I loved Snape in that goofy hat and wrap! And a skirt, too! :lol:

In my opinion, the new Dumbledore looks really good! Of course, I'll have to see the whole movie to judge if he's better than Richard Harris. :)

Also, what the heck is up with the big "something wicked this way comes" theme? That's Shakespeare (the three witches from Macbeth), not even J.K. Rowling material! :P The chorus of students is odd too - I don't remember that from the book.

The overall tones in the three movies seem to have gone from golden to green to gray (you'll understand what I mean by the gray if you watch the teaser trailer). For example, the first movie was more happy and Gryffindor-centered, and then the second film came along with the VHS/DVD packaging being green and more Slytherin-like. Also, the lighting in 2 was so much darker than in 1, so now to get it darker for 3, they have to remove color. This way it seems like even more evil is settling into the movie because it's dark and colorless, and, as many book-readers know, the plots keep getting scarier and scarier. :)

I still haven't seen the 2nd one :(

And I have to disagree with this:

Hollywood.com visited the Prisoner of Azkaban set at London's Leavesdon studios


I live in Leavesden and it's not in London!

I get to see the top of the Knightbus when I drive to work every day :)
Open your eyes to nights and days, you close them up and float away
and somehow inbetween you've got to master lying to yourself
you back the cause, get out of school, you get a job, the job gets you
and somehow every day you end up serving somebody else
now if that ain't panic that you're feeling, then you damn well better start
you can drive it into that head of yours with the hammer in your heart.


And it's alriiiiiiiight now, take the world and make it yours again.

I love it. Definitely very promising. I already had more faith in Cuaron than I had on Chris Columbus, now there's an actual reason for that faith. Sirius looks awesome, especially in the Wanted posters. I love the way he's laughing and looking around and just seeming insane.

My only complaint is Lupin. He looks horrible. He's only in it for a split second or so (I had to pause it to see him), but he looks awful. I don't really know how to describe it, but it's just so... Not Lupin. Meh.

sirius and lupin look terrible.
ack.

I am not happy about the whole thing.
Everything was better when it was just the books. The chamber of secrets sucked in my opinion. They took out some of my favorite parts (like the Death Day Party!!!) and chopped them out. Now I have incredibly low expectations for the next one and so if its good, I'll tell you - but I can't say I'm excited.

Goodbye you liar,
Well you sipped from the cup but you don't own up to anything
Then you think you will inspire
Take apart your head
(and I wish I could inspire)
Take apart your demons, then you add it to the list.

Man, I like the movies for different reasons than the books. It's all good.

I've only seen the first one in french, and even that I was forced to. I refuse to see the second one, and I doubt I'll see the any others to come. :uh:

Nah, I liked the books (i read the first three in grade 6 i think) but the movies are just too much for me. They should of left them as books. Like Holes. Seriously, someone should inflict some bodily harm upon whoever made that.
