I also agree that PoA was the best film. I wonder if Alfonso Cuaron had directed GoF it would have been better. I might watch the 5th film, but I'll wait till it comes out on DVD and I'll borrow it off a friend.

I heard Shymalan (sp?) was offered the first film, but couldn't do it becuase he was working on Unbreakable, but he may take the 6th or 7th film. I would be excited to see that.

I want to see the rest of the movies. To see how they compare to the books. And who's Shymalan?

Certainly the actress playing Umbridge could be a bit more grotesque. I can't wait to see how the make-up is going to go. They can do wonders these days y'know. I wonder if there is going to be any cgi to accentuate her heinous features.

Artist portfolios are only as strong as their weakest link. How horrible was Shyamalan's Wide Awake? How horrible was The Villiage? I am not alone in thinking they were really, REALLY BAD bad movies. I would not want any Harry Potter movie to be as bad as The Village. As off the mark as some of the Potter movies have been, none have yet reached the level of bad storytelling attained in The Village. Just saying.

I think Umbridge is completely wrong!!! But not as bad as Sirius and nowhere near as bad as Lupin. I nearly cried when I saw the actor who plays him.
I also think POA was by far the worst of the films. The atmosphere was all wrong. I didn't think much of GOF either. Loved PS/SS though. Definately the best atmosphere.

I think your problem with The Village is disappointing. Shymalan is a great storyteller and has you believing the unbelievable in a new and interesting way. He makes you use your imagination, and maybe you just need to exercise yours more often. I would love to see Half-Blood Prince by Shymalan. The suspense of the story leading up to the Astronomy Tower would be perfect for his style.


Oh, I don't think the actress for Umbridge is frog-like enough...and I imagined her as being more portly.
