I haven't seen it yet. I'm waiting to see it at the IMAX, but it's not playing there yet because they are still showing Transformers 2. Hopefully I will be seeing Harry Potter soon! Sometimes I feel like I'm the only one who hasn't seen it yet!

Yah, that's how the other Harry Potter IMAX movies were. I don't care too much about the 3D since I have monoscopic vision and have trouble seeing in 3D anyway. I just like viewing the movies on the IMAX screen! The quality is incredible!

That's cool! I haven't experienced seeing movies on IMAX. I really planned to watch this one on IMAX but my friends told me to watch it on ordinary cinemas. Anyway, I plan to watch great film with great special effects on IMAX. I am sure there will be a lot movies to be shown there!

I think on IMAX, they will just play it for 12-20 minutes 3D and the remaining scenes will just be simple. That's what I've heard from my friends.

I've been a fairly good HP fan since the first book came out, and I do enjoy seeing the books come to life in the movies...
But my boyfriend doesn't seem to like them much and he's kind of swaying my opinion on them. Haha. I'll probably always be a Potter fan, but I do have to admit, I'm not so in love with them these days.
I personally think the earlier movies were better. Can't wait to see the last ones though!

Hahaha. Well, my boyfriend loves movies, he's just not a big fan of reading books, and I think with the Potter films, you don't have the same respect for the movies if you haven't read the books, y'know?

Yeah, that's right. Let's give justice to the novel. Anyways, potter movies are only remake of the novel. Our imaginations have been the greatest movies of all times!

My boyfriend is not into movies, too. That's why he ended up sleeping whenever we get to watch movies. I'll always be a Potter fan. It's amazing how I can't be a Potter addict but when it comes to their movies, I surely watch them!

Yeah, the effect are really great! But I'm quite disappointed because I'm waiting for great fight scenes.

Yes go see it in the theatre. I like to watch movies online since I don't have $10 for every movie that comes out, only to find out it wasn't that good at all. If a movie is really good I save my money and buy the dvd later. I don't mind the blah quality of the bootlegged movies (I don't condone bootlegging, nor do I buy any bootlegged material, but since it is there and free I might as well see it), at least for the movies that I'm not so sure if they are any good or worth my $10. But Harry Potter definitely is. I saw it the first day it was out, super amazing, great effects, worth the money and time in the cinema!

I haven't seen the movie yet. Hope the movie is as good as the previous ones. I am very eager to see the movie but some circumstances stopped me from watching the movie.

I know the graphics are awsome. Some scenes are really appealing.But romantic scenes were not as much as you are saying.Even there are less kiss scenes as in the book.And the story moves slowly because the plot for next & the last part is being created.I think its a fantastic movie. Go & see it as many times you can.

I agree there was less fighting, and more of their personal lives, which I think was cute. I have to say that those creatures that crawled out of the water really had me freaked out! lol But that just goes to show how great the effects were. I'm glad they moved the release date up, we already had to wait almost two years. The kids are getting so big, only one movie left!

Yes! I think they're getting big as I am too. I first knew about Harry Potter when I was 13. THat's why I'm getting sad for they have just one movie left. A part of my childhood will die with the memories of Harry, Ron and Hermione.

I heard a lot about the movie not following the book in a lot of places. For example, Harry was supposed to kiss Ginny after the quiddich game but didn't. Also, they're supposed to not remain together for the following book because of the danger and all. I dunno, I liked the poking at relationships bit, but maybe it's because I'm single and understood the whole Hermoine and Harry having a crush on someone who is with someone else. The cave scene was brilliant, exactly as I pictured. Other than that, I didn't remember much of the book so it was nice to see the story again.

I'ld love to get to the movie, but will most likely wait for the DVD. Cheaper you know, and being retired I'm on a limited income.

I have not yet been able to watch HP's latest movie since it has not come to our local cinema as yet, howevr my niece in australia has seen it and she was simply raving about it. I asked her whether it was not the same as the book since most important incidents were supposed to be missing in the movie. Her answer was "so who cares?" "Ron was superb, he made me laugh so much and it was kind of funnier than the others, and of course HARRY POTTER was there and that's who we want to see"... Well, I guss that's who the really young crowd wants to see.
