Oh dear gods, the trailers are up Well, at least the site that hosts the trailers. None of the trailer links are working. Figures. But the pics give you a good clue on how they marketed this to Hollywood: "Harry Potter Does The Lord Of The DaVinci Code! Woo Doggy!" The fact that they're calling … Continue reading Lord of the Harry…er, Potter of the Rings…er…

Harry Potter & The Deathly Hallows, okay, it’s Monday
Yes, it's a great read. It's a roller coaster -- JKR's writing style is stiff at times, but it's the world, the characters & the story she's created that make this worth it. Honestly, Tolkien was a harder read. I've heard folks call Rowling "pedantic"*, but they need to slog through the whole Lord of … Continue reading Harry Potter & The Deathly Hallows, okay, it’s Monday
To The Pagan Community of Harry Potter “Fans”:
An Open Note to all the Neo-Pagans/Goth/Wiccan-wannabes who hang out at bookstores during Harry Potter & other fantasy events: Shut up. It's a FANTASY book. It's a FANTASY KIDS book.

The Ultimate Harry Potter Spoiler…
...the last line of Deathly Hallows: "You want fries with that, Scarface?" Snape said. (and if you take THAT seriously, you need to back away from the computer & go outside to real life for a bit.)
Harry Potter & The Last Week…
Okay. With only 4 more days to go, it's time for my final predictions for Harry Potter & The Deathly Hallows. You might remember this post, and I stand by what I said there (as a note, no, I have NOT read the leaked book and I give absolutely no credence to the so-called "epilogue" … Continue reading Harry Potter & The Last Week…
Order Of The Dark Phoenix Is Rising…
oh. my. god. I just came back from "Harry Potter & The Order Of The Phoenix." Oh. My. GODS. This is the best of all the movies so far. Fair warning: because the BOOK is, THIS movie is also the darkest of the series so far. The opening sequence grabs you (Harry & Dudley vs … Continue reading Order Of The Dark Phoenix Is Rising…
