I have now seen this movie 3 times: Once at midnight, once at Azkatraz's midnight showing, and once with my sister who did not want to go and see it haha. Before the midnight showing, I had read up to page 500 and the morning of Azkatraz's showing I had finished the book, the 3rd time was 2 weeks after reading it. Each time I loved it more and more. My thoughts:
Positives:
-EXACT QUOTES FTW!!! "You can't break an unbreakable vow," the song Hagrid and Slughorn sing, kjsdfhsdkjgdsj it was brilliant. I felt like I had jumped into the book which is what the movies SHOULD feel like! For the first time, I can view the movies and books as the same series instead of two different stories in order to not kill myself.
-Evanna Lynch. My Luna <3 All her randomness just reminds me how much I adore Luna and what her character adds to the story.
-Train scene. It was different, but it worked amazingly. Tonks would have made more sense but all was forgiven for me when Luna started talking and just being Luna. "I am your friend Luna." "That'e nice."
-Felixxxxxxx just beyond words brilliant. This whole scene in particular just felt like the book. Everything was just perfect and hilarious and jksgfgf I adore this scene <3
-The memories were done very well. Tom Riddle was a creepy child/teen and it was just brilliant to see. Would have liked the others but I guess you can't have everything *shrugs.* The Gaunts would have really been nice though...
-Ron/Hermione stuff. The movies have totally seemed like Harry/Hermione for me up until this point so it was nice seeing the shift. The awkward teenage hormones were hilarious XD
-Draco. Nuff said.
-Fred and George's quick joke in the joke shop of telling Ron it was 10 galleons when he said I'm your brother. That's just sooo them and jfggsd they were in for like 2.5 seconds of the movie but, for me, this one line made it feel like they were in for much longer because it was just such a great moment that it stuck.
More is good, but I'm going nuts so Negatives:
-Flitwick? "Urgent choir practice." Wtf? I have never understood this choir thing and it was just really odd.
-Why the heck did Hermione get drunk off of butterbeer? And how did everyone just have basically no reaction to Katie? Why wasn't Leanne upset when talking to McGonagall? Just what? This scene wasn't really enough for me...
-Ginny was such a creeper. Why did she TIE HIS SHOES?! Throughout Azkatraz everyone kept making random jokes about how hot that was and it was hilarious. These jokes are the only reason this scene doesn't make me kill myself.
-Harry just has no idea about the otehr horcruxes? He's just gonna guess, is he? That'll be interesting...
-HI, ELDER WAND! HOW CONVENIENT OF YOU TO JUST BE SITTING ONTOP OF THE DESK! VOLDEMORT WILL BE THRILLED THAT HIS WORK IS DONE FOR HIM =D
-Train scene with creepy girl hitting on Harry? Awkwarddddddd.
-Dumbledore telling the ENTIRE SCHOOL about Tom. That just irked me...
I'm going to stop now before I continue listing things for the next 3 hours lol

lol when ginny tied his shoes i was like "wtf, is she like his bitch?" like the old fashioned wives. whatever. i still can't get over "i can hide in here too, if you'd like"
ReplyDeleteand omg. "well, you can't break an unbreakable vow" "i've figured that out myself, funnily enough" was funny in both the movie and the book! i was so happy!
when did someone hit on harry in a train?
maybe they were going to bury the elder wand later, i mean, we didn't see the funeral. i guess they just wanted to make it seem like he was still there until they buried him and oh my god i'm acting like it's real.
you read everything else of my reaction already
Hey, I just found your blog through hayleyghoover's and read a few of your posts. I really like them, so I'm going to follow you...
ReplyDeletemyeah, the point of this comment was to introduce myself and not be creepy, but I think I ruined it by stating blatantly that I was going to follow you. Meh.
I'm anda, by the way. The harry/ginny shoe tying scene killed me as well, don't worry.
