SO. I have a serious problem here, somebody tell me if I'm missing something. I read the books so I understood (at least, to the extent of which it was explained rather lamely if I remember in book 7) but I went with a friend who hadn't read them and he was confused: Does the movie in any way shape or form explain the fact that Dumbledore's all HARRY HAS TO DIE and then Harry goes and Voldemort is all AVADA KEDAVRA and yet...Harry gets to come back alive! It's all Crucifixion of Christ Who Died For Our Sins but...Everyone still gets what they want in the end, happy, tralalala! In the book they had some explanation essentially of it killing the Horcrux inside of Harry but not him if I recall correctly but in the movie they really make no such distinction, Dumbledore's just like 'yeah you can go back if you want, kid." And honestly there' s no choice involved in that--what 20-year-old is just gonna die when he has the chance to go back to his bffs and a world where Voldemort is dead 4evr if he succeeds? Grrrr /rant

I disagree wholeheartedly. Ron/Harry/Draco just looked like nasty trollish womanly-hipped versions of themselves, while Hermione/Ginny looked just the same--except with expensive coats and Mom haircuts. Fail. The kids were cute though. Guess they got that part right.

BAH! I signed out of FB connect just to share this info but you beat me to it. But yeah: http://livingjourney.wordpress.com/2010/02/15/stuff-about-john-crowder/ http://livingjourney.wordpress.com/2008/06/12/john-crowder/ he's a nontraditionalist who refers to his spiritual experiences as if they were drugs. My favorite is "tokin' the ghost." he smokes an imaginary joint that is the holy spirit. AHAHAH

Apparently when his mother was on her deathbed she told him that his father was not a Jew but instead a member of the German aristocracy....i.e., a Nazi. So yeah, that's how you discover you're a nazi I guess, if you equate being descended from one with being one.

definitely not the Tara-kidnapping vampire. Franklin had way more sunken eye action/sulkiness/oldness going on.

She is super smoking hot, this I will agree with. But for me the size of her chest is sort of disconcerting...like maybe they're too big, i.e. my least favorite thing about her.

Can we talk about how even AFTER a bogo deal this kid spent 50$ on candles in one day, not counting whatever he spent on the wax trimmer although scissors will clearly do the job just as well? gooooooooodness. Wish I had that kinda disposable income.

I honestly don't think this place is entirely unreasonable...like, still totally worthy of humans living in it. But I'd die without a kitchen of some sort.

My biggest qualm about them is this: people buy them in order to feel like they're a part of the magic, like they're in the wizarding world of harry potter, etc. BUT if the ratio of delicious to disgusting jelly beans was the same in that world, none of the wizards would buy them is alls I'm saying...

best suggestion ever. even if I might feel some sympathy for the character, January Jones SUCKS in that role. Never before have I successfully been able to loathe someone so pretty.

"Great, I'm on YouTube. Now let's blow some shit up." This grants me a disturbing glimpse at the real priorities of our society...Kristin Schaal or no, this commercial gives me the heebie-jeebies.

A+ for the informed explanation! BUT. There are ads for cotton as well, which I have never understood! Have you some insight on this strangeness, perhaps? You don't even eat it! So there should be less image problems still, right?

Like the starbucks orange mocha frappucinos in zoolander! Which never really existed.
