TICKS!!!!

[cornerofmadness]

I went to see Harry Potter tonight and it was ruined by a) the gaggle of preteen girls who giggled loudly for three hours (You should be legally allowed to kill them) and TICKS. OMG. First I felt something on my arm and I scratched it and it was a tick. I've dealt with enough of them with Kyo that I know their feel. I flick it away in a panic.

Ten minutes later I felt something on my knee. Another tick. THis went on for SIX times. I don'tknow if there was a massive infection or the same persistent mother fucker but I ended up moving my seat for the last 45 minutes and wasn't bothered any more. god...



Okay I LOATHED this book. Let me get that out of the way. It was a h orrible long trudge and I actually had to keep getting it out of the library to finish it. I went into this expecting nothing.

It wasn't bad. It wasn't great. It was just....there and very very fragmentary. It wasn't as horrid as it could have been.

I loved loved Bellatrix. She's so batshit insane. Reminded me of Dru

I didn't like the duel with Malfoy...in that there's no follow up. Harry left him bleeding out in the bathroom yet there is no thoughts about this, no punishment, no questioning, just ladeedaa

It occurs to me that these kids have grown up not particularly attractive, the boys that is.

eh, so I saw it. I'm in no hurry to own it thought

I know . . .

Chase and I are always like 'our Harry and Draco are much sexier:





and they're decidedly adult.

And I can't find the *good* pictures!

ah yes nice

not particularly attractive

[mustangsally78.livejournal.com]

So much hinged on 'recasting' because neither of us liked the real actors' looks - and they were too young for either of us to think they were hot.

Besides, when you go that AU, you may as well recast.

Re: not particularly attractive

[cornerofmadness.livejournal.com]

EWWWWW

i know right

You would like Bellatrix. But now that I think about it, she could be Dru's sister in the afterlife. ;P That would be fun. I've heard it's the "best one yet" but I'm still thinking #4 was the best.

Figures there would be no interrogation since...well, I'm not really sure why the wizarding world even bothers with rules. *head/desk*

[cornerofmadness.livejournal.com]

definitely NOT the best one, not even close. the FX are cool though.

i'm pretty sure there was one in the book and something major is changed at the end too

[mulzrule.livejournal.com]

If the FX were good, then not all is lost.

one scene with Dumbledore in the Horacrux cave was impressive

Ew, ticks. Bloodsucking insects are never fun.

I thought Daniel Radcliffe (guy who plays Harry), grew up reasonably good looking. He looked pretty hot in those naked pictures that were circulating around the internet a couple of years ago when he did that play, Equus.

no they're not

at one point Ginny describes him as extraordinary ordinary and that fits. It's not like he's ugly but he's not anything beyond ordinary, at least to me
