Harrry gettin' grinded down

One of the big things discussed last week amongst the "film people" is why Grindhouse bombed so bad. And it did, badly. It wasnt a bad movie, it just didnt do well. Many people are pointing to it's 3+ hour running time and america's rediculously short attention span as a reason (I really dont think that was it, i thnk the marketing was all wrong, they didnt handle it right). anyway, other studios are started to panic when they see the mess that the Weinstein brothers have found themselves in, and are cutting their movies down. WB is one of these studios, and they are DEMANDING that david yates to come in cut down the running time of the next harry potter movie, "harry potter and the order of the phoenix". how the hell long was the movie anyway? the book in the longest in the series to date, and you can only cut out so much before people starting getting lost in the plot. i think this is going to piss of A LOT of people, my sister and i included. Potter fans are pretty rabid when it comes to this subject. They feel that the previous films have already been subjected to too much scissor time, with many of the subplots (even aspects of the main plots) gone completely. I would rather see a long, well made and well developed film, as opposed to a paniced lets cut out hlaf the shit so we can save money film. well, all i can say is, hey hollywood, Fuck you!
