Same. I love that part of the book.

Ditto. It could of been a little grave-like. If you know what I mean.

Anyone else watch the interview with Jo on Oprah?

She said she could definitley write an eighth, ninth and tenth book but that doesn't mean she's going to.

Callum · 03-10-2010, 06:03 PM

Currently having a re-read of all the books

On Goblet of Fire at the moment, anyone else planning on re-reading them before Deathly Hallows? Only 7 weeks to go now!

Yeah I watched it last night. I dont think she will write another one to be honest.

Im re-reading them. Im on Order of the Phoenix. I think the OotP film was crap in respect to the book.

I thought only the first two really managed to grasp the actual feel of the books.
The third wasn't like how I imagined the book but it was a good film all the same.
I've personally hated the 5th and 6th ones so I'm not looking forward to another one from this David Yates chap. So far he's demonstrated that he has a completely different idea and take on the books to me.

As for the books I think she may write another in a few years based in the Harry Potter universe but not about Harry. Harry's story is definitely finished I'd say.

New posters are amazing, I love them!

Harry and Hermione

Bellatrix and Lucius

Hermione and Ron

9 amazing TV spots (basically mini trailers) have been released and they are incredible! My personal favorite, the Seven Potters scene looks so funny and I love Dobby saying to Hermione "I like her very much"

Some of the supposed changes from the book. They could be worse I guess but the lack of polyjuice potion annoys me, cos it was a big part in the book. Guess they want to keep themselves looking themselves as much as possible.

That does seem a bit stupid, bearing in mind that in the book the reason that they take the Polyjuice potion when they go to Godrics Hollow is because they know that Voldemort would expect Harry to go there, especially when he visits his parent's grave.

I like that they are opening the first film with Dumbledore's funeral though, as that was one thing that annoyed me with the HBP, his death, the lead up to it and afterwards was all way too rushed considering they had just killed off a major character.

Glenn. · 20-10-2010, 10:41 PM

I like the sound of the Quidditch Field burning down.

Marsh. · 20-10-2010, 11:09 PM

I don't mind the changes they've stated. Obviously they want more screentime for the actual actors rather than "disguise actors" but I hope they try to explain the plot hole of why they would go to Godric's Hollow with no disguise. Nagini's attack being in a brightly lit room bothers me slightly since it was very sinister and dark in the book.
And apparently they have to give exposition for appearance of characters that they didn't put into the previous films, sounds a bit crap.
Other than that there's nothing major that's changed.

The scene added about Hermione leaving her parents looks horribly sad - she has to erase their memories of her parents (all of them) so that Voldemort can't torture them for information. There was something I reblogged on Tumblr about it.

Aww I actually like that they've added that, it only gets mentioned briefly in the book, but it makes you realise how much Ron and Hermione are willing to risk/give up to help Harry on his Horcrux quest.

I'm assuming they won't be able to show Ron's part with the ghoul with spattergroit that is going to be his cover

bearing in mind the Burrow burned down in the HBP film. That was another part that annoyed me in that film, there was no need for it and they could have saved the time wasted on that for the fight at Hogwarts that led up to Dumbledore's death. They rushed that too much for me and it was almost like a non event whereas it's a big battle in the book.

They didn't want to do a big Hogwarts fight scene in HBP aas they thought it would diminish the impact of the end fight in Deathly Hallows. They added in the Burrow bit to put a bit more action in.

Callum · 22-10-2010, 12:39 PM

So happy I have an Odeon Premiere Club card now, I just booked to see Deathly Hallows in the IMAX screen and I didn't have to pay a penny.

I really want to see it twice on November 19th though, once in the morning and again in the evening.

Meh, I still think the burning down of the Burrow was pointless and also means they can't have the lead up to the wedding stuff nor the Ron part I mentioned above in the last film now. I was really disappointed at how short and how much of a non event the whole lead up to Dumbledore's death was.

Booked tickets last night!

Callum · 24-10-2010, 04:17 PM

Runtime for Part 1 is 147 minutes, the third shortest in the franchise so far. Really excited for November 19th now although I wish I was going to the London premiere as well.

Callum · 26-10-2010, 01:38 PM

Going twice now on November 19th, once in the morning and again in the night. It probably would have made more sense to go on Saturday as well as Friday but I can see Saturday being packed with general cinema goers who aren't necessarily fans of the books.
