I was disappointed, because I really like Harry Potter and everyone hates Harry Potter here.

 

I've watched a few of them. I don't recall not liking them. But one of them went on for what seemed like a really long time. Of course, just before sitting down to watch that one, Storchette had to drag me from the computer where I had been involved in a fight for quite some time with some poster from another forum. Well actually it was the other guy who was fighting; I was just fighting back. It was self defense, I swear.

Also, for a pick-me-up during the first half hour of the show, I ate a few (six, in record time) of those no-bake cookies (peanut butter, cocoa, oatmeal etc.) that my sister had sent me home with after a night of cards the previous night. And then came the big drop after the pick-me-up. I was falling asleep while sitting up, and getting irritated because Storchette prefers her movies LOUD.

So I don't want to judge a movie knowing I was under the influence of cookies at the time. I couldn't even tell you what the movie was about. But man it was fucking loud; waaay too loud! I can tell you that.

 

I can’t say I hate Harry Potter because I've never sat through an entire movie.

All I know of the series are watching snippets while channel surfing.

 

in which case you probably wouldn't like thunder/das magic's house, but felidae might be right up your alley.

zootopia manages to be kid safe without being 'kidzy' at all.

 

precisely why, when, as is often the case, i've already read a book, or a novella serialized in a periodical like analog-sf,
long before anyone even thought about making a movie based on the same story,
that i so seldom waste the price
of going to see a movie
at all.

 

dont let it get you down, they're just jealous they never got that acceptance letter from Hogwarts.

 

i'm sure you worked very hard toward that accomplishment?

 

Never read the books or seen the films. By the time it got popular I saw it as too childish to bother with. My sister was a big fan though.

 

I mean, the books are where it's at--although I am not one of those Harry Potter people who are really really into it. Like those people who go to Disney 5x per year.

 

Yeah, me either. I liked them, though.

 

Dementors

 

That's where i gave up on the series

 

Because you were too scared to continue

 

I didn't like anything about them or their role. If i was the author and had a writers block i can imagine coming up with some monsters like this would be my last resort
