I just saw the movie Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix!   It was the best Harry Potter movie so far! 

I thought it wouldn't be good at first, because the book is the longest out of the series (870 pages), and the movie is the shortest (just over 2 hours), but it was fucking awesome!  They did a great job of taking a long book and making it into a reasonably short movie, unlike with Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban, where the book wasn't very long, and the movie was short and left out SO MANY important details.

Twinklestar didn't like it because she said it was to dark and angsty, and the previous movies, especially the first two, were a lot happier.  I say that they're not supposed to be happy, and it makes perfect sense that Harry's always pissed off.  Let's see,  his whole family except the Dursleys is dead, he watched Cedric Diggory get murdered the previous year, and now everyone thinks he's an insane, lying feak for saying Voldemort's back after he fought him and almost got killed himself.   Yeah, I'd be mad too.  The angry mood of the movie makes it even better.

You can see Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix at a theater near you at 12:01 a.m. tomorrow. THAT'S RIGHT, I GOT TO SEE IT EARLY! PWNAGE!

Since that's a pretty new post, I'm assuming you didn't go to see it right at 12:01!  I'm sure everyone else did, and that's why they're not replying.

I could go see it but I have no one to go with and I imagine the theater will be crowded.

I went with a friend and the theater showed it on 9 screens. It was way better than the last two movies and I really enjoyed it.

870 PAGES? Why does your book have 104 more pages than mine?

Because you have the English addition?  Maybe that's why.

I meant to say "edition".

It couldn't have less in it.  I meant the size of the pages or font could be different.  

Or do you mean Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire, which has a little more than 100 pages less?

Yeah, there's a picture at the beginning of each chapter, so that's probably it.

I can't wait until the new book comes out, so I can go to a bookstore and ruin the ending for everyone.

SNAPE DIES FIGHTING VOLDEMORT SO HARRY CAN LIVE.

Also, the giant squid in the lake is actually an animagus who is Godric Gryfindor. And Nevil is actually the one who kills Voldemort.

That won't be a problem for me.  I won't be able to go on a computer for two weeks starting Sunday.

I hope you'll be able to post on www.demonlime.com meanwhile. Otherwise, we should name a substitute for you during the time of your vacations.

I wonder how long it's going to take HP to realize that we don't like it when her middleschool friends join up here and have MSN-esque conversations in threads.

I heard the film is crap, and that it leaves out parts of the story like malfoy getting battered on the quidditch pitch, and st mungo's  etc.

To be fair, look how long the book was. Nobody is going to want to sit through 3 or 4 hours of film.
