I know it's still a little early, but it seems promotion for the movie is gearing up, as we are fastly approaching the premiere! This one looks just as good a movie as 5 was, if not even better, and I am waiting for this anxiously.

Here's one of the trailers:

Excitingness! :lol:

Once again Warner Brothers completely destroys another Harry Potter movie.

I can't believe JK Rowling still allows this SH*T to be released in movie theaters. Every single movie save the first one is a complete abomination of the novel. And they've only gotten worse as the series progresses.

And not to ruin it for those of you who are thinking of seeing this but you should be warned that SEVERAL significant events from the novel have been CUT from the movie. Like this isn't small nitpicking stuff either. I'm talking major events and fallout that should be in it will not be shown...

If there were was ever a need for an online petition to boycott a movie this would be the movie I'd boycott but the truth of the matter is that it will gain millions at the box office thanks to all the little kiddies who will go into it for all the magic effects... :angry:

Just thinking of the novels and the massacre that the movies are just makes me want to cry...

Exactly my thoughts. I can still enjoy Movies 1 and 2, but 3-5 are just brilliant, especially the fifth one--and I expect the next three will be equally as brilliant.

I am not one of those fans who will compare chapter-to-chapter with what's on the movie. For the most part, the changes and cuts make sense and I understand that a movie is a whole different ballgame than a book. I reserve judgment for Movie 6 because some truly major stuff is being cut off, but I'm trusting Yates has a plan.

Though I'm gonna have to wait till August to watch the movie. <_<

I didn't care for the 5th movie, but I didn't like the 5th book so I guess that makes sense.

I really liked the 6th book so hopefully I'll enjoy the movie.

I don't think this is spoiling anything but I'll hide it anyway

Exactly my thoughts. Harris was exactly like I had pictured Dumbledore as well (actually, the movies have been perfectly cast in general), and it was sad to see him go, but the Voldemort/Dumbledore fight? Or what's coming up next? No way he could have done all that stuff. It was a sort of blessing in disguise for the movies.

Loved this movie too! Saw it on the 16th; want to see it again. The movie got the jist of the book. Yes, parts are left out but not real significant parts. (and yes we could argue that point). But book 6 was a set up to book 7 just as the movie is. It (the movie) got all the necessary parts in order but it also put in the parts that showed the growth and development of the relationships of the main characters. Books rarely if ever translate well into movies. To me there is nothing that compares to a good book. I don't tend to judge a book vs. a movie.

    • I totally agree with this, as most of you seem to. Mary Carney was at least competent and reasonably likable; I just feel like she barely had anything of substance to do before she was abruptly given the hook. And I get the backstory of Kathleen Tolan having done a play with Helen Gallagher, but...at any point did they ever actually READ her before they greenlit her? Because...OOF. First time I saw her on SoapNet was right when this GODAWFUL actress named Charity Rahmer played Belle on Days of Our Lives for all of three weeks before she was mercifully recast; her line readings were straight out of a Charlie Brown special. I remember thinking Kathleen Tolan could have played her mother! In the Frank/Jill/Delia triangle, Delia WAS the one who was cheated on, so I got why she was upset and thought it was perfectly valid in theory at least, but of course it was blown up to Wagnerian proportions including falls involving staircases and tricycles. But with Pat/Faith/Delia I had no sympathy for her...especially because it was mainly with Catherine Hicks's Faith and I really liked her.
    • I was going through those episodes from 1984 and early 1985 before they were taken down. Some of the older characters, like Don and even Tom, looked a little out of place, like they were on the wrong show. But the newer characters were fun. It's too bad they lost the character of Melissa. I guess Jennifer took her long-term place on the canvas.

    • The black and white episodes of the show are very special. An atmosphere the color run loses. Dark Shadows was filmed live-on-tape. They could do a retake but it would be very expensive. I think there was a claim that if actors wanted a retake they would curse. There was also a rumor that at one point Joan Bennett accidentally said "Hollywood" instead of "Collinwood" and that necessitated a retake.

    • Loved this IG post from Ambyr about how she and Trisha work together. You can tell these ladies go above and beyond the script, and that they really trust and enjoy working together. https://www.instagram.com/reel/DJpJufFPOQ2/?igsh=MXBmcWs0YzIwaXVhNA==

    • It is a shame that more characters didn't go the ATWT-Barbara route and make the ingénue into an antagonist. Sort of like they did with Liza/Hogan/Sunny, less successfully. It is a credit to ATWT's creativity that breathed life in that character for years after she was fighting off bulls in Spain.  But, a character like Liza can only have so many true loves and high jinks on the high seas.  They need another reason to be in the story. Liza's wealth, as well as her acumen to see through fraud, was fertile ground for tons of stories.  But, I feel like the business stories for Liza were always about her being easily overwhelmed, rather than exploring things like her leadership and managerial skills.
    • STFU!! Dante!!! This nonsense of blaming Gio is just ridiculous! Alexis and Lucky are becoming so unlikable. Why are the writers writing these characters so poorly?
    • Keith still comes off younger to me. I thought he wasn't that bad for his first day.
    • To be fair, they were only recently step-siblings.  Their parents married within the past few years.  And, Draper's father Ansel was not coy about the fact that he married Raven's mother, Nadine, for the money. And, Raven's sort of sticking it to April that not only can she have a baby (April has a heart condition that makes it difficult for her to carry a child to term), she could also have April's man, if she wanted him.
