It might.

I saw the movie. It was good, except for dumbledore. Dumbledoor was way too emotional and tense. It's really too bad that the other dude died :(

everything I've read from Rowlings in interviews says one more book... she might take Harry through more than one year in that book though...

Nothing really seemed to happen in the latest book (except for the Big Action Setpiece near the end, of course). It seemed to lack the energy that the other books had. And it was repetitive... like Harry's trips to Dumbledore's office, and Dumbledore having to spell out the meaning of the pensieve images every fucking time. Pissed me off.

But that said the fourth book was rather good. Probably my second favourite (behind Azkaban).

I hate the movies to death though. There are only three reasons I'm planning on going to this latest one. In order of importance:

-Brendan Gleeson as Mad Eye Moody (this man can honestly do no wrong)
-Jonny Greenwood and
-Phil Selway from Radiohead, in cameo appearances as the Weird Sisters band.


Still, should be mildly entertaining. Doesn't open here for a little while though methinks. Oh well.

*smacks Mobus* Thanks a lot...I knew about the 'who' died but not the 'who killed him' bit.

The irony is almost sickening.

Almost.

Pfft. I know you aren't slow readers. So you can only blame your delay in buying the book for the unwanted spoiler spoiling your time.

Of course, in hindsight if your like me and just watch the movies without reading the books, then that would be a big spoiler indeed.
