Great books, really.
And I love Prisoner of Azkaban. The movies... hm... They are good. And up to the fourth I think they did a pretty good job with bringing the books to life, too, but with the fifth... The changes were just too big and many things missing. The film in itself is great, really, but knowing the books I was totally disappointed. *sigh* __________________

I didn't really think the sixth movie dark, only the things with Draco and that closet.
The fifth one was dark. Of course they had to leave things out, but it was just too much in the end. Then there were things that never happened in the book or things happening in a different order. And there was too much teeny movie in if for my liking. __________________

Teenie? I thought six was darker than five, but maybe I'm mixing things up - it has been a while since I watched them. Gonna dig out my DVD's and do a re-watch.
One thing I know for sure is that I'm still struggling with the 'new' Dumbledore Not to say that Michael Gambone isn't doing a good job, he is, I just think that Richard Harris will always be my Dumbledore. __________________

Yes. Too much teenage romance and all.
And I know what you mean about Dumbledore. Michael Gambon does a good job, but Richard Harris... that man was the real, perfect Dumbledore as you imagined him. __________________
