  • Harry Potter 7 Part 1

    So who is getting geared up for the first installment of the last Harry Potter book?

    I must not tell lies. I have purchased midnight premiere tickets.

    Depends. Are they going to wander the forest for 300 pages in this part or the second part?

      Wow, this is exactly what I was going to post. I hated book 7. The one Harry Potter book that has a huge chunk that could be left out of the movie, and they decide to make it into two movies. Makes perfect sense.

        I'm not exactly sure how the book got chopped up, but the trailer definitely shows them in the forest at various points and visiting graves at Godric's Hollow. Dobby makes a brief appearance in the trailer for part 1—I don't know if this means they make it all the way to Shell Cottage or not?

          Let me tell you how much I hated it. I still don't know how the series ends because I couldn't take one more page of wandering. I don't remember the exact page, but I just couldn't take it.

            I think for the sake of narrative necessity, a lot of the superflous wandering will have to either be removed altogether or will have a bunch of additional action scenes thrown in to keep the audience's attention.

            I like book seven, though. It wasn't my favorite of the series, but I enjoyed reading it, wandering and all.

              We will see this for sure. We have read all the books and enjoyed the movies as well. We will definitely finish the movie series out. Hopefully it will not disappoint!

                I figured that would be the case, cutting the wandering out. It weighed into my decision to stop reading.

                I will be seeing to film for sure.

                  My guess is Part 1 will end when Ron pulls Harry out of that pond. I think that was at the end of their wanderings, IIRC.

                      Has anyone heard of the hubbub about the supposed "nudity" in the first installment?

                      From what I've heard, people are freaking out about nothing.

                          For all this His anger is not turned away, but His hand is stretched out still.

                          Not long ago an obituary appeared in the Salt Lake Tribune that said the recently departed had "died doing what he enjoyed most—watching BYU lose."

                              Same. Harry Potter is to Surfah as Twilight is to Pelagius.
