Harry Potter

Let's talk Harry Potter - I'll take Harry Potter over Twilight any day! Twilight sucks in my opinion, granted I read the first three books and found out about the last one. Anyway, I read books 1-5 and stopped. I saw probably the first three movies in the theater. 

It wasn't until recently I finished watching the final three movies in 2012. I already had DVDs of 1-4, the original packaging of Stone and Chamber too. You know that all awesome all cardboard that you pull out and it flips open? I have that in the first two. I didn't realize I had four until I found the DVDs over the summer. I asked for 5-7.2 on DVD and got a box set of 1-5. 

So for Christmas I basically got 1-7.2 on DVD when I only asked for 5-7.2 the ones I needed to complete the series. 

If you could see my mantle place right now, you'd be in awe over what it has become over the last month. It looks absolutely amazing and I may be a Potter-head. I do need all the books because I lost 1-5 when I moved. I really need to get 1-7 and have them on display. 

Anyway, the most exciting thing I have that's Harry Potter related is that I have the British version of Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone. Yes, that's correct, I have the DVD version of Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone!! Yes, I did watch it to make sure, Hermione clearing says, "The Philosopher's Stone" when they are in the library. 

Why is this post about Harry Potter? Well, I'm trying to figure out a new HP fic and currently watching Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets on channel 10. Yet, I'm getting really pissed off because they've cut out too much already. Like the whole Harry flooing and Knockout Alley and and introduction of Lucius was cut out. Not to mention so much more that hasn't been it in. I really just have it as background noise because I love the music. 

Oh, and I own 1-5 soundtracks on iTunes and just waiting for Bekah to give me 6-7.2. I just love the music of Harry Potter.
