Sweet! I'll hopefully start doing that when I re-buy some of the books. I was bad at taking care of books some years ago, and I don't like the way mistreadted books look >_<
Ohhh you sound like my friend Sarah. I hate borrowing my books to her they always come back in bad condition. I'm like geezuz, where the hell did you take my book why the cover is coming off and there's dirt all over the back! xDD
Yeh that blows .. mine is kinda tattered and i've only owned it a few months. That's coz i took it on holiday with me and forgot to take it outta my bag so it got a lil wet. Nivvy has it now though ...
The Harry Potter movies are just okay to me. ^^;; I hate it though when they totally change stuff from the book. x_x;; They're not even good changes. >.>;;
I'm finding it real funny though that the movies are scrambling to shove Ginny in movie-goer's faces. xDDD;; I'm assuming you both read all the books already (it seems like it xD), so, yeah, you probably know the reason why. I find it kinda sad though that Dan and Bonnie don't have chemistry on screen. =\ Dan and Emma though have the best chemistry, in my opinion. Makes it even more amusing when people who haven't read the books ask me about the ending couples and they assume the wrong ones are gonna happen cause of the movies. ^^;;
Ohh Nae i hate that too! I think that is why i like Twilight coz they've stuck so much to what happens in the book and not changed huge bits of it.
Which character is Bonnie? *is bad with real names* xD.
I don't like the Ron/Hermione thing - Just doesn't sit well with me, i also don't like the Harry/Ginny thing - it seems ... "out of the blue". Like he just suddenly starts having all these feelings for her when he didn't give to flicks about her before.
My brother still doesn't know what happened in the last 2 books. He refuses to know what is gonna happen (he doesn't read books) but he's adamant he's gonna wait to see the last movie and NOBODY is allowed to tell him anything about what happens in the books xDD.
True... Although I found it funny that Kirsten (Bella) kinda lacked emotion while Robert (Edward) had too much emotion and angst. xDDD;; Could just be me though. 8DD;;
And Bonnie is Ginny. =P
And I'm neutral now about the pairings in the book. Ron/Hermione is possible for me, but I find it kinda hard to believe that they lasted 17 years together. >.>;; I mean, I could see them dating, but not actually marrying each other. Unless they mature, of course, but I didn't get the "mature" feeling in the epilogue, so, yeah. =|
Harry/Ginny was SO out of the blue for me too. >.>;; Like, he barely talks to her through books 1-5, and suddenly he's proclaiming love to her and saying she's his true love? o_o;; Sure, she appears in books 2 and 5 more prominently, and I could see that they had SOME (little) moments. But, I swear, their thing in book 6 is all about lust for me, sorry. >.>;; Doesn't help that he realized his love for her because of his "evil green monster" in his chest that roars in triumph when he kisses her and stuff. =| Yup, screams lust to me. ^^;;
The most realistic pairing for me is Harry/Hermione, to be honest. 8DD;; At least, the one I could see actually making it through marriage. xDD;; But, we all know how that ship sunk. =P
And OMG! I have a friend who's like that too! xDD;; Too bad she really thinks that it's going to end up with Harry/Hermione. ^^;; I wish I could warn her not to get too invested in the idea, else she might just get depressed (yeah, she's the type to obsess too much). ^^;;
True... Although I found it funny that Kirsten (Bella) kinda lacked emotion while Robert (Edward) had too much emotion and angst. xDDD;; Could just be me though. 8DD;;
Nope, you are not the only one that felt that way. I enjoyed the movie, but it just felt so...off from the feelings the book evoked in me, it felt dull.
Ron and Hermione is more solid than Harry and Ginny, though. It does seem out of the blue. One minute she's crushing on him. The next, nothing is mentioned, and then, he's totally going out with her >_>
Still wish Harry and Hermione would have happened, but that's okay.
I will never let J.K. Rowling name my children. Ever.
Nae - Yeh i agree with you. Ginny just isn't in the picture enough for Harry to be feeling that way for her and then be marrying her! xD. Lols my brother thinks that Harry is gonna die ... (well he does) but we all know what happens after xD and he's also rooting for Hermione/Harry haha. So funny!
You know i never noticed that before Nae. But now that i think about it your right! Bella (kirsten) just doesn't have the same passion ... as Edward (rob). I really don't think she's that good of an actor to be honest. She doesn't do the character justice. I was soo annoyed with the last scene (when they were going to the ball). In the book your made to feel like this is a crucial point in the story... your hearts pumping as it mentions how gorgeous she looks & the way Edward feels as he looks at her etc etc ... But in the movie i'm like omg, are you serious?! It was so rushed and she didn't look stunning she looked plain and boring.
Platty - Bwahaha i'd say! She has nooo imagination in that area xD. I'd never call my kid Harry. But i do have a friend who named her daughter Hermione lol.
Wow, apparently I'm not the only one who saw Harry/Hermione. xDD;; I was rooting for them the most, because they were all about subtle and loyalty and all that mature jazz. 8DD;; <3<3
And OMG. I lol'd so hard on Albus Severus as a name. xDDDDD;; I would want to kill myself if I had a name like that. >.>;; Lolz, not really, but you get what I mean. ^^;;
And Nivvy, I totally agree. D: I was, like, "WHUH?! Where'd you two loving each other and being each others' soulmates come from?!" D: Although, I'm probably just irritated that JK is so insistent that they're soulmates in her interviews when she doesn't show it very well in the books. >.>;; That in itself tells me the bad parts about her writing. ^^;;
OMG. That threw me totally off guard too. @[email protected] I could see it, but, you know. >.>;; There's a difference between speculating and making it canon. ^^;;
