It's finally ending, Harry

Well the fourth movie is arguably the worst of them all. The first are very... cutesy? The third is kind of out there, and the last three/four with the new director are wonderful.

Plus the upside to the books is that they take no effort. If you've got spare time (and you're a fast reader like me) you can blow through all seven in a week or less easily.

CrowFairy:
I know I'm just 21, but here's what I have to say about whether you should read them or not: I would give it a go. The books are just as charming now as when I first read them. They're easy reading, and you can make them go as quickly or as slowly as you'd like. My mom is a pretty slow reader, but she enjoyed them so much that she finished them in a matter of about six months.

In short: If you're looking for an interesting read, and you've got the time for it, then you should give 'em a shot. They deal with a lot of different themes, both dark and light. And above all, they provide a wonderful escape from the reality of work and taxes and all of the other not-fun aspects of adult life.

IMMANotListening:
It is a really good fandom to escape in; you really have to start from the first one and in chronological order. It wouldn't hurt if you had someone whose already read the books or watched the movies to really explain some elements to the story although I probably would stay clear of the really hardcore ones.

Isn't the Pottermore thing essentially one of those film websites that they had a long time ago with a social network added in? I remember seeing my peers at school a long time ago spend a lot of time on a similar sort of website...

blanktom:
Well, I've just woken up after getting back at 3am from the midnight showing here in the UK. There were quite a few moments that I'm pretty sure weren't supposed to be funny that pretty much the whole audience laughed at. But, having never actually gotten round to reading the final book, I enjoyed how it all ended, I just have no idea how faithful it all was to the original story. The Deathly Hallows films are probably my favourite of the bunch.

pwhodges:
Going tomorrow.  The tickets available today were not at times we liked, and waiting one more day won't kill us; selected an over-18s only showing.  We watched part 1 a couple of days ago to get back up to speed, of course.
