I really didn't like movies one or two, though they closely followed the story. They were just so souless. But movie 3 rocked, so I'm going in to this one with good expectations.
I was the same way. I saw the first film, and I was soooooooooooo underwhelmed. So long, so dry.... I actually never bothered with the second film when it came out, despite the presence of Kenneth Branagh, and I adooooore Kenneth Branagh. Then I heard Cuarón was directing the third film, and he directed A Little Princess which is one of my favorite movies EVER, so I went to see the third film with a friend. And finally, finally feel into the whole HP fandom. And it's funny, because so many fans bash the third film, but it's definitely my favorite of all of them.
The only thing I'm worried about is that I'll be in the theatre with some crazed Ron/Hermione shipper who will make mean comments, and then I'll have to stand up for my ship, and then it'll be a rumble... (actually, that would be funny)
AHAHAHA. That would be me. I'll be the one yelling "That's RIGHT! CANON, BITCHES!" and starting a brawl :-P
Are you going at midnight?
Completely against my better judgment...yes. Thank God for Red Bull and Diet Coke because I'm gonna have to pull an all-nighter on my rough draft ^_~
