It's one of those nights...

Woah Gary Oldman plays Sirius?? Since when? Ha, I feel like I've had this conversation with someone before. Probably with Lee.
Now that I know that Gary Oldman played Sirius I totally miss him too. More Gary Oldman! More Gary Oldman! They definitely could have done like a flashback or something, right? Or something.
As for my reaction to the film, not my OPINION, my reaction. Hmmm. Honestly it was exactly what I had pictured in my head. Like EXACTLY. Up until like last year I hadn't read any of the books but I had seen all the movies. I think what happened was that once I actually got around to reading the books I already knew what all the characters looked like and so it was easy to just continue picturing them for the seventh book. Except apparently I forgot about Gary Oldman. Ah well, I was young and ignorant when I saw the...third one was it? I know now the talents of Mr. Oldman and no longer take them for granted.
My one criticism for the film, is that it was a little TOO close to the book. It's a strange thing to say I know. It's like the first time I've felt like that. Normally I'm complaining that the movie strayed too far from the story but whatevs. I just think that maybe the seventh book was a little...you, know...lengthy? With some unnecessary and kinda boring scenes? Don't hurt me Miah!! And I'm just a little surprised that the movie took such a long book with so many scenes that could have been shortened and just did it practically word for word. Aren't they supposed to be all creative with the way they transform it to fit the screen? Or something? That is NOT to say that I didn't enjoy it. I TOTALLY did. It was frighting, hilarious, riské?, and sad and wonderful!! I think I even screamed in terror during the...well if you've seen the movie you can probs guess what scene would make the audience all jumpy-like. So, having scene (aha, did you see what I did there? With the word seen spelled scene..eh?) the first part of the last Harry Potter movie I say that I am satisfied with it. Even the acting!! Which I always complain about...
Before I finish here I just wanna say, do you ever have one of those nights where there isn't any food in the house except like bread and water and the car is gone so you can't go grocery shopping until whoever has the car gets home and you're broke so you don't want to go out to eat so basically you're starving all night? Yea. My stomach is not quite at the loud gurgling stage, but it is definitely starting to suspect that it's not going to be fed for a while and is totally starting to get riled up about it. Time to scrounge for food! MMmmmmm yummy stale bread :P
Right-O!
Evie :D
