You're a wizard Harry

Harry Potter

In about seventh grade I started watching the first movie.  I never finished watching it and after that whenever I would watch the movies it was only certain parts.  Then, senior year of high school I decided I wanted to read the books.  I read the books and they were awesome.  The reason I wanted to read them was because so many people made references to them and I wanted to know what they were talking about.  I got hooked though when I started reading them.  I love to read and my boyfriend had all the books anyways so I just borrowed them from him and they were great.

Since I read the books first I had really high expectations for the movies.  My expectations were definitely met though when I watched the movies because I liked them a lot.  It’s hard to say which I prefer more though.  It’s much easier to watch the movie, it takes a lot less time and as a college student, leisure reading is really hard.  However, I will probably read the books again this summer.  I don’t think I have a preference though as to which I like better.  They are both awesome.

My favorite scene from the book and movies both is when Harry and Hermione save Buckbeak and Sirius Black.  Prisoner of Azkaban is my favorite book and I love everything about it.  For some reason I always love the bad guy in movies and books.  So when I first read about Sirius Black being the killer of Harry’s parents I hated him but then I decided, for some reason that I don’t know that I like Sirius Black.  So when I found out that he actually didn't kill Harry’s parents I was so happy.  I like this scene in the movie because it’s fun to watch Hermione hit Draco.  I like it because I like how Harry and Hermione see themselves and that’s pretty cool to me.
