As I watched the movie, my continuing thought was "How well will the next part of the story be translated to the screen?" rather than "How entertaining is this film overall?" I have trouble answering the latter question because I was already entertained by watching a wonderful story dramatized, so I'll never know how I'd have reacted had I seen this movie without having read the books. Having read all four books in the series a few times each, I am overly familiar with the events in the story. There was so much anticipation leading up to its release, I simply enjoyed the experience of being there. But, like "The Phantom Menace," I've had a very hard time viewing it objectively.
