Title: Prisoner of Azkaban
Post by: adwight on June 14, 2004, 09:40:20 pm
I just saw the movie, it was loads better than the previous two.  What did you guys think of it if you saw it.  If you haven't seen it, you should go, its good.

I can't be bothered watching kiddie movies right now. I'll wait until it's on DVD.

It sorta bugged me how it tried to be very artistic. I enjoyed it immensely at some points, but others (once again) completely ruined my image of how things are.

And once again I point you to...Harry Potter and the POA in Fifteen Minutes (http://www.livejournal.com/community/m15m/2237.html)

They exaggerated the whole thing about Harry Potter and "My father saved me." thing. It was like they were trying to get the point across to a complete retard.

Oh, and Hermoine's boob size changes during the course of the movie. If you pay attention it's rather humorous. The next movie is gonna be better in that category too. Hahha... woo.

I thought it was pretty good. I think they tried to add a little bit of a "Stephen King" feel to it though, which was good. Somehow they managed to have the dementors "scary" enough so that they were kinda cool, but not scary enough to get them a pg-13 rating. Thought it was good considering it was Harry Potter.:)

And whenever a scene with Hermione appeared, my eyes didn't exactly flash to her chest...

about the PG-13 rating you mentioned, i saw a movie yesterday called "Hart's War" with Bruce Willis.  R-Rated, but the only thing that was "violent" was near the beginning when the guy gets shot in the head, and his brains splatter onto colin farrell.  other than that, there was no sex, hardly any language, and brief violence.  just goes to show you can't judge how "bad" a movie's going to be by the rating :/

It's just a discontinuity - the stuff about the actors growing was well publicized, as were physical changes during the movie - it's not like he's downloading kiddy porn or something.

I haven't seen it for the record, and don't plan to.

Post by: Lightspeed on June 15, 2004, 05:54:28 am
The first two were better.

This one doesn't make much sense, if you havent read the book. They simple f*cked up some scenes, and took out the essential parts to understanding the plot :rolleyes:

It's still not bad, but in this way worse than the first two. I felt a bit disappointed overall.

Hey dude, you try to not pay attention when you've got a friend that's into that @(^! and told you how it would be strange.



Oh, and I forgot to add the ending sucked. It would have been better if they just ended the movie with Hermoine giving Harry the feather. Instead they had to do some cheesy "whee fly" scene. :doubt:

She's 14, he's 17.  i guess it's not that bad after all ;)

Post by: J3Vr6 on June 15, 2004, 10:37:34 am
So what's the beef I see on the news and stuff about he's too old or something?  Is he supposed to be portrayed as a really young boy or something?  In the books, didn't he get old or were they all from the same year?
Title: Prisoner of Azkaban
Post by: Lightspeed on June 15, 2004, 10:40:50 am
They're all in the same year.

Post by: J3Vr6 on June 15, 2004, 10:47:21 am
Que?  Oh, u responded when I had typed, silly me.

Anyway, that still doesn't answer my question.  All I see in the news and stuff is that he looks really old and shouldn't be harry potter anymore.

I was asking if in the books harry potter matured or got older, or if it was all written in the same year.
Title: Prisoner of Azkaban
Post by: Stealth on June 15, 2004, 10:54:14 am
yeah.  it wasn't a bad movie.
Title: Prisoner of Azkaban
Post by: DragonClaw on June 15, 2004, 10:55:07 am
That's common sense. Each movie is the next year at Hogwarts, so naturally, he should age. But, the movies take more than a year to make. The actors are aging more than the characters should. So, suffice to say, eventually we'll have an 18 year old playing a 15 year old. Which doesn't add up at all. And, like I said before, a full breasted woman playing a 14 year old girl doesn't add up either. :p Nurr.
Title: Prisoner of Azkaban
Post by: Stealth on June 15, 2004, 11:06:35 am
well i don't think she's "full-breasted" .......... she is only 14

but then again, as i said, i wouldn't really know, i haven't paid much attention to her chest...
Title: Prisoner of Azkaban
Post by: DragonClaw on June 15, 2004, 11:09:37 am
I am referring to the future, when she IS full-breasted. :p

Despite that idea being really cool, maybe we should just drop the whole idea. Full-breasted really shouldn't be thrown around here... she's still only 13.

Is 14 to 17 not weird in Australia? He would be a Cradlerobber and she would be a slut. Unless the physical appearance wasn't so different.

