Ron: "What was it like?"
Harry: "Wet."
Entire theatre: "ewwwwwwwww"
Luna was AMAZING. The girl they got to play her was fabulous, and she was just great.
I do wish that the Weasley's grand exit would have involved the swamp... but what they did TOTALLY sufficed
Bellatrix was fucking creeeeepy as all get out.
And the kiss scene was kind of awkward... but I love the whole 'how was it?' 'wet' thing... I'll probably put it in my facebook.
Overall, fabulous movie. I can't wait to see it again and again. I'm even MORE pumped for the book next weekend... its actually very bittersweet...
edit: had to change a little so i don't ruin stuff!

i have to agree exactly with you on those, me and my sister are setting up a spot right in front of borders at 8:30 and sit there and play games untill they start selling the books then im not gunna sleep till its done, oh and i dont know if i should be atalked about here its about what i think will happen in the book but i feel like it might spoil something even if i dont even know
Got it covered for you, Allie love. From our trip in February!
Oh what the hey, let's put Adam's photo in as well.
Adam's hand thing... sheer genius. I was trying to squish my face into the wall but it didn't have quite the same effect....
I love Harry Potter. I can't even lie about it. It's a magical world.
(Driving back from the theatre last night, my friends and I were tired and giddy. A police put on his siren behind us and, luckily, did not pull us over. After, we thought up what we would have said IF he had pulled us over, namely: "I'm sorry officer. We've just returned from a land of magic" or "EXPECTO PATRONUS!")
Come live here then. I'll take you there everyday...

soooo cool!!!
P.S. The woman playing Dolores Umbridge was AMAAAAZING. She was fucking scary. Also, new design of the dementors? A+

yelling "expecto patronus" would be an awesome thing to do if you wanted to sleep at the police station!! still, so funny
Also the audience in my theater really sucked, but I guess that's what I get for not going to the midnight showing.
10 DAYS TIL THE BOOK!!!!
FOR SIRIUS! (sorry, I really couldn't help myself)
Truth and truth

Oh I totally forgot about Bellatrix. She was pretty bad-ass. All of the new characters were really well cast. Cho was a little too dazed-looking for my taste. I always imagined her as more troubled (in terms that, I don't know, her boyfriend was killed by Voldermort). She just seemed kind of shallow.
Really? I thought these dementors were a lot more accurate in terms of how i pictured them. The others looked a little too Halloween-y for my taste, whereas these were just something that would definitely give me nightmares.
Holy shit only 10 days.
The theatre was full of crazies and I think that was the best part.
I'm at work and half-asleep whoooooo.
I think I'm in love with Luna Lovegood. Srsly. She was the best person in the entire movie.
My only couple of qualms:
1) What the fuck was with all the montages of sweaty Harry Potter writhing about in bed? I think, I don't know, two would have gotten the point across.
2) The Kiss. I think there were three different camera pans over them smoochin' Aaaaaawkward.
Other than that, totally worth it.

It was sooo good!! omg i've never been so happy with a harry potter movie!! I really love it!! I think this is the first time theyve had a director who had actually read the books and/or enjoyed them. Almost everything was exactly how i imagined it! Oooo and the Ron/Hermione sexual tensions was fantastic! the whole cinema was "oooh"ing and whooping. aaawwww it was just so good. the characters were cast perfectly, Hermione was talking like a normal person and Harry was ACTING!
I can't believe the reviews it's getting though. This one man said it was ok but it would have been better with more Helena Bonham Carter, he seriously wanted them to change the entire plot so she could be in it more. The fool only gave it 2 stars (when he gave rocky balboa 4.5), i bet he hasnt even read the books!!
I agree it didnt drag on like others have and even though it moved really quickly nothing too vital was left out. David Yates is a champ!!
They ruined Tonks! No words. And Mrs. Figg... wtf.
They cut out all the Quidditch stuff. =( WEASLEY IS OUR KING!
LUNA LOVEGOOD WAS AWESOME. Perfect. Also Umbridge. And Bellatrix! AMAZING!
That one scene with James, Sirius, Snape, and Lily as kids... I wish it was longer. That was my most favorite scene of all the of the books combined... so serious letdown.
A lot of things were different than what I pictured... the first 20 minutes of the book just pissed me off big time. But the rest of it was really good.
Too much Cho. Not cool. She's not the one who told on the club. But whyyyyy did they cut out Cho and Harry's date? That was so funny in the book! The whole Ron/Hermione tension was great.
Not enough Sirius! Sirius has always been my favorite character... there wasn't a lot about the Order in general. No mindless cleaning and crazy antics. But I guess they had to cut out all the fun to fit all the important stuff in.
YAY! Dumbledore was good, too. First time I've appreciated the new guy.
Also, great montages. LOVE LOVE LOVED them all.
It wasn't my favorite of the series, but it was definitely second.
we were very sneaky, bought tickets for the 6:00 which wasn't sold out, then realized all our other friensd were going to the 7:00, and so @ like, 6:30 we went up to Customer Service and were like, "Wahhh you gave us the wrong tickets we asked for 7:00" so they were super awesome and changed our tickets for the 7:00 one which was completely sold out by that point.
haha and every time something really good happened we would start a cheer and it would spread through the whole theater <3 I love my friends.
and I liked it a ton.. I agree w/ most of what's been said already.
I thought a lot the dialogue was really clever and nothing was overdone.. which is absolutely amazing cause it must have been really hard to do.
I also REALLY liked how they didn't make Harry THAT angsty... like, it was mostly internal and they didn't show it so much, which I thought was well done because too much angst and it would have been like evil-Peter in Spiderman 3 hahaha... however, we still burst out laughing at all the really angsty parts, esp. "I just feel so angry" hehe
Luna and the twins are my heroes... fer serious.
