That's true a lot people don't watch movies if they're over two hours long. I never actually read the Lord of the Rings books but they must have a good job because I never noticed anything was missing from the movies. I would still watch Harry Potter if turned out to be a 4 hour movie. Longer movies like Lord of the Rings, Pearl Harbor and The Green Mile were worth the time and I've watched those many times. It's just a question of whether the writers are willing to compromise the integrity of the movie to keep it short. They may have opted to keep it short because generally the movies are made for teenagers and a lot of them do have a short attention span.

After watching this last Harry Potter I think I'm going to read the books so I can get the whole story. I may not be a teenager but I have a short attention span too. We'll see if I can make it threw a 900 page book lol

haha hey, that ain't right! Frodo decided to wear the ring in the third movie when he finally got to the volcano.

I think that its cool that people actually wear normal clothes in this Harry Potter. I thought it was great to make Dudley a wigger!

The 5th book was the worst, it was the biggest book with the least amount of things happening in it. I think the director did what he could...

I didn't think it wa bad... but i was just expecting like great things because it was my favourite book.

i got baked and watched it and thought it was redicuously gay, but extremely entertaining. I love hearing those silly little accents allong with wand waves and spells being thrown about. Some of that stuff is some trippy shit
