YOU GUYS

Jul 11, 2007 03:08

Just got back from the 12:01 am showing of Harry Potter: OotP tonight this morning.

Dude.

You guys.

YOU GUYS.

DUDE.

They keep upping the gay ante with each progressing movie. For serious. Or maybe it was just sitting next to burg3r, which meant both nonstop homoerotic commentary and the smell of expensive theater hot dog ( Read more... )

TESTIFY!!! WOOOOO!!!

This movie had copious amounts of GAY all over the place, and I loved it. All that JKR is purposefully shaking out of the books by force, the movie directors are adding back twofold.

OH THE LUPIN/SIRIUS/HARRY THREE-SHOT FAMILY PORTRAIT. <3___<3 Harry has two Godfathers. *sniffle*

Young!Snape IS cute.

I think they very nicely captured Tortured!Emo!Harry, because several times in the first hour I was saying to myself "now Harry's going to go listen to Linkin Park and cut himself. CAUSE HE'S ONE STEP CLOSER TO THE EDGE! AND HE'S ABOUT TO BREAK!"

*laughing ass off* Oh emo!Harry. You know, much as he was (accurately) all up in everyone's grill about "what about ME and it's MY fault and I'M the one and ME and ME and ME ME ME ME ME!" I was surprised that the movie wasn't saturated in the angst. Leaving out his awkward and depressing date with Cho probably helped. I'm sure the director realized that there were more important, shiny things to be examined in the movie. I sort of forgot that there were some pretty interesting elements of OotP, which the new director brought out really well. I hope he's doing the next one!

Oh man, now I really wanna watch, but it sounds dumb watching alone XD;

You could come with us to San Francisco next week! It'll be on a big big screen with the last half hour (I think) in 3D! I'm trying to see if frog_vamp is interested.

The movie was a general "meh" for me. It had its good moments, but the bad ones were pretty abundant.

ALSO, I TRIED TO CALL YOU, BUT YOU TURNED OFF YOUR PHONE TO AVOID ME SO I WEPT FOR HOURS.

How can you be so unaffected by the shiny?? You're a freaking ROCK O_O

I DID NO SUCH THING, MY PHONE WAS ON ALL DAY, AWAITING THE CALL THAT NEVER CAME BECAUSE YOU HATE MEEEE! ME ME ME ME ME! I'M HARRY!

I liked some of it! The plot was a bit too condensed for my liking, and a lot of the flashier moments I was expecting (Fred and George's exit, or Dumbledore and Voldemort's duel) weren't that good. I was disappointed.

I liked the Death Eaters, for the most part, for reasons you can probably imagine. And the brief, homoerotic James/Snape thing. *Is not completely unaffected* :D

IF LIFE IS SO FAIR, THEN WHY DO ROSES HAVE THORNS?? :*(

Oh no no, that wasn't the war at all. Events only just start being put in motion in the story after OotP, with both sides sniping at the other, but definitely no definitive battle yet--that'll be in the very last book/movie.

And yes, in the book, the thestrals are invisible to everyone else except Luna and Harry. So when the others were riding them, they could only feel them, but not see. The audience, of course, had to be able to see them.
