We are dorks.
If wewere in the States, we would have bought tickets days in advace for the midnight showing, stood in line for over 8 hours, clapped when the movie started and then headed to Sharie's at three in the morning afterwards to talk about it over milkshakes.
That being said though, we were in France. The strange thing about the French is that they still think that French is the international language off the world. (The Spaniards explained this to us when we were there with many eye rolls.) So they dubbed all of their films and TV shows which made life very difficult for us.
We did it though. We found the english version of Harry Potter and saw it on its openning day. We still had to wait in line (only for like 20 minutes) and people did clap (which made me feel a little better on the inside). And let me tell you WOW.
I won't ruin it for anyone but it strays from the book quite a bit and I think that it would be hard to follow unless you had read the sixith book. All the same though... We loved it. The special effects were amazing. Truth be told, we will probably go and see it again before summer is up.

Plus, the acting substantially improved, and I like that they used humor to counteract the sever teenage angst portrayed in the book.
ReplyDeleteI'm glad you got to see it. I don't know what would have happened if you hadn't!
