harry potter book6
ok so i watched the bloody movie last thurs. not exciting nor boring. more of disappointing. it destroyed the book completely. i mean, magic should b imagined, innit? not spoonfed. there shouldnt b a movie. j k rowling has done a good job with her english. and with the descriptions and actions already imprinted in my mind, i cant bring myself to accept the shit the movie came up with. so im sorry.
ok so i read the half-blood prince again. i sorta got it at around 12pm on sunday. yesterday, yes. then i read quite fast. around, say, 8hrs? and of course, dumbledore died. and again, it's smth the director of this sequel would not be able to bring out. well this makes the power of words more pronounced. i actually felt grieved for harry. and they said that a picture could paint a thousand words. well, not when the words came out first. the trilogy of the lord of the rings were rather much of a fiasco too, come to think of it. the story's already in the mind, and then the movie comes along and tries to destroy wat's already within? impossible. they shouldnt try to emulate the story.
well i never like harry. be it the character in the story or the movie. dont like his face. haha. but then now, i find him bit the pitiable. he has to, like, give up his relationship with ginny. ah...the last few chapters were more of sentimental. and many a time i find myself brimming with emotions. shant dwell in this lest i get accused by non-existent readers as being emo.
and i dont really like the idea of book7 coming up so soon. i wont know how best to read it. wolf down everything in desperation, thirsty for the ending, or savour it slowly and enjoy the mental torture? well i dont want this series to end, i wont know of better things to read. i havent touched a storybook for ages.
also. should i re-read the whole series? like, give harry potter the greatest honour for having run its course?
