Harry Potter (No Spoilers) Saw Harry Potter OotP at the midnight show Tuesday night / Wednesday morning. I liked it, a lot, even though it was shorter than I might have hoped for. I would have made the movie like, 11 hours long.
They managed to cover all the high points from the book, only omitting a few things that I would like to think are vital in later books (a silver locket, which should be in Book 7, perhaps?). They did manage to include my favorite line from the book, even though it wasn't particularly important to the plot, which made me happy.
One nitpick, and then I'll stop... they repeatedly used a spell from Half-Blood Prince. Which doesn't make sense, because Harry et al. couldn't have learned that spell until next year. (I'm enough of a dork that this actually pulled me out of the movie).
Anyway, overall, I'd give it 4.5 out of 5. Would have been a 5, if it was a little longer, and if they had included the damn silver locket.
This is my brain..... in part, at least.
