If you want 16 hours of screen time for your story that's why god created miniseries.

I don't get why you even care. If you only want the shorter theatrical version, then watch that. Nobody's making you watch the Extended Edition.

And, maybe I want sixteen hours of cinematic quality screen time, instead of sixteen hours of television miniseries quality screen time. Huge difference there. I love the extended LotR films, and haven't watched a standard version since I got my set of extended films. Hence, I'm happy with my longer films, and you're happy with your abridged versions. Why take issue?



iSm, I do agree about Umbridge. I thought they captured her arc just fine and led us to despise her just as much as the book did. But so little was dealt with in regards to other important stuff, like Kreacher, Sirius, etc. that the film felt like it was only a trailer, but without a real film to go see afterward. I pray that they don't do that to HbP.
