[rygorych]

lets be honest
dase- retarded for arguing on a forum with ebo
ebo- retarded from reading dases posts and trying to reply to them before succumbing to down syndrome
duck- retarded from switching from elf to orc to undead. WHY DID I PLAY ORC WHEN THE BLADEMASTER WASNT KNOWN TO BE IMBA and who doesnt miss before the beastmaster hunt nerf...

I can go on:

Dobby the House Elf: just plain retarded.

Someone watches to much Harry Potter.

[FML|Mage]

First of all Harry Potter should be read not watched.  Second of all, no he doesn't since he's gotten most of the spelling wrong =D

That being said, Harry Potter is awesome and fuck all of you who don't think so.

Love,

Mage

Actually Harry Potter is average-good, however, since most of the readers are ppl who only watch movies, it seemed mind blowing good

Actually, you're very wrong because I devour books like crazy and HP is amazing as hell comparing to 99% drivel they call YA days. Really, Rena, you have no say in this because in your world Snape was called Rogue (WTF?).

[FML|Renaud]

I almost got him to read more books and you come here and fuck everything up?
Wtf is wrong with you!

Nah, its amazing.  I'll give you there are a shit-ton of plot holes, the 6th book and epilogue should never have been created, and the characterization is wishy-washy.  I can name you a lot of books that require more thinking, have better plots, and are from better writers.  All that being said, how many books have entranced such a wide generation of readers as Harry Potter?  Adults, teens, and kids alike love them.  It's a once in a life-time type of book, and its that intangible that makes it so good.  Maybe it lost something in the French translation, I don't know.

But the world that JKR created is phenomenal, and even when reading stuff that I completely disagreed with and hated (like HBP) I couldn't put it down.

Exactly. Except I didn't see the problem with HBP. Epilogue was unnecessary though, that I agree with.

And since this thread is now about HP, one of my favorite scenes from the movies:

Horrible, horrible Hermione.

[FML|Mage]

Hermione is made out to be an idiot, and it completely breaks her character previously established in other books.  Before they would investigate things, trust Harry etc.  In this book they point blank refuse to believe him.  She says I told you so about the potions book right after Harry witnesses Dumbledore's death, something clearly not important.  Lots of other examples, but I'm supposed to be doing a paper right now so I'll have to wait til later for a longer explanation.

Also though, the Harry/Ginny romance.  Completely out of the blue, no time spent characterizing Ginny before this book, and I'm still surprised that there wasn't a love potion involved based off of the description of their romance haha.
