GOP Review

[little_blue_pupooh]

The GOP opens in the Philippines today (Nov. 16) with a General 
Patronage rating. Personally, I find the book far better than its 
movie adaptation. Listed below are significant changes in the movie 
plot that had destroyed the book's spirit somewhat and that has 
possible consequences in the next movie.

1. Barty Crouch Jr's identity is also introduced though not divulged 
in the first part of the movie. In the book, his identity is slowly 
developed and introduced thus a spirit of suspense and thrill on how 
who Barty Crouch Jr is. 
2. The movie fails to mention important characters in the movie like 
Dobby, who helped Harry get the gilliweed, the elf of Barty Crouch 
and Percy, who replaced Crouch. Due to Percy's disappearance in the 
movie, it would be hard for the next installment to point out that 
Percy would not believe and support his own family and Dumbledore.

Here are some of my comments regarding the story line.

1.	The Crouches' characters were undeveloped
2.	Daniel is still a poor actor, though a cute and sexy one 
(especially when he was figuring out the message of the egg in the 
bathroom)
3.	I hate Dumbledore's acting – he seems to be too energetic
4.	The movie is not as dark as the book
5.	It would be best if Hermione was ugly at the start and would 
become beautiful during the ball
6.	There was no mention of who won and what happened to the 
money afterwards
7.	There was no mention of Fudge's (or was it Barty) deals with 
the Weasley and goblins
8.	There was no mention of the missing ministry woman and how 
Arthur went to Moody's house before the start of the term

Any reactions
