Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix

I thought it funny that the film reviewer on the radio this morning said "While the 3rd movie is by far the best movie, this is a decent second."

That should illustrate why movies are made for the mainstream audience and not for fanboys.

I might agree with him...as movies go. From a pure entertainment value of them, three and five have it, IMO.

One and Five are the better adaptations.

Do they ever...in the theater when Harry was shown in the opening scene, the fangirls were all a'twitter with gasps and ooooohhh...

I didn't know Daniel Radcliffe was officially a "sex symbol" now, but doing nude stage plays must have done wonders for his groupie base (and it has done wonders for his acting).

Did you seem him in Extras? Really funny. He was also good as David Copperfield when he was little.

No, hadn't seen those. Only seen him in Potter....in which he has really improved.

You should watch Extras. Very good.

Don't watch with the kids. Give it time. Kate Winslet and Ian McKellan episodes are great.

 

[D-Dogg]

HBO, right?

Yep. One famous guest each episode. Ricky Gervais and Whathisname MErchant from the BBC Office show star.

I thought the 2nd was very good to in doing that. What did you not like from it that you thought it could be better like 1 and 5?

I don't know...number two just doesn't have a lot of staying power with me. It was good, but it also wasn't one of my more favorite books.

Radcliffe was hilarious in Extras. Remember the dining trailer? OMG, that was hilarious! What made it funnier was Dame Diana Rigg (who played Emma Peel in the old 60s Avengers TV show).

classic scene. classic. Is that the episode he knee'ed the midget?

Yeah, Warwick Davis. That was great too. The whole thing about the normal sized woman dating a dwarf was uncomfortably great. And Daniel Radcliffe hitting on Maggie and getting her in trouble with his mom...

Maggie stole scenes from Ricky G. That doesn't seem easy to do.

Yeah that happened in both seasons of Extras.

Well, I just got back from seeing it, and I absolutely loved it. It's the most faithful to the book since the first movie. It left a lot out, obviously, but the stuff that was in there was very much from the book. The acting is obviously better as well. It certainly had a more epic feel to it, which is different than the 3rd movie (my favorite), which is much more intimate.

Totally agree with you Chaplin...my favorite so far I think. I loved all of it.

 

[Nasser22]

What was so unfaithful to the book in the 2nd movie? I've heard that a couple times here, but I don't remember what they did differently?

The 2nd one was pretty good as well.

Even Grawp? That's the only thing I was unhappy with that they showed in the movie. Too "cute" IMO.

I thought his character design was a bit off, reminded me of the troll from the first movie.
