Youch!
Bij, it is in need of more of your regular punchy style and wit. Here
are some other things to make fun of:
- The melodramatic ending.
- The casting call for every British actor in creation.
- That red-headed kid.
- "Wizard chess"
- The incredibly ponderous length of the thing.
- The complex but touching homoerotic symbolism when Harry picks
out his wand.
- The faces the kids made instead of acting (although I actually
thought they were pretty good kid actors.)
- The lack of narrative.
- The living hell of a Director's Cut, if one ever comes out.
And on and on.
