      Not a Harry Potter reader (I haven't read the books, seen the movies, etc.), but Evil if that is a spoiler you are a little ****.

        Did something I've never done before... reported a poster.

        Damn, that pisses me off!

          Because of a possible (arguable) spoiler in a book you've never read ?

            I don't like Harry Potter books. I don't like its bags, glasses, cups, notebooks, sandals, T-shirts, toilet papers and buttons either.
            I watched you fall. I think I pushed.

              It's the principle of the thing.

                Nor does the author actually, she thinks it's tacky. Almost all of it is movie merchandising produced by Warner Brothers - the book merchandising produced by the publishers (damn, forgotten the name) are not quite so bad.

                  I never got into to it (saw the first fiml, and found it cute, but that's it).

                  Seeing so many of you getting hyped about it though, I might eventualy pick it up at the library (first episode).
                  Is God willing to prevent evil, but not able? Then he is not omnipotent. Is he able, but not willing? Then he is malevolent. Is he both able and willing? Then whence cometh evil? Is he neither able nor willing?

                    Alva - film is nothing similar to the book. It's not too similar, and definitely not as good. I found the film being average at best, and hardly suited for anyone over 14. Books are, though, a good read, and adults can enjoy them too. I remember Stephen King saying that he found the books enjoyable and well-written.

                      I'll probably get it in a few days. I assume it'll be all sold out tomorrow . But they'll get a new shipment in soon. I don't NEED to read it on the first day it comes out, but I do need to read it soon, I think . No more than a week after release I'll get it.

                      Hopefully there will be some available tomorrow, if I decide to go to the mall.
