My favourite movie was Prisoner of Azkaban, so I didn't vote.

Of the two you listed, I liked Chamber of Secrets better than Sorcerers stone.




And could we please keep the topic titles relevant?

From the two choices, I liked the Chamber of Secrets more too. Lockheart was wonderful! :grin:

I dont like them as much as the books, because they take away the imagination used while reading. But if i had to pick, the CoS, because, well, I just do.

It's not that they are taking away our imagination if not adding to what we've already imagined. But what makes them not as good is that they leave some of the best or most important clues out. Some of the most important clues are just some of the simplest clues. Out of all three, PoA was the best made one, but S. Stone was, in my opinion, the best one following the story. (going to go watch all three again just to make sure i'm right.)

Personally I didn't really think any of the movies were brilliant, but my favourite would have to be PoA by a mile, though I sorta didn't mind CoS because it had my brithday shown on Tom Riddle's Diary when Harry enters the memoy of it.

I love the third film. It is really good espesially the dementors and the whomping willow. The charactors are great and more grown up.

Something big that I didn't like in the third film PoA was that everyone was always in muggle clothes instead of robes. That really p***d me off. I don't know why they're doing that, maybe just for budgeting reasons or because they think we'll like it better...who knows but I really don't like it.

2nd one

Postby Bextra » Saturday 23 April 2005 9:30:07am

I think that the second movie is better because Daniel is a much better actor. I mean sure he was in David Copperfeild but he was only a kid so that was all he had to act, being himself.

My friends saw the movies first, and whenevr i ask what they imaine the charcters to look like, they say "i don't have to imagine, it is all here!" so i guess it deopends on what you do first... :)

Yeah, the actors don't have to take over your personal belifes of what the characters should look like. Take Dudley, for example. He's meant to be blonde (only one of the mistake made over him,) but even though he isn't in the movies, when I'm reading the books I'm still thikning of him blonde and the size of a......... let's just say young killer whale! :grin:
Kenneth Brannagh as Lockhart has been the only character that has actually been more entertaining than the book counterpart.... or at least getting there.

I agree with Phoenix in the Ashes, Dudley is too small in the movies!!!

I suppose it might be hard to find someone that big though!!! :grin: Also, some people would say that the movie was sending signals to children's brains and telling them to be fat, or something ridiculous. I don't know, maybe it would of been a little hard to get someone the size descripted in writing. Maybe impossible. Blonde shouldn't have been too hard though.
The acting isn't too bad though (for Dudley)
