Thats what I thought,
but at my local real IMAX they are saying its "An IMAX 3D Experience®"

im so confused

Maybe they just mean the commercials before the movie starts...   ;)  ;D
Or maybe it's an old commercial?

I think its just the idiots at the specific IMAX place.
I looked on the official IMAX website and it doesn't say it anywhere on there.

At the specific location though- their website says 3D- been trying to call but noone answers.

Why be mundane when you can be a Rennie?!

We're going tonight. I'm getting anxious.  I just keep thinking I'm going to be thoroughly disappointed.  We've read the book so many times I feel like I've already seen the movie in my head.  ;D

OH MY GOD THEY GOT IT RIGHT!!!!

It was soooo good. There was only one little qualm I had - Spoiler warning:They never showed or explained the Ravenclaw diadem at the Lovegood's. But I'm sure Luna will cover for it in the next half.End spoiler

But I am so emotionally drained. I was wimpering the whole tie with Dobby. But I bought an owl this afternoon at the Wizarding World, and I named him Dobby. I was really glad he was there to comfort me!

But I repeat OMG I LOVED THIS MOVIE!!!!


Please discuss.  ???

We got in to a sneak preview before midnight.  I have NEVER heard an audience that quiet.   I have to say they did the book justice.  Typically they have to cut chapters to make it work for the screen.  This time they only had to cut a paragraph or page here and there.  Very nice, and very well done.

It is certainly worth going back and seeing again. 

Now when does part 2 come out? ? ;D ;D
It is kind of strange watching your personal history become costume.

It was one of the best in the series! It is deff worth seeing again. And I believe pt 2 is out in July but I'm not 100% sure...

Spoiler alert!!!

Just saw it last night! They did do it justice!  Yes, there were some small details changed and omitted, but my god, that was INTENSE!!!!!!
During most of the movie, except for the funny scenes,  you could hear a pin drop.  The final Dobby scene was nicely done, oh how I cried!  The cliffhanger was a good spot to cut off.  I can't imagine how emotionally draining part 2 is going to be. I want to see it again!

Oh and I know true Potter fans already know how "dark" this movie is, but just a friendly warning:  The movie is pg 13.  May not be suitable for very young potter fans if they are sensitive to violence and frightening images. As I said before it is intense but fantastic!

So yesterday, to further prolong our Harry Potter celebration, one of my friends and I had a Potter Party! We made Troll Toenails, Snape's Stuffed Toadstools, Butterbeer (frozen and regular), Butterbeer cupcakes, Pumpkin Pasties, and Pumpkin shakes, and watched A Very Potter Musical. Fun times!

Your recomendation is good enought for me, My Queen.  I shall have to work seeing it into my hectic Holiday schedule.
5 thumbs up.  Most people only have two.  Must be a Wizard trick...  Maybe you can explain it to me on Friday?
