I was able to until I got pregnant. Now I go to bed at, like, 10:30. It is pitiful. Taking a nap mid-afternoon sometimes helps though.

I saw Transformers on IMAX and was similarly disappointed. Plus we ended up being in the front row (ugh) so it was a little overwhelming.

Every TV trailer is different. That's a good sign. When a movie only has a couple of good parts, they only show one trailer with that part over and over again.

So I watched HOB's first look on the new Harry Potter movie and I must say I am so bummed. It looks like a good movie bt I am disappointed with all of the liberties they have taken with the story. I feel like JK Rowling wrote 7 TERRIFIC books (with the 6th being one of the best). I was so confused by what they showed on HBO... why change something so awesome?

1) Belatrix is not in the 6th book but she i sall over the the movie.

2) There is no battle at the Weasley's in the 6th book but that is apparently the focus of the 6th movie.

3) They cut out the big battle at Hogwarts??!?!

4) Dobby isn't going to be in the movie (which I think means he will not be in the 7th or 8th movies... and he plays a significant part in the last book).

I'm frustrated. Are there any other HP purists out there??

It's coming out here (UK) on Wednesday. On Thursday I'm picking up my little cousin (she's 5) and we're going to go and see it together :))

This might be a pretty intense movie for a 5 year old.

Yes, it might be, at least based upon what I have seen in the trailer.

Yeah, but I know there is no way they could follow the books without making each movie 4 parters. I didn't like how they compressed the fireworks with Fred and George leaving in Order of the Phoenix. That's such a great part in the book, I wanted it separate.
