Okay so I went to see it on Fri 8th-Over here anyway.
WOW.
They were as faithful to the book as they could be.
Myrtle was pretty well-done, lockhart was the same g*t he is in the books, Snape was just as slimy, the car was fantastic, there was humour and by the end-even though I knew what would happen-I really was clutching the edge of my seat.
I only had one grip with the animation and that-Fawkes. In flight he looked gorgeus but in the scene where he cries on Harry's wounds to heal them he looked SO...SO...stiff! It was obvious he was a puppet. (he did, having said that, look great in the air)
Aragog and his minions freaked the living daylights outta me. I totally felt Ron there [img]tongue.gif[/img] , I mean, if i wanted to see spiders I woulda watched 8-legged freaks [img]tongue.gif[/img]
Dobby was brilliant, just as weird and abstract in the film as the books. Lucius Malfoy was a slimy g*t I just felt like punching, Author Weasley was the same-obssessed with muggles. The howler was HILARIOUS, and the basilisk was....I'm not going to ruin it. Go see it. It beats the 1st film hands down. [img]smile.gif[/img]
