Harry Potter and the chamber of secreats
went to watch the movie last night i thought it was excelent again very well acted (apart from some of the lesser younger peoples roles) and fitted together nicely.
Not as good as the book as been a movie it has to flip past much of the inbetween stuff so it moves from scean to scean without that much explination. the balask was very good nice cg there. dobby looked real enought the quididich game was better than last years. what did everyone else think of it?

Well, since I live in the US I haven't seen it yet, but I think it will be better than the first one. Movies and books seem to get better as they go along in a series, at least I think so. My expectations for the first movie were too high I think and I was a little bit disappointed by the CG animation, but I hope their better this year. Only four more days, I can't wait!

I saw it last Saturday and thought it was brilliant. The acting was a lot better and daniel radcliffe has improved immensly. I got a tad scared by the spiders but thought the basilisk was great.
Yey!! england got a film before the USA

I unfortunately won't be able to see it until the Sunday after its Friday opening, due to a debate tournament... I feel left out. Oh well.
I'm sure I'll have lots to say, though.

I probably won't go until next weekend or the next, because last year my friends and I went on opening night, and some "cool" people saw us there, they were seeing a different movie, anyway they still make fun of us for it. I don't really car but my friends do, and they've already said that we are definately NOT going as soon as it opened. And I don't wanna go alone, or with my parents so oh well.

I saw the earliest showing today w/ my parents. (Yeah yeah, I'm a geek....who cares? My parents are great!) It was really good! Better than the first one, I think. Moaning Myrtle was PERFECT! So was Lockhart, he's hilarious!
Of course, the book is still 10x better, but this one came closer to the book than the first one. Overall a great movie. Highly reccomended.

Well I got over myself and went to see it with my mom today, and it was a lot better than I expected. It was also a lot better that the last one. It was really really good. The spider part freaked me out too. The thing I really liked about the movie was everything looked exactly how I'd pictured it when I read the book. My favorite part of the movie was the Quidditch match. I wish that was a real sport, it looks like so much fun.

I saw it last wednesday. It was better than the first one. The child actors were more at ease with their acting.
I wish I hadn't read the book before this one, though. Although they were very faithful to the book in that they didn't add anything not in the book, I wanted to be pleasantly surprised moving from one scene to the next. I had that last yr since I read the books just after watching the movie. Now that this appetizer' done, gimme TTT!

I saw the latest TTT trailer when I watched HP. I still get excited everytime I see treebeard (or another ent) picking up Merry (or was it Pippin?).

We're not getting it 'til the 28th. This is SO not fair!
 This, combined with the fact that we're not getting TT for ages either means I'm gonna have to put up with you lot gloating. Grrr.

I went to see the movie yesterday. It was good, but it made me become disgusted with the "magicals" of that world yet again. A couple of places in the movie, my friends and I were grumbling, "Snoodies!" or "Snoodie Elorrans!" a them. (made up words: Snoodie, a word for the HP magicals; Elorran, one-worlder) As for the TTT trailer, I saw it, and it was the best part of the movie! (I'm saying this as someone who LIKED the movie, too.) |

I'm not a huge HP fan, and I hated the last movie, but I've heard this one is better. I'm bored today, if I can get ahold of one of my friends I'm going to go see it.

Just got back. It was far better than the first one, but eh, still not a very good movie. The effects were nice, and Dobby didn't bug me as much as I thought he would. I laughed a lot, surprisingly. I think Rupert Grint was the best of the trio, he definitely has a future in acting.
Moaning Myrtle WAS perfect! The ending was corny. Bleh. Did any of you stay until the end of the (endless) credits? There was a short but cute little scene. On the way into the theater there is a television that shows previews, and the long version of the TTT one was showing, and I squealed.  I never squeal! I was quieter in the theater when the shorter trailer came up, but my friend (who is a movie-fan) was breathless.
