Driving through six states over just as many days without a working iPod-to-stereo converter or satellite radio forces you to play the old "find a radio station" game. My mom and I have fairly similar music tastes, but I like more rock and she likes more pop, so the best compromise we make when it comes to radio stations are top 40. So, for those ( Read more... )

Were you into Harry Potter? I think I want you to do that one! It is also entirely possible that I'm going to steal this meme for myself. :)

IT'S CANON. When I first read DH, I was FREAKING OUT over the chapter where the trio meets up with him and he's so nonchalantly badass about EVERYTHING. &NEVILLE;

There is no character or person I am more in love with than Ron Weasley. The only part of all the books I won't reread is the part in GoF when he and Harry are fighting because I hate him not being around. lol most ridiculous Ron!wife.

INO! Neville was such a rockstar, if I didn't already adore him I would have fallen in love with him then. &NEVILLE:

I am still so grudgy towards the movies for ruining his character, especially POA, I wont watch that movie again. >:( I had to skip ahead at the part where he left Harry and Hermione in DH just to make sure he came back, and then again towards the end to make sure he didn't die. I would have been inconsolable if he had died. ;__;

(and now I want my HP icons back :()

OMG SOMEONE UNDERSTANDS MY HATE FOR POA. I FEEL SO CLOSE TO YOU RIGHT NOW. (in a non-creepy way, I promise) Everyone always praises Cuaron and shit but RON WAS DESTROYED AND IT MAKES ME SO ANGRY. Hermione was also fucked up (I hate when she comments on her hair looking messy during the time travel scene. lol n00b to Hermione) and UGH, RON IS SO MUCH BETTER THAN THAT MOVIE.

One of my good friend was convinced Ron was going to die and he's a Draco fan, so I was SO smug when he didn't and Draco was lame. I would have been beyond upset if Ron hadn't made it.

(me too. :()

CUARON CAN SUCK A COCK. I HATE HIM. SRSLY. He took Ron from being brave and standing up on a broken leg to face down an escaped prisoner and very powerful Wizard who he thought wanted to kill him and his friends to protect Harry and made him into a whimpering coward sitting on the bed. WTAF. I saw it with a few friends who hadn't read the book and afterwords I ranted at them for a good hour about how ABSOLUTELY WRONG everyone was in that movie. No really. EVERYONE WAS WRONG. (Except maybe the twins.)

I didn't think Ron or Hermione were going to die, Harry was 50/50. I was sure that someone I loved was going to bite it though. (Remus and Tonks;___;) I was glad that the trio survived.

YES EXACTLY!!!!! And not to mention they COMPLETELY left out the small fact that The Mauraders were HARRY'S DAD AND HIS BFFS. ARGH, it was such a fuck-up of some of my favorite things of canon that I can never ever forgive Cuaron or Kloves for it.

I was really worried about Ron and the Weasleys, but since I called a twin dying, I was okay with only Fred biting it. The trio, Luna and Neville were the people I most cared about surviving, so I was pretty happy, even with the deaths.

YYY. I remember them saying "Oh yeah, we left a bunch of stuff out but they can put that in the next movie, no worries!" Um. NO. That's not how it works. >:( The Mauraders were my FAVORITE part of POA (after everything with Ron, of course). They could animate the Whomping Willow for half an hour, but they can't spend two minuets on back story. Okay, whatever. Be like that. And, WTF was the werewolf? They made Lupin look like a weird Man-wolf thing and not you know, A WOLF. And I hate Kloves and his stupid creepy crush on Hermione, he keeps giving her all the good lines. Yeah. I guess I still have feelings about POA. :(

Statistically, one of Weasley's was probably going to die. Personally I was hoping for Percy, but I was okay with Fred too. I always liked George better, Fred was always too mean to Ron. I am still angry that she killed off Remus and Tonks, but yeah. The trio, Luna and Neville (and Draco. Even though I think his character deserved better. What can I say, I always had a soft spot for Fanon!Draco. /o\).

UGH that still bothers me so much. It would have taken ONE LINE to explain that to Harry and there were like, 7 times that it would have fit perfectly, but nooooo. There is no reason POA was as shitty as it was, Cuaron is a capable director of other movies and POA is a really fun book and time travel is ALWAYS AWESOME, so why did they have to fuck up it up so bad?

Kloves' crush on Hermione is so creepy and I HATE IT because he's single-handedly ruined Ron in all the movies. Thank God Rupert Grint is the most capable actor of the trio, at least.

IA! I thought she'd kill of Remus or Tonks but no way both. It just really sucked that they went out they did, too. (LOL Fanon!Draco :D IL faily, lame canon!Draco, personally)

I really hate how they always claim "time constraints" when asked why they left certain things out of the movies. I am fairly confidant that every HP fan wouldn't mind if the movies were 20-30 mins longer. POA is my favorite HP book! TIME TRAVEL! WEREWOLVES! ESCAPED CONVICTS! :DDDD But it is my least favorite movie, because of the fail.

It is just so skeevy. YES! I remember reading an article years ago where Kloves said he tried to make Hermione more likable in the movies than she was in the books. UM, WHAT. IA. Rupert has always been the best actor of the three, I am really looking forward to his career after HP.

It does! We didn't even get to see it, just some line about Harry seeing them dead. ;__; I figured Hagrid would be a goner too, I was wrong. (IL snarky snobby Draco, like he was in the first few books. Also, redeemed!Draco. :D)

riorhapsody November 30 2009, 19:24:30 UTC
I guess they think people who don't read the books don't want longer movies? Which is still stupid because Titanic was 3 hours long. Stupid movie people >:(

Kloves is a fucking hack and I HATE HIM. We love Hermione, everyone loves Hermione, she's not unlikeable and aksjlakjsd STFU STEVE KLOVES.

I thought Hagrid was going to die in OotP, so I was shocked that he made it out of the series alive. (lolol oh Draco. IL crying in a bathroom!Draco most because it makes me lol endlessly)

People who don't read the books shouldn't watch the movies. I don't get people who can enjoy something like the Harry Potter movies, yet have no desire to read the source material, even after being told that the books are better. :\ (Yes, I am aware that makes me sound like a snob. IDEC.) Why are the most boring movies always the longest? That Australia movie with Nicole Kidman was about 7 hours long. I would gladly watch a 7 hour long HP movie. :D

I love Hermione because of her 'flaws'. I lover her crazy hair and buck teeth and her bossiness, it is what makes her relateable. I don't want to watch Super!Hermione and her Pink Hoodie of Awesome, kthnx. Stupid Kloves. >:(

I think the only death that actualfax upset me was Hedwig. I had to stop reading for a little while. ;__; (I don't think I realized how much of a defensive Draco!wife I was until now. I don't know what to do with that. :\)
