Theatrical Release: July 11, 2007.

I usually like to re-read the Harry Potter Book again right before the movie of it comes out but I just don't feel like it.

If anything, it'll make the movie more fresher when you see something or find out something that you forgot.

It's still interesting though to be up to date on everything and then see it come to life on screen.

Anata Wa Wakarimasu Ka.....

i'm definitely going to see it =)

EDIT: and it should make #1

Will it top the summer box office? No chance. I'm still pumped, though.

Probalby be around $250 mark.

Considering its my favourite book out of the series, I'm pumped.

Cant wait for the standoff at the end....thats going to be amazing, or so I hope and totally hope they show Voldermort getting his ass kicked.

is this the one where snape kills dumbledore?

Next movie, rage.

I want to go see it at the Imax theater, so I can see the last fight in 3D. 131

cool


doesnt watching these movies that were meant for smaller cinemas on an imax hurt your head? I love watching movies in the imax that were shot on imax film (not sure of the specific sizes) but movies where the film is just blown up to fit the screen, doesnt the action sequences make you queesy? I remember watching attack of the clones on imax, and recieved the worst headache ever, has the technology changed since then, was that possibly just that imax or what?

it looks ****ing incredible.

No, it's the one where Sirius Black dies.

Shame the films have never matched up to their counterparts, and the first two have no merit at all on their own, but I'll not miss this next installment.

I'm just waiting for the trendy cynics to come in and declare the Harry Potter books crap. Which they aren't. And no, I'm quite happy buying the "childish" covers.

Oh God stop with the spoiling! Some people just read the first two books and see the movies from there!

Not sure, but man I can't wait for the next Harry Potter movie and also I can't wait for The Transformers movie. I'm sooooooOOooo excited!

It's strange to me because they're all so old in this one. I mean I know they've been looking older each movie, but Harry Potter kissing a girl! Ron and Hermione or what?! They just grow up so fast crybaby !

Yes, oh thank you so very much. I mean, what more could I want except another spoiling of the story!!

Well, considering six books are out, and the movies are based on the books, and you just entered a thread about the fifth movie... you should expect spoilers.

hahaah, whenever a movie i want to see comes out, and i find out it's based on a book, i'll usually go read the book first, spoilers be damned.

Well I wouldn't really call the contents of a book that has a movie coming out based on it spoilers.

The reason books have movies based on them is because the books are very popular and many people have already read it so the movie is being made for people who have already read it.

So I wouldn't necessarily say when you read a book that has a movie counterpart that your'e reading spoilers. I'd say it's ideal to read the book first before seeing the movie. It's better tha way.

It's less appealing to see a movie first and then try and read the book, b/c the book takes longer to get through and you already know what's going ot happen and it's not as fun.

It's fun to see the words on pages come to life on the big screen instead of vice versa.

Anata wa wakarimasu ka.....

good point.

back to hp. i can't wait, cuz book 7 and movie 6 r coming out within a week of each other O.O

Huh, you mean book 7 and movie 5.

About spoilers, personally, its not alright to tell somebody what happens in the movie because of the book. Not everybody has read all the books and watched all the movies.

I didnt want to read the books because I thought they were for kids, but my aunt from England came over and asked me to rent it so my mom, step dad and I could watch it. I didnt want too, but I kinda had too.

I was very surpraised about the movie and I thought it was pretty damn cool. If I knew the ending because somebody told me, that movie wouldnt be as good. Same with Chamber of Secrets and it was only then when my girlfriend started reading all of them that I got hooked.

So its not alright to give out spoilers to people even though its a hugely popular franchise.

Thus saying, anybody who cares of not knowing the ending of the books, dont go to thread pages pertaining to that book, or series. Your setting yourself for failure.

bottom line is, people should be aware of what they post in these kinda threads pertaining to events that greatly effect major characters.

i thought there already was a rule on spoilers?

Well considering this thread is for the 5th Movie/Book anything up to this point isn't really considered a spoiler b/c obviously many of the people who come in here to post have already read the books as well and know what is going to happen in the movies already. It's implied.

Anata wa wakarimasu ka.....

he rented the movie and watched it.

actually, the spoilers have all been for books 5 and 6, and a poster in the first page stated that he hasn't read those books yet. so....he's been thoroughly spoiled.

and u'd be surprised how many people who have been keeping up with the movies haven't read the books.

People are going to talk about it and it's only natural being that many have read the book.

We're not supposed to Tippy Toe around someone who hasn't even read the books but comes into a thread such as this one where many have read the book and just not say anything.

Just as Smasandian said above, "You're setting yourself up for failure."

