Johnny Storm Posted July 15, 2009 Share Posted July 15, 2009 Well Im back from seeing the half blood prince. I have to say it was the most boring film ive seen in years. Let me just say I would consider myself a fan of the films, especially the last two which I thought were amazing. This film had about 15 mins of scenes that were worth watching (if that). The rest of the film is mostly teenage love and not even done in a cute awwww way, more of a ewwwww im going to be sick its so pathetic way. I find myself keep looking at my watch hoping it would end soon. :angry: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was really bad, as in badly acted. Didnt feel any connection or anyone seemed that bothered really. I mean the actors. The audience was totally silent, especially when the credits came up, it was "omg did i just pay for that?" moment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Prescience Posted July 15, 2009 Share Posted July 15, 2009 Isn't Harry Potter for children? So I believe........... Never read one of the books: or seen any of the films. Society reaches perhaps an intellectual watershed when the movie industry is so stuck for scripts, it makes full length films from kids cartoon book characters; viz, Superman; Batman; Spiderman et al. Worrying.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Worrying.. And more worrying in this case is that all those ticket sales indirectly help fund the Labour Party as old JK is such an avid fan of old Gordo. In essence paying to see this film is tantamount to treason IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Johnny Storm Posted July 15, 2009 Author Share Posted July 15, 2009 Labour Party as old JK is such an avid fan of old Gordo. Knowing that, you think she'd be much better at making up pure fantasty stories. Does it make me sound like an old scrooge, but jesus the prices of the junk food!!!!! I was kinda surprised when my 500 ml of no real brand water was £1.90!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest X-QUORK Posted July 15, 2009 Share Posted July 15, 2009 The Simpson is the only vaguely kiddy entertainment I find worth watching, everything else, all the Pixar stuff, Harry Potter, etc...they're all shit. Someone convinced me to watch Finding Nemo, I was asleep within 30 minutes of hitting play. I think this might be because I'm 40, not eight.

I told you there might be spoilers :-) Personally I would have killed off the ginger haired families mum. Not for any other reason as she seemed a lovely lady and it would have been shocking.

Little Professor Posted July 15, 2009 Share Posted July 15, 2009 BBC Radio 1 are currently having a "Harry Potter Day" - broadcasting from the sets of the film, interviews with the stars throughout the day, talking about the film in all the links between the ten songs that they play on an endless loop, and generally ramping up the film as much as possible. When did BBC start carrying adverts? http://www.the-leaky-cauldron.org/2009/7/1...o-with-dan-emma Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sir Sidney Ruff-Diamond Posted July 15, 2009 Share Posted July 15, 2009 I stopped going to the cinema years ago, installed a HD projector and I buy Blu ray's. And what does Blu Ray think of selling you his films? I know I'm a grammar nazi, and I'm completely unashamed of the fact. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
waitingandsaving Posted July 15, 2009 Share Posted July 15, 2009 Would some house elf made Cockroach clusters have made the film more bearable? Did the children in the audience enjoy it? I've often wondered why films like this are rated 12a... The Harry Potter books got increasingly dark, and I think that at some point they stopped being chilren's books...

Driver Posted July 15, 2009 Share Posted July 15, 2009 Judging by the number of times the little twerps behind me kicked the back of the seats, i would say they were a little bored though a little scared at times. I can't help feeling there should have been a story line in there somewhere but maybe adults shouldn't watch kiddy films. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
