While not one of the extremely angry people was disapointed when I heard about the delay. To be honest hadn't been keeping track so closely that I knew the exact release date but knew it wasn't too far away. If they are just moving it to next summer to make more money that's annoying. I'd be going in November that's for certain as would many people. Release the movies when your ready and don't pull stunts like this.

And by age 16, in a mixed private school, are you seriously telling me that in everyday life there aren't boys and girls with various crushes and wanting their first kisses in your school? (or anyone else’s) Yes there's a big bad after the entire wizarding community, but alike the threats of terrorism, or minor ones of muggings, murders, rapes (and a million other things) That doesn't mean we stop going out to the streets, does it? That doesn't mean we stop our lives regardless of all the badness, does it? It's the same perspective in that, the kids still had to do their exams, still had to attend classes, they kept as many events running as normal (that included the ball in the 5th one) and Americans probably know this better than us, but ideally it'll be nice to go with someone to the Prom than go alone. Also by age 15/16, I'm sure regardless of life, many teens will have crushes or an eye on someone they like, or other emotional hang ups. The most heard complaint that we got about book 5 in the UK when it came out was 'man... harry is really moody now' (Me: well yeah... he's 15, he only has to defend his life every year, he aparently as a kid got rid of the big bad as a baby and has this weird reputation and expentance to somehow foil Voldermort again, can't put smiles on anyone's face if they had to deal with that.) The teen drama is an element I (personally) saw Rowling incorporate into her stories as a nice dimension to remind us that, yes they know magic and aren't 'muggles' per se, but they're all still humans and very much teenagers, with the same set of hormones as the rest of us. So I'm glad she brought it, like i said, I’m surprised nothing much happened before it seeing as they're British kids xD As for further reasoning into why Warner decided to push until July: Quote:

So decided to buy the ticket on fri for next wed and pick the best seat anyways xD Aaaand this was the subtitle version (hurray) xD (yes.. dubbed versions are also playing) ><;;; Would have loved to be watching it this very moment, but the queues for today were insane, so heh not happening.. PS: Moderator-san, could you amend the thread title for July 2009, since it didn't quite make it last year

(I'll use it for Naruto and 20C boys when they come out over the next few weeks) That and it's nice to not be in an incredibly packed out theatre room, so hopefully the die hard fans would have seen it a thousand times within the first week ^^

If I was still an 11 year old boy, I'd be bursting in my seat waiting to go to the movies. But I'm not 11 anymore. But I will admit the series has a great storyline and characters to it, and were enjoyable books/movies. Plus it makes money for everyone involved in it (and I'm not involved in it, unfortunately). And anyone remember this?
SNA-*shot* Don't want to spoil anything lol. |

I find it interesting that the movies really can't stand separately from the books anymore (they have to slice and cut simply too much of the plot out). The movies (especially the last two or three) end up being a "Favorite Moments Visualized" of the books.
They're great to watch but there's so much missing and much that leaves a 'wtf?' if you haven't read the books.

Although I personally think Harry Potter took a major dive after the fourth book, I just think that it's impossible to properly adapt them for a single two hour film. So I agree with Vexx. I'm not really an intense fan of the series, but I do think there is something valuable in the (earlier, at least) books and that it's completely lost when translated to film. But even then, I don't think any director has ever really grasped the essence of the book or the characters. Ron and Dumbledore are two characters who have not had good treatment by filmmakers.
