My kids h...Brenda-- We're doing the same thing! My kids had never been interested in the movies or the books, so they haven't seen most of them. I FINALLY talked them into letting me read HP to them (we're on book 4). Now that they KNOW how awesome HP is, we are having a movie marathon before we see HP7.5.<br /><br />Jessie-- I hear you.<br /><br />Christina-- Eee! I hope you love it!<br /><br />Madeline-- Gasp! That's criminal! I'm glad you finally got to see it. And yay for HP-addicted little brothers! And I *heart* new followers. Thank you!<br /><br />Clarissa-- I hope you get a chance to enjoy it, too. And I'm glad you found my blog, too. :) Welcome!Peggy Eddlemanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10241451940725996650noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4314030690340539256.post-7068721279393262652011-07-17T09:09:15.115-06:002011-07-17T09:09:15.115-06:00I haven't seen it but I'm glad everyone is...I haven't seen it but I'm glad everyone is enjoying it.

I went to go see it when the stupid theater finally decided to show it, and it was amazing! My little brother cried.

And today I'm sad that it's all over - I didn't know I would be this sad, but I am - very, very sad. My daughter and I are going to watch all the Harry Potter movies this coming week and then go to Deathly Hallows Part 2 again next weekend. We wanted to do that this week, but it was too busy. <br />Thanks so much for commenting on my poem on my blog for Shelly's blogfest! You're so wonderful for doing it!Brenda Sillshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03702163304597782659noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4314030690340539256.post-88711994303474705632011-07-15T15:56:55.650-06:002011-07-15T15:56:55.650-06:00Anna-- It was awesome! I hope you get to see it so...Anna-- It was awesome! I hope you get to see it soon.<br /><br />Janet-- Seriously. What the heck are you doing? Really-- what are you doing reading this when you could be watching an entire awesome series?! Stop. Reading. Now. Go rent. That's an order.<br /><br />Kristine-- I'm totally with you that sometimes midnight showings just aren't worth it. But this TOTALLY was.<br /><br />Ozzland-- Your comment made me laugh out loud-- in several places! Yes. Some movie adaptations sully the good name of the book. Well... more than just some. Just some WAY worse than others. *coughERAGONcoughSEEKERcough* The book is almost always better than the movie.<br /><br />And you know... other kids are cool, too, and they want you to read books about them. Kids named Harry and Hermoine and Ron....<br /><br />And the nice thing about seeing the movies first is a)the characters are in your head, so they can't cast the movie wrong and b) you aren't disappointed by the movie when it doesn't live up to the book. Although I've got to say-- Harry Potter movies rock in that department to begin with.<br /><br />Olivia-- Yes, yes, YES!! I'm excited for you that you get to read book 7 now, because it's amazing. The movie rushed a lot of things that you will now get the chance to SAVOR.Peggy Eddlemanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10241451940725996650noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4314030690340539256.post-26366062545777155702011-07-15T15:16:53.438-06:002011-07-15T15:16:53.438-06:00dude.

(don't put to much thought into that, just leave it as I read a lot)<br /><br />With that said I have never read the potter series because I saw the first movie and liked it, and there are just to many movie/book - book/movie combos to truly umm SUCKED in my opinion to believe that the ratio/trend will not continue.<br /><br />I also do not read a lot of kid oriented books because well I have kids that are cool why would I want to hear about someone else’s kids?<br /><br />Back to the question at hand. Yes I saw the last and final Harry Potter, and I can honestly say I liked, I mean not nearly as much as some of the cape wearing, wand toting, individuals that were seated around me. But all in all a very good showing.<br /><br />My personal rant on 2 of the latest horrifying adaptations!<br />1. Eragon the movie (from hell) if you read the books. Assumedly created from the Eragon books by Christopher Paolini. I mean the only redeeming movie factor was they at least got most of the names right, and there was a dragon. <br />2. Legend of the Seeker: “@#$%^*! )$#% are you kidding me” Really!!!!<br />a. Legend of the Seeker is a television series based on The Sword of Truth novels by Terry Goodkind. Distributed in U.S. by Disney-ABC Domestic Television.<br />b. If anyone out there knows what I mean I’d be happy to rant with you because there is just to much to say here andI don’t want to take any more of Peggys space for it.<br />c. I’ll just say Love Terry Goodkind, would like to execute everyone involved with this production starting at the top, after severely beating them and making them read the damn books since they obviously did not already.<br /><br />Happy Friday!Ozzlandhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16761290905144070481noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4314030690340539256.post-45841832454178460242011-07-15T09:39:42.439-06:002011-07-15T09:39:42.439-06:00Janet!
