[right][snapback]611340[/snapback][/right] [/quote] LOL meh, I don't like Harry Potter in general....I haven't read any of the books and have no desire to. I don't want to watch any of the movies either.
Noel's angel Posted June 14, 2005 Posted June 14, 2005 i watched the first movie-it was ok, but i only watched it because my older brother asked me too and i couldn't say no 'cause, well he's my bro and i liebe him

Noel's angel Posted June 14, 2005 Posted June 14, 2005 lol, you can tell me that, but don't DARE say it about Fr. Henry or I may attack you and bite your kneecaps
Brother Adam Posted June 14, 2005 Author Posted June 14, 2005 What is the reasoning behind your distaste of LOTR?
Noel's angel Posted June 14, 2005 Posted June 14, 2005 i suppose that whole genre isn't really my taste-also there is too much 'someone goes here, then he goes there' it just didn't do anything for me-i got bored
Brother Adam Posted June 14, 2005 Author Posted June 14, 2005 lol, yes, patience is a lost virtue today. Did you see the movies? Perhaps they can help get you into the spirit.
Noel's angel Posted June 14, 2005 Posted June 14, 2005 yeah-didn't like them either. I just think its one of those things you either love or hate-like Marmite or Cliff Richard
iggy Posted June 14, 2005 Posted June 14, 2005 but the movies are not nearly as good as the books. it is almost like you watch the movie so you can complain about what was better/ existed in the book
Carrie Posted June 14, 2005 Posted June 14, 2005 [quote name='jezic' date='Jun 14 2005, 11:16 AM']umm why are you betting who it is? Does it matter? hehe jk. I think it will be that giant eagle hippogriff thing. [right][snapback]611263[/snapback][/right] [/quote] Nah, not the Hippograff. I agree with Micah about Neville! I love the HP books.
sweetpea316 Posted June 14, 2005 Posted June 14, 2005 Aw... I love Harry Potter... the books and the movies... Now I feel like a loser.
Azriel Posted June 14, 2005 Posted June 14, 2005 BTW not all English teachers think its technically very poorly written... Not that I've taught in awhile ... but, I love 'em.
iggy Posted June 14, 2005 Posted June 14, 2005 [quote name='sweetpea316' date='Jun 14 2005, 12:29 PM']Aw... I love Harry Potter... the books and the movies... Now I feel like a loser. [right][snapback]611361[/snapback][/right] [/quote] Why???
jezic Posted June 14, 2005 Posted June 14, 2005 most of us don't think it is poorly written. How could anyone say that lotr was poorly written, that might prompt a personal attack (which is against the forum rules that don't exist )! LOTR is like the best ever. Priests could use it for like every homily in the world (there is a lot of Christian stuff in it and the rest is good advice regardless) Hehe, as you can tell i might be partial ....
sweetpea316 Posted June 14, 2005 Posted June 14, 2005 [quote name='iggy' date='Jun 14 2005, 12:30 PM']Why??? [right][snapback]611363[/snapback][/right] [/quote] Cuz most people think they're silly... Oh well. Just a matter of opinion I suppose.
Noel's angel Posted June 14, 2005 Posted June 14, 2005 yeah, everyone is entitled to have an opinion-loads of people hate Cliff Richard, but it doesn't make a difference to me
Kilroy the Ninja Posted June 14, 2005 Posted June 14, 2005 Sweet Pea you are certainly not a loser. There's nothing wrong with HP stories - I've enjoyed the movies and found little objectionable in them (with the exception of the use of a pentagram and the nagging feeling that people who don't use magic are losers), I simply cannot read the actual books without wanting to whip out a red pen and start bleeding all over them. I just think it's important that children who read these books or watch the movies have a good grasp on reality and the difference between it and fantasy.
jezic Posted June 14, 2005 Posted June 14, 2005 hehe, english teachers. You could do that and then send it to the publisher.
