The Never Ending Thread

That I do not doubt. I just think some books are better than others in terms of keeping my attention. I think I need to relate somehow...can't do it with potter. Love it on the screen, but not in a book.
I agree it's not for everyone. But thank you for expressing your opinion without resorting to call it "ass".

wow...all of them made a ton:
Harry Potter Movies (http://www.boxofficemojo.com/franchises/chart/?id=harrypotter.htm)

hate to tell you this angry, but Potter is WILDLY successful on the screen. The books apparently make amazing movies.

There you go with the dog on stats again. Just because everbody went to see it doesnt make it successfull. After the first One I went to see the second thinking that it was going to get better, it didn't. I did the same for the third and it didn't get any better either. They keep you wanting more but never give it to you. In other words I may have been duped twice, but I will watch the rest on DVD.

That was a reference to the movie Idiocracy. I wasnt calling the movie or the book ass I was making a reference to how boring it was.

No biggy...to each his own.
I actually liked the 4 previous movies, this one just seemed like overkill to me, like a lame bridge to the next movie (or book).

I know there are lots of things I like that others don't, just as there are plenty of things you like that others won't like. That doesn't make it dumb or stupid, just that we're different. No big deal if you ask me.

ps- I think you and angry have gotten to the point where he is trying to push your buttons and you seem to respond well most of the time, but this one pushed a little too hard.

Umm, I beleive the definition of a successful movie is the money it brings in.

I'm not called statman for nothing. :D

That movie stole 2 hours of my life!
The idea, I actually liked. It doesn't seem to be too far from the truth, we do seem to be getting dumber and dumber, and only the poor and dumb are reproducing at high rates. They could have done a much better job IMO.

The 5th book was over 800 pages. I think they did the best they could. I wish they had made the movie 3 hours long.

I only defend things I'm passionate about.

Well that is something different. I base a movies quality on how well it does in the awards. How much money it makes is a testiment to the Marketing.

I agree. they could have done a better job, but I will continue to reference it for two reasons. It makes me laugh and it resembles the truth as you stated.
