As I said in my last post I went and saw Harry Potter 7 Pt.II the night it opened(I even dressed up). The movie was not as great as I had expected. Now, it's defiantly not the worst movie. That award would have to go to the fifth Harry Potter movie, The Order of the Phoenix.
The movie had a very quick pace, which wasn't all that bad. It made it feel shorter than it was. There were some good parts to this movie. Like when they were trying to break into the vaults. That was pretty kewl. Another part in the movie that was well done was when Harry looked into Snap's memory. SO SAD!!! They also did the after death for Harry well. The fighting wasn't to bad either. I'm talking about the huge fight scene between the Death Eaters and everyone. For the most part, those are the main good parts I could think of off the top of my head.
What was not so good was the freaking death of Voldemort!!!! It was sooo pathetic. They could've made it so BAM! Epic. And they really didn't. I personally didn't think that part was good at all. And that was supposed to be the main event!! And then after Voldemort did die no one was all like YAY! HE'S DEAD!!! They were just kind of like... oh okay. Let's go enjoy life now. ...?? Okay They should've kept to the ending they had in the book! At least that part if anything. That was my biggest hate on the movie. I mean they should've gone all out on that part. Some of the movie was also cheesy. Like the ending, when they're just holding hand on the bridge? Okay wtf was up with that? It just looked silly. The kissing scene between Ron and Hermione was super random to.
So overall it wasn't the most fantastic movie in the world!!! But it was okay. I'd give it a B. I don't think I'll be buying this one.

Harry Potter?
Okay. So, this Friday morning at 12:00 am the final Harry Potter movie is coming out. EVERYONE is sooo excited. Now, I'll admit I'm pretty excited to. But I've come to the realization, the Harry Potter movies really aren't that fantastic. I mean I loved them the first time watching them and even the second time(and some of them the third time). But now I just have a hard time re watching them.
One of the reasons I just can't seem to re watch them is the books are just SO much better. They have so much more description and just add so much more depth to the story.
A second reason would be that Daniel Radcliffe is just a horrible actor. Yes, I agree they could have chosen a worse actor, but they also could have chosen a better actor! He's the main one I have a problem with acting wise. And I know it's his character, but he annoys the crap out of me in the movies. Freaking complaining and whining ALL THEE TIME. I know he does the same things in the books but my goodness I can hardly stand watching him do it. It's easier to read about.
The first two movies were done by a different director than the last ones. The first two movies followed the books very close. Those two were pretty good. THEN they brought in the new director, who didn't follow the books as close.... He also made them much darker.(color wise) Which I guess is slightly understandable cause it's a pretty dark book. But really. Make all the color darker? The first two were pretty bright, only getting dark when needed.
Those are some of my complaints about the movies. I think they're fantastic the first time or two but after that I think I'll just stick with the books.
I would also like to make it known that even though I've just bashed on the Harry Potter movies, I will be watching the new one in costume. :D BUT not the night it comes out. Super Harry Potter movie fans enjoy. I'll be reading the book on that night. :)
