Happy Harry Potter Month!

---
The Empire

Well actually I don't like Harry Potter, AT ALL, I'm not sure why, It just doesn't appeal to me.

Have you seen the movies? I didn't like it at all until I read the first book.

Yep I saw the first 3 movies, And I didn't like them.

The book is better than the movies by a long shot!

I love the books, I read them all in 4 weeks, but then I saw the movies and they sucked.

I really thought the last movie- Half Blood Prince- was nothing compared to the book. The movie was really rushed and lacked all the detail the book had. It's good they choose to do Deathly Hallows over 2 movies.

Yes, thank goodness! I've always wanted to see THBP, probably because it features my favorite character...SNAPE!

Snape and Lupin are my favorites! I agreee with everyone else, the movies are definatly not as good as the books. Books FTW!

Lupin is my favorite too. I also like Sirius Black.

In the movie they made Harry seem like a snob.

I could see that when I first saw his sig-fig's torso...

As for me, my favorite is either Alastor Moody, or Cedric Diggory(even though I didn't like what the actor did to the character... and how he killed the mitological vampire creature for me and all other lovers of the fantastic... ) Hufflepuff FTW!

Also, do you people like the new banner I made?

What, does no one like Tonks? She's my favorite, besides Luna. They remind me of myself; scatterbrained, different, just a little crazy..

I originally read the books after watching the films which made the film's seem not so bad. I was upset that they missed out so much of HBP.

My favorite adult is Sirius because the way he cares for Harry.
My favorite Student is Neville if we can skip Harry and all the main characters.

I only read the first. I'll probably have to read the second. (because of this AR program at my school)

A.R those where the days ( I always had about 700 points a semester.)

Have to? what are these words? reading is a pleasure!

I only don't advise you to read the last one, J.K only isn't a murderer because they are fictional characters, she's a dream crusher, it stopped being a children's novel to a teenage terror book...

Yeah the last book is like WW2 but in a wizard sort of way.

I'm not too much of a reading person. The only reason....you feel rushed in this AR program, and when your rushed, you can't enjoy the book, and if you can't enjoy the book, you don't like to read as often. It's a chain reaction. And I also have no time to read, this website, homework, school, LEGO.

I have even less time than you. Try being an adult. Haven't read a book completely in a long time.

Oh yeh. It seems when they want you to read, they actually push you into having less time to do so. But some kids have nothing to do in their life (it seems), and they read 15 books a month, thick ones.

Like me 10 years ago. Some kids only read one 2 point book the whole year.

Same here. We have to get 15 points to pass, and I think I'll reach that goal this year.

The Empire wrote:Same here. We have to get 15 points to pass, and I think I'll reach that goal this year.

I'd suggest reading the diary of a wimpy kid books, I read them really fast, and 223 pages are still a nice amount, I don't know how many points each book is worth, though

Ok we are officially of topic lets get back on topic.

We can discuss anything as long as it remotely is about Harry Potter.

Heh, I read them all, I didn't enjoy them, I was just bored, It took me a week to read them all.

After years of You got to read it!! , I just started the first book! This month could not come at a better time.

My favourite theme, and the theme that peeked my interest in Lego all those years ago... ah nostalgia.

Bet you can't guess who my favourite character is?

It might be a long shot, but I'd say... hmmm... Hagrid?

Cheers, you mustachioed gringo.

Edited my avatar. My camera sucks, so I make avatars on Paint. (Even if they are only slightly less awful. ))

Your good, I'll give you that, your good!

Is your favorite....Flitwick? Just a guess.

The Empire wrote:Is your favorite....Flitwick? Just a guess.

Thats the worst guess ever why would you even guess Flitwick?

I don't know! Maybe that's his NAME!

The Empire wrote:I don't know! Maybe that's his NAME!

Sure it is where is your evidence? Huh?

Let's see....

His NAME!
His AVATAR!
He talks about Harry Potter™!
And he is on EB as professor flitwick!

Back on topic. Does anyone own the new HP sets yet?

I saw them in the shop yesterday, I decided to get a brickarms order instead though.

I'm getting some today for my b-day. Hogwarts and Freeing Dobby.

The Empire wrote:I'm getting some today for my b-day. Hogwarts and Freeing Dobby.

I was thinking of getting two "Quidditch Match" sets, bbut I'll just stick with asking for the Hogwarts Express for X-mas and if I don't get it then (Since I want some other things more than I want that set, including the Grand Emporium, a Yugioh deck and and Academy/Chaos Duel Disk) I'll get it for my birthday.

Cheers, brothers and sisters(wait a second, are there any girls in this forum?)

I might get freeing dobby for the cool mask face thing, Cos that looks cool, And I might get the castle too, The figs in it look pretty awesome.

blhc11 the great wrote:Cheers, brothers and sisters(wait a second, are there any girls in this forum?)

There are NO girls on the internet, Its sad.

Yes there are! And i have Freeing Dobby and Hoqwarts, they rock! Hopefully, with some extra ca$h, I can get Hagrid's Hut and Quidditch Match!

The Empire wrote:Yes there are! And i have Freeing Dobby and Hoqwarts, they rock! Hopefully, with some extra ca$h, I can get Hagrid's Hut and Quidditch Match!

Quidditch Match set looks awesome.

I have it now...it is!

I have taken a test online to figure out my House.

Welcome the most intelligent of all the Ravenclaws! I will make a Hogwarts RPG mini-game soon.

I took the same quiz and got.... Hufflepuff!!
