I've read the book tons of times, it's probably even my favorite of the series… I honestly don't think the movie can be anything close to as good as the book. I haven't really enjoyed any of the movies, except perhaps the first two, so I can't believe this is any better. It might be okay if you dont compare it to the book, though. I wonder how they have accomplished it. A lot of the things in the book happen in Harry's mind, and it must be hard to make it as a movie without it being boring.

Yes Zohra, i did read all of those books and and it s my favorite series too. I choose this topic cuz i agree with you that the movies are far from the book except the the first two. I agree with you that we know everything through Harry Potter mind and i think that is why ppl love this book. It seems that J.K Rowlling associated herself to Harry Potter.But for the movies, it likes that i know everything from the third person….i mean that there is a person telling  me the story of Harry Potter. Not know from him directly.However i saw the movies cuz i wanted to know what are the differences between the books and the movies. What are the limite for movies.I can say that im very disappointed with the movies.

hmm..im not a diehard fan for harry potter both books n movies but i,ve seen three of the movies (including the lattest) n read the first 3 pages of the fifth book(then give up haha-it so long..i salute the two of you). As a person outside the Harry potter clan, i think the movies is not that bad though is cannot be compared to the books as Zohra said. in a movie point of view, i can say that  the director had made a great job because making a book-based movie is not a simple task.Especially from a book that contain over 700 pages!! of course reading gives a better effect n i guess thats the power of reading right? Me myself enjoys reading manga n i never get the same feeling while watching any of the anime tv series. the impact is less but it still an ok feeling.

I also agree with you "cateyes", I think his scar is a horcrux. I also don't want him to die. I'll wait the portuguese version of Deathly Hallows.

I have seen Harry potter and the Order of the Phonnix movie ,but not read the book.I like the movie very much ,and I also hold an idea that the storty which is told in  the book should be more interesting.Harry is still alive,of course,in my opinion,for the stake of his mission.
