Day Two: Your Favourite movie

So I have a bit of a thing with the movies. I really don't like them, especially the first ones, and I refuse to watch them in the movie theatre. When they're on tv I do watch, but I hated the first four. But then I saw OoTP and I actually kind of liked it. Probably because I'm not as defensive of the books from then on... Anyway, I really want to see HBP and the trailer for DH1 looks amazing.

I just...have this fear that I watching the movies will make me picture the books differently and I really love how I've pictured the books :P Most of the actors don't look/act at all like I imagine the characters (David Thewlis, I'm looking at YOU). But then, some are Helena Bonham Carter who looks better than my head-Bella.


I've finally given in and have now got a Paid Account. MORE ICONS YEAH :D I'm going to look for a good Buffy icon now, and try t do that while remaining unspoiled :/ hm.

In general I quite like movie theatres (except when they're full of people, lol) but it's my own personal ~boycot of the movies ;)

Books are almost always way cooler in our head anyway!

Awesome icon!

I think I know what you mean about the movies? Though I've never really liked any of them. I think they get worse as time goes on, but I think that perhaps some of the characterization gets better... (or at least some of the casting choices improve).

I'm just so attached to the first four books because I've read them 20+ times:P. The fifth as well, but the last two I only read twice. So I don't really mind the later movies that much, but they've got nothing on the books.

As long as I manage to forget what's supposed to happen, I can deal with it.

I was always able to see the HP movies as something completely different than the books so I've never had that many problems with them. I think I've must have seen them all in the cinema even, which is unlike with most other series. And I actually like the movies (although I do think that the first two are really weak).

Hahaha. WELCOME TO THE PAID DARK SIDE!

I have trouble separating the movies from the books, but it gets better as I am less attached to the book (ie six and seven).

I AM WEAK. :) but omg all these icoooons
