GoF Squee!

Nov 19, 2005 23:32

So, ridicu_liz and I went to GoF tonight with 9 other of our friends. We managed to get the bulk of the back row to ourselves, which RULED!!

And now.....

SQUEE!! SQUEE!! SQUEE!!

I think this is my favorite movie yet, despite PoA being my favorite book. Although many small details that were left out, this movie really kept with the spirit of the book and it seemed like non-stop action throughout. And the tone is dark and ends very somberly - like the book.

Likes:
1) Dragons are cool - wickedly done scene.
2) LOVE the twins - but Fred and George are personal favorites. Weasley men always get the best lines.
3) Neville is adorable.
4) Ralph Fiennes makes an outstanding Voldemort. (I love him - one of my fave actors).
5) David Tennant (Barty, Jr.) - OK, I get the fangirling now. Also liked how he did the slither tongue thing to his dad. Sadly, Dad's recognition got him killed.
6) Dragon atop the tower roof at Hogwarts. It looks like it should be saying "MINE"!!
7) Fred's look to Ron after he asked Angelina to the ball.
8) Moody's face to McGonagall and Moody's secret "Go that way" point to Harry when he entered the maze.

Dislikes:
1) Not enough Tom Felton.
2) Lava Sirius - not what I pictured a floo call to be. EVER.
3) Hate the pronounciation of "Accio". It's not how Jim Dale says it in the audio books.
4) Harry's eyebrows - WTF?
5) I think we needed the veela at the World Cup. Then the connection could have been made to Fleur and then Ron's asking her to the Yule ball would be explained.

OMG!!!
1) The ferret scene - the ferret ends up in Crabbely's pants and Goyle goes to grab it out of there. Goyle: Hey you ferret!! Get out, Crabbely's MINE!!
2) Cedric giving Harry the skinny on the prefects bathroom. SWORE Cedric was coming on to him....
3) Ron/Krum - I think this is Ron's OTP in his mind. Ginny definitely made the call on that one!
4) Is it just me, or was Myrtle totally giving Harry a lapdance in the prefect's bathroom?
5) Cedric and his Hufflepuff buddies are just a LITTLE too good of friends, eh?

And, I've already bought tickets to go see it again tomorrow afternoon!! :D

Have a great weekend all!

liz, pals, hp
