Brother Adam Posted November 18, 2005 Posted November 18, 2005 Sooo is everyone gone because they are all waiting like little kiddies in line to watch HP IV? USCCB Review: Fourth film in the series based on J.K. Rowling's fantasy novels, in which Harry (Daniel Radcliffe) competes against students from two rival schools in a perilous wizard's tournament that ends up being sabotaged by the evil Lord Voldemort (Ralph Fiennes), who uses it to ensnare Potter. Director Mike Newell continues the darker tone set by 2004's "Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban," and though this go-round feels a tad long, it still conjures enough movie magic to cast a satisfying spell over audiences. Frightening images, scenes of intense menace and some sexual innuendo. A-II -- adults and adolescents. (PG-13) 2005 While I'm not really excited about it since I don't read the books, Teresa will be dragging me along by the collar to go watch it after RCIA tonight.
Sojourner Posted November 18, 2005 Posted November 18, 2005 I'll watch it eventually. I'm more excited about "Walk the Line." Johnny Cash rocks.
sweetpea316 Posted November 18, 2005 Posted November 18, 2005 Heh...I'm one of those "kiddies" who saw it last night...er...this morning. I enjoyed it. But that's just me.
Guest T-Bone Posted November 18, 2005 Posted November 18, 2005 Walkin the line line....yep also, I can't wait for Aeon Flux.

the_rev Posted November 18, 2005 Posted November 18, 2005 It was a good movie. I didnj't read this book, but it was really good. Somebody said you can never tell Good from Evil in that movie. However it is evident, that Voldermont is bad, and that Dumbledore and Harry Potter and the others are good. Heck Dumbledore came in and combatted evil in this movie.

homeschoolmom Posted November 19, 2005 Posted November 19, 2005 Well... His name [i]is[/i] John. But we named him that when he was born. You may remember the John Ritter also died then (though it was the day before)... kinda creepy.
zabbazooey Posted November 19, 2005 Posted November 19, 2005 Walk the Line....looks like a GOOD movie!!!!!

AlterDominicus Posted November 19, 2005 Posted November 19, 2005 Sligthly scarier now, lol. I was going to see it today but I didnt get to.

photosynthesis Posted November 19, 2005 Posted November 19, 2005 I am such a bad media studies major, I didn't even know there was a new harry potter movie out until yesterday!

[right][snapback]794978[/snapback][/right] [/quote] [color=purple]lol! not cause it sells better...arguably it does, but they werent like: ok, this could clearly be a PG movie, and we just need to add some sex and violence so more people come. The books actually do get much more mature and much scarier as they go along. There were some really scary parts in goblet of fire! I was like flipping out when he was with the dragon! it wasn't for 8 year olds. And as the characters face new things, more adult things like romance and relationships, the rating is obviously going to increase. A lot of reviewers comment on the change as well, and they might it explain it a little better than me. [/color]
NewReformation Posted November 19, 2005 Posted November 19, 2005 Boycott Harry Potter! [url="http://hourofthewitch.com/"]http://hourofthewitch.com/[/url] Many ex-witches are against Harry Potter and the increased interest in the occult his books and movies bring.
annie Posted November 19, 2005 Posted November 19, 2005 I have always wondered about that. Does anyone know what the bishops have said about all the controversy? I did not care for the books, pale in comparison to the likes of Tolkien etc. Anyone up on this 'occult' thing and the HPBooks?
