He said in an interview that he plans on doing all the films.

And OotP has been announced and the trio + malfoy are still the same people. David Yates is the director, and I think he is a very good director, he made an awesome TV drama called Sex Traffic which was beautifully directed

the first movie [sucked] too..

the first and second movies, I admit did suck, the directors played it safe and didn't use their imagination at all, which, although it made it true to the book, it didn't really make it imaginative.

The third movie i thaught was very good, apart from the weak ending, the director took a gamble and used his imagination creatively which made for a very good film. The fade outs to the scene changed were genious.

The fourth movie has a new director, a british one. Apparantly he captures the essense of british schools perfectly. From what i have seen, although a lot of it doesn't look like what i imagined it to be, will still be good. With a book everyone's imagintion produces different things, with a film we are all watching the director's interpretation, and so in that case, I think it is good to have a director that takes risks.

I thaugt GoF was the best book, PoA was very good to, but OotP let me down, there were way to many sub-plots, like the thing wiht that stupid giant gwarp, that pissed me off. Also, JKR can't write love novels, and she rushed in a lot of stuff to set-up the romance for book 6. And I didn't like the fact that things were explained for people who hadn't read the previous 4 books, HBP didn't do that and it made the story flow a lot better.

Damnit, i'll have to buy it on DVD after christmas. And I haven't even seen the third movie. T_T I'm really looking forward to all of it, from the trailers it looks great.

I reckon the Prisoner of Azkaban was by far the best book. I really liked OotP as well. I didn't actually like GoF that much, some parts really annoyed me. HBP was really good, except for certain parts. CoS was a bit annoying in parts too. But I reckon the first and third books were the best.

There not getting rid of daniel radcliffe, all the actors are the right ages...

This is my favourite book, and the film looks really good...

I want to see it as soon as possible...

I can't see why they would get rid of Daniel Radcliffe half way through, he's the most recognised actor, and if they change it, it would completely change everything...

It only takes 1 year to do each film anyway, so they age about right, they aren't getting too old... They're 16 aren't they...

I think i read in the newspaper Daniel didnt want to do anymore soon cos he wants to move on to different things, but its really strange he would leave midway through the movies cos if you change 'harry' then you might end up hating the movies. tbh they should have put 'to complete all harry potter movies' in his contract lol. Ill try to dig out the article to see if i was right cos saralk says different

Personally i'd hate being him in other movies cos people are only gonna recognise him as the guy who played Harry Potter...

I'll probably see it on the 17th November.

yes

That show was awesomely well made, if not ever so slightly controversial and... well, shocking.

Just booked 9 tickets

i wouldnt really like it if they replaced the actors. its just not the same. you'll start having people who like the new actors better but its just not the same, and since this is a big series youd get debaits and rumors over whos the new ___ just like they did with james bond.
personally i think it sucked that they had to get a new dumbledor, he just isnt the same as the first one.
