I had this extremely long period of panic because I logged on and everything was different and I COULDN'T FIND THIS THREAD. Thought it got deleted! So glad it's still here.

How is everyone?

I'm pretty good! I work at a store that sells yarn, and sometimes people come up with red & yellow yarn and I always ask them if they're knitting a Gryffindor scarf. They almost always say yes.

This site has gotten weird. :x People can...swear now, apparently? I remember when even the most mild words were edited. Hm.

I remember reading HBP and on page 391 (UK version) I giggled endlessly. yeah, page 391, the middle of line 22 and the start of line 23. I LOVE YOU, J.K.!

Anyway, I can't wait for the movie. (:
I wanna see the Sectumsempra bit badly.

She's one of the better characters lol she makes me laugh.

I've only just seen this for some abominable reason.... but HE'S MINE!

I came on here, to tell you guys about something, slightly Potter related (mostly because it's about Radcliffes Woman in Black)

Anyways, I was googling Harry Potter pick up lines, because that's the sort of things I do in my spare time, and the guy who I have a mega crush on from work (and we've been a bit flirty towards eachother and met up outside of work a few times for movies nights at his) started talking to me asking me if I want to see Woman in Black sometime this week. I mentioned the Potter pick up lines because of Radcliffe being in Woman in Black... so it kinda fitted. And yeah. I wanted to share that with you guys. I told him no bashing Potter (he's a fan, just not as crazy about it as me), and he said he won't bash Potter, he'll just bash Radcliffe.

I miss this thread. I wish it was more active! We need to get everyone back so the page doesn't get lost again!

I heard lots of people say it's scary too. Makes me want to see it even more, even though I'm not a huge fan of scary films aha

Woman in Black has been rated wrongly. Rating it a 12A was idiotic. There were kids so terrified, screaming and crying and shaking that they had to be taken out of the cinema.

Plus, there were loads of tweens chatting and laughing after they screamed - at every. little. thing. And not a single member of staff to tell them to STFU. I feel another rant thread coming up...

It was rated 12A, that means that it's up to parents if they want their U12 to accompany them. It should have been a 15 imo. Rating a film a 12A basically says to parents "it's a bit more risky than a PG but it's not that bad really".

The last two Sherlock Holmes films were 12A too, and I can understand that, they're fine for kids if a parent wants to let them see that.

But a horror like the Woman in Black? I wonder if the BBFC actually watched the film or just saw the name Daniel Radcliffe.

Ok, so I thought I could watch Woman in Black, but after I read these comments - no way!
I really don't like scary movies that are REALLY scary...

Oh dear! I'm not good with horrors at the best of times! I can handle them better if I'm in my own house, or round a friends, because it's easier to hide. Is it really that scary, or was the tweens over-reacting? I think I might have to take a scarf to hide behind, or I'll end up clutching my friend/crush aha.

I saw it today. It was jumpy, but not as bad as I expected. Although there was a few times when I was expecting a jumpy bit, so my candy floss suddenly seemed really interesting
There was a couple of shots I couldn't look at the screen because there was a stupid clown doll, and I absolutely hate/terrified of clowns, so I looked away aha.
DanRad still can't act. We had a couple of people in the screen who kept laughing after every jumpy bit.

Although I did spend a fair amount of the film thinking, 'Now, if he just pulled out his wand and used this spell, it would make things so much more easier' aha.

I love the films and the books though I personally prefer the books! J.K Rowling has a wonderful imagination and I really do hope that she will keep on writing other books!

I love harry potter. I watch the movie and read the book like everyday
