Re: Harry Potter

Am I supposed to write a comment on it or a whole book? I love the movie so so so much. It just takes the magician out of me and I feel supernatural and that I can do anything. The story is super amazing. I mean who cannot like Harry Potter. Even when I see the cast in other movies I call them by their Harry Potter names only. This book and the movies, both are magical, diving right into the heart!

Potterhead here, too! Is it just me or do you wish to erase your memories of Harry Potter too just so you can experience the magic all over again?

I’m a huge fan of both! I definitely recommend the books and movies to anyone who hasn’t read/watched them.

I saw the first Harry Potter movie before I ever knew it was an adaptation. But afterward, I went and read all the books. It was so good I couldn't stop until I read them all. When i decided to watch the movies again, i didnt quite like some aspects becaseu i felt they makers left out some portions.

Harry Potter is so popular , especially with younger readers. I could never get into the books and would start watching some of the movies but didn’t always understand them, so I never finished watching any of them

Even I love Harry Potter books. They are something I can read for hours on end without getting bored or tired. I've seen the movies too, and enjoyed them! Though I do like the books more than the movies 😀

HARRY. I’m re-reading the series again. I love the books and the movies. The movies have their flaws, but I love them just as much. Prisoner of Azkaban is next!

I have watched Harry Potter movies a lot of times. I'm fan of it. I want to read the books too, they are in my list for so long.

Harry Potter. I can go on and on about the books and movies. Generally, I don't like the movie versions of the books. I feel they fail to do justice to the books. But the, it is difficult to fit every part of the book into the two-hour-long film. But somehow, HP movies don't fall into that category. I loved the movies equally as I did the books. My personal favorites are the Goblet of Fire and Deathly hallows , both parts. My least favorite is Prisoner of Azkaban. I cant watch the HP series on repeat.

Potterhead present here. Well I love the books and still read them when I have the time. I just wish they could include every aspect of the books into the film (Every Neville moment in the book was priceless).

The Virgo Speaks wrote: 06 Dec 2016, 23:03 This may be against the rules of the nerd association (of which I am a proud member), but I have seen every single Harry Potter movie an extensive amount of times and have never read any of the books. I plan to do so, however, before I die. I also plan on reading Fantastic Beasts and Where To Find Them by J. K. Rowling before i see the movie.
You are definitely not alone. I haven't read a single book in this series and I really have no plans of doing so :lol: lol. I enjoy watching the series regardless of its story or whether it follows the book or not.

I read all the books before watching the movies. I read some of them a few times. I discovered Harry Potter in an airport when I ran out of books to read. I believe I was on the 4th book by the time the movies began coming out. Enjoyed the books more than I enjoyed the movies, but the movies were not bad adaptations.

I have read some of the books and seen all of the movies. I loved the books. I also enjoyed the movies very much. They are a wonderful way to escape into a magical world. J.K. Rowling has such a wonderful imagination. The later books/movies become quite dark and scary though, although good triumphs over evil in the end.
