HP and the HBP

[jukeboxhound_backup]

Finished Half-Blood Prince yet?  I did (six hours on Saturday night...heh).  And I am pissed, although it was much better than OotP, I thought.  Even if Harry seemed to have left all his emotion in the fifth book and forgotten it in his sixth.  I mean, who gets over the death of their godfather so fucking quickly?  I was looking forward to Hermione, Ron, and sundry others spending the summer smacking him out of his depression.

And the ending...well, let me just say that it's going to make writing Lucem Ferre an absolute bitch.  *sighs*

Saw "Charlie and the Chocolate Factory" again today.  I see it for a third time on Thursday.  *grins*  When you see it, watch Johnny Depp's face - I swear that he has the most malicious, dark expression when he's watching the kids get picked off one by one.  Liek when Veruca Salt gets attacekd by squirrels, and her father's climbing after her.  It's creepy.  I love it.  ^_^

The guy who died (no spoilers here, yet) was the only character I preferred in canon to the fanfiction.  *goes off to mourn*  And Jesus Christ, poor Harry, although I suppose this means that we won't have to worry about going back to Hogwarts next year.

Drawing Down the Moon is finally finished, and I plan to slowly go back through it and fix it up a little.  I still can't believe I actually finished a fic...excluding any sequels...

Heh! I just got back from seeing Charlie and the Chocolate Factory again.. *purrs* It's stilll good.. Who are you seeing it with on Thursday? Boyfriend? Friends? Your sister's brats?
I'm still in slight shock to what happened in HBP. x.x Agghhh. So frustrating.
Right now I really want to read a HP, Charlie and the Chocolate Factory crossover. I think Willy and Albus would get a long fabuously.. WEll, if someone good at writing humour were to write it. I'm actually kind of planning on writing one, would you care to read it, if I do write it? It'd be short.
But don't you just looooove the character Willy Wonka? Or did you only like it for Johnny Depp?
Hope you have a lovely night!!
And I loved the last chapter of Drawing Down the Moon!

I was going to go see it with my dad, but because it's family night (meaning it's matinee all day) it sold out before we could. So I saw it again the day after with a girlfriend (the Canadian one, actually. ^_^) Oi, how many times have you seen it?
Shock hardly begins to describe it. I figured DUmbledore would die, just not in THIS book...
I would love to read it. Really. *grins* I did like the old movie, but I like Depp as Wonka better. He's much creepier.
Oh, thanks. ^_^ It was so long I almost split it into two chapters, but I'm glad I didn't.
