PoA
So, the Nazgul and I went to the English language midnight premiere of "Prisoner of Azkaban" here in Munich.
It was a very grown-up audience; we two were the only ones in costume, but as we know that Where We Are Is Up, we didn't mind. My huge witch's hat made quite a splash, and the people in the row behind us sighed audibly with relief when I took it off before the movie began.
Just a few remarks:
The werewolf: Gah!! Euuchhh!! So not it! Whoever designed that creature should be fired summarily and condemned to the hell of doing wire removal for third-rate superhero action movies.
That. Wasn't. Moony.
Am in denial.
The chain of clues for Sirius/Remus: all missing. More than made up for by a) Snape's pointedly nasty "Old married couple" remark, and b) that desperate, passionate blather Sirius spouts at Remus to keep him from changing. The next time I see the movie, I must disregard the action in the foreground of that scene and listen solely to what Sirius says.
They hugged very intensely in the Shrieking Shack, too.
Buckbeak was well done.
While I was cycling home, I noticed a fat orange moon hanging low in the sky. So it was actually werewolf night tonight...

But everything was fine and made sense in the context, really. Apart from the terrible were-CGI.
*quietly goes and spews forth popcorn at the thought of the beastie*
Ahh, and Sirius grabbing Remus and trying to get through to him so he wouldn't change, and even succeeding for a while - that was a classic moment that shall be much considered in the months to come, I think.
