>>Wife and I saw the movie last night. Loved it (which was a relief, because we were disappointed with parts 5 & 6). But this one nailed it.<<
I loved 5. Umbridge made the film for me.
Six should have been cut into two movies as well.
We are leaving for the Wizarding World of Harry Potter on Dec. 2nd. It’s for my 50th birthday. I’m willing to be groped by TSA personnel for it!
Just close your eyes and pretend it’s Filch with his probity probe.
You will love it. we went this past summer for my youngest’s 16th bday. it was hot and crowded but well worth it.
Yes, Umbridge was great. The main problem I had with #5 is how short it was. Order of the Phoenix was the longest book. They cut out soooo much. And it really felt rushed.
The thing I loved about Deathly Hallows was that is was slow and deliberate. They should have done that with Order and Half-Blood Prince as well.
But there were certainly things that I liked about both. Can’t wait for Pt. 2.
We may go to Orlando in the spring as well. It will be worth a grope.
