We went to Harry Potter
We all went to Harry Potter today. The 10am show. It was so fun! And great time to go. Enough people there to have a crowd, but not mobbed or stressful in any way. Parking was a breeze. Small Boy toughed it out without any undue stress. Husband and I both really liked it. Funny and well done. Just enough teenage romantic angst. I haven't read the book recently, but I think they did a good job compressing it to what was really needed to tell a good story. The kids get cuter every year, and I fell less like a perv for perving thit time. :)
At some point, I think during Harry's test against the dragon, it came to me how much better it is than Sith. I realize this will come as a shock to no one. After all, it had a real story with well-developed characters and pretty good acting. And in a movie full of special effects, they fit. I hardly noticed them. They were part of the story. Unlike Sith, where I often went, whoa! A special effect!
Anyway, I had *none* of the video game feeling from this movie that I got from Sith.
It was awesome and I highly recommend it.
Afterwords we went next door to Uno and had pizza and tiny dinos and ice cream. Also v. fun. Then Small Boy came home to find that someone had left a new lego set in his room - The Harry Potter "Graveyard Duel."
Fun was had by all!
