I don't care what you others may think....

I was thoroughly disappointed with PoA. Maybe it's because I am 21, and I'm not into all the fun, silly stuff; or maybe because I like the dark stuff more than younger kids would. Either way, I just felt that this story and all the left out scenes were too important to the continuance of the whole Harry Potter story to have been left out or not explained. I actually enjoyed the first two movies a whole lot. GoF is nearly twice the size of PoA, and if anyone thinks they can fit the whole story into less than at least 3 1/2 hours, without making two movies of it, they must be mental. I liked Malfoy always being a bully, but I liked him being taught the hard way who was really in charge. I didn't like seeing him near tears though, it was kinda out of character. I also wanted to see Snape under the Mobilus Corpus, or whatever, spell; where he was purposely allowed to hit his head along the tunnel. And I didn't care to much for the Shrunken heads, but once again maybe it's because of my age. They need to get over the whole cheesy crap, the shortening films, and trying to sugarcoat the whole troublesome and dark reality of the great Harry Potter stories, even if they have to make it PG-13. Like that is a bad thing!!! I want to see some reall action like in the first two movies. I want to see Snape and Harry go at it. I want to see the Death Eaters show their faces once and for all. Am I wrong for wanting this?
