Sue,

this time around it seems the screenwriter has an almost slavish devotion to the book in comparison to the previous movie where they made up stuff out of whole cloth and messed up the narrative. I would agree with you that in a perfect world, it would have been nice to show more Hogwarts, but this wasn't in the book at all, so I guess they decided to err on the side of keeping the narrative structure of the book if it was at all possible. The changes they did make in the movie that were different from the book are inexplicable to me though.

Serial:

I didn't laugh at the kissing scene, but I hated the CGI in that scene.

Also, at Ron's line about the wand he found, "Ten inches, nothing special." Two guys in the theatre burst out laughing, which caused the rest of the audience to laugh.

The bit where he brings her flours is my number one most romantic film moment of all time ever.

Jars gets it in one. The simplicity of that scene just slayed me. I could imagine someone in my life doing that...which is what made it more romantic.

Then again, when I watch what plays as romantic...say two people who have been running around all day after bad guys, etc. and then they start ripping clothes off, all I can think is, "Hey, don't you guys want to take a shower first?"

I may have cleanliness issues.

bonny, bonny, bonny. Revel in the musk. Therein lie pheromones.

I'm with ita on this one. Besides, ya gotta make the most of an adrenaline high while you got it.

I laughed at the 10 inches line. And then felt like a pervy old lady because no one else laughed.

bonny, bonny, bonny. Revel in the musk. Therein lie pheromones.

heh.

Sue, you were wondering where they found the guy who played Bill? Probably on the set while he was visiting--he's Brendon Gleeson's son.

I'm kinda with bonny. After all, I'm the one who was grossed out by the dirt/grave sex in "True Blood."

Sweaty is good and all, but I draw the line at dirt.

OMG, sex when you just have to have it and ignore the small stuff like sweat and a bit of dirt? Halloo lovely. And some things fiction is great for, because you don't have to have the decon shower afterwards.
