The Chosen One~ HP

I've just watched Harry Potter and The Half Blood Prince yesterday and it was well, a good movie I would say. It was very nice to see that the director has put in the effort to squeeze in a bit of everything from all the chapters in the book. Of course, I don't expect a perfect 100% movie that will blow me away, but this is good enough and I'm satisfied as a Harry Potter fan who has been following the movie since the release of HP and The Socerer's Stone. You've gotta watch the movie!

The best part which I think and is still playing vividly in my mind is where Dumbledore waved his wand and casted the spell which set the whole cave on fire and golden flames were swirling and encircling the two of them. This is when Harry got the opportunity to save himself and get to Dumbledore. Also in this movie, they included a lot of scenes which took place in the towers, revealing such beautiful and breath taking landscape (although I know most of them is just fake) like those facing the Great Lake, the Quidditch pitch, and a few more which I couldn't quite recall now. I honestly enjoyed watching every part of the movie (all 6 of them so far!) because its just so enchanting and magical ^_^

I've decided to put up a series of pictures comparing the HP trio from the 1st movie, Harry Potter and the Socerer's Stone till the latest installment, Harry Potter and The Half Blood Prince.


Harry Potter and The Socerer's Stone
As you can see, the trio here were just tiny tots about 10-12 years of age...lol Ron looked the cutest when he was younger...and Harry was just...Harry... =) the boy who lived in the cupboard under the stairs finally found out that he IS the boy who lived, the chosen one...


Harry Potter and The Chamber of SecretsThey've grown quite a lot here compared to the first movie. The most obvious thing is their height and voices. Boy were they so much more different than before...Harry's looking more matured here...too matured for a 12 yr old I think..haha


Harry Potter and The Prisoner of AzkabanI like Harry the most in this 3rd movie. Most probably it's because of the cool spiky hairstyle and how matured he has been compared to the previous 2 movies. I love his look in this movie among the other installments. And of course, Ron and Hermione did grow a lot too. She's much prettier (although she's not suppose to be, according to the book!) and he's grown very much into a young adult and no more the cute 'lil red head in Year 1. Uniforms have changed too, to a cloak with red sidelines (and its cool!). No more fully black.


Harry Potter and The Goblet of Fire
Here, we see that they've obviously outgrown their characters. The trio obviously don't look like a bunch of 14 year olds. Harry's lock of hair was..erm a bit too much? Hermione is getting too pretty already! LoL and Ron is getting em...too grown up and looks TOTALLY different from the Ron we see in the first picture. But anyway this movie was the most interesting one to me, because we have the Triwizard Tournament! Yay and my room is still full of HP posters, mostly from this particular movie which was bought about 2 to 3 years back? LOL and they're still up on my wall! ~ I see the Chalice of Champions!


Harry Potter and The Order of The Phoenix
This is the fifth installment of the Harry Potter series and things are getting more complicated. Characters start to die, as in this movie was Sirius Black @ padfoot. New casts were introduced, Cho Chang, Luna Lovegood, Dolores Umbridge, and we have a battle scene between Voldermort and Dumbledore in the Ministry of Magic itself. The only part I'm not very satisfied is Cho Chang's fakeness. Gosh she's so friggin fake, with all the fake accents and atitude. LoL I wouldn't deny that there was a speck of jealousy in there. XD But overall, this movie is fantastic!


Harry Potter and The Half Blood Prince
Finally the long awaited sequel...the half blood prince. *Try comparing this pic and the pic in the Socerer's Stone and see how they've grown.* (Even Daniel's gone naked with a horse and a model! Rupert's been in a bed scene before and Emma's entering the Ivy League this fall...) I couldn't quite recall most of the story because the last time I read the book was close to 4 yrs ago! And I've only read it once...lol. So this is the 6th and second last movie, the final one is about to come...and then that will be it. No more Harry Potter....sob sob...
