im not forcing, each time he gets a new DVD i watch it.


(plus i could just have him burn it)
Title: Re:Harry Potter?
Post by: JDog on July 08, 2006, 07:21:14 PM
Interesting, I wish I had stuff to burn DVDs.
Title: Re:Harry Potter?
Post by: Nabooru on July 09, 2006, 04:45:56 PM
any way back on topic I like it to I cant wait for the fifth movie it was my favorite book.
Title: Re:Harry Potter?
Post by: JDog on July 09, 2006, 08:22:58 PM
I hope the book is more like the book, then the fourth one.
Title: Re:Harry Potter?
Post by: Nabooru on July 09, 2006, 08:36:34 PM
Sadly i understood that(jk), and yeah they could have put a bit more into the fourth one.
Title: Re:Harry Potter?
Post by: Hi no Seijin on July 10, 2006, 05:04:27 AM
Here's why I don't really like watching movie versions of books.  Books that tend to make good movies are long.  Like Harry Potter.  Now here's the thing with movies:  people don't really like it when it's really long.  And when directors try to stay in a certain time frame, it's hard to put all of the details in the book into the movie.  Personally, I don't care about the length of the movies, as long as the movie makes the length worth it.

I'm waiting for the seventh book.  Harry better finish school at Hogwarts with a bang.
Title: Re:Harry Potter?
Post by: Nabooru on July 10, 2006, 11:40:47 AM
Hes not going back to school and I dont care about length either!
Title: Re:Harry Potter?
Post by: Gamefreak on July 10, 2006, 12:12:30 PM
Um....Sephiroth, I've had the DVD for about a year now.
Title: Re:Harry Potter?
Post by: JDog on July 10, 2006, 02:08:36 PM
That kinda belongs in with the PMing, and how do you know he's not going back to school?
Title: Re:Harry Potter?
Post by: Nabooru on July 10, 2006, 02:49:52 PM
Because J.K.R. says so.

You read the 6th book, right?

And I'm hoping Harry is forced to go back to school.  Surely Dumbledore's office must hold some clues that could help Harry defeat Voldemort.
Title: Re:Harry Potter?
Post by: MagmarFire on July 11, 2006, 06:57:48 PM
That's a possibility but...(SPOILERS)...he needs to find the other four Horcruxes. However, going back to school may help him find them all, hence your previous post.
Title: Re:Harry Potter?
Post by: Nabooru on July 11, 2006, 07:10:11 PM
I'm not saying I dont want him to go back to school, I'm saying he wont.
Title: Re:Harry Potter?
Post by: Hi no Seijin on July 12, 2006, 09:14:24 AM
Don't be so sure, Nabooru.  Us writers have ways to catch people by surprise.  If I was Rowling, I would have Harry not go to school, but he's forced to go back to Hogwarts because there is an important clue there.

And bring back Fluffy.  I want to know what happened to him.

Post by: alical on July 12, 2006, 10:44:32 AM
My favourite book was the 4orth, closely followed by the sixth. I hated the fith!
The forth movie was quite good.
Title: Re:Harry Potter?
Post by: Nabooru on July 12, 2006, 10:59:01 AM
Well I think hell go back to Hogwarts for a little while but not attend school.

Some time next summer, same with the 5th movie.
Title: Re:Harry Potter?
Post by: JDog on July 14, 2006, 06:57:22 AM
Probably in Novemember, like everyother one was released.
Title: Re:Harry Potter?
Post by: MasterKeyX on July 14, 2006, 07:02:18 AM
good, thath not too far away...the movies, however, are not as good i dont look forward to them as much.

July is for the book.  I think you're thinking about the movies.

It's a good thing you don't have to read the books or watch the movies then, huh?

i suppose Harry can get on some peoples' nerves? ;D
Title: Re:Harry Potter?
Post by: Nabooru on August 14, 2006, 10:32:50 AM

It should; at least two people are expected to die.

some say Harry may die..that would be interesting...

well it is very possible
Title: Re:Harry Potter?
Post by: MasterKeyX on August 15, 2006, 04:09:03 PM
yeah, but it would have to be at the end to make sense., or else who would vanquish Voldemort?
Title: Re:Harry Potter?
Post by: Nabooru on August 15, 2006, 04:10:38 PM
Yes I think they are both going to die.
Title: Re:Harry Potter?
Post by: MasterKeyX on August 15, 2006, 04:13:50 PM
some say Rowling will kill Harry to prevent anyone from continuing the series on the side.
Title: Re:Harry Potter?
Post by: Nabooru on August 15, 2006, 04:20:28 PM
I dont think she will for that reason. And isnt there something to prevent that?
Title: Re:Harry Potter?

you mean copyrights? yeah, but they can be broken in years to come.

Harry Potter rocks I liked the second one the most.

Post by: Nabooru on August 17, 2006, 03:44:30 PM
The second one? That was my least fav.
Title: Re:Harry Potter?

the second one was boring.
Title: Re:Harry Potter?
Post by: JDog on August 18, 2006, 07:57:06 AM
It was better then the 4th one, I think it was good, but the thrid was by far the best.
Title: Re:Harry Potter?
Post by: newbkyng on August 18, 2006, 08:09:41 AM
The fourth was one of my favs... but the 6th was the coolest! The fifth was scariest, cuz of theDepartment of Mysteries... like the brains... and the jar that turned a Death Eater's head into a babies... and the Death Room... (shudder) But the fifth one explained a lot.

D'you think anyones gonna die (besides Voldemort) in Book 7? Cuz Rowling has a history of killing her good-guy characters.

SPOILERS

Book 4- Cedric
Book 5- Sirius (I cried)
Book 6- Dumbeldore (I cried then too, but kinda serves him right for ever trusting Snape)

Personnally I think Hagrid's gonna die (and I'll cry then too)

Post by: Darth Wyndisis on August 18, 2006, 08:10:58 AM
I only got through the first book.
Title: Re:Harry Potter?
Post by: JDog on August 18, 2006, 08:15:17 AM
I still need to read some of them, I skipped some, like the 5th one, Im going to start reading it soon, thats like the only one I haven't read, I like the books better then the movies, but the soundtracks were good, up to the 4th that is.

Title: Re:Harry Potter?
Post by: JDog on August 19, 2006, 06:43:01 PM
Like the return of lupen, I thought that part was cool, but how did harry get out of the room when vernon locked it from the outside, she never said anyone unlocked it.
Title: Re:Harry Potter?
Post by: Nabooru on August 19, 2006, 06:44:11 PM
I dont exactly know what your talking about, but doesnt it say he uses the twins method(hairpins)?
Title: Re:Harry Potter?
Post by: JDog on August 19, 2006, 06:55:31 PM
No, when they are standing out the door, he's by the door, and I don't realy get how he got out of his room, because when veron left, it said he locked it when he closed the door, so he locked it from the outside, did one of the older wizards use that spell, what was it? The one that unlocks doors. because harry isn't suppose to use magic, other wise, he would be screwed.
