I feel the books had very little by way of special effects.
Bennings
This seems like it's made by the same type of person who never shuts up about Littlefinger saying "Your sister."

I don't believe that this is Dorkly, because all the jawlines and facial expressions aren't copy-pasted from each other.

I don't get the Ginny one.

I love the attention to detail when Harry's eyes are blue in every one of the Movie parts.

if you wanted the feel of the book go read the book again,you have no idea how hard it is to make a movie and you just bitch about it

They are different. Get over it.

Boo fucking hoo, you didn't get every single bit that was in the books.
TheFlyingSatan
Its almost as if books and films are different media

Hey op, when you're done with Harry Potter could you remove the louse eggs from my hair too?

My biggest problem with the movies was taking Hermoine's brilliant, awkward, NOT PRETTY character and making her into witch Barbie.

"Is that really what my hair looks like from the back?" Blech.

I hated how left out Dumbledore's whole background story from deathly hallows, then just throw in his sister and brother with no explanation
Neville's parents were so, so important to me. I hated that they left out that.

Remind me again what spew was?

Society for the Protection of Elfish Welfare, I think.
Sounds like that would be a good guess

Entire movie series is worth it for Neville's Samuel L Jackson scene in the last movie.

except the half blood prince was spot on, when in the fucking movie did harry look at a phone?
DiedAndHauntingImgur
It's making a point that no one really cared in the movie/
but they did kinda
Protean2648
There was no focus on who the half-blood prince was, so the reveal was pointless because you weren't invested in who this person could be
WeirdOnions
That's the point. KINDA.
ThisIsFrigglish
"Why wasn't every movie six hours long and giving all the time I wanted to my favorite parts of the story?" - every fucking HP fan, STILL
DVSBSTrD
Well it doesn't help that they used-up half the run time showing off the special effects instead of telling the fucking story.
aGrumpyPotato
Ngl, at least a few of these take away the core growth of certain characters. And it's replaced with "they became much hotter" so....

100% agree with you, i think the movies are great! I do miss some small parts though that kindof changes the tone alot.
TheBearsMaiden
Tv show!
ItsRealTalk
At least some of these aren't about that. The bits on Ginny and Neville especially. Both of them were terrible in the movies.
I would have been happy with 5 hours.
Sheepyhead
More like "Why did they drag the shortest book into two parts when book 5 is literally over three times as long"
ParsleySage
Conterpoint; Why did they cut out important things to add in irrelevant crap?
Because film is a different medium from books. You'd use different parts in a play, as well.
Awesometurtle79
One thing I think they should have done with the movies is instead of a movie make it a series with each book getting a season.
Snooj
Not me. I stopped watching after the third one. It wasn't the leaving of stuff out, it was the horrible changing of stuff to make it stupid.
Like a pathetic looking, bald werewolf?
youdontknowhowtoeatmuffjohnsnow
Wait til the dark towers come out. People are gonna freak
gunnexx
Im already angry af
TchallaVII
it's going to be an interesting experience. putting all 7 books into one movie.
That's what they're doing? Is it going to be 8hrs long?
more like a 2.5 hr movie to cover the entire series. I think most fans will not like it, and most non fans will enjoy it.
From what I heard theyre gonna do several movies and a TV series
One of those books series I've been saying I'm gonna read for the past 5 years.
Same. But I bought the first few books a week ago and started the first one
Now that it's about to be turned into a movie I'll probably end up reading soon it just so I can complain about how the messed it up. Lol
Same
I'm very curious to see what they do with the virulent black racist who hurls abuse at the white Roland now that they cast Idris Elba.
This is why Im angry and probably wont see the movie. Im a huge fan of the books and of Elba but this casting is just stupid
White supremacist
Well that's going to gut the sickle cell anemia and background of racial discrimination.
I just started the gunslinger s few days ago. So I don't know which book this is in. I don't know how many movies they are planning
Easy, cut it out of the movie.
RaccoonMagic
I'm a huge HP fan, and I can assure you this is pretty much 100% accurate. But same for LotR.
Einstein9073
no, the LotR nerds bitch about Arwen, or the barrel-river scene in the hobbit
CptRobotNinja
The Arwen change is one of the few story decisions that actually made sense.
Im a LOtR fan. I think that they made many intelligent story decisions. But the mistakes they made were so bad it makes me sick
Amazinglightbulb
I am SO PISSED at what they did to Faramir in the movies. He the books he is a wise and tough noble man. In the movies he cries
CoughedupFurball
Faramir was my biggest gripe with the movies honestly
blitherypoop
Me too, but what they did to Frodo was worse. He's so moany and delicate in the movie. In the books, he's hurt and scared, but also 1/
/2 stronger than he knows and fiercely determined.
Agreed as well...
Ugh, Christ, those are people who don't actually remember what Tolkien wrote. Cardboard characters and rich backstories of hills and trees.
TECHNICALLYC0RRECT
Which makes cutting out the ending where you see the growth the Hobbits had annoying.
Infuriating. The entire point of their journey was to make them grow up, not just as individuals. Hobbits fought back for what mattered. 1/
/2 Character growth? Pssh. We have sword fights and more elves than there actually are in Middle Earth...and almost no history. Yay?
