It's true. "Order of the Phoenix" (while my favorite book in the series) is muddled and incoherent as a movie. The only thing that makes it work, for me, is the added scene at the end where Voldemort tries to possess Harry. Definitely a series high point.

Easily my favorite movie in the series. It was deliberately written and paced like an old-fashioned British mystery thriller. That feeling of creeping paranoia in the scenes leading up to the third task is breathtaking. I cry every time I watch it.

I will never go to the movies with you.

Agreed. At its best, there's not much on television that could compare with "The X-Files," but "Fringe" was consistently great. A true classic.

The longer "Fringe" has been on the air, the harder it gets to wrap it up in a satisfactory fashion. It's the same problem J. K. Rowling had when she was faced with the task of concluding the "Harry Potter" series.

Given that "Arrested Development" already sort of reminds me of "Rashomon," this is unbelievably exciting.

"The Worst Day of Your Life" was the best of the lot. That book was so eerie and surreal.

I love this movie so much.

Every episode of FRINGE, with the exception of that awful season four finale. Also, every episode of Parks & Rec.
