Harry Potter is my biggest obssession. I'm not gonna lie. Doctor Who and Music are a close second and third, but I'm a Harry Potter fan at heart.
And this week the last movie makes it to the big screen.
Where did all the time go? It seems like yesterday that Dan, Emma, Rupert, Tom and alll those other kids were like, ten. And Alan Ricman, Michael Gambon, and Maggie Smith weren't as old as they are now.
Wow. That's all I can say. Time flies and we're finally at the last chapter.
I'll be attending a Midnight Premiere here in town with this family that I love a lot from our chruch (Thanks Z's!) who bought my ticket with their own. I'm quite looking forward to all the nice chaos out there.
I have faith in the film makers. Part 1 was fantastic, and I mean that as a Harry Potter fan and a film critic. Sure it was a little boring but I think that was the point, so we'd a have a nice contrast with the huge battle that ensues here.
For those of you who haven't read the books, these next parts are gonna contain some spoilers so all us supa supa fans can nerd out together :)
THINGS I'M EXCITED ABOUT:
Helena Bonham Carter playing Hermione playing Bellatrix.
DRAGON DRAGON DRAGON DRAGON! (I have a thing for dragons)
Ron and Hermione's big kiss in the Chamber of Secrets ( Yes, deep deep deep deep down I'm an old softie. Sometimes).
The Prince's Tale. Oh God, I'm going to try and keep crying to a minumum because I don't want to be too distracting to all the other Vulcans watching, but oh God. So sad.
Molly Weasly and Bellatrix facing off (quite possibly my favorite part of the Final Battle).
Many other things that will come to mind when I'm reviewing the movie here.
THINGS THAT KIND OF LOOK OFF:
This is referring mostly to the things I've seen in the trailer.
Harry and Voldemort going off the cliff. What was that all about? I've been puzzling over it in my spare time and I can't work out how that fits in.
Some other little details. Way too excited.
A random sampling of things that I think about. It could be books, movies, musicals, people, anything.

Hunger Games Movies Do's and Don'ts
Allrigt, you know what the Hunger Games is. You have to by now. But if you don't, here goes:
*deep dramatic voice*
In the post apocalyptic place where America once was lies PANEM! Twelve Districts, one captiol and the Hunger Games every year.
Basically, the Captiol sends two tributes from each district to fight to the death in an arena for their enjoyment. And whoever is the last one standing gets fame, glory, immunity from other games, and food for their poor districts.
Katniss and Peeta get sent to the games, yadda yadda. I won't tell you the rest because you probably know it by now.
Anyway, Lion's Gate is doing a movie adaption of it. And here's what's up:
They've approached ALEX PETTYFER as Peeta. Now I think this would be fine but for one thing.....
Alex is a fan girl's dream, and then the Hunger Games will turn into Twilight if he is cast.
Otherwise, I think he'd be cool.
THE ACTRESSESS FIGHTING FOR KATNISS:
Oh my gummy bears are actressess desperate these days! Alyson Stoner and Jodelle Ferland, both former Katniss hopefuls have posted pictures of themselves dressed up as Katniss, complete with fake bows and climbing rocks. I SAY THIS IS IMPROPER! The Hunger Games was all about media fraud and propaganda and fame and other things. These two should be condemned from Katniss Movie Portrayal.
IT'S A BOOK TO MOVIE ADAPTION
I mean, honestly, there's going to be something wrong. We all know it. let's just set our expectations low and see what happens.
