I saw the movie "Harry Potter & the Half-Blood Prince" today, and it was excellent! Although the book is my least favorite of the series, this movie is the best of the bunch. It starts out using the theme from the very first movie but in a minor key, so you know (if you didn't already) that this is a much more serious movie. Emma Watson is a real beauty, Rupert Grint's comedic side really shines, Daniel, as always, is great as Harry; I loved the twins' joke shop, and the music is top-notch.

This entry in the series deserves to be nominated for Best Picture. If you haven't already, go see it!

I was tempted to go see it just tocheck out Emma, but I´ll probably wait till it comes on DVD.

How did they handle Harry´s sudden interest in Ginny?

It's subtly hinted at from their first meeting.

I can't wait to see this movie! I just know I'm going to cry though, just like I did in the books -weird I know, but I've literally grown up with these characters.

As soon as I have seen it I'm going to post my thoughts about it here. I know I'm going to love it.

I thought it was quite good. Funnier than the rest, yet more serious. But the changes that were made quite disappointed me.

I thought it was brilliant. Defiantly the darkest one yet and also the funniest.
