I don't know.. as a member of a gaming website, I don't think gaming industry has any rights to accuse anybody of "milking" when you see Mario/Halo/FF games in every fricking genre. ;)

 An gaming reference in a gaming website. WHAT A SHOCKER! 

 

@jake_the_fake, yeah, Emma Watson was cute, but her pretty face can't mask the fact that she (well, none of the trio) can act to save their lives.

Glad to see a topic that invited fans of the movies to comment jsut attracted a bunch of haters. :(
Personally I loved all of the books, and while they were no literary maserpieces they are instant children's classics that can be enjoyed by all ages.

I am happy to hear about another movie. While I will have to wait to see the full epic on screen, I would have gone to see 3 movies per book for books 3 on. I wish book 5 could hav ebeen split just for the exceelent Sirius Black.

I have liked the change in direction for the most part. It has helped to carry the change in tone you see in the book as Harry ages.

My least favorite book was number two. The second book really seemed neither introductory, nor movign to the greater plot like 3 on.

My least favorite movie was number 4. I thought the director was trash and was too interested in doing dance routines and a flashy dragon fight than serving the fanbase. The maze sequence was lazy and truncated. Where was my blast ended skrewt?

If hey had only had one director we might have been stuck with a Chris Columbus, who was only suitable for children's movies. We would have also missed out on Alfonso Curan who would not have signed on for 7-8 movies. Movie 3 had the best direction in my opinion.



Final* Word on Game Delays:

The game will not be any better or include more content then planned. Any commnets that say so are just PR hogwash to make you feel better for having to wait.

Delays are due to lack of proper resources, skill, or adequate planning by the developer.

Do be thankful that they have enough respect for you to delay the game and maintain its intended level of quality.

*naznatips is exempt

>I wish book 5 could hav ebeen split just for the exceelent Sirius Black.

I refuse to watch 3 hours of Harry Potter emoing himself with razors in book 5. ;)

I too wish they have stuck with Columbus, although dull, those first 2 movies was true to the book. Art direction of late has become "Whatever the director who barely understood the storyline feels like it".

Yeah, lots of folks hatin on the movies/books/whatever.

I'm sure the Hollywood bigshots are thrilled the final movie is being split in two, as it means more moolah, but there really wasn't any other option. There is simply too much ground to cover for a two-two and half hour movie. Me and my brother had been wondering for a while if they were going to chop it to pieces, make one super-long movie, or split it. I'm glad they aren't chopping it, but would rather it be a long-ass movie. I realize that would be a bad business decision, so I'm fine with the split.

And to all you Potter haters: in the immortal words of Flo...kiss my grits.

I like the films and am currently reading order of the pheonix, which is going to take forever as I only read it when taking a shit. So far I have read about 2-300 pages and its not as good as the film. It's to longwinded and boring. If they hade included more of the book in the film then the film would have been better, but the book itself is so far realy dull.
