They're very good stories if you're a fantasy fan, which I am. I just saw the latest movie last night, it didn't disappoint, very true to the book.

Pure escapism, that's really nice sometimes!

book 4 is by far the best... as well as #4 of the movies.

We have an imax theater nearby that is showing Harry Potter #whatever in 3-d.

I have yet to see any of the films but have thoroughly enjoyed the books. Some woman at a store told me I look like Hermoine the other day. I guess it was a particularly frizzy hair day.

One thing I noticed about this one was that the director brought in modern “mugglish” things that somehow detracted from the feel of first three movies. Like the rock band at the ball.

And the next movie, the much anticipated (at least by Paul Reubens) "Harry Potter in The Secret of the SLINGING SAUSAGE."

You should read some of the Harry Potter fan fic that's out there; it's nothing but porn.

It's England, meangreen.

I think 16 year olds can legally get naked there.

Actually Snape's my favorite character.

I heard the new movie is a winner on MPR this morning from someone who saw it...it's going to be in 3D on the Imax screen at the Minnesota Zoo...I think I'll have to take a day off work and go...

"HARRY POTTER AND THE ORDER OF THE PHOENIX, from Warner Bros. Pictures, will be digitally converted into An IMAX 3D Experience®. Using proprietary 2D to 3D conversion technology, the finale of the movie (approximately 20 minutes) will be converted into IMAX® 3D.

The movie is based on the best-selling J.K. Rowling book and is the fifth installment of the successful Harry Potter film series. In "Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix," Harry returns for his fifth year of study at Hogwarts and discovers that much of the wizarding community is in denial about the teenager's recent encounter with the evil Lord Voldemort, preferring to turn a blind eye to the news that Voldemort has returned. Fearing that Hogwarts' venerable Headmaster, Albus Dumbledore, is lying about Voldemort's return in order to undermine his power and take his job, the Minister for Magic, Cornelius Fudge, appoints a new Defense Against the Dark Arts teacher to keep watch over Dumbledore and the Hogwarts students. But Professor Dolores Umbridge's Ministry-approved course of defensive magic leaves the young wizards woefully unprepared to defend themselves against the dark forces threatening them and the entire wizarding community, so at the prompting of his friends Hermione and Ron, Harry takes matters into his own hands. Meeting secretly with a small group of students who name themselves "Dumbledore's Army," Harry teaches them how to defend themselves against the Dark Arts, preparing the courageous young wizards for the extraordinary battle that lies ahead.

HARRY POTTER AND THE ORDER OF THE PHOENIX: AN IMAX 3D"

Is Equus still running?

I can't wait for the movie. There's an IMAX theater a few minutes from here, so we intend to go see it there. I also look forward to the final book. I think the release is July 21 if I'm not mistaken.

Harry, Hermione and Ron have all signed up to do the last two movies. I'm so glad they are going to be the same actors.
