Jen Posted July 14, 2011 Report Posted July 14, 2011 Saw Deathly Hallows Part 2 today. And, I have no idea what my emotions are doing. After a false start with a fire alarm in the cinema, and we finally got into the plot of the movie, I couldn't tear my eyes away from the screen. And yes, I cried. But not at the part I thought I was going to cry at. It was sort of a weird moment, where I was looking at Harry and thinking, 'Oh god, he's only eighteen, and is getting desperate and just wants it all to be over, and has to go and sacrifice himself', and everything just sort of hit me. That's when the tears started. I wish I could give a more cohert comment about what I liked/disliked/what was changed from the book, but ultimtely, I laughed and cried and need to go and see it again. And again. And again.
Luc Posted July 14, 2011 Report Posted July 14, 2011 I wish I could give a more cohert comment about what I liked/disliked/what was changed from the book, but ultimately, I laughed and cried and need to go and see it again. And again. And again. That pretty much sums up how I'm feeling at the moment. It's a very melancholy feeling, I think. I cried. So much. I just loved it. Not even the screaming children could distract me. And there were many . I cheered, and laughed, and I adored Molly's line. Perfect. I started crying earlier I thought though, when Lavender Brown was killed by Greyback. I don't know why. I guess Lavender represented the toll this war was taking. The random nature of death and all that. Also, I think her youth had something to do with it as well. I really need to see it again. Yeah, short, but I really need time to process that this is the end. EDIT: Also, Team StarKid kind of ruined the experience for me . I kept thinking how awesome it would be seeing Darren Criss, and Lauren Lopez, and everyone else being totally awesome and all that. Yes, I know, don't kill me!
Inactive User Posted July 14, 2011 Report Posted July 14, 2011 Hey Harry Potter fans!!! . The movie started at 1pm and finished at 3pm. Wow wow it was sooooo AWESOME and EPIC!!! I loved every single moment of the movie! It was the best HP movie I had ever watched in my life! The cast and crew had done such a great job making this film!! Bravo to them!! I will post two short reviews of my favourite moments from the film but I will put spoiler tags in them... I cheered and whistled, clapped at the Ron/Hermoine kiss! It was so cute!! Loved the Ron/Hermoine-holding hands and hugging moments. So sweet and cute! Fred's death scene was so heart-breaking. He's my favourite character. It broke my heart too to see his family crying over his body. Rupert's acting was great and well done in Fred's death scene. And I wanted to hug George when he was crying after he hugged Ron. My heart broke for poor George when he looked lost without his twin in the scene when everyone witnessed Harry's 'death' RIP FRED WEASLEY!! Better not say anymore because I don't want to spoil anything for everyone who haven't seen the movie yet Super acting from the actors!! I think they deserve to have awards for what they had done in the film. This was ever the best film I had watched!!! *thumbs up* I will rather go back to the cinemas and watch it again. Maybe this weekend...

I kept thinking how awesome it would be seeing Darren Criss, and Lauren Lopez, and everyone else being totally awesome and all that. Yes, I know, don't kill me! Dude. Just, everything. Everything you said is so accurate. I started crying at the Grey Lady scene, which was bizarre, but ultimately sort of timely. The Lavender moment was incredible and totally unexpected, I didn't think, given how much they had to fit into the film, that there would be time for those kind of moments. That and the Seamus shout out to the fact that he was always the one blowng stuff, and in the battle he got permission to do it -- I was in hysterics. Snape/Lily flashbacks, and Oh God, him holding her body in Godrics Hollow ... I was wrecked. Also, hello Rupert Grint's fine body. I went into this film having not re-read the book, which I think helped. Because while I adored the story, I wasn't focussed on making comparisons and getting too far ahead of the plot. I keep remembering all these little pieces that I adored, and the attention to detail, about ensuring everything was wrapped up -- I just, don't think I could really ask for anything more. EDIT: And LeakyCon is on right now, and I'm forever jealous of anyone who gets to go, because I've seen a picture of Team Starkid (including Darren) hanging out together with Evanna Lynch and I'm just like, can I be friends with all of you?
LauraPhilly!! Posted July 25, 2011 Report Posted July 25, 2011 Omg, went to see Harry Potter over a week ago and thought it was absolutely amazing! I thought that Alexandre Desplat did a fantastic job with composing the soundtrack! I loved several of the tracks so much I downloaded them to my iPod - some of the music is simply amazing! Some of the scenes were just visually fantastic too! The very first scene at the beginning, with Snape looking over the students in Hogwarts! It immediately set off an eery, creepy feeling, a sense of foreboding for what was ahead! It was brilliant! I thought Fred's death scene was dumbed down a bit! There wasn't as much emphasis on it as there was in the book so I wasn't particularly a fan of that! I loved Neville's scene of defiance, it really worked so well and what he said runs true for me forever - "Harry's heart did beat for us! For all of us! It's not over!" The music in the background added to the sense of defiance! It was just brilliant! One of my favourite scenes in the movie was where Harry recalled his parents, Sirius and Lupin from the dead! It was a really beautiful, touching and heartbreaking scene! Exactly and even better than I imagined it when reading the book! Again, the music in this scene was particularly stunning, especially during the exchange between Harry and his mother! The final scene with the children going off to school was handled wonderfully, I thought! When I first read that Epilogue in the book, I thought it was extremely cheesy, especially with the mention of the children's names was just a bit too cheesy for me! But, credit to David Yates, it was the absolute perfect ending for such an amazing, amazing movie! Once again, the music "Leaving Hogwarts" originally composed by John Williams perfectly complemented the ending of the movie! That song was first heard at the end of Philosopher's Stone and so it was just perfect that it was fitted into the end of Deathly Hallows! An amazing, amazing movie! I am sad that it has finally come to an end! But as JK Rowling said, as long as the Harry Potter fans keep him in their hearts, Harry Potter will never die! He will live on!
HighwayUnicorn Posted July 26, 2011 Report Posted July 26, 2011 Laura! I wasn't the only one that noticed the theme at the end then I was eight/nine when the first film was released so Harry Potter was & always will be my childhood. I think in a way, it made me the person I am today. As cheesey as that sounds. But I read all the books & watched all the movies & have the biggest crush on Daniel Radcliffe & as the films went on, my feelings developed for Rupert Grint, dramatically. & Tom Felton in the last couple of movies I cried way too much in the last film so I can't even pinpoint the parts I did cry at. But yeah, I just adored the movies & the books. JK Rowling is a very inspirational woman.
