started watching the Harry Potters, in order

[fflo]

ABC Family, which is going to become some-other-named network soon, played them all the other day, and I made room on the DVR.  I think I saw 2 or 3 of them when they came out.  Early ones.  I read only the first book, and I'm not sure I read it all.

In the first movie, this time, my favorite thing was Dumbledore talking to Harry about the Mirror of Erised.

I saw all the movies except for the last 2, but it's been a while.

I just started (slowly, between other things) re-reading the books. I finished the last one in 2007, so it's been a bit.

And then I have this tucked in my back pocket, just in case.

Ooh, sweet.

I find I like being read to.

I'd be getting through far, far fewer books these days if audio books weren't a thing. I like being read to, and I like being able to listen while ____.

I love the exchange at the bed when Dumbledore gets the ear wax jelly bean.

oOOooh, me too. The deadpan-ness of it makes it even sweeter.

I really like Richard Harris as Dumbledore. I wasn't as fond of Michael Gambon's rendition of the character.

I read all the books, but only saw the first movie. My problem with a series of DVD's from the library is that they often don't arrive at the Mallets Creek branch in the right order. But I suppose it's been long enough now that I could probably get them without long waits.

[fflo.livejournal.com]

Yeah, probably so. Seems like it's Disc 1 of whatever that usually takes longest, so I tend to request just that one at first. Do you use your wish list? I added some things to mine this summer for the first time, but I haven't gone back to fetch any of them for requesting yet.

[peteralway.livejournal.com]

I've never quite fathomed the utility of the wish list, so I've never used it.

I'm a passionate Harry Pothead. So if you ever want copies of the audiobooks (there are two different versions: Stephen Fry and Jim Dale), I'll be happy to hook you up.

Aside from having some terribly sad moments, those books make me feel like a carefree kid. Since you're not a superfan you might have missed the news, but Dumbledore is gay. He had to battle with the love of his life because he turned out to be bad.
