I made him read the first book several years ago, but he just didn't get hooked. I had to take my son to the movies a few weeks ago. My son, Tyler, loves them and it is something we can share together. We were reading #7 together today as we are at the same spot. He was getting a little teary-eyed. I keep reminding him that it is fiction.enickelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07871730594707218355noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36309843.post-86107076153093581132007-07-30T04:50:00.000+01:002007-07-30T04:50:00.000+01:00I am not reading the books either, and I definitel...I am not reading the books either, and I definitely agree that the movies are pretty dark--and I've heard that the books are even more dark (that is why I am not reading them!)Elizabeth Chttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11692480191766364022noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36309843.post-33185186308642054412007-07-24T19:36:00.000+01:002007-07-24T19:36:00.000+01:00oh i'm very sad. but that's ok, it's not everyones...oh i'm very sad. but that's ok, it's not everyones cup of tea. i think potter is great fun. sorry you are sick of it! i can understand the overkill being in england and all. i haven't seen much over here. i got my copy by casually walking into target on saturday afternoon. but i will say that all the people i know who read it do it because they like the story. no it's not going to win a pulitzer, but there's no harm in enjoying a good thing, right? it is a bit dark, but no worse than star wars or lord of the rings (which i love too, yes i'm a fantasy geek)<BR/><BR/>ps - i was going to tell you that i can do a favicon for your blog if you want. let me know ;)sherriehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13920718448583269288noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36309843.post-42916499292463777502007-07-23T17:20:00.000+01:002007-07-23T17:20:00.000+01:00FINALLY!

And like you, I started to watch the first movie and found it to be way too dark for my taste! When I watch a movie (or read a book for that matter), I want it to be uplifting and inspiring! I think Harry is to dark, gruesome, and strange. Like you said, it does not offer enough good to the world for all the hype it gets.Molliehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02008687764830242359noreply@blogger.com
