I don't like the movies. I don't like anything about them. Unfortunately I take my frustration out on the poor, dumb, no-talent patsies they've wheeled in to say the lines (ie. Emma, Rupert and Dan).. don't get me started on the level of my pissed-off-ness where the movies are concerned. Oppps I think you did.
On your heads be it:
It's the directors' fault!! There's no great talent to represtenting a depth of emotion and characters accept that the director needs... well... a great talent. Why can't they get one! Where's Peter Jackson when you need him??? Get some quality artists and .. guess what?... you'll get quality art! Funny huh!?
What's with the choice of actors???? What.. people who
can't act! Wow!! Brillant! Why didn't anyone else think of that?! Oh hang-on, I know the answer to this one: Because it's a REALLY bad idea!!! I mean look at the first movie for example, the guy who plays Oliver Wood shines. He's on the screen for 5minutes and he shines. He isn't amazing , it's just that he can act... opposed to every other kid. I can't believe that they had to settle on these awful child-stars when they had the world child population to draw from!!!
*breath, breath, lotus position, breath in the good, breath out the bad... sigh*
please note how sane I sounded when I started this post
psyduck: I don't know about a miniseries but I'm all for decent remakes.
I think the remakes should have a different actor to play Harry in every episode that way the movies won't be about the life and times of the actors and wll be about Harry Potter (kinda like this site should be! :P

)
