I finished "HP and the deadly hallows this monday. I liked it alot! so many closures of all the things you were wondering about...
I was actually a bit disappointed with the phoenix order movie.
There was a lot of things espically about the Black's, that I find quite important concerned the following books, that were missing.
But hey , it must be a hell trying to get all the small sidestories fit in the movie....

I totally agree about the movie (haven't finished the deadly hallows yet)
it just didn't carry me along
there were too many holes in it and it seemed chopped up

to be honest i have not read any of the books i was more into LotR books. someone flick to the end of the new HP book and tell me who dies

[CrazyHedgehog]

ahh LOTR... read the hobbit at 8 years old, by 9 I had started the LOTR.. got scared and hid the books....!!!!

Read them again while I was pregnant....talk about a film missing so much story!!! those films should have been three per book!

[Lulu Bennett]

yup i was quite disapointed with the movies but they were still very good though

I'm really into LoTR as well, but nobody's written anything like it
I would not compare HP to it

[KITKAT]

Well... you are comparing a book series written to appeal to children and teens (HP) versus a book series written to give adults west of the Atlantic, a substitute for cultural history and myths and legends, and written by a professor of Old English at Oxford (LOTR).

The HP books are written for fun. The LOTR books are written to fill a cultural void that Tolkien felt we suffered here in the USA.

well I loved both of the series as that is the type of stuff I really like!!!!
and yes there were some deaths in the last book, but I can't say how it ends just in case others are reading and aren't finished....over all I thought it was great!!!!!! and I'll miss it, but you never know if it will come
