Order of the Phoenix
Jul. 30th, 2007 09:23 pmClearly, the universe does not wish me to see OotP. The first time, when I was supposed to go to the premiere over two weeks ago I had a high fever and cough and couldn't go. This time around I had just left home for town and driven for about a half kilometer when my tire goes dead, I'd driven over some broken glass. So I had to walk my bike home and then walk about a kilometer to a bus-stop.
The movie was good. Mostly the other people were quiet except for the one idiot who'd left his cell on, it rang during the last ten minutes.
I'm not going to compare the book to the movie.
I enjoyed it. There were things missing, there were things there I liked seeing. In all it was a nice rendition of such a long book. Umbridge was brilliantly evil with all her pinkness, loved the kitties though. I disliked movie-Hermy in this one. Remus and Sirius didn't get enough screentime. I didn't even cry when Sirius died, I just felt hollow.
I think that having already read DH affected my perception and way of how I felt about some characters.
I loved the visuals of this film.
But the Marauder Era flashback was way too short.
I miss Sirius.
