Well, you have to admit that it's tolerably entertaining at least, isn't it? Or did you seriously want to walk out of the theater every minute because it was so bad? Ktspktsp found himself able to at least sit through it, even though he had no desire to see the movie in the first place (he also has not read the books, but he was there to keep me company).
I admit that if the only reason you are going to Harry Potter is because other people are taking you, and not because you read the books and know all the background and details (many of which they omit, due to time limits, in the movie), then yeah, it's going to be disappointing. I really don't know how they can make the movies better, because to do so they would have to include so much more material and the film would go to like 3 hours or something. I think the films are really only made for people who read the books, unfortunately.
