Anyone going to be reading the new Harry Potter?

[deathstrike from hell]

Don't lie. You know you want to.

 

[WhiteBeastofWotan]

I have absolutely no desire to do so.

Oh noez! Harry Potter does blak magik!!!!!
















He's a traitor to his race. He should practice white magic

Maybe eventually. Although the Harry Potter series is way overrated, I may read it just for kicks. I did read the first 5 'cause my sister has 'em, but they really don't do anything for me. There are much better books out there than Harry Potter.

 

[The River Dragon]

Why not, I read the other 6 books...

 

[mReEtTaIlRsEkD]

Doesn't it come out in July or something?

 

[perniciosa]

I never read any Harry Potter books and that probably won't change....

 

[Calamitas1786]

I'm not a Harry Potter reader, but the new movie does look pretty epic.

The books are progressively getting better, although I did only embark on reading them in Latin because of a course I was involved in.

The movies are getting pretty awesome now, too. The last one was quite excellent, and the one prior to that was directed by the same fellow that done Children of Men, so it holds plenty of aesthetic value - even if the story-lines had not gotten interestingly dark and complex enough by then.

One of the most interesting things about the Harry Potter books is that they happen in *real* time. I.E. Rowling has altered the tone and storylines as the audience has grown up - it's a literary phenomenon. Probably deservedly so, too.

I would read it, but I just broke my wang, er, I mean wand.

 

[cmwolfe]

And don't those books promote evil things like witchery n' such? Shame on y'all...

 

[RedKef]

Hell fucking yes bitch. Do you know why? because Harry Potter is well written. Just because something is marketed to a certain audience does not mean that it is either for or limited to it. Good dialogue is hard to come by these days, and it has an inventive and well made storyline with few plot holes.

I will admit that the series has gone downhill. I blame emo kids.

havent read one page or seen one second of film (aside from previews). magic is not my bag, the only Wizard i wanna hear from is Electric.

 

[the_drip]

haven't read one yet...no sense in starting now. the upcoming movie looks ok. I might go see that.

 

[RedKef]

If you're going to see one of the movies, see the first and second ones
