Welcome to Gaia! ::

I saw that too, and loved it! But i just gotta write one little review, my lil opnion here. tell me what you think, i told a couple of my friends this the other day and they agreed but im curious as to what your opnions are.

Now, Voldemort kinda toyed around with harry in deathly hallows part 2. he tied him up and asked him "why do you live" and harry replied because i have something worth living for. we saw that in all the trailers and stuff, it's known that this happens. its known he's tied up, since if you look he certainly has some black velvety thin stings all wrapped around him. Personally, i don't like this scene as an addition. at all. I LOVED the snape addition scene, where he was standing infront of the Potter house, because that was likely to happen. Snape probably visited the potter house because of lily at some point in his life, we know he visted grimmauld place. But what really bugs me about this new harry/voldemort scene fight is how much of a filler it really is.

Don't get me wrong, i love a good fight between the forces of good and evil. love all harry/voldemort fights i've seen so far, they've been really moving. But in deathly hallows, voldemort wanted it FINISHED. he wanted harry dead. I highly doubt voldemort would sit around on a tower toying with harry and torturing him, if he wanted him dead so badly. after all, harry was at voldemorts mercy in the forest. voldemort could have just as easily tied him up then and used the cruciatus curse for a bit of fun. but he didn't. as lupin said when he came out of the ressurection stone, he wants it finished. voldemort wanted the fight over. I'm not saying i don't think this fight scene will be amazing, that torturing harry won't be pretty awesome, but that doesn't mean its NECESSARY. harry and voldemort both wanted the fight over. I doubt either of them would hang around at the top of a tower when Voldemort is mortal. He wouldn't give harry the chance to destroy him, now that he knew he actually COULD be destroyed. Anyways, I just love the Snape scene 10x more because it was something snape probably would have done, a touching moment. Not just more fight for the fun of it.

Also, the whole dance between Harry and Hermione, as well as the scene with the snatcher smelling hermione's perfume...it was all..kinda filler. it wasn't necessary. and although it may have been a good scene, i was frustrated because they took out more important scenes. half the people in the movie theater i was in were like..where the heck did that mirror even come from, since if you hadn't read the book, you wouldn't have known about sirius giving it to harry. And they never even explained that snape was the one who passed the prohecy onto Voldemort, and hermione never even touched Phineas's portrait, so how could Snape have known they were in the forest of dean? These simple little and CRUCIAl points were taken out of the movies entirely, which infuriates me. I am in NO way saying that the new fight scene between harry and voldemort won't be good, but it isn't necessary, and their wands connecting in the end, if you see the first trailer, it doesnt even make sense! how could their wands connect when they now have different cores! they didn't connect in the book, darnnit! ughhh.

Anyways, I know I'm ranting XD But it just bothers me to see such important little points like these removed from a story, and such unnecessary and fairly large scenes added in. I don't mind someone rebuilding off of a book that exists, just adding or extending a few more of the interesting scenes in the movie. But replacing important points altogether is terrible. Especially in harry potter- the greatest books ever. It's one thing to add a fight scene, but if you have to or choose to remove a big part of the story to do it, then it's not going to be as good as it can be. Sure, all the details may add up to quite some time and film. But i rather see 3 good deathly hallow parts, where everything is explained, than two deathly hallow parts where they cut some seriously good stuff.

exactly! i really didn't like the 6th XD but honestly, i dont mind some added stuff, but certain things you just CANT take away without ruining the whole story.

Sorry XD i just wanted your opnion biggrin
, and he did find out in the book tho, that his horcruxes were gone, when he killed those goblins and all at gringotts, he traveled around, saw it missing in the gaunt house and in the cave, he knew he didnt have many more. i mean, im not saying he wouldnt toy with him at ALL, but not as much as it looks like he is going to be doing in the 8th movie.

Yea the dancing thing was really cheesy...i mean, i didnt mind the fade-outs, that doesnt really bug me that much since it's not a question of plot, but yea fade-outs were a bit overdone.
No question about it, origional dumbledore was better.
So true! It's so good, but still not as good as it could be.
I don't think he was in the burrow, i heard on mugglenet they got fred's death right at least. but i am so frustrated that they may mess up snape's death. i mean, that was probably the best death in the whole book! Not that i like deaths..it was just very well written.

Ian would have made a wonderful Dumbledore! I find Gandalf and Dumbledore rather similar in more than one respect, and I do believe Rowling was not very original with her description and portrayal of the character, unfortunately. And I know that Richard died, why else would they have cast another? I just think they could have picked a better-suited man for the job. For instance, in the Goblet of Fire, what the hell...? Dumbledore in the book was calm and collected, and simply asked Harry if he put his name in. However, the movie portrayed Dumbledore as being absolutely furious about the whole situation.



This goes for both Sing and Telly; yes Voldemort flipped when he found out about the Hufflepuff cup but I do not think he was fully aware of the situation at hand. He kept Nagini close, but there were, if you recall, a few horcruxes he did not check.

Also, although the dancing was cheesy I must also agree with Telly in the sense that it showed Harry really was only a friend to Hermione, but a very good friend.
