And no, I'm not homophobic; I'm gay!<br /><br />I agree with you though about director David Yates. He seems to have drained the color (literally), fun and much of the magic out of the last couple installments. "Goblet of Fire" remains my favorite of the movies, because it contained a just-right mix of magic and menace, in my opinion.Reverendnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-206169726101426819.post-63522344833603132252009-08-01T12:51:25.952-05:002009-08-01T12:51:25.952-05:00Haha- how is everyone gay?

Do you believe everything you read about male guardians/teachers or are you just homophobic? <br /><br />On another note this movie was better than David Yates last installment. Order of the Phoenix was the worst excuse for a movie- there was no storyline. I honestly forgot Harry, Ron, and Hermione were real friends and not just thrown together because the Rowling books said to do so.<br /><br />Fortunately Half Blood had to be better and third time's a charm so the Deathly Hallows movie will have to be at least a 9/10. <br /><br />I can't understand why they cut out the end fight scene though. Without it Half Blood Prince seemed like a pit stop and not a movie on its own. <br /><br />As always the magic of these movies has been long gone. The little things such as that famous harry potter music and the small bits of magic that made the first 3 movies so thrilling is what Yates regards as "fluff." <br /><br />Whatever I guess. Yates will be a rich man solely because Rowling is a good storyteller... Where's Alfonso Cuaron when you need him?diananoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-206169726101426819.post-55825908190601867762009-07-31T00:34:35.242-05:002009-07-31T00:34:35.242-05:00Hmmmm, maybe re: Dumbledore & Slughorn.

Even as a heterosexual man, I picked up on some of the same subtleties that you mentioned in your review.

And, if you were serious about anything you said, my inability to respect other people's opinions. You could say I'm a bit uptight as Potter fans go.

However, since Rowling write one of her characters gay--if not overtly so--why couldn't there be other gay or lesbian characters in the series? All film viewers bring their personal "lenses" to every movie, and that includes the lens of homosexuality for those of us who are gay or lesbian.Reverendnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-206169726101426819.post-40193634878523736232009-07-29T15:02:11.011-05:002009-07-29T15:02:11.011-05:00Right, so you think they're all gay.

Not that I don;t have full respect and support of people of other sexual orientations, but the fact that you think that you think that Voldemort has the "hots" for Harry Potter is downright laughable.Kayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07325895690701699043noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-206169726101426819.post-41170583980809337142009-07-24T23:09:10.143-05:002009-07-24T23:09:10.143-05:00Harry potter and the half blood prince both are f...Harry potter and the half blood prince both are fantastic.
