Best Harry Potter movie ever made and one of the best final movies of a saga ever made as well. Everything was thoroughly executed (except for the parts referring to older books/movies that weren't in those movies, wouldn't make any sense to put them in this one) and the siege of Hogwarts was trully an epic battle.

Major laughs at the ending though, the four of them in their 35/36 year old form were hilarious xD.

Oh and Alan Rickman's performance? Like Ron would put it = Brilliant! 

How does it compare with ROTK?

It was quite weak, I agree. Out of all of them, I like only 1,2, and 4. Didn't see any of the 7s after suffering through 6.

6 is the worst yeah, a shame cus it was the best book (tied with 4)

I like 4 and 5 the most, despite 5 being the worst book the movie was done well.

but see both Part 7's!!

Overall, I think Deathly Hallows was better executed than ROTK, even though Part 2 covered for a lot of faults that Part 1 had, plus Part 2 didn't suffer from the same fate of ROTK, which was to have a massively extended ending sequence after the main action itself (which was, as I recall, the main criticism of ROTK).

Acting quality was all there in the main characters (though no one comes as close as to Alan Rickman's performance) and some were even surprising, like Matthew Lewis (Neville Longbottom) or Maggie Smith (Minerva Mcgonagall) because they were pitch perfect with their book counterparts.

Ive read the book but that was three years ago mate. I wish I didn't because I pretty much knew how it all was going to play out.

But I always thought that the deflection of his own spell would (after the expelliarmus disarming him) somewhat throw Voldy back, and not just.. Oh.. my wand is gone... IM DYING ..O_O

I guess it played a bit differently in my head as I read the book xD. Didn't like how they died either, the whole going into ..smoke shit or whatever xP.

No it can't, avatar got what it got from 3D being the new ting (I don't care how well it was done!)

Avatar is pretty crap in itself. Avatar 2 won't even reach top 5.

I'm not going until Sunday so i can go for free (my dormitory offered 30 free tickets, and no-one around here seems to care about anything, so i easily made it on the list)

Part 1 dissapoints me. But this sounds promising.

The chances are low I agree, I checked numbaers and yeah after a massive breakout hit the sequel never does as well (Empire Strikes Back, Spider-Man 2 etc). But your under-estimating Avatars positive word of mouth, the kids and tons of people loved it (IMBD rating is high too), I don't know why its so insanely adored but it is (thought it was a good film but camerons worst).

I think it'll easily get into the Top 5 though unless it sees ticket sales declines of over a half from avatar which would be hilarious but just unlikely given Avatar had mostly a positive word of mouth. Finally I have faith it'll be a excellent movie cus Cameron's track record with sequels is impeccable (Terminator 2 and Aliens!)
