petroniaIn IMAX, which was like $17.50 on a Sunday night. Good grief.
* Kept squinting at the Grindelwald dude like, where have I seen him before? ...On the Captive Prince discussion comm, I'm now guessing. Incidentally I just Googled to remind myself of the spelling and apparently he is marrying Ginny Weasley. WHAT.
* Nick Cave, Hermione? Really? Nick Cave?
* I gotta say I am with Ron on this one: the only ppl who want to see Harry/Hermione manips airbrushed into scary post-Twilight vampiricism are the ppl who make them on the Internet. It was like one of those cringey fanart roundups![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
marej used to do. Voldemort: BANNED FROM LIVEJOURNAL
* The pacing is finally right in that it conveys the feel of the book, properly - sort of grim teen-lit survivalism, from mundane home to wizarding home to city squatting to a tent in the middle of nowhere, each time ejected into further isolation and depression... On the other hand, grim. If one had one's druthers, would one prefer the series to have blown up to double movies circa GoF/OotP when the books were more "riotous tapestry of characters and events" and less "Harry and Hermione trudging to Mordor"? I mean, the actors would all be like 30 by the end, but. XD
* There is something kind of the matter with Snape's hair. Too much body???
* ...Nick Cave?

Date: 2010-11-29 11:55 pm (UTC)We snuck in a flask, so I was drunk and having to go to the bathroom just as the scene with this in it kicked up, and I had to turn around and shake myself a few times just to make sure I wasn't hallucinating it.

Date: 2010-11-30 04:37 am (UTC)To this day I cannot get away from the magical thinking that Fandom's prayers turned Draco and Neville hot. As in, they seriously look like how slash fanfics described their grownup selves in 2003.

OMG YES, I was just talking to Chrissie about this, it was such an obvious fanart moment - if the amulet was trying to get itself smashed, it couldn't have picked a better way. MY EYES.
