Yeah it was 1997. Scary thought isnt it? The time has flown. I was 12 and an arrogant immature little girl. I guess I was jealous of this world my friends created around the books, hence the reason I called them.

I love all of the movies so far. They've all been very entertaining.
The books were Incredible ... i never read one until after POA. though ... my friend kept telling me to read them and so i did ... i really think that JK is a gifted writer !
I liked the first 3 movies .... but num. 4 really let me down ... it seem'd so fake ... even though movies really are ... to me though it seem'd like they phoned in the GOF 'movie'. so i am apprehensive to check out OOTF when it is released ... but will read book 7 the day its released ...
as for attractive actors or actress's .... hell no!
but atleast they don't piss me off ...
my imagination is soo much better though ... its like tim burtin and Jhonen Vasquez
throwing a really cool party ... but only i'm invited ^^
Chuck Noblet: Can anyone tell me the tragic irony of the Trojan War? Tina? Tina: Um, that horses are friendly creatures yet a hollow, wooden one was used to destroy Troy? Chuck Noblet: Wrong and no. Anyone else? Chip? Chip: That the mighty warrior Achilles was killed by a small cut to his ankle. Chuck Noblet: Chip is wronger. OK, here it is. The tragic irony of the Trojan War is that though it was fought over Helen, who was young and beautiful, by the time they rescued her ten years later, she was old and ugly. Tina: But wasn't recovering the king's wife reward enough for the Greeks? Chuck Noblet: Tina, an ugly woman is never a reward.
I really enjoy reading the books. Order of the Phoenix was by far my favorite of the books. I read the first five books one after another last summer and my fascination with the story grew as each book grew more and more interesting. I read Half Blood Prince when it first came out and was a little let down by it, considering it broke the trend of each book getting better and better, but I have hopes for the last one.
The movies are only ok. I saw the first three when they came out in the theaters (long before I ever read the books), and then saw Goblet of Fire on DVD at the end of last year. I was slightly amused at the first three, but that last movie was horrible. Truly horrible. There's no doubt I'll still go see the other movies when they come out though, no matter how bad they might turn out to be. That young Hermione is turning out to be a hottie too.

When the books came out I was a ickle child. I got philosophers stone before it became famous. I don't think that JK Rowling is actually that good at descriptive writing and stuff (don't knife me!), but the way she PLOTS and mixes the legends and things and makes EVERYTHING MEAN SOMETHING is...is....*DIES*. I love the books, they are great.
The funny thing is, as I was younger when I read the first book, I didn't pick up on lots of stuff, and when I read it over again years later, I noticed lots more things. I'm not a big fan of the films. I think Rupert Grint is one of the best actors there. Hermione's Yule Ball dress...ummm....not liking. (hides from SapphireStar)
But overall, I love harry potter.
Two of the best fanart sites I know:
