Harry Potter and the Angst Year of DOOM!
Jul. 13th, 2007 12:48 amI think me & Amalin decided at some point that the OoTP movie (or rather, OoTP!Harry specifically) exists just for the two of us :D :D
I don't know what to say about this movie 'cause I've said so much of it in comments already that I'm like "....I LOVED IT OKAY". And it's not like it's perfect or anything, obviously it could've been so much more, but then OoTP was huge and imperfect too. There's some kind of parallel in there somewhere.
Maybe I'll write a review after I see it again on Saturday. It definitely makes me want to write about Harry again, and it makes me want the seventh book and it makes me want to reread OoTP and it just makes me want to wallow, because HARRY IS MY W00BIE, OKAY, HE JUST IS. :O
The most fun I had was a) Harry (DanRad nonwithstanding)-- Harry and his angst, Harry and his need for father figures, Harry and his snappy temper, Harry and his loneliness, Harry and his getting into teaching the DA, Harry and the way he wanted to go for Malfoy's throat, Harry and his green eyes when Voldy was inside him, HarryHarryHarry, The Boy Who Grew Up Too Fast; b) Luna-- Luna and her white-blonde curls that kinda glow in the dark, Luna and her high voice, Luna and her calm observations, Luna and finding lost things unexpectedly, Luna and Nargles charms, they're quite effective you know; c) SIRIUS+HARRY!!-- Harry hugging Sirius, Sirius and his 'Good one, James!', Sirius and his hot friend James Potter, whom he ran to at 16, Sirius and his SEXY BEARD THINGIE, Sirius and his sexy robe after he did the Padfoot-at-the-train-station stunt, Sirius and being a complete arse and quite a good role-model, if he does say so himself; d) Ron+Hermiiiioneeee, sittin' on a TREEeee, K-I-S-S-I-N-G!!; e) suited!Voldy; f) that unnamed hot boy with long black hair and blue eyes in the DA; g) OMG YOUNG!SNAPE HEHEHEH.
I loved seeing the Ministry (just like I imagined it!!) & 12 Grimmauld and the tapestry (wah, no portrait!!), and Dudley, omg Dudley and his CHAIN and Harry and his EMO and his DEAD BOYFRIEND <33333333333. I love Harry so much, I think I'm going to burst and scatter into a million tiny little pieces. I want to finish writing my Sirius+Harry genfic, and I want to give Harry his little house, the one Sirius would've liked, and I want Harry to beat Malfoy up onscreen with the snitch in his fist and his snarling face like he's about to pass out, too bad that's not gonna happen. >___>
Um. Also:
"LEAVE ME ALONE, MALFOY!!" <3<3
"We'll never be quits, Harry Potter!!"
(Okay, Draco didn't say that last part, BUT YOU KNOW HE THOUGHT IT, AHAHAHAHAHLAKSFJASLKJkjlkjlkj)

Date: 2007-07-14 07:17 am (UTC)I like that the cover is blue also!! And I have special nostalgic attachment to the blue American edition 'cause it's the book where I really fell for Harry Potter, Angst Boy Extraordinaire. <3<3<3<3<3.
Both my friends in Seattle are sorta... not that crazy about it (though they don't hate it). I'm like :( but it's not a knife through the heart 'cause I'm used to it. ^^; I'd be shocked if they were like 'omg, OoTP!! HARRY!!! BABY!!' (because isn't it just us chickens?) On some level I feel better knowing not everyone can grok emo!Harry's gr8ness :D :D
