Didn't like Watchmen all that much, surprisingly. But I did like the first two Harry Potter movies. After that, not so much.
I'm the only one I know that liked Watchmen :-\
Didn't Clint Eastwood do the first 2 Harry Potters? I liked those ones the best as well.

Oh Vesperia, never change... never change

I thought that Watchmen was awesome. I also think that the Harry Potter movies got better as more were made. I just saw Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince and, although it didn't have nearly as much action as the others, I thought it was surprisingly funny and still very entertaining. It's actually one of my favorite Harry Potter movies.

As for the director of the first two Harry Potter movies (Clint Eastwood? no offense, I almost lol'd), Chris Columbus did both.

Chris Columbus. I remember know, I used to make fun of him for the name.
But what, they both start with a C, and I don't follow the movie industry that much. Don't blame me.

I can't watch movies made from books that I've read. Otherwise, I get annoyed whenever they go off the path of the books. Whether it's wrong of me to be so harsh or not, that's just how I am. I always like the book better than the movie. When it comes to the first two Harry Potter's, I think they followed the books the most closely (most likely because they were the shortest books, as well as because Chris Columbus was the best director the movies have ever had), which is probably why I liked them better. Oh, and because the first Dumbledore was the best. If there is one thing that I don't like about movies three through six, it's the new Dumbledore. He just doesn't act the way JK Rowling portrays him, and it annoys me how much they butchered his character.
I get obsessively manic over things. It's a problem.

No problem. His coincidental name (shared with Christopher Columbus) is the only reason I remembered it.

You're right. Books are always better than the movies. I feel very sorry for those who think otherwise, as books allow you use your imagination and interpret the story in your own way. When you watch a "book movie" you're just watching the cast and crew's imagining/interpretation of the book. I do agree that Chris Columbus and the first Dumbledore were the best, but, offhand, I'm pretty sure that the actor of Gandalf of The Lord of the Rings series is the new Dumbledore, and I think he does a great job. The first one was the best though. As for movies differing from books, I always notice the small things too. It's just a little pet peeve of mine. I find Wikipedia a great place to find nearly all--if not all--differences between the books and their movie adaptations. As long as it's cited, it's true, so looking up a Harry Potter movie article and reading the appropriate section can be very helpful and interesting.

The Sound of Music was good. Too long for me to watch over and over. It's more of a seasonal movie for me.

Toy Story ninnyes.

Kidding, but probably The Dark Knight.
