Sorry, the "Harry who?" option or whatever it is was completely sarcastic. I think everyone on the planet who hasn't been living in a cave knows who Harry Potter is. That's the "I don't really care" option.Robert Treder wrote:There's no option for me on that poll. I don't hate Harry Potter, but I know full well who he is.

Re: Harry Potter: Numero Cinco!
Couldn't vote for the last choice, because while I do love Jesus, I think that the HP books are no more demonic than LoTR. That being said, I've never read a HP book, because they're kids books, and I haven't read kids books in a long time. Maybe when we finally adopt one...Zaia wrote:Ok, 'fess up.

The only reason I've preordered it from Amazon is because it's half price. And the only reason i bought Goblet of Fire on the day it was realise was because I was shopping on that day anyway! Honest! *twitch*

I'll probably wait until the hubub dies down or maybe until it gets released in paperback (yes i'm a cheapskate).
I didn't really see what was so good about the first two but i enojoyed 3 and 4. They were darker and the characters have developed a bit. And i might say it's about high time someone important gets offed, their developing Rincewind level character shields for christs sake!

Oh so you haven't seen the ALotD for the Harry/Malfoy gay fanfiction collection.(Thats right, you heard correctly, there is no god)Alex Moon wrote:I'll probably buy it if I've found work by then.
Hmm, so Harry and his friends should be 15-16 in this next book? Damn, it's almost to the point where we can start pumping out fanfiction in which the girls discover the secret 'wandus vibratus' spell and it won't be considered sick and creepy. [JOKE! -ed]
I'll probly buy the book on Saturday if I can, but I won't be reading it til the 12 of July when I fly up to Pennsylvania for 3 weeks>

I haven't read any Harry Potter, and I don't plan to. That particular series holds no interest for me.

HP is good car and airplane reading. The movies are a fun way to spend an few hours. The thing that's really special about them is that they've gotten little kids to turn off the fucking TV and read a book, and since I'm 22 and my personal library can be measured in cubic yards, that doesn't really apply to me.
