Sorry, I thought it was wonderful!
While this 3rd movie in the Anne of Green Gables series was very different---and I did miss the quaintness of the others---I still thought it was wonderful, just in a different way. There is all the warmth, and it has the feel of what happens when you grow up and leave the comfortable things of childhood, while still keeping the wonderful morals and warmth of the tale, and in keeping with Anne's character.

Excited to receive great product!
I received my DVD very quickly, in great condition, and in good packaging. I thoroughly enjoyed watching my purchase and thank Amazon for being so prompt and professional in handling my transaction. I'm very satisfied and will use Amazon again for future purchases.

Does not go well with Anne of Green Gables I, II
I actually saw this movie many years ago and forget how disappointed I was. I recently saw the first and second movie, own the second movie, and wanted to purchase the whole set;but then I just saw the third one -- Its a good thing I viewed this movie again to remind me of how bad it is, stopping me from owning the third one. I was so disgusted with how Anne of Green Gables The Continuing Story lacked so many elements that made the first two so wonderful. This movie came out 13 years after the second movie and the characters not only have aged but have changed so much. It is not at all interesting for the audiences dedicated to the first two. However, on the other hand, if I were to view this one with no connection to the first two it would be okay. I was just not interested enough to watch the third one again or own it because it is so different with dramatic changes and the characters or scenes do not grab your attention.

Definetly adds to the series!!!
I was so worried that I wouldnt like this after all the negative reviews...and Im not a huge fan of third movies made years after the originals (a la Godfather III). Further, I can completely understand why some people didnt like this addition...its a complete departure from the books, and at times I felt that it lacked a sense continuity (you get the sense that much more time has gone by than should have elapsed).
That said, I loved it. For the first time Anne and Gilbert are completely in love, and there isnt so much tumultuous fighting. Also, although contrived, the plot is an extremely romantic wartime whirlwind, which thoroughly held my interest. I think it held to the spirit of both Anne and Gilbert, and the fact that they're older and it feels like things have changed with time, makes it all seem more like a genuine life story being lived and adds this sweet sense of nostalgia and of growing up and moving on. Anyway, I may be alone, but Im so happy they made this movie and honestly, Im relieved that I liked it...because now I get to add more hours to the story whenever I feel like rewatching it.
And I would say to anyone who has yet to see it, "Try to like it"...I think it can add alot to the series if you want it to...

Viewer discretion is advised!!!
If you loved the first 2 annes, do NOT watch the 3rd one. Personally, I think the movie should be recalled by the FDA due to the hazardous and painful effects on the hearts and minds of Anne fans everywhere. Might as well watch Anne and Gilbert get divorced. That actually might be less painful. They should just remake it. I'll chip in my $0.02(literally and metaphorically) to help fund a redo of the 3rd one; and they should only release it to the unsuspecting public if it's deemed viewable by Anne fans. Anyone want to petition/hold fundraisers for a remake? In the mean time, just reread the books and use your Anne-like imagination.

Dear Mr. Sullivan-
In case you are listening--I have GREAT ideas for the remake, just email me and we'll talk;-)
