$16 for the drive-thru that is a much better deal then going to the theaters....
Only for non action movies. The FM radio stations suck, even with my audio setup in the car. For other type movies that dont need theater sound its good. The other movie we saw was The Proposal (GF wanted to see that, I wanted to see public enemies, you know who won), which was fine to see there.

I must admit my daughter (now in college) started reading the books and I saw them laying around and started reading the books from the first to the last...My daughter came home when the last movie came out and wanted me to go with her and i did...The last movie was the weakest one yet.. I guess i got spoiled by the books...

I really liked the HP books...

Its better to watch the movies first before reading the books as they tend to have more content in them and you arnt so dissapointed when the story line changes subtly.

I've read the series as well and I'm not into reading

That's exactly why the wife didn't like the movie so much. She had read the book before seeing the movie and all I heard about it was they had skipped over so many details the book itself had that explained things.

I told her if they had tried to do all of that, it would still be in production today. there's only so much you can cram into a movie based on how long the movie is.

They crammed alot into the Lord of the Rings, which I enjoyed quite much. The time between sequels was too long for my taste and teh movies coulda been longer still

Lord of the Rings movies (all 3) we're the closest to the book of any book then movie I have ever seen...I read alot and love movies but that was just a true work of art!!!

Maybe that is why they took all the awards for 3 years running!!!
