Pottermore

Well I got into the site yesterday teatime and by 8pm I'd thoroughly finished with it, it's very much aimed at younger children, there's little else for older kids, never mind adults.  Once you've read all the background bits behind the characters, situations and objects there's nothing else of interest.  Only the first book is available to view too, so until they let me read the stuff about the Chamber of Secrets there's no reason for me to visit the site again.

watching Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows - Part 1

on DVD, can't wait until Part 2 is released, I'll get the DVD version to round off my collection as I hate it when collections don't match become someone has the bright idea of changing the cover design partway through a run, a plague of boils upon all such folk where it hurts them the most!

Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows - Part 2

And so it ends, from a dark and dreary day in November 2001 to a dark and cold night in July 2011 the final film in the saga concludes a journey taken along with so many others.  For me it was a happy and sad event, happy because I feel a part of something special that doesn't happy very often at all, sad because after it being a part of my life for a decade it's now over.  There will be other films, other books, other things but nothing I feel will quite capture the imagination and interest of the entire world quite like the small boy who lived under the stairs and went on to become the saviour of humanity.  The books will live on and become timeless classics and perhaps one day someone will remake the films, for a new generation but these movies are our Harry Potter, we must treasure them and mourn their passing for we will never again have the feeling of waiting for the release of the next part of the series.  To future generations who one day will await with expectation the release of their Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone I say this: enjoy it, you're on for the ride of a lifetime.
