Close it, burn it to the ground and salt the earth afterwards. |
Nah, Archive the threads if people still want to see them, and open it up if a future generation of Acmlmers are enthusiastic about it. (restricted) |

Hmm.... |
Ok as a self confessed Harry Potter nut and a MASSIVE fan of this fiklm, let's tackle your points one by one.... "The actors/actresses have improved greatly. It's the new Director that messed this up. First, he BUTCHERS the book by adding in extra crap, cutting out GOOD stuff (The 3 Quiddich Scenes, not one short one >.<) " - The other Quidditch games was superfluous to the story, however... I'll put everything I DID hate towards the end, lest there be spoilers. "Also, Dementors CAN'T FLY. They hover a TINY BIT off the ground." - It would make sense if they could Fly though, think about it, you wouldn't be able to get away from them. besides, they were creepy enough for me, and if they only could float, they'd look too much like Black Riders. " On another note, in the begining of the movie, you see Harry under the blankets. What is he doing? MAGIC. Students aren't aloud to use magic out of school, that, right there, would pretty much get him in trouble." - Using magic in front of Muggles isn't allowed. Perhaps Harry's allowed to do homework. I mean he's allowed to send Owl Post whist at home, and look at his Wizard pics though. " I DO love the new robes though, but, I have a littly nity picky about that. If they are to get new robes before their first year starts, how do they know whether to buy Gryf., Sly., Huf., or Rav.? They'd have to either take a guessing game, or buy 5 robes, 1 pair for the first couple minutes of Hogwarts before they get sorted, and 4 after. They'd have to buy all house robes. If it was the normal robes, like the first 2 movies, they probably GAVE them a patch to patch on the robes after their sorted." - Wizard clothes probably work different to Muggle ones. perhaps the robes change colours once a student is sorted, or the patch appears by magic or something?  Ok, stuff that irked me.... Spoiler: - No Cho! Although we do see her in the next film, makes sense.... - That Cheesy as hell ending, with the Firebolt. and the freze frame and the ARRRGGHHH, it sucks! (restricted) |

It was pretty faithful to the book IMO, the whole Timeturner thing was done to perfection. |
Mind you it'll be interesting to see GoF, that's my second fave book after OotP.

Anya - Plus Bastilla kicks arse, mind you, hr accent doesn't make me as warm and fuzzy as most KOTOR fans, basically because I hear it on the street, in supermarkets, everywhere, and not everyone with that accent is a foxy Jedi |

Hmm, if you were a brit, I;d tell you to go to a "Citizen's Advice Bureau", as there you can get free legan advice and they may be able to get benefits for your Dad, or explain why he can't. However you're not so.... |
I suppose all I can say is "Hang in there". I've been in a similar situation to you (only we didn't have food stamps, we starved instead ). If I can make it through, anyone can, I know they're hollow words, but short of winning the lotttery and sending you a million bucks to settle your financial situation there's not much we can do.. but hey... did the venting make you feel better? It helps me.

Well the good thing about this film iks that if it's a success we'll finally be able to see "Charlie and the Great Glass Elevator" being made into a film.. I want to see CGI Vermicious Knids! |
I adore the original film, but as I'm a massive Roald Dahl fan, I didn't like the fact that they cut a lot of darkness out of it, all that remains is the trip along the Chocolate river (Even Gene Wilder's song, which is right from the book is perfect....). I'll have a look at the film, but I don't like the song in the teaser, it reminds me of the mice from Babe  Spoiler: And besides, I think the kids DESERVED to be messed up, they were terrible! Especially Verruca, she did my head in.
