Yeah, even my brother couldn't have missed the catering to a certain slashdom in the Azkaban movie. *fangirl squee*



That aside, the only glaring disappointment was - as has already been stated - the fact that no one ever bothered to explain who the Marauders are. I suppose they had their reasons *pout* but there were a handful of scenes - especially right at the end - where they could have said "yo, here's who they are."

WTF happened to Draco? He's an annyoing brat, not a sniveling baby. Ugh, movie Draco isn't a match for Harry at all. In the books he's much more loathsome. And Hermione, jeez. I'm with [livejournal.com profile] skylark97 - she's positively Mary Sue and I don't like it. I like Hermione in the books, in the movies I just want to kill her. Ah well. Some other chars were changed that I didn't much like, but I guess we can't have everything.

Remus I had been prepared to not like much. While he wasn't as I picture him, I have to say I think he was all right in the movie. Overall I can't complain - except maybe for the mustache and that's only if I want to get nitpicky. But Sirus. Perfect, perfect, perfect. When he and Remus hugged? And he was talking to Harry? And trying to help Lupin? *returns to fangirl mode*

Snape is such a bitch, I love that man to death. Look up bitch, there's his picture. In the books he's one of my fav chars (again with the shadowy chars), and overall I think Rickman does it verra well (if anything they don't let him be nasty enough).

Buckbeak couldn't have been done better; they really worked hard at that one and it paid off. I was most pleased. And there were all kinds of cute little moments that made the movie fun even if they should have used that time to put in more of what actually happened. The whole knightbus was cute and oh yeah! the map was neat! and the two playing the twins were perfect imho.

Okay, enough rambling. Overall I approve. Ah - didn't like the new Dumbledore as much. And except for their wearing too much damned street clothing I like the new directing. This movie had a much darker feel, which is fitting. Book three is where things start getting more serious *wince* so it's fitting.

Argh. No more talking. Go see movie.

I need SBRL and SSRL icons *goes hunting*

**edit** Forgot something - was not expecting Remus' werewolf form to look quite like that. For some reason I just thought he looked like a wolf...

SO SO funny... at the midnight showing in Bellefonte... the audience laughed. Here in L-town last night... I think we were the only three chuckling.

I so agree with you about Dumbledore. He just... doesn't do it for me.

Something that bothered me was the sloppiness of all the students. Shirts untucked, everything just kind of... untidy. I don't know, that just peeved me for some reason.

Heh. Alan Rickman in a dress. Verra cute. He is sooo perfect for that role.

I noticed no catering to slashdom in the movie.

You're one of the few then. There was definitely SBRL slash hints there...and if you really wanted you could construe SSRL.

This obviously answers the much asked question saturday night. Which means my answer was correct.

hey

I went and saw the New harry potter and I liked it better then the other 2 I also have the games so I knew what was going to happen. So it really was not much of a suprise to me
