I liked the third movie because of the style, mostly. It's really the only one that I've enjoyed enough to watch multiple times. I think that the sheer volume of material in the later books doesn't allow for a movie adaptation that truly captures the essence of the novel. In my opinion, it's not necessarily the plot of the Harry Potter novels that makes them so enjoyable, but the nuance and back story that truly make it worthwhile, and I really think that's what you can't really get in a movie. ]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Andrew]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Oct 11th 2007 1:50AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Downloadable files coming to next Harry Potter DVD]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2007/10/10/downloadable-files-coming-to-next-harry-potter-dvd/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2007/10/10/downloadable-files-coming-to-next-harry-potter-dvd/</guid><description><![CDATA[Andrew and tits, you guys nailed it.<br><br>The problem with the movie isn't the movie, but the book.  The thing that made the books so great was the detail and the backstory and the way it all fit together.<br><br>When we walked out of that movie, I said, "Man that was short."  You need a 4 or 5 hour director's cut to make that movie have the work of art that the book is.  The setup at Sirius' house was completely absent compared to the book.<br><br>I'm praying that they made that 4 hour director's cut, and that's something that would make me buy the movie twice. (unlike star wars and Lucas' 5min extra cut)<br><br>I welcome premade downloads.  That way, I can quit making them myself.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[andy]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Oct 11th 2007 10:23AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Downloadable files coming to next Harry Potter DVD]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2007/10/10/downloadable-files-coming-to-next-harry-potter-dvd/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2007/10/10/downloadable-files-coming-to-next-harry-potter-dvd/</guid><description><![CDATA[*ding* One order of pheonix on rye coming up]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Bob Brown]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Oct 11th 2007 1:22AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Downloadable files coming to next Harry Potter DVD]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2007/10/10/downloadable-files-coming-to-next-harry-potter-dvd/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2007/10/10/downloadable-files-coming-to-next-harry-potter-dvd/</guid><description><![CDATA[I think you're already seeing this.<br><br>IIRC the Target version of 300 had a version for your portable device.

The best movies ever put into cinemas are Harry Potter movies according to rottentomatoes.com, just goes to show how the brits are always number one at everything.

British TV and Cinema is the best in the world. ]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[britainforever24]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Oct 11th 2007 1:45AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Downloadable files coming to next Harry Potter DVD]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2007/10/10/downloadable-files-coming-to-next-harry-potter-dvd/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2007/10/10/downloadable-files-coming-to-next-harry-potter-dvd/</guid><description><![CDATA[Armericas got talent came first.<br>get your facts straight before you mouth off.

My guess is iTunes and Amazon Unbox. Both easy to use and I know iTunes can tie a promo code directly to a specific title or titles, Unbox is probably the same. Plus DRM is built into the files when you download them. Probably just enter the code on a little card included in the DVD case and it's downloaded and you can load it straight to your iPod or whatever.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[macmankev]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Oct 11th 2007 3:42AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Downloadable files coming to next Harry Potter DVD]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2007/10/10/downloadable-files-coming-to-next-harry-potter-dvd/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2007/10/10/downloadable-files-coming-to-next-harry-potter-dvd/</guid><description><![CDATA[Still.... you gotta admit...

Can't remember the price, but with Wal-Mart already the #1 seller of DVDs, and them already doing something similar, it seems likely that it could be a "Wal-Mart Exclusive". Now before you folks start flaming me for goign into a Wal-Mart, keep in mind I live in the sticks (literally I live in a forest) and the Wal-Mart is the only non-grocery-only store within a 1/2 hr drive.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[joel]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Oct 11th 2007 6:46PM</pubDate></item></channel></rss>
