I cannot wait for HBP! Though I will cry like a friggin baby. No spoilers for those who don't know the story, but 5 6 and 7 has me crying like a big ole' baby.
Me too, GOF movie made me cry the most, (Cedrics father :cry:)

OOTP not as much. It wasnt the same as the book for me, I just didnt feel as sad as when I read the book.

When I go to see HBP I am going to take a box of tissues because I cried so much when I read the book.

And then, DH, what can I say??? It will be exhausting! :cry:

Ron is my favorite character too. Rupert Grint is perfect for the part. I think Harry is kind of lame in the movies. I don't know, I just really don't Daniel Radcliff. Everyone is probably going to hate me for saying that, but he is just annoying to me. Probably because I love Ron so much.

I think both the movies and books are all great. Although, I just relized last week when I saw Twilight and saw the preview for Half Blood Prince, that I'm not very found of the dark turn the books took. In Sorcerers Stone, it was all fun and made you laugh. After the third, it just went downhill. I don't mean the books got bad, I just mean they got sadder, and more serious/dark. I don't know why, but that suddenly hit me really badly.

I don't know. I'm confused. :?:

Before I got obsessed to Twilight books, I'd been addicted to harry potter books and movie..
Like I collect articles, magazines, posters, books, stuffs HP related, i even sent letters to the actors,
but last year when my attention was switched to Twilight, I just forgot HP, HP became #2 in my life..after twilight..rofl

I totally agree with you! Ron is definitely my favorite character in the books and the movie. Rupert Grint is aweosome and does such a great job. I have never been that impressed with Daniel Radcliff. When he was younger he was kinda cute but now he just kinda annoys me.

One thing that has annoyed me is the have given Hermione/Emma Watson way more screen time than Ron/Rupert. Like she is more of Harry's friend than Ron.

-It feels like Twilight's replacing Harry Potter by taking its release date. No offence to Twilighters but nothing can replace HP.

-Nahh, I prefer the HBP movie. I'm not as excited for Twilight as I am for Harry Potter. The trailers got me all excited and stuff but then WB moved it to July and now we have to wait for 8 more months. *cries*
Well, I agree with you. I love Twilight and all but (no offense to any Twilighter) HP for me is the best. When I heard that HBP was moved to July it was sad, but when I heard that Twilight was going to be in the originally date of HBP, it became worst. The HBP book is the #2 in my rank of the HP books, so I was pretty excited by seeing the movie.

Although I must say that the new trailer is pretty cool! :D

I was sad when I found out that HBP was coming out in July instead of November. I had already made plans to see it in November! I wasn't a fan of Twilight yet when the announcement had been made so it didn't really affect me all that much. I am glad now though because had Twilight not come out when it did or if it came out with HBP I probably would never have read it!

Why in the world is ABC Family playing HP for 25 days of CHRISTMAS?????
It bugs me a lot. They are NOT Christmas movies!!!!!!
Same for Cars, Mary Poppins, and The Incredibles.
