This was my thought. OP, have you read the books? That's what they were. They weren't really action books.Denamic said:Who expects a Harry Potter movie to be an action movie, seriously?
It's Harry Potter, not Die Hard.
The films in two parts....most of the action in the books is in the final half....do the math.Thedarkness77 said:I was really looking forward to this movie because the previews showed a movie with a lot of action, and fighting scenes in it, and what i saw was a 2 and a half hour drama with light action. I wouldn't complain if they had not adverticed this as the wrong movie so im angry that they lied to me. So who else was dissapointed by this movie.
I would LOVE to see them skip that horrid epilogue. Those were the worst lines in the entire series.FinalHeart95 said:The beginning of the book is a fetch quest. It's all build-up for a big finish. And a big finish it is.
I wonder how they'll handle the epilogue in the book though...
I agree with this. And I thought it was a bloody good movie, though I'm one of those people who enjoys pretty much anything Potter-related.super_smash_jesus said:Have you read the books? Because if you have, you would have known all they do is freaking walk around the woods for 400 pages. They made a good movie based on the material they had to work with, not great, but watchable. And really, they are just setting up the next one.
I also agree with this. Being faithful to the book was always better than packing the film with action scenes in my eyes. Those scenes they added in HBP felt really tacked on.DM master said:I think it was the best Harry Potter film so far.
I was less diapointed because they had more of the book there which is why i like harry potter.
Ive been disapointed by all of the other films because of how much they cut out.
Whats disappointing is your grammar sir. Not only that but if you want a huge action movie with fight scenes then maybe you should have chosen a... Oh whats the name for it... Action Movie!Thedarkness77 said:I was really looking forward to this movie because the previews showed a movie with a lot of action, and fighting scenes in it, and what i saw was a 2 and a half hour drama with light action.

ouch.SpaceSpork said:That series has been getting progressively better over the years, as the actors mature (maybe a little TOO much) the director improves (fuck the guy who direct Sorcerer's Stone. Fuck him in the ass.) and the series generally gets less bad.
I went to Potter 7 at midnight, and thought it was the best movie of the series yet. If you didn't like it, fuck you. And your grandma. And your favorite color, if applicable.
EDIT: And the action scenes being spread thin build up the suspense. Douchebag.
