Just saw Order of the Phoenix!

[Aryn Culbertson]

Hallo all,
This ole lass saw the Midnite viewing of the film (Pacific time),
after waiting in the cinema for 6.5 hrs, and it was a rather good
film. It certainly was better than the third film (but then again 1,
2, or 4 are better than 3). Tis unfortunate that a number of plot
lines are left out of the film, but Mr. Radcliffe did a very good job
of portraying a darker angrier angst teenager. And also, it does help
seeing the film another 2 times already. So since midnight (actually
10 past 12 11.07.07) until 10 past 1 am 12.07.07) viewing the film 3
times has been rather enjoyable. And do have agree w/a number of
parents, it is NOT a film for young children (younger than 8yrs old or
such, and yes I do have children).

Cheeres,

  L. Aryn
