Harry Potter and The Half Blood Prince

Oh yeah i forgot you weren't a fan of Melissa... still not going to buy her book then :p

I'll have to give the daily snitcher ago then! I dont bother with Mugglenet anymore, im more of a leaky looker! lol
 
:eek:I know. I was looking forward to this too! Especially with him getting angry (well as angry as Dumbledore could ever get!:D) with them for not treating Harry properly.:eek::mad:the Dursley's seem to have been cut completely.
 
When I read the HBP book I was convinced that JK Rowling was setting up a Harry/Luna relationship. I thought that Ginny would be killed by Voldemort in the last book and that would leave Harry with Luna, something like that. The whole Ginny relationship was IMO one of the only mis-steps JKR made. Harry only speaks to her something like 3 times in the entire series then we're supposed to buy that she's the one he's destined to end up with?? Funny. In the epilogue she should have shocked us by having Harry married to Luna and Ginny with someone else. I would have liked that twist.

I think they ended the HBP film in that way, with Ron looking at Harry and Hermione standing together because that sets up the next film where Ron thinks Hermione chooses Harry over him.
 
I completely understand what you mean about shutting yourself away, i just want to go 'lose myself' in Harry Potter i suppose, i just know it will take my mind off things and act as a comfort. They have actually gotten me through some rough times to be fair, without getting all cheesy haha.

I'm crying a bit now and its just so stupid, i think i'm going to have to go and sleep, sort myself out, my heaRAB just full of stuff now! But i suppose crying does help. Get it out the way!

Well thankyou so much JJ, you have been an amazing help, seriously :)

So i'm gonna try sleep now, will try get back on ASAP, but i will try and not bring it up much again then as i dont want people on here getting annoyed, this is a HP thread after all! lol

But again, thankyou! Night JimmyJoe

LOL good! I expect to see you posting :p

Your right the Leona thread lacks any fun so wouldn't really recommend it unless you have a love of facts and figures! Nothing like this place or the Hope thread :D

Hot is WICKED! Theres another song called I Apologise- its a collaboration with Pharrell Williams! :D Girls have done well! :D
 
It wouldn't have made sense for the kid Riddle to speak posh because he lives at the orphanage. As for the teenager, it's easy to buy that Riddle started putting on more of an 'educated' voice once he learnt of his true background as the heir of Slytherin and all that. He sounRAB like a real snooty Eton boy, and that's perfect for the young Voldemort. Great performances from both young actors.
 
I saw the film today.

I found it a tad disapointing.. there seemed to be no clear plot until the end.. the film just seemed to tick over with small stories like the whole love potion/relationship theme and then suddenly picked up towarRAB the end.

There were some good bits, it wasn't a terrible film and I'm glad I saw it.. but it lacked the "wow factor" for me. The Tom Riddle scenes where good I thought, and as for Luna.. shes the best character in the films.

But for me it lacked a great scene like they had at the end of Order of the Phoenix. Perhaps it was just the nature of the book that meant the film had to be this way. I'm sure the last two films will be a lot more clearly definied and have a more solid plot direction.

Oh and where was Harry's mourning over Sirius? Other than the cafe scene that seemed to suggest Harry was doing risky stuff in the real world, there was no hint of sadness or mourning over his loss.

Perhaps I'm being too picky.

I appreciate my comments won't go down too well with you lot as you're clearly hard core Potter fans.
 
i wouldn't follow through with it unless JK personally approved of the series and approved all the scripts before hand.
I know what you mean about the recasting - you've got used to the actors for 5 films almost 6, but i personally don't like some of them well most of them especially Hermione, DD, Ron, Snape, Flitwick, McGonagal. Its just sometimes i go in the films 'where did that come from?'
