Love,Red
I'm gonna start reading the books here soon

There were several sad death scenes in the DH book. I imagine that there
will be tears
from audience members when watching each part of DH in theaters.

Replying to:  



There were several sad death scenes in the DH book. I imagine that there
will be tears
from audience members when watching each part of DH in theaters.

 

And yet I didn't cry at all when I read the book, though I actually gasped
(the first time I read it) when Lupin and Tonks were found dead.  That's why
I only read it at home!  Well, almost.

 

Speaking of which, I went to see Percy Jackson and The Olympians' The
Lightning Thief a couple weeks ago, and it's an awesome movie!  Way better
than the reviewers made it out to be, since they overcompared it in terms of
the next Harry Potter.  Now I really want to read the books.

Robin:
It was a great action movie, but if like me, you'd read 
the books first you'd be highly disappointed. TLT had 
at least 3 characters (that I can recall) that were cut 
from the film which could, like the HP series, cause 
loads of problem if they continue to film the rest of 
the series. Also, Hades is altered from the book as 
well. I work at a theater part-time and I've listened 
to many students complain that the movie was not the 
book they read.

Carol responds:

I was a mess for days after reading HBP, too, but my concern was for Snape, and my only comfort was HPfGu, which convinced me that I wasn't delusional in hoping that Snape was acting on DD's orders. I didn't cry at all in the film, partly because it was so changed and curtailed and partly because I knew that Snape wasn't a murderer. I've also become considerably less fond of Dumbledore over the last two books, especially DH.

I do expect to cry in DH, though, especially the second half. DH (the book) was an emotional roller coaster for me--joy, sorrow, laughter, anger (lots of that). I didn't mind the endless camping trip as much as some people did, but it won't make for a good film! I hope they retain *all* the Snape scenes with as few changes as possible, painful though it was to read some of them. (Well, they'll cut a lot of his memories, but they obviously can't cut them all. And they can't get his age right in the scene where he talks to Dumbledore on the hill, but they've never indicated that he's the same age as James and Lily or that the Potters died at twenty-one, so I'll have to accept their version, like it or not.)

I agree
but I was very upset that they showed (in the movie) that Snape was
really a good guy in the tower scene when he shushed harry
 so much of the
beginning/middle of the last book was the wonder and anger towards snape
