It wasn't harry's parents that were special. Harry was and of course he was too little to stay away from his parents so they were also hidden. Another reason is that is some one knows where they were then it'll b easy 2 figure out where harry would b.
Voldemort went after harry and he killed harry's parents coz they were trying 2 protect harry.
Haven't u read book 5. If not you need 2 to stay updated.

I have, but the book was so twisty and lacking a def plot, I find it hard to remember the stuff from it. I realy hope book 6 is better!

But I'm still a HP fan - I read Goblet of Fire in one day, and Order of the Phoenix in a day and a half - I don't put the book down until I'm finsihed!

Yeah u don't feel like putting it down till its finished.
The book5 was really boring as compared 2 others but the exit of fred and george was excellent and very kewl.
u are really a very fast reader , i read a lot but my speed isn't THAT good.

Yup! People used to think I wasn't taking the book in, but if they quizzed me afterwards, I could answer them!

Anyone going to movie 5 when it comes out?

Mind you, hasn't Rowling already said that Harry isn't the half-blood prince?

But I'm sure he will turn evil in the last book....

By the way, exactly why did Voldemort go after Harry's parents anyway? What made them so special they had to be hidden away?

oopsy.. i didnt know that JK Rowling said that.. sorry about that!

Its coming out on 18th nov (thats my friends b'day so can't forget it). I am surely gonna watch it. can't miss something like that.

I read the book in a 2 days apporximately. Think I read all the books in total of 5 times, but Prisoner of Azakaban more, since it was my fav.

Even thought he movies can be disappointments, I still watch them, just because they can be good sometimes. But hopefully all the actors will still be there, I love them to bits.

I was wondering, how about HP became an anime? I'd watch it in a instant, especially since there is so many doujin about HP too.

Wow, you guys sure are speed readers. ^^; I read all the book more or less than 6 times. It takes me about a whole day (once I read I don't stop for anything..XD) so I read like 24hrs straight until I finish. e-e;; HP is just so addicting. lol

I'm definitely gonna go see the movies. They were all good but they didn't reachmy expectations but its fine. I still love them nonetheless. =D I can't wait until book 6 comes out and the movie too!! Wow, HP fans are sooooo gonna be chaotic this year! xP

When book 5 came out, it was OMG, no words can describe it, a herd maybe is the mild way of putting it. Heard it was more chaotic in the UK though, especially considering JKR actually lives there.

My dream is to get one of my books, more likely all of them actually, to get signed by her, I'd really love that ^^

S. Espoire · « **Reply #148 on:** June 01 2005, 02:41 pm »

I've read all the books more than once but have lost count. It will b extreamly cool if hp will turn into an anime. i won't miss it for anything and for the first time my other friends will b interested in animes too then.

I've only read the second book and I'm reading the first one now. I only read the second one first cause I had already seen the movie but I decided to read the first book. I've also seen all the movies and I can' wait till the next one comes out^_^

Ruby Chan · « **Reply #151 on:** June 01 2005, 02:56 pm »

Interesting..a lot of people got into it the other way round....seeing the movies before the books, do you think the books are better, or the movies.

Just interested, as most people who start with the books prefer them over the movies.

S. Espoire · « **Reply #152 on:** June 01 2005, 03:06 pm »

All of my friends are HP fans.
Nearly all of us started when we saw the movie1 so we got interested but we do prefer the books now.
Can't wait for book6.

Harumi · « **Reply #153 on:** June 01 2005, 03:16 pm »

Well I prefer the books over the movies because the books don't keep anythig out but I think of both of them as the same I guess. Not really sure^^;; so I think I like both but the books just a little more.

fisah · « **Reply #154 on:** June 01 2005, 04:16 pm »

I started with the books, I perfer the books too. Usually, people I know start in the middle of the series, considering its where the action starts. Book 2 is really good though, but my fav is book 3, with book 4 as a second then book 5.

Ruby Chan · « **Reply #155 on:** June 01 2005, 04:23 pm »

My year 5 teacher was a HP fanatic, so she read it chapter by chapter to us in free time. I got hooked, so i bought the book, anf got every sequel that came out from then on in - even the Red Nose Day mini ones!

S. Espoire · « **Reply #156 on:** June 01 2005, 04:24 pm »

I started with book 3 and then read in the correct sequence. when I started with book 3 i didn't even know that it was a series so i was like- "What kind of an ending was that?" There is nowhere written on the books that this is book2 or 3 etc so I was confused untill my friend from whom i had borrowed the book told me.

ani · « **Reply #157 on:** June 01 2005, 09:28 pm »

i prefer the books ove the movies too!

its just sometimes they miss out on parts of the book.. and i know you can't incorporate *everything* but they missed out someone..

PEEVES!

Ruby Chan · « **Reply #158 on:** June 01 2005, 09:38 pm »

I hated the third movie. They went for cheap laughs and puns, instead of the story's plot. They made Lupin's condition seem funny (Hermione hitting him) instead of sad, and hacked out half the plot to put in scenes that would 'appeal' to their stereotypical audience.

The other two weren't that bad, but no.3 was rubbish.

fisah · « **Reply #159 on:** June 02 2005, 01:54 am »

Yay, someone agrees with me! *does a jig* Every time people tell me the 3rd one was the best, but they don't know what there talking about, because it wasn't funny, I especially hated the Knight Bus scene, what was with teh jamaican talking head? Was that seriously trying to be funny? *groans*
