lol, nice to know your opinion. not everyone likes these books.

to me, the HP books are better are better than the movies.
I wonder what kind of fate awaits me?
I don't want to regret being born
There is courage inside my sadness
I believe I can grasp that radiance
The tears of the blue sky are pouring down
One day they'll change into smiles

I love the books more. I also love the movies. I love the 3rd book, but then they wreak the movie. I hated that. My favorite book.  I cried so much on the six book.  I can't wait until the 7 book. I think I know what is going to happen.

Book 3 is also my favorite. I loved that book, but I also loved book 6, even if it was a tearjerker. I'm crying just thinking about it. I truly wonder what will happen in book 7. I want to find out, and at the same time I don't. Once it's done I'll have my finality, but then I'll wish for more. I hate that!

The books are better I think, but the movies have lots of good parts in themselves too. My friend was debating whether she should read the 7th book after the 6th movie comes out. That way you would still be wondering what's gonna happen next and you wouldn't say in your head that you know how it all ends...

The books are better, not just because of the overall stupidity in some director's cases (*ahem* Movie 3), but because no amount of special effects and CGI will ever come close to someone's imagination. Nothing can compare to your own ideas and images of a story.

That is so true Ruby Chan! Imagination is far better than seeing it one screen. And it gives you the impression that you are the character and are fighting the villian or monster or whatever evil incarnate it is.

Personally I prefer the books, although movies 3 and 4 both brought forth certain elements that I really liked.

Though I think after book 4, Harry Potter kind of lost it's charm for me. Somehow, after 4, it started getting more melodramatic and dark. I thought I'd like it if HP was a little darker, but it turns out "dark" storytelling really wasn't why I started reading HP in the first place. -_-

I still read them, of course, but I haven't been very happy with the books that have come out after Goblet of Fire. They're better-written, but they somehow have less heart.

Ehm... to me, anyway, I'm sure a lot of people out there loved them. Just not me.

I think pretty much everyone loves the books a lot more than the movies. (sweatdrop)

And... the third movie... I have a love/hate relationship with it. I hate that they cut out so many important parts of the books, like over half the backstory. The ENTIRE point of the third book, taken in the perspective of the series, is to give the backstory. And the movie cut it to the bare bones. Also,

it really annoys me that they have Harry see Peter Pettigrew on the Marauder's Map halfway through the movie. It's a big hint to the truth of the situation.
Even still, it was really good.

And I think the fourth movie was all but perfect. It's the best one yet, to me.
