The Eighth Harry Potter Movie
Lines:
I have friends who have dated friend's younger siblings. As long as the older sibling is okay with it, I don't see the big deal.
Ballard:
Yeah but quite often they're not..
Dissy:
Fuck Harry Potter. Seriously, how can anybody read those books and not come away rom them disgusted. The prose is awful, the dialogue is reminiscent of the worst B-movies. All in all, they are shitty novels And I still haven't read six or seven.
minorbird:
Rowling isn't the greatest writer that ever lived, and I think that awful epilogue is testament to that. But considering that a lot of people started reading the books when they were very young (I was 8 I think?) they were drawn into the imaginative aspects of the world that she's created, like the spells and monsters - not the amazingly sosphisticated dialogue, or the beautifully written prose. Yeah of course, ten years later I can look back and see because of the wider reading I've done that she's not the greatest, but not only did she improve considerably from Philosopher's Stone to Deathly Hallows but she did do a lot in getting kids actually reading books. Plus, its the nostalgia of dipping into that imaginative journey with Harry and pals every once and a while that I find enjoyable. But yeah, the books aren't everyone cups of tea. And I've definetly seen some B-movies with much worse dialogue.
Dimmukane:
I don't know, I've seen some pretty bad B-movies.
