I saw Deathly Hallows during the weekend which I lovedlovedloved.

Enjoyed it tremendously despite being on the second front row seats. I have to say that I'm a bit surprised by that ( me enjoying the movie that is, not me being right below the screen craning my neck up for two hours ), mainly because other than Prisoner of Azkaban, which I loved very, very much, I didn't quite enjoy the rest ( my profuse apologies to the Harry Potter fans on my flist ).

I cried at the end when Harry told his son that he was named after Dumbledore and Snape, and that Snape was the bravest man he'd ever known. Snape had been my favourite character since Book 1 and I love book!Snape as much as I love movie!Snape.

LOVE seeing them being made-up as adults!! They did Harry really well I think, and Hermione too. That girl has aged well.

Btw, that was Bonham-Carter herself playing Hermione!Lestrange, wasn't it? If it was her, then it was excellent acting by her because I couldn't make up my mind whether that was her or Emma Watson!

Now I probably will go re-watch all the HP movies and maybe I'll like them better the second time around!

I haven't seen the movie yet, but I did watch a vid on youtube that has some of Snape's scenes, and I loved it. Snape's my favorite character, too.

I'm glad you liked it so much! I've been disappointed in a couple of the movies, but for the most part I've liked them. Snape was my favorite character, too. I didn't care for the way the kids were aged, it looked too fake to me.

I thought it was Emma Watson playing Hermione!LeStrange, but I wasn't entirely sure. If it was Bonham-Carter she did an excellent job!

That was her playing herself, I think. You're right that she did such a great job playing Hermione playing her!! I really loved the movie. I think it is the best of the series. And word to what you said about Snape!!

I'm kind of embarrassed to admit that I haven't seen any of the movies past "Order of the Phoenix." It was good, huh? Some day I'll have to catch up. :)

I have to say that was the one scene that made me emmotional too. LOVE Snape. Also liked him from the start but I think when it was finally revealed how much he must have sacrificed I simply loved him. Oh, and <3 Alan Rickman. Wish Snape had been in it more in all movies.

I was afraid I was gonna cry for the Twin death (Keep forget who died. Ooopsie bad fan!) but it didn't grip me in the movie (was so quick and short) but in the book I was heartbroken.

Hee, yeah I liked them as adult except Draco. That beard made me laugh. Sorry Mr Felton but that did not look real or very good IMO.

The movies are uneven but I find movies 1-4 quite good. It's more of a childrens adventure but then I kinda like that. I was a bit disappointed for 5 and 6. Still ok but wasn't as exciting as I had hoped they would be. Movie 7 part 1 is the same as the first half of the book. Quite boring but part 2 makes up for that big time.

I want to see part 1 and 2 back to back now. :)


Oh, and also on Helena. She acted so briliantly as Hermoine/Emma. Nailed her mannerism to the letter.
