The New Harry Potter at the New Cinerama! FILM
The New Harry Potter at the New Cinerama!

Let's be honest. The Harry Potter movies—with the exception of Alfonso Cuarón's near-perfect Prisoner of Azkaban, the only installment to realize that a novel is not a screenplay—are DUMB. I will, of course, repeatedly watch the shit out of them, because I am a freakish lady-manchild who loves wizards more than my own family. So guess what, my fellow freakish man- and lady-manchildren (and regular children, too, I guess)? IT IS TIME! J. K. Rowling's super-tense, super-exciting, super-satisfying final volume is being split into two (probably disappointing!) films—the first of which you can now watch at the newly revamped and renovated Cinerama. What were you going to do instead? Hang out with your grandma? WIZARDZ 4 EVER. (See Movie Times: thestranger.com/film) by Lindy West

Cuaron's was so wonderful. Heavy sigh for all the rest, including this "thirtysomething" version.

Yikes

Apparently there was an assault with a hatchet down an alley near 15th and Spring.

Just thought you should know

I loved Part 1. Many things left out that I feel should have been there but most of the additional scenes were ok. The best was the dancing scene with the Nick Cave song. It was very well done. I could really see the concern Harry has for his BBF Hermione. I loved the 3rd movie but this one holds its own. HBP was very disappointing. This clip has a couple of seconds of the dance scene:

This scene just sticks with me. I think because it was so well done and because of the song.

I liked the animated Three Brothers story too. And the toothbrush in Fred's ear hole. I could have sat through a four hour part 1.

Hatchet assault: that sucks.
