Harry Potter- round 6-who's ready?

I've already committed to seeing this with friends, and I know I'll enjoy many of the cast (casting has been an overall strength of this series) - but I also know I'll find the experience exhausting. These two and a half hour fantasies, though I kind of like them, somehow grate on me with their overbearing, noisy soundtracks, flashy swoopy camera-work, highly variable CG critters, overstuffed narratives and so on. I like them better when I can watch them in shorter installments at home. That, and when I closed the cover on "Deathly Hallows," I really felt like I had given an extraordinary chunk of my life-minutes to Mr. P and friends. I guess I feel obliged to see the movie series through, but I really wish I was relishing the prospect, rather than half-dreading it.
