I have to say that the first film was my favorite by far. Simply because it was the introductory film. Everything was so magical and we hadn't seen anything like it before. Sort of like The Matrix. It was so brand new with it's effects and such that in comparison to the two sequels, it's surpasses them greatly.

I agree up to a point. I can't wait to see Phoenix on the screen, but I'm afraid of all that they're going to cut out to get it there. :unsure:

And as far as continuity of the book onto the screen, I think GOF will be more entertaining to watch than any of the others. To think of all that they have to squeeze onto a 2.5 hour film, well, GOF should be nothing but non-stop action. And that will be most entertaining. :D

You've definitely got that right!! I can't see a dull moment in the film. But *again*. as always, we will complain that it didn't stick with the books, and they left too much out. :toofunny: :P

I found that the third movie was too rushed . (IMO) While the second, didn't include every thing, but had enough that you could understand if you hadn't read the books. Also everything was in order for the second. Thats just my opinion though.

Sure, the first film was the beginning of the magic of Harry Potter.. it was well done, but in my opinion it was a little bit too childlesh. The film was.. kind of sweet. But the following films were better. They were more thrilling then the first and the actors were acting better.

Childish due to the fact that all three actors (Dan Rupert and Emma) were all very young at the time.

I feel that the first film is the best one.

Why?

Because I feel that it introduces a whole host of new and exciting subjects, events, etc. Granted, it had to introduce the main characters and there's no way that the following films could do it, but there are so many other things that excite the senses.

The second and third films come up pretty close but I still feel that the first film edges them out.

Thoughts?

Well, I think that all the films are very good, but I think that maybe the third film is best... :)

The first movie had a "magical" feel to it that makes it a truly wonderful movie to watch again and again. The Best! :angel: :hufflepuff:

I thought that was so cool! Took me a while to notice, but oh well, lol. 01:)

I was thinking that they had just left them stationary though at different heights. But upon closer inspection, I was very happy to see each individual candle move. 01:)
