yeah, i'd agree with that... i'd also agree that i was just as guilty for it as some others... but anyways i'm frustrated because i'm going to be camping about 100 miles away from home when my book gets here, so i wont be able to read it until atleast monday or tuesday.

Saw the movie.

It was what I expected.

The book crammed into 2 hours. Blech.

It was still good, but the movies are nothing compared to the books.

I can't wait to get my new book on Thursday (well, technically Friday). :)

Saw the movie last night. Very good IMO. So much attention to detail in this movie. It most certainly was not a book crammed into a two hour movie. It was a detailed two and a half hour movie about a book. And Luna Lovegood was really good. They depicted her better than I could've imagined. I like the movie version of her much more than the book version of her. Those two are so going to hook up.

I think you can't actually compare film and book...the book is just that much longer with so many tiny details and side stories etc....I liked the film though but there are some things that really disturbed me:

Cho has blabbed..I mean wtf ??? It was her friend who did it on her own account...no Veritaserum and the relationship Harry - Cho didn't only break up because of that..that's a bit too much of "artistic freedom"...

and the struggle against Voldemort who is possessing him....Of course he did possess him in the book too but there he couldn't stand possessing him because Harry's soul is whole and untarnished..it was Voldemort who experienced agony...I think this is something of great importance...

The list goes on and on actually..and that's why I really have to say that book and film are two different worlds. Both good but not really the same thing...

I'm starting to get really paranoid about spoilers.

2 years ago you couldn't go on a forum without being bombarded with topics like "SNAPE KILLS DUMBLEDORE", so once I have the book, I plan on shutting myself away from anything related to the internet.

Yeah I was watching the news the other day. Apparently the entire book is already online for reading. Page by page someone snapped pictures. I'm staying away from any forums because I do NOT want to spoil it.

Its a shame that its online.

I will harm anyone who spoils it for me.

Sorry my comments about me liking Emma's breast buds weren't deep enough for you. Just know my passion and desire for that damsel of the silver screen is as real as my 10 inch wand. (hardwood w/ unicorn tail feather, custom molded diagon alley edition circa 2003)
