LOL out of the Trio, I can only stomach Ron (I do know that he has a real name but when I'm in HP mode I tend to call the actors by their character names, lol) for lengthy periods of time. I hate Harry's hair pretty much always except for GoF and OotP mainly because DanRad looked quite cute with that cropped hair in the fifth movie :p Emma should just stop over-acting all the time!

I can realise that the actual writing wasn't amazing, it was the world-building and the plot that was the groundbreaking thing about them.

I agree! I still can't forgive JKR for that fail of an epilogue, but it's easily handwave-able.

they're clearly a huge part of my life (I don't even care how geeky that sounds).

Not geeky at all! Well, if it is geeky, then I'm right there with you. HP was a huge part of my life, still is, to an extent. My relationship with the series is like that of what you might have with an ex that you broke up with nicely enough and never really got over completely, so whenever you meet those intense feelings come back and smother you, lol. Yes I went there!

This is what I love about any fandom: what one person loves someone else is sure to dislike it, and vice-versa. The 3rd film was awesome and the 4th book is one of my faves, but I also agree with you that as much as I love Gary Oldman he was much too old to be Sirius, nor was Thewlis what I'd envisioned to be Remus. But then again I just compartmentalize my movie!canon from book!canon and I got over it quickly enough!

(I saw the last one in 3D IMAX and that was rather awesome in the Voldie/Dumbledoor fight scene) BUT THEY SCREWED UP MY FAVOURITE PART OF ANY BOOK EVER (until the final book came out anyway, then my favourite part changed XD)

OMG the last 15 minutes of OotP in 3D IMAX killed me! It was so freaking AWESOME! I hope HBP has 3D scenes too, omg that would be epic.

Intriguing, what was your fave part that they changed? And what did your favorite part change into once the final book came out? Lol sorry, I'm just super curious! I haven't talked about HP in ages either!

Sirius and Remus were pretty in my mind. And they have sex. Yeah, I ship them.

YES. WITH THE FLYING GLASS AND EVERYTHING AHHHHHH *dies* That was amazinggg. Before I saw TDK at the IMAX, there was a mini-trailer thing for HBP and it said there was going to be 40 minutes of 3d stuff in it \o/ Even though I get reeeeeeeeeally motion sick in the IMAX, it's too cool not to suffer through it.

Snape's Worst Memory ♥ Easiy my favoruite part of any book, ever... until the final book when it changed to the Snape And Lily memories (yeah, I know, so different from each other *eyeroll* XD) I think that's mostly because I'm far more interested in the Mauraurders stuff in the HPverse and I'm one of the masses that's been crying PREQUEL since I was about 10 XD (which is probably why PoA is my favourite book, huh) but then, I don't really want one because like having free rein of that canon without it being fucked-over (like, that's ever stopped be but w.e)

So do I! I was going to write that earlier in my last comment but wasn't sure if that type of stuff squicked you - it's so easy to offend people on the internets lately!

*faints* 40 minutes?!?!? OMG. EPIC! Sorry that you get motion sickness though! I've seen the last 3 HP films strictly on IMAX, I hardly remember how it feels like to watch one in a regular theater, I've been spoiled, haha!

*sniffles* Anything Snape makes me wibbly! The Snape/Lily memories made me cry, especially when thinking back to how Snape died, gah. *clings to Sev* The Maurauders were very interesting and I wouldn't mind knowing about their escapades together, but mostly when they're older already. Never really thought much of that, to be honest, though I wept so hard in that chapter wherein they're all together in the forest.. Gah, when was I not crying in the 7th book?

[offthebalcony]

No, they're pretty much the only pairing that I full-on ship in the HPverse. *g*

TDK in IMAX was pretty bad for the motion sickness but there was NO WAY I missing that. No way.

Snaaaaape. I love him and he does make me wibble uncontrolably (kind of like Jack really, mention Jack Harkness is a sad fic and I'll probably cry) The Maurauders really interest me and I want to know about The First War and everything but... my canon would get screwed so I'll just sit her with it all in my head *g*

OMG THAT FOREST SCENE! I was all sleep-deprived when I read that at about 5AM (because I wouldn't sleep until I finished it XD) and omg, my book got smudged from the amount of tears! AHHH ;_____;
