I KNOOOOOW I rewatched the first six movies over the course of this past week and was like "ICKLE CHILDREN ;~; wait hermione's hair isn't bushy >:|" but then I rolled with it.
Varying the places RLY helped show the passage of time, you're totally right about that. I think it was cool for another reason -- people got to see all the different scenery in Britain. Logically I know the entire countryside is not all boring dreary foggy whatever but SEEING so many unusual places in the movie was AWESOME. AWESOME I SAY.
The visuals/the pacing of the camping actually kind of erases the argument that the books need to be condensed to be correct for a movie format. They could have done so much!!
lol possibly unpopular opinion but I wish Yates had been directing from the get-go. IDEK how much responsibility he has for how his movies have turned out but IDC. I think they've only improved since he's come on. IMAGINE HOW THE FIRST ONES COULD'VE BEEN WITHOUT CHRIS COLUMBUS.
AHAHA YEAAAAH I remember thinking "FUCK YOU YOU CAN'T HAVE MY MONEY fine you can have it" but now idc it'll be sweet. I bet/hope/fear the second part is going to be like 3/3.5 hours long. MY BODY IS READY.
