Does anyone else agree with me that the harry potter movies suck? Admit it, the casting (maybe except for Daniel Radcliffe) was bad (who had ever heard of Rupert Grind and Emma Watson before HP?), they skipped a lot of good parts, which were only shown on DVD.
Actually I think the movies were disappointments! They just put in a lot of special effects and hoped that would make people happy !

yeah i no! the films are a load of crap compared to the books!

The movies are an insult to the books!!!

i disagree and i think they did a good job and until u become a director and have to deal with problems they have in movies and when ur a millionare then u have the right to critize the way the movies made. sry no offence but i dont think we have the right to critize and they must be good they made a !@#$ load of money

They left out all the best bits. They should have made it a bit longer. I wouldnt mind.

just make the 4th and 5th movie more than 2 1/2 hourd and ill be fine

look i can agree they left out sum bits worth while but they did a sensational job on the movies and in that type of industry things cost money and not everyone has an endlles pocket of money so when u see a bad movie dont think oh crap think poor b@st@rds lol hahahahha

meh well i just think that it's a load of crap, and the acting isn't that great :P

I only like prof Lupin but other than that I hate Harry Potter and think its rubbish!!!!

The movies could of beeen way better but I still enjoyed them

all movies where good ... its the fact they missed half of the plot from the third one ...

Yeah...that sucked ......I wish they mad extended editions like with LOTR.. That would b cool

there were really few important points that they missed in PoA, and it was the best directed movie of the bunch; it had a darker, more real tone than the first two, which were obviously made for children. Cuaron's movie was good for both children and adults both

Yup

i thought that the movies were awesome.....and if all u want to do n here is critize the movies and things then y r u here??

Im not critising

i thought casting was pretty good and based on the available money, they did a pretty good job, except i didn't like dan, i think his acting is entirely superficial and emma puts too much of herself into the character unfortunately her characteristics she chooses to portray thru hermione are not adequate for the character, however rupert did a great job, completely natural, you actually saw ron thru him instead of just watching emma and dan thru hermione and harry, also i hated that they gave hermione all the important lines and reduced ron to the comidic relief

I liked the movies .... but I like more the books

They made HP movies because HP books were popular you idiot. And who gives a flying crap if the actors weren't heard of before, THE CAST WAS CHOSEN TO CLOSELY RESEMBLE HOW THE CHARACTERS WERE DESCRIBED! And they didn't do a bad job acting either. I assume you're not a director, so you have no idea the problems that come with the job. The movies were good. Get over it. (zips mouth)

do you think if you werent a HP book fan and you didnt read all the books that the movies you critisize would have been looked at in another way instead of being looked at as boring and suckful? just asking.....

Erm...they wanted to cash in

If a film is either

a) based on a best seling book
2) Controversial
g) full of robots...

It will sell, even if it is shit...

I mean I love all the movies & all the books...even tho everyone knows the books are better I still watch them lol when I can 1, 2 and 3

Its just all about high expectations....i mean if JKR didnt create the books but someone created the HP movies wouldnt you think that there the best movies ever...cuz i would

exactly
High expectations ruin everything

Look at SW ep-1

I don't understand the question. Can you re-phrase it please?

I personally was satisfied with how the movies were created. I loved the books, but I never get my hopes up about anything, and I didn't completely hate the movies.

I mean lets just say you hadnt read a single HP book b4...

but you went to the movies and watched HP 1, 2 & 3..

would you feel the same way like how youve felt if you were a HP book reader???

In my opinion i loved all the HP movies...i have them all on dvd & PoA on Computer....and I am a book reader aswell!!

But i totally agree with you not getting your hopes up...when it comes to the JKR books & movies its best not to get your hopes up...

Yep I agree

i too am happy with both the movies and the books

if they do all 7 that will be awesome

the same here. I mean its too much to expect that a movie could ever reach a book. The books would always be better, and there is no movie that can portray completelly and authntically a book. The HP movies were a great experience to see how the characters that I imagined were chosen by the directors and how the events were portrayed in the movies compared to my head

yup it wud i think it be stupid if they justed made 5 films and stopped cuz really for them that havent read it . it wud finish in the middle really

there stopping after 5 thats not fair

ive not read the books i go off the films there awesome

true they make it easier to put a face to the character

Wow. . . new actors????? -_- i'm sure nobody had heard of Orlando Bloom before Lotrs came out either, or Julia Roberts before Pretty Women

i dont care if there not like the books its something too look forward too isnt it every year

lol a 2 g?

lol

and the actors are getting better every movie

most def

emma watson is a nice girl i think

this yes

dunno

@ angelsflame.....

yeap the actors & actresses do get better in each movie...developing quite well but whats this with the 5th movie being the last that is not fair.......i thought the movie industry wanted the opinions of the fans lol

no its not rite why stop at five basically half way thro movies to leave it just like that no proper ending or nething like it

lol maybe then the ppl who just watch the movies will read the books

mayb.... but wat if buk 6 &7 are rely good and are worth making into movies..
