I finally got to see the new Harry Potter-movie yesterday. There wasn't any big surprises, luckily, neither good or bad. Being addicted to audio-books, I know these books by heart, so seeing the films are always exciting; what have they changed, what have they left out? And the films can never match the books, I know that, so I'm not even going to expect it.
But if you forget the fact that they're based on books, how was it? Good! All the Harry Potter films has kept me on the edge of my seat, wide eyed and tense with suspense, and this one wasn't any different. Amazing considering that I've read the books (too) many times and KNOW what's happening in the end.
SPOILERS! For those of you who haven't read the 6th Potter book, or seen the 5th movie, and don't want to know what's happening, don't read on.
Speaking of Potter, the last books is coming out in a couple of days! I've pre-ordered it and am looking forward to it like a kid waiting for Christmas. But one thought crossed my mind when I watched the movie; "Poor Harry Potter. Hasn't this kid gone through enough?" Rowling has to be a sadist to drag this kid through all the crap he's gone through. And really, she has to be very mean, I mean "The Grinch-type-mean", if she's dragged him through stuff like loosing his parents, having the most EVIL dark wizard as an arch enemy, having the WORST step-parents in the world, and then loosing both his godfather and Dumbledore, just to let him snuff it at the end. If she does that, I'm going to sue her. She's earned more than enough money on Harry's misery.
