I was just like 'Yep, that's it, I love Hermione'. And Harry's hair is fabulous, spot-on. Ron's too, actually. I'm not anticipating Goblet-of-Fire hairstyles for either of them. But then again, there's David Tennant and Robert Pattinson.Mettehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08094234448852441633noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-219108510988412397.post-66768740302596917512014-02-27T15:06:52.407+01:002014-02-27T15:06:52.407+01:00Man, why couldn't they keep Harry's hair t...Man, why couldn't they keep Harry's hair this way for the rest of the movies?

I think it's a great story in the books, not very dark yet but just enough of fun and adventure and that makes a good material for the movie. Before it was all too light, to childish, and after, well with the forth one pretty much tearing me apart emotionally, I would say this is my favorite ever Potter movie!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-219108510988412397.post-15700319152750699102014-02-23T12:20:16.219+01:002014-02-23T12:20:16.219+01:00To be fair, I love the David Yates films (5-8).

So I'm as objective a critic as I strie to be? (hahah, who am I kidding).<br /><br />Yeah, Daniel Radcliffe isn't the best actor of our times but he does improve a lot and I think he has grown into a decent one. Anyway, I love him as a person which is enough. It's true that the emphasis is more on Hermione than Ron, which continues in the following films. One of my biggest issues with the film series. <br /><br />Hermione's clothes, ok. I must say I looooooved them when I was younger and I just wanted to be like her, 100%. She also wears a lot of more 'Hermione-ish' clothes in this one, doesn't she? But that's before the long ending. I was very mad about the Yule gown too, although I loved it, but just the fact that they changed it. The dark blue one of my imagination is so much prettier - but we'll get to that next month. <br /><br />Hah, that's weird, but sounds kinda familiar to be honest. *YouTubing that right now*Mettehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08094234448852441633noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-219108510988412397.post-618548224104873322014-02-22T19:08:51.178+01:002014-02-22T19:08:51.178+01:00Hahah, ok Nick, you have a right to your own opini...Hahah, ok Nick, you have a right to your own opinion. Interesting, I've never met anyone who hates this film or the following ones that much, most people just tend to dislike the epilogue of the 8th film and either parts or all of the first two films. I'll head right over to your article then... (because I do agree that a lot of important parts were left out of the films).Mettehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08094234448852441633noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-219108510988412397.post-81649460095416927352014-02-22T19:06:54.446+01:002014-02-22T19:06:54.446+01:00Cool, I'm happy you're pleased.

You're right, the parents did have a very interesting life and so did everyone else who lived at that time. It's a bit sad that the new films won't focus on that...<br /><br />I think Snape was in that scene in the film, but I'm not sure. It's so easy to confuse book and film.Mettehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08094234448852441633noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-219108510988412397.post-39818390979893883162014-02-21T20:03:57.573+01:002014-02-21T20:03:57.573+01:00I love this post.

I'm totally in the minority here, but Prisoner of Azkaban is one of my least favorite Potter movies. I loved the darker tone, and of course Snape's "Turn to page 394" but a lot of other things didn't work for me. Daniel Radcliffe's acting was awful, especially in that scene where he finds out Peter Pettigrew betrayed his parents. (But like you said, they improved)<br />Then there was the fact that Cuaron gave most of Ron's lines from the book to Hermione. And my biggest (and lamest) pet peeve - Hermione's pink hoodie and rainbow belt. Hermione wore nothing but pink after this movie and I never felt that was very 'Hermione-ish" at all. They even changed her Yule Ball gown to pink, and I blame this movie.<br /><br />I also have a very stupid memory of a P. Diddy interview where he was laughing when he heard a character was named 'Sirius Black.' I don't know why that always comes to mind. lol<br />Brittani Burnhamhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07975067259283007280noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-219108510988412397.post-92138545628034920762014-02-21T13:49:10.004+01:002014-02-21T13:49:10.004+01:00Nooope. Terrible terrible terrible terrible terrib...Nooope. Terrible terrible terrible terrible terrible terrible terrible terrible terrible terrible terrible terrible TERRIBLE adaptation. Cuaron has good style, but he's almost solely responsible for almost every single bad thing that happened in the film series from this point forward. It seems every time I write an article on the Harry Potter films, it turns into a PoA-hating, Cuaron-bashing RAR-fest. It not only creates for itself a number of plot holes in its own film, but also sets up a number of plot holes for the later films. He also cuts out the entire purpose for the book's existence, trimming down on why the book was even written into the series in the first place and expanding on more unimportant matters. This movie annoys me to no end. I can give an adaptation leeway if it changes a lot but it stays true to the heart of a story and keeps in what's important. But I can't forgive an adaptation that ignores the purpose and removes the heart and makes it a purely aesthetic charm, which is exactly what PoA does. To be fair, Goblet of Fire is technically a worse all-around adaptation, but I ultimately forgive it because the graveyard scene (the purpose of the book) is so well done.

I love that little taste we get of harry's parents' generation, I always wished there was more about that. I ended up reading fan fiction for the first time in my life, just to read more about them!<br /><br />And the book was one that I enjoyed reading (although from that point on, I'd enjoy every HP book!), and I especially remember a scene that I think wasn't in the film... I can't remember the specifics, I know it's towards the end of the book but I can't find the page. Anyway, Snape is talking to Harry, trying to get information, and he says something like "spill it Potter". I'm not sure of the correct translation to english, but in portuguese it's written "vomit" and I used to find that hilarious. <br /><br />Ooh I found it! It's when Fudge, Snape and Dumbledore burst into the infirmary. I remember Dumbledore saying some of these lines in the film, but I can't remember Snape being there... but it's possible that memory fails me.
