I've seen all the Harry Potter movies, but never really liked them. The acting isn't very good (from the main characters) and it's turned into more of a teen pop frenzy than a serious movie.
The books are good though.
Hey FWS,
Anyone else seen Harry Potter yet? I saw it this morning at 12:01AM at the local Galaxy Cinemas in digital projection. What an amazing movie, I think people are quick to judge them and point out every flaw, but I thought it was just excellent. I'd don't think I'd make a very good critic. We had to wait from 10PM Tuesday until about 11:40 in line to get in. Aside from that, I bought the tickets as soon as they had them on Monday, and they were sold out shortly after that.
Plus, they searched every persons bag and told everyone "No cell phones that can take pictures" so when they asked if I had anything in my pockets, I proudly proclaimed that I had a cell phone, but it can't take pictures. Nope, can't take that in, Damn, quickly scrambles for a locker to put it in. Let me say for the record that searching everyone for camera's is not going to stop piracy, not by a long shot.
That's my Harry Potter story, anyone else go to the Midnight showing at your local cinema? Any interesting stories? By the way, digital projection is so amazing, very clear, I hardly ever get the chance to watch movies on digital projection in the theatres.

I saw it this morning at 12:01 also. Didn't go through any searching or anything though.
It was a decent movie. The beginning and the end were great. The middle... not so much.
Life is very short, and there's no time for fussing and fighting my friend.
They wouldn't let you bring anything that took pictures in? What the hell? My theater has never done that.

Well, in my case, even things that didn't take pictures. I think because it was the first show they felt they had to be quite fanatical about it. Again, I think people are quite critical about everything with the movies just because they expect it to be word for word like the book, and that's impossible. I think the acting was good, everyone's getting better.
Boo Hoo, I guarantee the whole thing'll be on the internet within 5 days anyway.








I saw it at midnight too.
It was good, much better than the last one.

I would like to watch it but don't have the time any time soon.
I've read all the books so far and they're quite good, IMO. The movies skip a lot of details that the book includes. It's a necessary thing to keep the movies at a reasonable length.
I just got back from seeing it.
It was good, it was good.

I was planning on just skipping right to the DVD for this one. But seeing how some people are saying its better than last one, I think I might give it a shot after all.

I think you'll find that the dozens of copies of Harry Potter that are on bit torrent, are all fake. I do recommend you see it in theatres. It's a fantastic movie. A few of the lead actors were on Lettermen and Conan yesterday, hilarious interviews.
