But I think anyone who's a fan of the books can agree with me that the movies don't do the books justice at all. I remember back in 4th grade when the first book came out. It was the first book I can remember really being "absorbed in," you know, that sensation when you're reading and you forget what's going on around you, you let your imagination go, and you're really in the story. Something a movie can never do. These books were THE thing to read going up through grade school as each book was released. I remember how some teachers raved about them because kids who didn't have interest in reading books, for some reason, read these. They were the only book to do that as I remember. I can't believe the final movie is already coming out, hard to believe it will be 14 years since the first book by the time this movie comes out.
I think Peter Jackson has done the best job of turning an epic book series into film, but these films aren't too bad themselves. In my opinion, all of them should have been at least two parts. There's just so much detail and plot left out.

I just wish they wouldn't add stuff to the movies that wasn't in the books either(aka the Weasley's house burning down in the 6th movie). Also I think what has really made the movies work is the actors/actresses they have choosen to play the characters.

That being said, I think Rickman pulls off the character very well. Severus is without a doubt the most complicated chartacter in the series. In one hand he is cold, calculating, sarcastic, and bitter. On the other hand, he might be the most pathetic characters in the story. At various points in the series you either despise him, feel sorry for him or admire him. He is my favorite Potter character by the way.
Ha Ha.Im so fucking pumped for these movies.
Have you ever heard of a vagina? Prolly not.
Little Danny;441535 wrote:I agree with you about Dumbledore. When I say Snape is the most complicated I mean to say his character gives the reader the widest range of emotions about the character. I do have mixed feeling about Dumbledore as well, however even after reading all the books there are still a lot of questions for me to make a final decision.
**Spoiler Alert- Do Not Look Below If You Have Not Read Deathly Hallows****
When I first read the book I clearly thought the book was about Harry Potter. In the end, one could make the arguement the central theme of the series was more about the redemption of Severus Snape than anything else.
