Ten years ago, the first Harry Potter movie was released in theaters, which sent off the biggest hype since the Disney movies in the 1990's.
And on July 15, 2011, it all came to an end.
At this blog, we are continuing to talk about what has happened since Harry Potter & the Sorcerer's Stone was released in theaters and how my friends and I all reacted when we found out about said movie. We had seen the first movie about 5 times before one of my friends said that the movie was boring and dull. Not exactly what you want to be saying to me at the time.
But now that I'm looking back on what had happened to me since then, I wondered if the me of 10 years ago would have imagined that I'd be throwing away my obsession with Harry Potter and switching to vampires (and Twilight). And if I were to meet my 10-year-younger self, I would tell her not to get wrapped up in the hype and find something better to obsess over, or better yet, wait for Lord of the Rings.
That is all for this matter.

I don't know why you are wasting your time ranting about Harry Potter when no one cares to listen.
ReplyDeleteI don't really care what you have to say, I just really can't believe you put Twilight and Harry Potter in the same sentence and comparing them together. In my opinion, Twilight is just about a whinny little girl who can't live without two 'hot' guys fighting over her every second. There is no depth, there is no life lessons or attachment to characters. I hate when people say Harry Potter is cliche, when Twilight is just a fetish Stephanie Myers created to cope with not liking their husbands or not being young again.
Harry Potter at least is a different world, where you can dive between the pages and worlds and fall away into a world of magic and hope.
I'm not saying you shouldn't change your opinion, but seriously, the background is a little over, oh, and all of the 'anti-hate Harry Potter' is just a waste of time. Why not just get on with your life as you keep stating above? After all, it is just a book.
