Potter Mania!
Posted by Frank J. at 11:45 AM | View blog reactions | Comments (10)

Hooray! The new Harry Potter movie premieres today! And, if you're like me, you've got Potter Fever! The symptoms of which are:

* Irritable mood swings.
* Blood in your stool.
* Loss of sense of purpose.
* Projectile vomiting.
* Respiratory trouble.
* Violent hallucinations.

If you have all that, no reason to call Dr. House; you're infected with Potter Fever and the only cure is to go see the movie! I already pre-ordered tickets for the DLP showing (no cigarette burns for me) at the local cinema. I hear this one is quite different from the book, though. For one thing, the pictures will move. Also, while the book was almost all text, there will be very little reading in the movie. Furthermore, I can't take it to the can or whap my cat with it. Despite the differences of the movie from the book, I'm sure I'll enjoy it (currently, Rotten Tomatoes has it at 89%!).

One thing, though, this one is rated PG-13. Here is a list of what's in the movie that might not be appropriate for children. Another thing I'd add to the list is that I might be there, and I'll hurt your children if they make noise.

Potter Mania! Yay!

Rating: 0.8/5 (2 votes cast)

Frank J, you made reference to Dr. House.

Bra-VO!

...Sorry.

But Frank, the pictures do move in Hary Potter.

That's what I get for not proofreading.

and here I thought those were all side effects of that poll they showed on the news the other night where the majority of democrats polled would vote for hillary for president.
ooops - here comes more projectile vomiting.

Hmmm with symptoms like that perhaps I will wait a few days before seeing the movie. That way I avoid attending a showing full of vomitous, violent, asthmatics seeking treatment.

i went to it this afternoon--better than the last adaptation (which i didn't like)--maybe slightly better than the first two

ralph finnes is da bomb

fleur is nothing like i expected--especially after the last book

emma watson has lost the ability to act somewhere along the line

I saw it at a sneek preview last night. It was a pretty awesome movie, but quite a bit darker than the earlier ones.

The full frontal elf nudity was shocking....

The Onion graphic about how Goblet earned its PG rating mentions ear-cutting. I'm guessing the writer reads VG Cats.

Did anyone else notice that the Death Eaters were wearing Klan hats?

A different color, but Klan hats all the same...
