Title: "Boring?"
Post by: Bloodwake on April 30, 2007, 12:17:39 AM: DOESN'T LOOK FUCKING BORING TO ME.

Good casting? Check

Art design? Check.

WINNAR? Remains to be seen, but I'm looking forward to it. Then again, liking Harry Potter automatically makes me a horrible person on this forum, but whatever. The film is most definitely going to be better than Pirates (not a fan of the Pirates series) and might oust Spider-Man 3 for summer blockbuster of the summer (in quality, not box office numbers, for that, my pick is still Spider-Man).

No, it's the new Harry Potter you dolts. Willco called the trailer boring, and that's a reference to it.

Post by: brandonh83 on April 30, 2007, 12:26:01 AM: Not if you're into the characters and universe. And it has the best battle sequence in all the books so far. It's slow, yes, and extremely long, but I didn't have a problem with it.

Sounds about right. Epic battle, awesome locations, and one ultimate bitch. Makes it my favorite book in the series, and so far, the movie looks good.

Post by: Himu on April 30, 2007, 12:27:49 AM: Hell no. The character in 5 were pretty crap tastic. I hate Harry in that book. WOW I HAVE A CHRISTMAS PRESENT I HAVEN'T OPENED YET AND IT'S FUCKING JUNE. OPENING IT EARLIER WOULD HAVE SAVED MY FUTURE FOSTER FATHER'S LIFE BUT INSTEAD I WAS A DUMB FUCK.

The best of book 5, I reiterate, are the parts where Harry teaches the kids in secret and Neville owns shit up.

Book 6 > *

I hated that bitch in book 5. I wanted her to die.

Post by: Bloodwake on April 30, 2007, 12:29:58 AM: I totally disagree. I wanted to take my foot and shove it through the pages right up Umbridge's ass. What a fucking cunt.

But that's what the reader was supposed to do. Rowling put this bitch in there for the readers to hate, and hate her we did. I had a Satanic fucking hatred for that bitch.

Post by: Himu on April 30, 2007, 12:34:12 AM: So did I.

I don't know, book 5 is my least favorite Potter book but I was STILL addicted to the damn thing. I have a love/hate it relationship with the book. It just feels too damn long, and a lot of the teenage angst pisses me off.

Post by: brandonh83 on April 30, 2007, 12:34:39 AM: Can't really blame Harry myself over how he acted in it. I thought he had more than enough reason personally. Aside from Harry's pissy attitude I don't see how the characters were really that different than they were in the other books.

Title: Re: "Boring?"
Post by: Himu on April 30, 2007, 12:35:58 AM: Well yeah, it was generally Harry. The other characters were okay, but Sirius got some good development.

I hated how long it took Hermione and Ron to just admit they want to jump each other's bones. I don't know why she waited for book 6 to include that. In book 5 there's more cock teasing.

Plus, Che Cho. That bitch deserves a spell up her dirty vagina.

Even more reason to hate the Chinese slut.

Umbridge isn't ugly or fat enough in the movie.

Post by: Himu on April 30, 2007, 12:46:28 AM: I'm impressed. The trailer looks better than the book.
Title: Re: "Boring?"
Post by: brandonh83 on April 30, 2007, 12:48:37 AM: Ugh matching stuff up in the books perfectly is never going to happen, besides I think she perfectly gives off that evil elementary school teacher vibe which is essentially what Rowling was trying to do with her in the first place. Besides it's all about performance and Imelda Staunton is a wonderful actress. I think she looks close enough to how I pictured the film version of her. Getting someone that would look like what Rowling describes would have required the casting agent to cast a hideous overweight midget who probably can't act.

I think you should send me your screenplay sir.
