rant of da day
why does a simple movie like harry potter, based on a book that is barely an inch thick, last for 3 hours?

everything is repeated 2 times (or more), in case, you (12 yrs old and below: short attention span) forgot the movie had mentioned it before.... everything needs to be spelled out in full. take for example, [miracle ending] phoenix drips its tears into harry's wound. harry has to proclaim "But of course! phoenix tears is able to cure poison"

they need to add enuff "additional" distractions, so that george lucas can't sue them for copying star wars.
