HP 7, P1

[mijan]

Just got back from watching Deathly Hallows, Part 1.  NO SPOILERS, but the following general reactions to the movie as a whole:

- Best STORYTELLING of any of the movies.
- OMG, they went there (repeatedly), and didn't hold back.
- This is NOT a children's movie, and they make NO attempt to sugar-coat it.
- Yes, there was "camping," but the film kept

i can think of two possible "theres" for "THEY WENT THERE"

hint me at which you mean? =P

[mijan]

If you can think of a "there," and it was in the book, the answer is yes.

[annulvapore]

"and it was in the book"

yes, i understand now =P

[ariadneelda]

I agree with everything. :)

I agree so, so much. As I told the friend that stood in line for five hours with me, in a whooping yell as soon as the credits rolled--THEY FINALLY GOT IT RIGHT.

If this is the way nearly half my life comes to a close, at least I finally feel like it is going to get the send-off it deserves.

Probably gonna see it again tomorrow night, not gonna lie.

Yeah, if they finish the second half of this book with an equally well-made, compelling movie, then I'll be delighted to close this chapter of my life on such a high note. I'd stopped looking forward to the movies because they had nothing good to offer. I'm glad they've finally gotten it right. Too bad they didn't figure it out sooner.

I'm going to see it again, probably tonight, because my wife hasn't seen it yet. :D

And Iiiiii've....

...gotta wait until the 30th. ::sadtear::

Nice to hear good things about it, though. :D

[mijan]

I'm sorry that you have to wait so long! But yes, it will be worth it. I promise. :D

Me, too. Loved it!