Anata wa wakarimasu ka.....

he was still spoiled for book 6.

this topic is about people's predictions on HP box office standings. there was no reason for this topic to even contain spoilers.

No, this Thread was made for the Discussion of the Movie as a whole that happened to have a Poll at the top.

And as I said, the books are out and for as long as they've been out, it's not really considered a spoiler.

Yes this thread is about the 5th, but the 6th has been out for over a year or so.

So it's not really a spoiler. And being that the person on the last page has only read the First 2 Books, to come into a thread based on the 5th Installment is rather unwise.

It's nobody's fault but their own.

anata wa wakarimasu ka.....

whatever ur intent was when creating this topic, the lack of a proper lead-in to this discussion led me to follow up on ur poll question, as were the first few replies.

there is a perfectly good harry potter section also. we could discuss hp there.

Being that this is a MOVIE DISCUSSION Forum, not much of a LEAD ON is needed, thus why the MOVIE will be DISCUSSED here.

Anata wa wakarimasu ka.....

Ok then, if you want to discuss the movie, the first two were quite frankly excretion. On film.

And Alfonso Cuaron made alot of implication from the start about a possible Hermoine and Ron relationship, it doesn't simply "happen" in the Xth book.

I think it will make a good amount of m oney like the others will.But I do'nt think it is going to be any good.I had seen the coming attrentions and I don't feel at all impress with them.jm

No matter how bad it may (or may not) be, it will definitely make #1

You've only read the First 2 books. What YOU consider spoilers, aren't Spoilers at all. This is a Thread about the 5th Movie. You've only read the First 2. Anything after the first 2 is being considered a spoiler by you when it's really common knowledge to many since the books have been out for years.

You should expect to learn things beyond the first 2 books when you enter such a thread.

What do you mean by "They've taken so much from the book and that it's sick"???

This movie is actually looked much better than any of the previous ones with all of the action and all.

Anata wa wakarimasu ka.....

I'm sorry, but you really should have used spoilers, it's certainly not common knowledge to everyone.

THey had taken most of the chactors out.That the director does not find imporant enough.I know the book is very long and they can't have every bit of it in a movie.
BUt why do they skip out parts that people are going to get confuse when not reading the books?Also the second HP movie was the closet so far to the book.
All by lines from the book.I doubt it if this one is going to be the same.One why the hell is LOrd Volemort in a bus station?jm

That my friend, is a very good question. I spent at least all my time on Harry Potter books. And I don't remember Voldemort being at the Hogwarts Express! I mean either Harry was seeing things or that director doesn't know anything. And since when did Voldemort start dressing in nice black suits. I thought wizards wore cloaks. Yeah Yeah Yeah, they wore muggle clothing in the books and in the movies, but Voldemort didn't!


Imagine Voldie in a bathing suit. I shudder at the thought.
I THINK I'M GONNA BE SICK!

"This is a Thread made for discussion on the Harry Potter Series, specifically the 5th. I'm not going to Spoiler Tag anything for anyone, nor has anyone, especially when someone who has only read the first 2 books comes along and expects everything beyond the first 2 to be spoiler tagged. This isn't a discussion for the first 2 books and nothing else and will not be conducted in that way. My Thread won't be censored for such people. Now get over it and move on."

I wonder how accurate they'll be in revealing the prophecy, which says that EITHER HARRY POTTER OR LORD VOLDEMORT WILL DIE BY THE OTHER'S HAND/WAND.

but no i can't wait to see it i hope they haven't cut lots out

As I said earlier, you should have used Spoiler Tags, or at least mentioned Spoilers in the title. Just admit you done wrong, be a big man and try to remember not to do it again!

I'm sure they've cut stuff out like they've been doing the whole time to make the movie short enough and flow smoothly enough.Originally posted by exanda kane

If they havnt read the books, and dont want anything spoiled, dont come in the thread about the movie of the 5th book.

It's thier fault if they come into this thread not knowing what happens.

I also sludder at that thought! He is not supose to be wearing nice outfits.He is a bad guy for goodest stake!I really don't think that the director even listens to J Rowling at all because she oversees the movies being made.
IT is either that or he just does not care/It is quite sad.jm

if it was something major, jk rowling would've taken steps to prevent it. nothing drastic of course, almost everyone listens to jk rowling

How would they know this? The poll itself mentions nothing of spoilers; it's just a poll asking who is going to see it. Suddenly, they scroll down and without any indication, some of the biggest events in the franchise are spoiled for them. I'm sorry, but your point is completely flawed.

HARRY POTTER FORUM!!!!!!
