Just saw the Prisoner of Azkaban. I thought the movie was really good, with powerfull imagery and the best acting yet. The sets seemed better, but I had one complaint. The forest scences seemed obviously done in a studio. The trees were just missing something, but more so the matt in the back was fairly obvious. I was just wondering if anyone else saw this, and what y'all thought.

1000 times better than the last films. I'm glad it didn't have a "Y tu mama" surprise ending!

Seriously though. The film was wonderful. I knew from the instant the film began. The scene with Harry casting the light under his sheet for the title sequence was an excellent way to begin.

whats 1000 multiplied by zero?

yeah i agree...
saw it opening night, and was quite suprised by this movie...

i went into it with little to no hopes, and came out BLOWN away...

i hadn't read the books before, so the TWIST at the end (cough, time traveling) was awesome.

this movie was great,
and any skeptics should go check it out for themselves...

i disagree with chris, i think it was 999,999,999,999x better than the other two...

just go see it for yourselves...
peace

i LOVED it!!! they made an excellent choice having alfonso cuaron direct it! very beautifully made film! i loved how this one seemed a bit more contemporary than the first two...not just with wardrobe, but with the soundtrack as well.

the acting was INCREDIBLE! i loved gary oldman and peter thewlis, they had great onscreen chemisrty! sirius and lupin have always been my two fave characters since i first read the book some years ago...i was so thrilled at how well those characters came to life on the bigscreen!

*dreamy sigh of reverie* i love these books and movies...i love the whole damn harry potter franchise! makes me feel 10 years younger!

I really thought Gary Oldman (as Sirius) brought a lot to the film. His performance was beautiful, as always..

Can't wait to see this, I really enjoyed the last two films and Gary Oldman is my fav. actor. It's looks great.

It was very enjoyable, and I liked the darker mood it had compared to the first two, but I really didn't like the story. It focused on things I didn't think were as important as some of the story-lines that were left out (from the book).

I laughed when I heard Gary Oldman interviewed saying the only reason he took the part was because he hasn't worked in over a year and he needed a paycheck. As opposed to Emma Thompson saying she took the part to impress her kids. ...She was wonderful as Professor Trelawny, btw.

I loved the movie!

I saw the first movie twice in movies and ones on computer, but this one was really great!

It had it's things that I didn't like acctually. LIke someone before said about the forest... Really didn't look like one all the time and someone said that there was things missing (from book), it's true. 2 of my friends has read the books and we saw the movie together. They complained alot because they tought that they had missed alot of good stuff from the books. I haven't read the books... yet.

Otherwise the movie was as good as the ones before. I can't wait to see the next one... or is there a next one? I'm not sure if they were going to do movie of all the books?

I really enjoyed the movie. Definately much better than the last 2. Some of the lighting was superb ranking up there with LOTR stuff. Overall good flick definately worth the money!

well today i will go see harry potter. Il tell you waht i think tommorow. I hope its as good of a film as you guys say it is.

yeah - the others were shot like a tv series. this one was wonderfully shot and lit. it looked great. most of the changes to the story seemed good. the envirnoment was fantastic - the huge clock with the pendulem in the entrance hall! the covered bridge! awesome!

the story seemed a bit rushed. most of the effects were good. the werewolf sucked (IMO) but Buckbeak and Sirrius were really cool. the dementors should NOT have flown - it was visually weird looking, they would have been freakier gliding along the ground like Rowling had them. and the patronus was a little odd too. but all in all, FIVE STARS, TWO THUMBS UP, ETC!

It Was GREAT


it was beutifuly shot but i just wanted to see drako malfoi a litlle bit more same with quitge (or how ever u spell it) overall though it was Wonderful!!!!

Draco malfoy was reduced to comic relief which was kinda cheesy

Quidich would get a bit old if they kept doing huge sequences... but a little more would be cool.

yes and yes, a litle but more would have been better.

Quidich is fun to look at... but might be just me... I have dreamed that I could fly since I was a little kid...

Weird I know, but I like it hehe... Dangerous but fun

According to the IMDB (imdb.com) Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire began filming in March, with director Mike Newell.

I am not certain, but I remember hearing somewhere that Goblet of Fire was going to be released in two installments, like Kill Bill.

~S.A.

good thing about the two installments - of course one LONG movie would be better, but the preschoolers can't sit through it, so two installments is better then a rushed version of a 750 page book.

bad thing about switching the director! what's WRONG with them?? lol... "our guest director for this film will be:"
