It's obviously a huge departure from the colorful magical atmosphere of the other films...  O_0

Who knows, maybe my least favorite HP book will become my favorite HP movie  befuddlement

I fucking love Harry Potter.  baddood;

I just saw the trailer for the first time 5 minutes ago, for some reason.  befuddlement

I prefer the books, but I still try to make it to the movies' midnight releases. I'm in love with Rupert grint.  baddood;

I have the autograph of tom Salta, the composer for the music from the trailer for the second Harry Potter movie.  O_0 But I was in fucking Edinburgh and I DIDN'T GO TO THE ELEPHANT HOUSE. URGH.

furthermore, I want to rad all of the original books. I can't afford to rebuy them all from England though. ;-;

oh

and I love that little tune that they overuse in all the HP movies

It's my ringtone.

...what the fuck are you talking about? Of course I've read them. The american versions. I want to read the originals.

For some reason everyone appears to be oblivious to the fact that the books were altered for the American market.

I'm a bigger HP fan than all of you, so stfu before I get violent.  baddood;

Hell, even look at the difference from the original:

Cut out more in the original versions?

that makes no sense.

You're right, the only difference is that they speak "british" over there and "American" over here.

Nonetheless, I want them. I'd prefer to read through those when I re-complete the series, instead of my beat up copies. All i'm saying is the next time I purchase my harry potter set (because mine is absolutely torn apart), it will consist of the original books.

Sorry, I have a life and sitting in a dark room and reading for ten hours is not my idea of fun. You still should have used a spoiler tag you idiot. As for whether you will be banned or not is not up to me, but it is long over due.

Kono, Hiro is twisting the truth, so don't listen to him. And aside from the fact that spoiler tags are important, he is right; the book has been out for practically a year now, don't you think you should have read it by now?

Anyway, I suggest you get to it.

I am sometimes ashamed to admit that I got Deathly Hallows the day it came out and read the entire thing that day.

But what can I say? Even if the books aren't particularly amazing or anything, they had a very interesting story at the core...and I was really eager to finally finish that story. It was like a mystery I first learned of in 4th grade or something like that, so it had to be finished.

I'm not too keen on the movies, honestly, because I hate how much gets changed and all and it just makes it hard for me to enjoy them to the fullest. But the movies aren't way too horrible I guess...at least they look pretty, if nothing else.

but sitting in a dark room and reading internet posts for ten hours is your idea of fun

but don't worry harry comes back to life or something

idk i never read it but i read a list of all the spoilers and exact page numbers of when each character dies on the internet like a day before the book came out. it was fun reading them all off to my mom and brother when they came back from the midnight release. befuddlement

Anyways I was never too much of a harry potter fan, but the rest of my family is pretty nuts about harry potter. They went to every midnight


I only got the book at midnight for 5, 6, qand 7. :(


And I didn't wait in line or anything, just walked to the 24-hour grocery store and got it.  doodella;

I'm actually surprised I read all of the 6rth book before that one giant spoiler got to me.  doodthing;
