The Gratuitous Harry Potter Blog Post
Tuesday July 14, 2009
Why, yes, I did know that Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince opens tonight -- and in fact, I do have tickets to go see it at midnight! Someone tell Jason Isaacs that if he needs a date for opening night, I'll be around.

Woot!! Harry Potter! And I have to wait all the way to Saturday to see it. :c
I’m not sure when we will be able to see it. I can’t stay up late at all (I get up for work at 4 am) but I don’t want to go when there will be a lot of little kids there. Such a dilemma!
I didn’t get to go last night, but I have tickets for 5:55 p.m. today! Can’t wait!!!
Love Harry Potter. Have read the books through I don’t even know how many times now and own all DVDs so far. Same for them – no idea how many times I have watched them. Now the Pope finally says oh yeah it’s good stuff. Has all those redeeming qualities about family, friends, sacrifice, fighting evil. Gee. wonder what he was watching before when he condemned Harry? ALL the movies and books have those values.

Dunno if I like that, though. LOL. I kind of like being edgy.
Gratuitous or not, this needs to be said. Goddess Bless Harry Potter (well, really, J.K.:)
Didn’t go midnight, but just came from the theater. Was great and can’t wait for the next.
I saw it at 1:00 on Wednesday afternoon. We made it a family affair – something we couldn’t do at a midnight showing. Great film!
Don’t waste your money! Of course everyone who has enjoyed the last few Harry Potters will go to see it expecting the same quality – BUT – the movie was sadly lacking substance – to the point of boredom. Too many seconds spent on longing looks between teenagers and no time spent on the story – especially not on the Half Blood Princes story – not even the genuine grief and anguish at the demise of our dear professor. The whole thing was emotionally flat – script and editing abysmal. If this is the quality we can expect for the next 2 – I’m out – will just curl up with the excellent book again!
Of course everyone is entitled to their opinion, but I have to say it was AWESOME!! Lacking substance it certainly was not. I thought it was as close to the books as they could get and the scene at the end was priceless, even though it wasn’t exactly as it happened in the book. IT ROCKED and people should definitely go see it!
although harry potter and the half blood prince opened here(in the UK) on wednesday,ive got to wait till saturday to see it!!!!
Yess! That was def the BEST one ! I can’t wait for THE DEATHLY HALLOWS PART 1!! It looks like the domain name for that film is for sale here?
Good Investment maybe?
