For the dance, I would have chosen "insipid." Ghavrel Send a noteboard - 25/11/2010 01:04:10 AM
There are plenty of very poignant moments shared by Harry and Hermione in the film; the graveyard scene was very touching. But someone might have missed it, so we get treated to the blatant display of nonsense that was the dance. They're friends, not awkward lovers-to-be. The graveyard scene is the former, the dance the latter.
"We feel safe when we read what we recognise, what does not challenge our way of thinking.... a steady acceptance of pre-arranged patterns leads to the inability to question what we are told."

Yeah, I plan to keep it vague. *NM* Ghavrel - 15/11/2010 11:45:46 PM 704 Views
I figure it's fair. I mean, the universe has to make up for you being you sometimes, right? LiterateDog - 15/11/2010 10:28:46 PM 1266 Views
Sorry, I can't hear you over everyone in the theater talking before the film. Ghavrel - 15/11/2010 11:47:11 PM 1173 Views

Hah, well, that subtext is probably a good thing (spoilers) beetnemesis - 16/11/2010 02:24:13 PM 1316 Views
Yeah, but unfortunately it just comes off as being really out of nowhere. Ghavrel - 16/11/2010 05:29:26 PM 1189 Views

I'm thinking you'd be really, really, really confused. It might be a bit like surrealist art. Legolas - 16/11/2010 06:04:37 PM 1211 Views
But the 7th book relies so heavily on the 6th, it would be pretty impossible. Ghavrel - 16/11/2010 08:29:28 PM 1338 Views
You ought to read or watch them just for their cultural relevance. Ghavrel - 16/11/2010 08:30:45 PM 1250 Views
I see the , but serioiusly, I don't think I need to. Palatine - 17/11/2010 05:53:27 PM 1130 Views
It's about as influential as Star Wars, which I guess depends on how influential you think SW is. Ghavrel - 17/11/2010 09:23:55 PM 1184 Views
That seems a bit early to say - wait till twenty years have passed, then check again. *NM* Legolas - 18/11/2010 03:46:24 PM 662 Views
Fair enough, but I think we're already seeing its influence on children's literature. *NM* Ghavrel - 19/11/2010 08:41:51 PM 684 Views

didn't like 3/5 for me Foxhead - 21/11/2010 12:57:59 AM 1329 Views
I'm glad it's 2 films, but the total run time could be 4 hours instead of 5 hours *NM* Deadsy - 21/11/2010 07:15:54 AM 643 Views
i guess even with severe editing one film would have ran for 4 hours Foxhead - 22/11/2010 11:53:13 AM 1153 Views
the dance was one of the best scenes in the film, imo. *NM* Deadsy - 22/11/2010 07:09:26 PM 650 Views
Yeah, I really liked it. Darth_Katie - 22/11/2010 08:10:08 PM 1136 Views

yes, but we can't have CHARACTERIZATION!!! LadyLorraine - 24/11/2010 06:55:39 AM 1065 Views
For the dance, I would have chosen "insipid." Ghavrel - 25/11/2010 01:04:10 AM 1204 Views
it wasn't characterisation, it was horribly awkward and clumsily crowbarred in Foxhead - 25/11/2010 01:15:20 AM 1013 Views
*shrug* I liked the scene. It was something lighthearted in the middle of a lot of bleakness LadyLorraine - 25/11/2010 01:43:14 AM 1073 Views
I was against the idea of splitting it when that was first announced ironclad - 29/11/2010 03:02:27 PM 1160 Views
Completely agreed. Rebekah - 29/11/2010 04:44:57 PM 1159 Views
#6 was way too rushed and should have been split. trzaska2000 - 01/12/2010 07:55:34 PM 1108 Views

I didn't expect it to make the other films look that poor ironclad - 25/11/2010 11:20:53 PM 1127 Views
I also enjoyed the slower pace at times..... trzaska2000 - 01/12/2010 07:59:44 PM 1202 Views
Wow. Awesome. Makes it all the sadder how bad the others were, but oh well. Legolas - 26/11/2010 10:48:35 PM 1178 Views

Compared to the original scene, though? beetnemesis - 01/12/2010 03:00:44 PM 1097 Views
