<< Special Effects-What can I say, I'm a sucker for things like this.  I liked
 the Quiddich scenes and adored every moment of it.  I followed it as if I
 were reading a long, cheering for each Slytherin goal.  The game was
 exciting and wonderful to watch and left me wishing they played all the
 games they did in the books.  The troll was another part I enjoyed.  He was
 stupidly cute and funny and a bit of lightness in the movie.  There are
 other effects in the movie that were equally enjoyable..the chess match, the
 Devil's Snare, Voldemort (yes Rita, I concede he's ugly...now if they only
 showed the PROPER Voldemort....*sigh*), that I could all elaborate on
 but..you saw if for yourself hopefully :) >>

Fascinating..And what are you talking about -- re Draco's incisors? (must be 
a fanfic thing)
I thought the special effects were (in general) terrible....but then I don't 
care about special effects. The most recent Star Wars movie - the Phantom 
Menace -- had wonderful, wonderful special effects, and was a dreadful 
disgusting movie with no soul. The centaur was ridiculous...the troll was 
okay..I really had to work to make any sense of all of the Quidditch match...
THIS movie had spirit and a soul.....with pretty mediocre special 
effects......
