The Owl Posted July 31, 2008 Share Posted July 31, 2008 I think it will be good. The prospect that is looming is that Alan Rickman is going to have such a larger role in this film that the previous installments because of his character's (Snape) role in the sixth book. I.E........ Spoiler Warning for the book and movie below (highlight to read) -Snape becomes the Defense Against the Dark Arts Teacher - Snape Kills Dumbledore -Snape is the Half-Blood Prince...etc Alan Rickman is probably the best Actor in the HP film Franchise, I can't wait to see more screen time devoted to him!!!! On another note, I think this film will also define Michale Gambon as Dumbledore. Gambon really has not fully represented the role since he took over the role when Richard Harris died. This film is going to have a lot of exposition between DD and Harry. I think that this film will either Make or Break Gambon as Dumbledore.

If I hadn't read the book I would have had no idea what the hell was going on in the Goblet movie. I know it's hard to cut a 700-page book down to a 2.5-hour movie, but the book was that long for a reason. I'm so glad they're making two movies out of Deathly Hallows. The new trailer looks sick.

HBP was only 600 pages. There won't be as much compressing as much as with GOF and OoTP, hopefully it will do some good justice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He also had some pretty big shoes to fill. I'm sure he will be great in this movie. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I started reading them again about a month ago, and I'm halfway done with HBP now. Seeing the trailer while reading the book has me super excited about this movie coming out. I continue to be amazed at the quality of the story Rowling created. The drama and humor and fantasy of it all - just perfect. I'm torn between OotP and PoA as my favorite movie-adaptations of the books. The first two movies were great as well, but I'm a big fan of the way the story and content mature along with Harry.

Slime Posted August 1, 2008 Share Posted August 1, 2008 I must be the only person who thought that OOTP sucked as a movie. I thought GOF was startling in its skipping of REALLY important stuff, but it wasn't the letdown that OOTP was. HBP looks decent, but I'll have to wait because I'm all the way across the ocean Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ya_Big_Tree Posted August 2, 2008 Share Posted August 2, 2008 To be honest, when I was reading HBP I felt it was a bit rushed and written to please the readers rather than be conducive to the story. It was not my fave although it is a good story I felt it was lacking in quite a few areas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

While still a great book, I think when Rowling wrote HBP she definatly had the events of Deathly Hallows in mind. HBP really in a way feels like the Prologue to DH. The movie might play that way as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But also; PoA & OotP were my favourites, so maybe that's why I was fine with OotP. I can't wait for this movie to be out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spindrift82 Posted August 2, 2008 Share Posted August 2, 2008 (edited) I'm really getting excited about this movie. Half-Blood Prince is my favorite HP book, it'll be interesting to see how it translates onto the screen (especially the memory bits.)

I think most of it was the script; they brought in a new writer for the Order, and the movie suffered as a result. The writer who wrote for the first four movies is returning for the sixth one, so I'm thinking it'll be better.

Mandalorian Hunter Posted August 2, 2008 Share Posted August 2, 2008 Goblet Of Fire was good, but it is the worst of the lot. I lost hope in it after seeing the Death Eater scene at the Quidditch World Cup. They should have devoted more time to it. The great thing about Order... is that JK told them to make a good film, rather than try and stick close to the book, which was the problem with GOF. I still think Prisoner Of Azkaban is the best of all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not like HP films are going to suffer at the box office if they're put out in the winter. Besides, they always seem like wintery-type films to me. Still, doing 6, 7i and 7ii in consecutive years is cool. If they do this to Quantum Of Solace I'm going head-hunting Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
