haven't seen the trailer for it, but as I felt the book was the worst in the series I'm not looking forward to it that much. the two part finale, on the other hand, looks interesting.
I haven't seen it, but it must be on youtube, I'll watch it later.
And yes, I'm very excited for this movie, it's my favorite book in the series, I'm dying to see the black lake in the cavern, if they got it right this will be one of my favorite movies of all time. :D
Six down (by this years end), just one more to go, hang in there. :P

last book's being made into a two parter, though.
Really? I didn't know that.
But why book seven? It's considerably thinner than 5 and 6, and every new movie's been butchering more than half of its respective book since the third anyway.

I guess because there's a fair amount of content that the movie wouldn't make sense without, like the torture scene.
Meh overrated cliche fantasy books with mostly 1 dimensional chararacters and plots eing turned into films are not my cup of tea. Maybe if they had a good director like Terry Gilliam direct then maybe the films would be better.

Which makes most of the movies horrible
Most characters in the books are pretty one dimensional, harry especially is one of the most cliche heroes I have ever read. He is the only one to kill the dark lord, reluctant hero, yet his friends do all the interesting stuff. Ron just pisses me off and the others I couldnt care less about. Except Sirius and Lupin, they were pretty awesome. If I am going to dedicate tons of my time to a huge book series like harry potter it better be damn good. There are much better fantasy series out there that deserve films like the Dark Tower series, the book of the new sun series and the song of ice and fire series.

though you have to admit, the way Voldemort died was rather unexpected.

Unexpected in the way that it kinda pissed me off yeah.

The books have some amazing characters, and the way in which the main three interact is perfect. My favourite parts of the series had absolutely nothing to do with the main storyline; like the whole SPEW thing.

I just find most of the books characters very uninteresting and bland. The students interactions are fun but not something I would want to read for 7 books straight, though I already did. Problem with the harry potter world ashide from that there is nothing unique or interesting about it to me, most of it has been done before. Also the harry potter world is pretty black and white most of the time, read a song of ice and fire for some really interesting characters and storylines.

Well, wizards and magic are common themes, but it's the school setting that makes it what it is... for me anyway. That's kind of why the movies never appealed to me for a while, because they were never in lessons and the whole year seemed to pass by in two days. There's just something cutesy about the mystery solving stuff that goes on within lessons and over breakfast and lunch... fills my heart with joy, it does. >_>

I can see why the school setting could be seen as unique but even that has been done before and in a better way. Enders game did the school setting much better imo.
