[HPFGU-Movie] Is there anyone else who really hated it?

hmmm...Well, I have to say that the beginning lagged a little and topping it 
off with those delightful first notes from "Hedwig's Theme", it could've made 
a person not-so-obssesed with Harry Potter mania droop just the slightest 
bit.  My mom has seen it THREE times and I still have to poke her on the side 
to get her to wake up, but it's not because she thinks the movie is crap.  
She really likes all the fifteen minutes she's seen (that's the sum totat 
from all three times, mind you) and she really wants to see it again so she 
could start piecing the bits from the previous times.  I guess you have to go 
into the movie knowing that it's merely an interpretation of the book and 
that it takes a lot of gut to grab something already so damn perfect and try 
to make another work of art from it.  It has it's merits, but it also has 
it's downfalls (I wanted more humor, dammit!).  But for those of you who 
didn't enjoy or, rather, "hated" the movie, you can console yourselves by 
reading the book again and watching it in your head.  You can't have anything 
better than that.  =)
