Which is better? I swear, the book is better..espeically for the third one...
but Daniel Radcliffe is hot O_O

Hmm..I prefer the book to the movies, but you read my mind babypiggy

I just adore Daniel Radcliffe...

Yep! Dan Radcliffe rocks!

I think the movies are great! But the books have more detail and information in them...so I'll say books for now.

I'd say the books. Although I do like the movies, the books are just.. better as I've discovered from reading four of them. I'll start to read the fifth one eventually.

I love the books!Â They are so much better than the movie,Â Â
There are soo many more details and the imagination has to be one of the best things there is!Â Â And the book is true to the author.Â (because she wrote it of course)
I think the movies just ruin it although I will watch them when they come out on DVD...Â Because who want's to miss out in seeing Ronnie in action??

But that's just me!

I've read all 6 books so far, and I've seen only the 3 movies, but I'm going to join the hype and say the books. They explain more and allow you to understand the characters on a more personal level. The movies basically let you view the characters, but the books allow you to be the characters! A truly good book can help you to travel all over the world and you never have to leave your chair!

I'm agree with u moezy chan, the movies just help you to imagine the character while you are readingÂ

The movies always cut the best part of the book, I totally dislike the 3rd movie because of thatÂ

it could be better
And i can't wait fot the next bookÂ

Same here, but at the same time, I almost don't want the 7th book to come out, because once it does, the books are finished. There won't be anything after that. Much like when I was watching the last episode of CCS. I was happy to finally see the whole series, but it's all over now.

I'll say this just once:

Movies and Books are two different mediums, because of that fact they can never be identical (due to time and money constraints)

Movies are only *based*, remember that, based on the book, they use the characters and some (but not all) of the plot line.

Base point: Book turned into movie can never been totally the same.

My two cents.

Go SLi! ^^

I have mixed feelings for the 7th book too just like moezy-chan. I don't want to it come out because the series is going to end. Hence, the movies will end.
Yet I want it to come out because this is the book that will wrap everything up, and all the mysteries become clear to us.

I like the movies better then the books because the movies I want to see more then once, but the books I read once and then their packed away.

Sabrina · « **Reply #11 on:** November 25 2005, 03:53 am »

I like books better than movies...When I saw first movie - It's was so awfull.....I didn't like it, so I haven't see or I don't see other movies...you can imagine yourself when you read books but when you go to movies someone else have imagine his own image about Potter-story.

LSD · « **Reply #12 on:** November 25 2005, 11:56 am »

For me the 3rd one was totally a lost of money, they cut the best parts!!!! T_T#
but i think this movie is going to be a little better, hope so. The commercials are pretty good, i must wait until tuesday.

I love the book better but I agree that Daniel Radcliffe is sooooo d**n handsome! *fangirlish scream* The books give us the freedom to imagine our own Hogwarts and characters...

I agree, I prefer the books more.

Yes, the 3rd movie sort of died...

but the 5th book wasn't as good also. I wonder what parts they're going to cut out in this movie...

FrontMission · « **Reply #16 on:** November 26 2005, 01:47 pm »

I perfer the book cause there are much more details that the movie left out.

Zeldi · « **Reply #17 on:** November 30 2005, 12:36 am »

I think the movies are Great! ^^ But the books have more detail and information in them! so i i'll go with books! ^^

sugahcat · « **Reply #19 on:** December 03 2005, 08:39 am »

I have to say the books because I prefer what my imagination does than what Hollywood came up with

Though Alan Rickman rocks the world.

I do still like the movies - I just prefer the books
