Re: Harry Potter
I'm off to watch Star Wars now, dressed as a Jedi with my toy lightsaber.
I will have to put a spell on the flat so no-one knows where i am! Not sure who to trust the pass word to tho?

Re: Harry Potter
If you havent read or seen the films how can you possibly hate Harry Potter. I am a Nana of two gorgeous little boys and I adore the Harry Potter series. I have all the books in hardback and on disc and also transferred to my MP3. I have got my ticket to go and see the film on the 19th July, thought I would wait until the excitement dies down a bit and i get a chance to read the book. I have got the Davinci Code but havent read it yet, but will get round to it. The word witchcraft is one of the common words in debates about it and yes everyone is entitled to their own opinion but one of the biggest things that has come out of Harry Potter is children have gone back to reading books more and this cannot be a bad thing can it. The first Harry Potter film was on the tv again in UK and I enjoyed it every bit as much as the first time I saw it. Star Trek fans are called Trekkies does this make Harry Potter fans "Potties"

Re: Harry Potter
When the book first came out my cousin who used to be a nun said it was the devils work and would not read it or let her daughter (i said used to be)read it....then she changed religions as she liked Jimmy Osmand and suddenly it was ok to read it and now she loves all the films and books.

Re: Harry Potter
I can't wait to find more about Snape - think there is more there than what we've seen...

Re: Harry Potter
Yes that seemed to be the negative about it when it came out but everyone is entitled to their own opinion but shouldnt push it on others. Its a bit of escapism. I love writing and what i would give to have an imagination to go with it like JK Rowling has. I am going to have a no news day when i read the book as someone somewhere will get it out "Who Dies and will Scar be the very last word in the book". Enjoy

People might say the same about Star Wars, but I was a kid when that first came out, and it's stayed with me since.
