And you described the joy of getting each new book perfectly. I read them within twenty four hours of laying my hands on each one. The rest of the world might as well have stopped. It makes me a little sad that I don't have any more to look forward to, but the story was so perfectly told, that I am satisfied with both books and movies.<br /><br />I also agree with you that the last two movies were my favorites! I was disappointed with so much being left out in the first one.Melindahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11673930610844503371noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31191208.post-59705854750368168292011-08-02T11:22:03.216+10:002011-08-02T11:22:03.216+10:00I think it's amazing that you waited to see th...I think it's amazing that you waited to see the two movies together. I don't have that kind of self-control when it comes to Harry Potter!<br /><br />I'd like to rewatch both of them though, doing what you did.

It had been so long since read the book and a year since I watched the Part 1, I was a little lost trying to remember what was happening at the start of 2 (and I wasn't the only one, people around me were asking each other questions). I agree though, I think they went out with style on these movies.imbeingheldhostagehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00771374087307254969noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31191208.post-18779775381311849142011-07-31T15:25:01.602+10:002011-07-31T15:25:01.602+10:00Must confess that I have left Harry Potter to hubb...Must confess that I have left Harry Potter to hubby to share with the kidlets!

I couldn't wait (never been good at waiting actually!) and the wait between Part 1 and Part 2 was EXCRUCIATING!!!!<br /><br />But your summing up of Part 2 was fabulous.... Goodness I loved it.. Would love to take Heath, but suspect with his issues, at this stage it would only cause problems, so think will wait for it to come out on DVD.The Image Is Everythinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12948108605680379128noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31191208.post-67164688269407060662011-07-28T22:26:19.185+10:002011-07-28T22:26:19.185+10:00Whew!

I have read all the books, so I am glad for that, I felt that if I hadn't, the movie may not have answered everything for me.<br /><br />But I totally absolutely agree with Alan Rickman, what a performance! From the very first time I saw him in HP1 I felt that he WAS Snape...the Snape Mrs Rowlings had in her imagination.<br /><br />I often think I would love to have half an hour with her alone just to find out how she REALLY feels about the movies...I think I would be devastated if I found out she didn't like them, I truly felt they brought the words to life like no book-to-movie ever has before...other than Gone with the Wind.
