June:
Steve you really have to read what is posted properly. I never said
I had a problem with Voldemort's eyes not being red, in fact I really
don't care about minor stuff like that, I just like to watch the
movies and enjoy them. What I said was the thing that I thought
people would point out (and no one has) is the fact that Voldemort
has blue eyes. In the books Voldemort's eyes were red but in the
movie they are blue. Look back, these were my exact words. I then
finished by saying Personally although it would have been better to
see his totally as described in the books, I have no problem with his
eyes being blue but I would have thought someone would have said 
something about this. Not once did I complain about this, I just
wondered why when everyone else seems so upset about Harry's eyes
they never said any thing about Voldemorts. Personally I don't
understand why anyone would watch a movie and then do nothing but
complain about it. To me it is more satifiying to watch the movie and
enjoy or if you really didn't like it allow others to enjoy it and
just don't watch it again.
