Inevitable Harry Potter post?!

I actually caught the early advance showing this Wed, but it's opening around the world today/tomorrow right?

Anyway, some call it a movie length trailer, but I honestly thought the whole thing was incredibly refreshing. The direction of the movie mirrors the book, but it definitely finally feels that it's a world where the adults aren't just overgrown children, which is pretty much the problem I had with trying to read the later books after Goblet of Fire.

That's right, I never really payed any more attention to the books after a certain point. It was mostly cause I had grown out of the age-set, and the books' tone never really did. So yeah, I went into Deathly Hallows almost completely blind (I read up to a certain point, but that was less than half the movie).

So from a person with a bit of knowledge from browsing Wikipedia, I'd say it was a great movie, very exciting, love the much much much more serious and menacing tone, I sorely wish I could see the whole movie now instead of 6 months later :(

Also for legality, behind the cut: Jason Issacs, with stubble :3 (no spoilers, just him being sexier than usual) and for REAL legality, a comic of sorts.

Prof. Slughorn seemed to be the only "good" Slytherin I can think of. Still, ambition and a desire for personal power aren't inherently "bad" things,

True, though even he is driven by a desperate need for approval (from his Slug Club) As Dumbledore put it "He .. likes the company of the famous, the successful and the powerful. He enjoys the feeling that he influences these people. He has never wanted to occupy the throne himself. He prefers the backseat; there is more room to spread out."
