Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 2: initial reaction (SPOILERS!!)
- WHAT THE FUCK. VOLDEMORT’S DEATH WAS SOME MOTHERFUCKING BULL. SHIT. THE WHOLE POINT IS THAT WHEN HARRY COMES BACK FROM THE DEAD, NEVILLE FUCKING KILLS THE SNAKE ASAP BECAUSE THAT MOTHERFUCKER NEEDS TO DIE THE FUCK DEAD, AND THEN WHEN THE VERY VERY SHORT FINAL BATTLE BETWEEN HARRY AND VOLDEMORT RESULTS IN VOLDEMORT SIMPLY DYING, LIKE A MORTAL MAN, NOT FUCKING DISINTEGRATING INTO THE AIR SO HARRY CAN BREATHE IN THE LOVELY PARTICLES OF THE MONSTER HE JUST RID HIMSELF OF, BECAUSE THE WHOLE POINT IS THAT WITHOUT THE HORCRUXES VOLDEMORT IS JUST AN EVIL MORTAL MAN LIKE HE WAS ALL ALONG: HOW THE FUCK DID THEY MANAGE TO MESS THAT ONE UP?!? - WHY WAS HARRY SUICIDAL AT THE END AND ABOUT TO JUMP OFF THAT MOTHERFUCKING CLIFF. FUCKING HELL HARRY FIX YOUR GODDAMN WAND BEFORE BREAKING THAT MOTHERFUCKING ELDER WAND IN HALF. WHERE ARE YOUR BRAINS - Hermione didn’t age a single day during the epilogue - The only tears I shed were the ones shed whilst I was laughing out of despair, and as my friend Rylinn was doing basically the same thing, I’m not alone in this: it’s not that the movie itself was bad but there were so many moments when I just looked at her and was like WHAT THE FUCK IS THIS DID YOU JUST SEE THAT (ex: SLOW MOTION ELDER WAND THROWING) slash/moments when the whole theater laughed (I think it was more like nervous laughter/HAHAH VOLDEMORT YOU SUCK laughter, not ridiculing laughter if that makes sense) - I’ve always prided myself, if one can pride oneself on such a thing, on being able to separate the movies from the books, so I can enjoy the movie without comparing it to the book all the way through: but as this was the FINAL EVER Harry Potter movie and it’s in TWO MOTHERFUCKING PARTS, I THINK WE CAN EXPECT A MORE SATISFYING CONCLUSION TO SEVEN DECENT-TO-GOOD MOVIES - NOT TO MENTION A CONCLUSION TO THE ABSOLUTELY WONDERFUL IN EVERY WAY BOOK - Like I feel bad because I love the actor trio (like so much) + love the movies in spite of their flaws, but this one just wasn’t satisfying - GODDAMN - I’M NOT EVEN MAD I’M JUST INSANE WITH DESPAIR OR LET DOWN-INESS OR SOMETHING - I NEED TO REWATCH THIS MOVIE WHEN I HAVE SEVERELY LOWERED EXPECTATIONS - I SHOULD HAVE REALIZED THAT HALF THE FINAL BATTLE OF HOGWARTS IS ONLY SO DEVASTATING BECAUSE OF THE COMMENTARY THAT TEXT IS ABLE TO PROVIDE - SUCH AS “THE FOREST AGAIN” - THERE’S NO WAY THAT COULD BE REPLICATED AS WELL IN A MOVIE - SO THAT’S NOT REALLY THE MOVIE’S FAULT - IT WAS A PRETTY GOOD MOVIE - TO BE HONEST - BUT SINCE I FUCKING ADORE DEATHLY HALLOWS, THE BOOK, I’M GOING TO GO READ THAT AND WEEP MYSELF TO SLEEP/JK I’M PROBABLY NOT GOING TO SLEEP TONIGHT - BUT I DEFINITELY AM 100% GLAD I WENT TO THE MIDNIGHT PREMIERE - AND I STILL RECOMMEND THE MOVIE - AND I WILL PROBABLY WATCH IT SEVERAL HUNDRED TIMES - BUT SERIOUSLY - THAT WAS SOME BULLSHIT - Also I felt like I was watching Rupert and Emma act rather than Ron and Hermione being their fineass selves - Mostly because HERMIONE AND RON WEREN’T IN THE FUCKING MOVIE LIKE AT ALL - EXCEPT WHEN THEY WERE BEING TOTALLY UNLIKE THEMSELVES SUCH AS WHEN THEY FUCKING SAW HARRY ABOUT TO KILL HIMSELF AND LET HIM GO - IT’S SO MUCH MORE SAD + REALISTIC FOR THEM TO NEVER KNOW WHAT HE WAS PLANNING TO DO - UGH - But Snape/Alan Rickman + Mcgonagall/Maggie Smith were PERFECT, like so much, AS ALWAYS - And I’m glad they kept in a lot of the lines from the book - Epilogue kids were cute - But Albus Severus Potter is still a ridiculous name - I’M SO PISSED THAT THE FINAL BATTLE WAS A) 20 FUCKING MINUTES LONG AND B) ISOLATED, EVEN THOUGH I ALREADY KNEW IT WAS GOING TO BE AND ALSO I UNDERSTAND THEY WANTED TO PUT THE FOCUS ON V+HP AND C) THEY DIDN’T EVEN FUCKING SAY AVADA KEDAVRA AND EXPELLIARMUS OUT LOUD. ARE YOU JOKING THAT’S LIKE THE MOST CATHARTIC MOMENT OF THE BOOK