3 years?
Title: Prisoner of Azkaban

Yeah but it's 3 years when she's still young.  If she was 16 and he was 19, maybe.
Title: Prisoner of Azkaban
Post by: Ghostavo on June 15, 2004, 01:45:29 pm
I think I understand what Knight Templar is trying to say... 14 is a bit young for a more "serious relationship" than those that 14 year old have... :nervous:
Title: Prisoner of Azkaban
Post by: J3Vr6 on June 15, 2004, 01:47:28 pm
Well it really depends on the customs of your country.  There are countries where it's fine for a 15 or 16 year old girl to go out with 30 year olds, so long as he's a professional.

That would be illegal :p

it's probably better if he was 17 and she was 14, regardless of how sick that sounds, but it's legal *shrugs* :shaking:

J3Vr6:

bah, I don't see 14 as young, but thats because I'm almost 16.
Ya I get what your saying... though it doesn't matter, he's still a good guy and surely he wouldn't do anything like that. :p
Title: Prisoner of Azkaban
Post by: Corsair on June 15, 2004, 01:52:51 pm
I'm actually not sure if it's illegal or not. A friend of mine was telling me about the law the other day...mainly because, at sixteen, she's rather keen on a certain 19-year-old Navy SEAL in training. And so she knows by heart exactly what she can and can't do.

I'm pretty sure that it's legal.

That's actually not illegal in Florida.  I think 19 is the legal age for a 16 year old girl to date, or up to 23...   I know it's either 19 or 23 that's the limit to not be statutory.
Title: Prisoner of Azkaban
Post by: Stealth on June 15, 2004, 01:54:49 pm
well personally, 14 i think is just that age that's too young for anyone over 16...  but sure she's cute... give her 5 years or so, and then it'll be fine :yes:

until then, however, i don't look at her boobs every time she appears in a scene ;)

Just look at the medieval times, 17 to 20 year olds would marry 12 to 13 year olds..

But we aren't talking medieval times, we were having a discussion on current dating customs :)

But yes.   In the past the dating age was significantly younger, primarily because the death age was a lot younger too.

I would like to talk about todays customs.  Who decides what's right and what's wrong?

This does not mean I think that it's ok to look at a fourteen year old and have impure thoughts, but that's human nature BTW.

When it comes to it, I actually thinks it's wrong. But that will not change the way I look at that person looking at her boobs on Harry Potter. :)

14 = Just crawling out of the thick of Puberty

17 = If he's into 14 year old girls, he's probably ****ed quite a bit.

Or, let me put it thsi way.

14 = Just getting into High School

17 = Junior or Senior.

And why has no one laughed at this yet?

When I was a senior, I dated a sophomore.  But she had turned 16 at the time.  I was 17.   That's not wierd.  A senior with a freshman I would think wierd, but then again, times have changed since I was in highschool 10 years ago.

When I was 25 I dated an 18 yr old, that's probably the youngest I had ever dated.  And I'll tell you right now, I don't think I'd ever do it again.  There was such a huuge gap between priorities and maturity.  It felt I was going out with a friggin high school girl.  Definitely wasn't worth my time.

My girl, which I've been with for almost 2 years now, is 23 while I'm 28.  The older you get, differences in ages matter less and less.  It's just that when you're younger, like in highschool, those difference seem huge b/c of the differences in maturity.

Ow, man... I can see none of you have ever lived in Holland :p If we'd make a fuss about every 14 yo girl dating (*cough*) a 17 yo boy we'd do nothing else :p

14 is dating age and sexual exploration :p Got a problem with that? Go and join the priesthood or something cuz times are changing :p

They were also dying at 30 :p

KT: three years is no difference to me, or, to be exact, around that age, 1 year is already such a difference ( teens change a lot then - back in college... her... your secondary school- I had a friend who was dating a girl two years older than him. Man was that funny to look at, her being two heads taller than him :p ) than it doesn't matter much if you add 1 or 2 to the equation.
Man, I'm 23, I'm not gonna diss a 20 years old chick just coz she's 3 years younger :doubt:

This thread hijack is just disturbing.

In fact, it is almost as disturbing as my thread on other board that turned from discussion about bad grammar on internet to a discussion about lesbian sex. Don't ask how.

As for myself... the movie wasn't bad, but serious lack of cyborg robot zombies killed it for me.

Therefore, as the PoA did not involve cyber robot zombies, it can not be as cool as something involving cyber robot zombies, because it did not involve cyber robot zombies. It does not matter that cyber robot zombies had no place at all in the movie, as they are cyber robot zombies, and therefore too cool to not be included in anything even remotely resembling a proper movie.
