Hermoine finally falls for the pedious curse that Snape throws her way and the movie ends with her in the hot tub with the dark lord.

Read the book a few weeks ago, but have to wait till next week to watch the movie. I really do hope it does the book justice.

I can't wait to see this movie.

So should this:

Harry: Hello, Hermione. Welcome back. How was your summer?

Hermione: Boring. Nothing happened.

Harry: Really? [ looking at Hermione's chest ] Seems like a lot happened.

Hermione: I don't know what you're talking about.

Harry Potter set a new record for Midnight openings with $22.2 million dollars, which beats the record held by The Dark Knight at $18.5 million. Crazy.

Went to go see the 10:35pm show of The Hangover last night, I totally forgot that Harry Potter was opening that night. The line-up outside for the midnight show went around the building on both sides!!(two line-ups)

It must've been so busy at theatres around North America at that moment, because all the instant movie pass machines were down except for one, and they weren't even being used.

I just got back from the movie, and I thought it was fantastic.

I haven't read the books in the while, and I know there are some things left out and a few things added. If a person goes only to see how much the movie matches the book, with any movie/book combination, the person is surely to be disappointed.

But if you look at this movie from a standpoint of a film, and how telling a story differs in film as compared to a book, it's simply the best of the series so far. Fantastic character development along with poignant, puzzling and powerful scenes combined for an exciting and thrilling film.

If you haven't read the books, you'll likely be confused, but it's still worth it to see it. As an avid Harry Potter fan, it makes me already excited for the 7th movie(s).

I didn't like it, didn't hate it.

Haven't read the book in 2 years, but (in white)

How the hell can they just cut out the battle at Hogwarts at the end? Why not just cut out the Titanic sinking, or the battle with the Queen Alien in Aliens?? That whole battle was part of the climax, and instead all you get is freaking Death Eaters walking all around Hogwarts unmolested??? Instead of that battle, they have that stupid "attack" on the Burrow? Good god.
I also don't like how they handled Snape - in the book it had people guessing if he was good or not, in the movie you could see how he didn't want to do it, and everyone knows he's a good guy.

I have seen the movie and have nothing to say about it except...

I'd still tap Emma Watson (Hermione)... and Bonnie Wright (Ginny Weasley)... and Evanna Lynch(Luna Lovegood)...

Great thing is... They are no longer jailbait so I don't feel like a dirty old man now (even though I'm only 27.)
