I'm going to to go on Friday!
And the Weasely Twins are going to be there!!
Why they're going to be at a movie theatre in suburban Chicago is a completely different matter.
Don't worry, I'm not gonna start any sword fights. I'm over that phase.

Buffista Movies 6: lies and videotape
A place to talk about movies--old and new, good and bad, high art and high cheese. It's the place to place your kittens on the award winners, gossip about upcoming fims and discuss DVD releases and extras. Spoiler policy: White font all plot-related discussion until a movie's been in wide release two weeks, and keep the major HSQ in white font until two weeks after the video/DVD release.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.
If our circuit is any indication you'll have no trouble getting a matinee seat today. (this is me encouraging all buffistas to play hooky and go see a movie)

Unless my friend returns my phone call and arranges a time to go see it this weekend with her, I'm going to see it solo at 9:00 am on Saturday morning. I should be able to avoid the worst of the kiddie crowd and enjoy the film sans screaming babies.

The theatre is in the suburbs of Chicago -- easy driving distance from Michigan.
Usually.

My friend just got back to me--in her nefarious ways, she was wondering if we could coordinate sneaking into Live Free or Die Hard after seeing OotP, and when I was looking over the movie times, the 4:45 HP showing on Saturday would be perfect for seeing both.
I feel so guilty over sneaking into a film, but considering that the movie has been out for a while and has had no problems raking up the box office, I don't mind as much. When ChiKat and I saw Once and Paris, je t'aime back-to-back, we paid for both because they are small films that need every penny.

I played hooky (or as hooky as a self-employed person can play) and saw the 10:30am showing today. No crowd at all. Quite nice.
I have to say, I was not impressed with the photos of the actress playing Luna, but the portrayal was terrific. The W!Twins are getting more and more adorable with each film and goodlord, they have gotten so tall, they seem to need to stoop to remain in the shot.
I agree with everything said upthread, especially about Ginny 's priceless expressions through out. Can't wait to see that actor have more to do.
I was sorely disappointed in Emma Watson and can't figure out what happened...except for a sneaking suspicion that she is suffering from her own press. Too bad, that...if it is true.
I've mentioned before how I have the audiobooks well and truly memorized, so the films can never really meet my desires. This one did a good job of actually making me interested in seeing Umbridge on screen, which I didn't think was possible.
I have to confess...never having had the Daniel oost before now, his hotness was seriously distracting.
