Harry Potter vs Chạng vạng It was just revealed that Breaking Dawn part 2 is the shortest movie of the series. Deathly Hallows part 2 was also the shortest movie of the series. Coincidence?

LOL. This wasn't intentional. It's just a coincidence. Breaking Dawn just didn't have enough to make a lengthy film whereas the others did.

Omg. Deathly Hallows part 2 didn't have enough content to make it as long as the other movies

Lol, I can just imagine Bill Condon sitting at the computer thinking "I need to cut just one more minute so we can be like Harry Potter."

@omg_stop It was still a long film. It was 2 hours and 10 minutes. That's, like, 10 minutes shorter than the average HP film. Chill out.

You know, Breaking Dawn part 2 is only 1 minute shorter than the next shortest films. I doubt too much content was lacking...

DH2 was 2 hours and 5 minutes. Breaking Dawn part 2 is only 9 minutes shorter.
Such a lack of content. 9 whole minutes.

@cassie-1-2-3 No. I meant that it didn't have enough content to make a LENGTHY film (as in a film longer than 2 hours). Breaking Dawn Part 1 and 2 are about 1 hr and 45 minutes which is and average non-Twilight film. It'll be a long film with a lot of content if it was squished together. Separately, they're not. Deathly Hallows Part 1 and 2 were LONG movies with a lot of content which was why they were LONG MOVIES. Plus, I said long movies compared to the others (since they were 2 hours and some change).

Um, no.

Yes, Harry Potter movies are draggy and long, but Twilight movies are not short (according to your criteria of 2 hours).
You did see where I said BD2 is only 9 minutes shorter than DH2, right?
You said "That's, like, 10 minutes shorter than the average HP film. Chill out.". If only 10 minutes shorter constitutes a "chill out", I would think only 9 minutes would constitute for one to be even "Chiller".

DH2 is 125 minutes (2 hours and 5 minutes). BD2 is 116 minutes (1 hour and 56 minutes -That's only 4 minutes short of an hour.) (BD 1 is one minute longer)
ALL other Twilight and Harry Potter movies are longer than 2 hours.

If those 4 minutes means Breaking Dawn is short and lacks content, but 10 minutes shorter means "chill out"... Well, this new paradox is hilarious.


I'm only assuming, but I figured you only made that comment because it would look really stupid to vote against twilight in this pick, so you needed something negative to say about it to make up for it.

I was speaking of both Breaking Dawn Part 1 and Part 2. If it were all to be one movie (which it should have been) then it would have been a good movie with a lot of content (like the others). Separately (at least for BDP1) they don't which was why they're much much shorter than the others. I agree with you on the whole "draggy" thing when it comes to the first 6 HP films. As for the last two there really weren't any draggy scenes that wasn't relevant to the plot at all. Most of BDP1 was slow motion music montages and nature shots, anyway.

Your assumption is wrong. If there was a pick that between Alice and Umbridge I'd choose Alice and write as a comment as a comment "I love Alice". I wouldn't say "I love Alice oh and fuck Twilight". So yeah, your assumption is wrong. Very, very wrong.

LOL, the movie that LACKED CONTENT was longer than the really long movie with a lot of content. You trip over your own words all the time and it's so funny. You need to chill out. LOL

I said Breaking Dawn Part 1 and 2 didn't have enough content to make a LENGTHY film. Deathly Hallows Part 2 had enough content to make a long film but didn't have enough content to make it as long as the others (OMG 10 minutes shit just got real). So there, does that clarify that or should I add that I'm a stupid, biased Harry Potter fan, too?

Lol, I laughed because you said OOtp lacked content, even though it was longer than the movie you said had enough content.

It's one thing to say that Meyer copied the splitting of the movie into to parts but far fetched to assume that the timings where copied.

^ I kind of understand why the split it into two movies, though. When you really think about it, BD would be pretty rushed and kind of awkward if it were all one movie.

It's Mockingjay that needs to keep it all in one movie.

I suppose, I mean trying to condense all the details into one movie would be a pretty tedious task.
