What the heck???

Rating: 1/10 (26 March 2006)

Okay, now I understand that everyone is all "oh, thank goodness they didn't stick so close to the book" in this movie, but may I say that: a. They weren't that close in the first two b. Who the heck are you kidding?? The similarities with the book I could count on one hand.
Okay let's see what I would change...
1. Who the heck needs that much angst in a movie based on the third book?? Try the fifth book and you'll still be way over it. THERE IS NO NEED FOR THAT MUCH ANGST EVER!!!!!!!!!!!! 2. Why the heck did we need that lame shrunken head. That was just stupid. Is there anyone who can say that they really liked the shrunken head?? It's like JarJar Binks from Episode 1: supposed to be funny, but just annoying.
3. We need to know about Harry's past. That's one of the main plots throughout the books, and that much is kinda important in the fifth book to learn this stuff 4. When Disney's Jungle Book was made, the writer was expressly told not to read the book, just make the movie based off of "a boy raised by wolves who must return to a village." Did they do this with this movie too?? 5. The reason Crabbe isn't there is that he had to take exams. Couldn't they tape it another day?? How hard is that?? That being said, there is one thing I must commend Alfonso Cuaron for: duping a bunch of people into watching and/or buying this movie.
