. Don't they get she's a nerd? I mean for instance, when she's all dressed up in a pretty gown during the ball your suppose to be like "WOAH! Who's that? She's beautiful!", but you're like, "oh. There's Emma Watson in a dress..." I just hope the 5th movie is better.
I heard a rumor their cutting out Order of the Pheonix. I hope not cause it way too central to the story. Then again, the person who told me that didn't even seem to know what she was talking about....

no no way order of pheonix is way to major to cut out, that's the main thing in the HP Movie, and I do hope too, I hope they sirius death duel more serious then just whatever.

Continuing on the looks thing that Gifted said, do you notice that after about 2nd year in the films they stop wearing robes?

Yeah I noticed that too. And like MoonGazer7 said I hope they make Sirius's death and the battle before it really good and gripping and sad all at the same time!! Ya know like just as he's falling through the Vail it should be in slow motion! That would be cool!

I noticed that too starbright9 and I must say I liked the first uniform alot better (though I couldn't careless about the hats because those did look stupid).
Yes, I hoping for that too. I especially hope they perfect Ron's part. That's going to be funny. Of course, I hope they don't over do the action at the same time. Pirates 2 is a examplew of that. While a good movie, the wheel battle scene was WAY too long. They need to go for the perfect blend (I do have high expectations).

Okay, I don't have that so this is going to short, have to get to school soon.
Well, with the action part I don't know if they even can over do it. There is so much to cover, as it's the longest book in the series.
Oh, yeah, I totally agree with the looks thing. Oh and do you notice some of the characters don't even act like the book ones.
You know in the fourth movie Emma sometimes didn't act like Hermione in the books, and Dumbledore's part also shocked me. I Don't think Dumbledore would really raise his voice. Moody's and Ron's actor was good though.

Mmmm, I hope the next film works too. It would be a shame if it wasn't like the books, and they really can't cut loads out because it's all important (well most of it is). The changing of the characters is annoying. Also, my mum was saying about how sometimes in the books Harry talks back to teachers whereas in the films Ron says it. They've made Ron completely comic and Harry all hero. What do you think?

Yeah, you got a point with cutting stuff out, and Yeah most of it is important.
Oh yes, I think the Harry in the movies is sometimes annoying. It's not like a boy, to act all hero. I mean, sometimes the Movies portraits him as perfect. He is not though, and yes he does talk back to teachers. With out that he does seem unnatural.
Ron is too funny sometimes, Yes he does talk back to the teachers, but not all the time, and Harry should do it too. I think Ron's actor should be a little more serious, but not too serious, as ron is kind of funny sometimes in the books.

Your last sentence about Ron didn't make sense. Care to explain?
Did anyone find PoA had a little too much angst? I understand Harry is a teen and he was going through a lot, but honestly!

You know Ron is kinda of silly and thick in the books. He is way too much so in the movies. Way too silly, and too commical! It's great that the person playing ron is funny, but it over done is not funny!
POA? Oh, Yes, it's okay, but it was kinda of sad. You are talking about the movies right?

Yeah, if I remember rightly PoA was a bit too angsty but I can't remember it well because it's been a long time since I saw it.

Oh, Yeah, I think the book was a little sad too, but when they made the movie they emphasized it a bit too much. POA wasn't supposed to be that sad, but the director seemed to think so.

The book was a bit sad, film was more so. Directors often have a very different take on how books should be as films.
