    Harry Potter 3

    Saw it late last night and i have to say it was awesome, there was so much humour in there too, just made me kill myself with laughter. The wombing willow knocking a bluebird for 6 was hilarious hehehe.

    But it was absolute genius, and will probably have to see it again

    I think I will save myself the misfortune of watching this, I don't see the point personally as all the Harry Potters are the same, he get's up, see's his friends, causes crap, does some magic saves the day, its the same setup everytime I am bias though I hate Harry Potter and would enjoy disposing of him with a huge rusty spike

    It was a good film, but WHY do people take babies into a cinema?

    The next film should be interesting as the book was a lot longer than the others so far, I will be interested to see how they fit all the action into a film and what they leave out.

    That'd be a good thing IMHO - can't stand the books - mind you couldn't stand the first two films either.....

    Now go away before I taunt you a second time.

    I won't be seeing this or any of its sequels tbh, like big brother harry potter is just something that so overexposed and hyped it just annoys me

    I really enjoyed it, but to me it played like 'selected scenes from...' I can't imagine someone who hasn't read the book being able to follow the plot, let alone someone who hasn't seen the other films. I do think it was better directed though than the other films though, very good pacing and some nice touches.

    The harry potter films reminded me of posh kids who used to boast about how many harry potter books they owned. Having watched the films, i see these same kids portrayed in the movie. How queer.

    harry potter needs to die. those accents really get on my nerves.

    Harry Potter is everything I hated about primary school.

    Signatures are stupid

    I thought it was brilliant!

    A lot more mature and frankly a country mile ahead of the first two - I haven't read any of the books and I was able to pick up the story fairly well. Wouldn't exactly describe it as the horror fest some people are making it out to be (it was hardly going to be that scary but it is definately a step in the right direction.

    Best actor out of the whole lot I think has to be the guy who plays Ron, Rupert Grint. Great expressions, timing and can be quite funny! Potential chemistry between him and Hermione (Emma Watson) is an interesting if very slight inclusion.

    Go see it! Contrary to popular belief it isn't rubbish!

    i saw it today, best film out the three, was a joy to watch.

    one thing i noticed the new director had them in casual clothes rather than robes like the first two. the map was explained very well either, with harrys dad (prongs - the stag), peter (wormtail - the rat), and sirius (padfoot - the dog) all changing into animals to hang out with Lupin (mooney - werewolf), when he changed on the full moon.

    was good - but i didn't really get it - sirius black was a baddie, and wanted to kill potter, *spoiler* then all of a sudden, him and wolfie didn't want to kill him...

    also i thought sirius black was on the side of "you know who" (the baddie that nobody mentions) so why would he suddenly be "la de dah i'm so nice..."

    ?

    Looks like you missed the point...

    SERIOUS SPOILER!
    Warning!


    Sirius wasn't the baddie he was framed! Peter Pederingdew or whatever you call him sold out James Potter for yer man. Even Dumbledore knew he wasn't the bad guy but knew he couldn't prove it in time to save him hence why they went back in time.
    Sirius was able to escape again because of the time travelling hence saving him from death.
