Harry Potter, Harry Potter, OH EM GEEZ, it's Harry freakin' Potter

I recently discovered how to check stats on my blog. I can see how many people have viewed my blogs, which posts have been the most popular, and what item they were using to check my blog. Out of the many page views I have gotten, 1 single view came from an Ipad. To that person who viewed me via ipad, wtf? why would you buy an ipad? I have a better idea, mail me the 400 bucks it cost to buy that thing, or you could just mail me the ipad. My golf swings have been slicing a bit lately. I could use some practice. (Tosh.0 fans will get that one)

So, this past weekend, I went to the premiere of Harry Potter. It was quite the experience. So that's what I'll be talking about in this weeks

SPOILER ALERT.

Anyways, you've been warned. So don't complain about me ruining this movie. The books should of pretty much done that. 

So first off, I attended this movie at carmike cinemas in Pocatello. We were in theatre 7 (cause someone just has to be in an odd numbered theatre). We got there about two hours before midnight. Ended up playing Solitare on our ipods for a while before my sister showed up with her friend artie (or R.D.? I don't really know...). They show up, and midnight rolls around and they show some previews for some movies. Which is unfortunate cause I believe a midnight premiere... should have a movie start at midnight. Am I crazy for thinking that? God I hope not. So that was boring until the preview for Cowboys and Aliens showed up. That preview was a joke... right? 

Anyways, at 12:25 the movie finally starts. They start off with the scene where Harry says goodbye to the Dursleys. Which was a very good scene in the book cause Harry and Dudley sort of make up which I thought was rather nice. However, they completely cut that scene out of the movie. The Dursleys are just like "see ya later harry. Good luck saving the world." Freakin Dursleys.

Anyways, right after this, the Order comes to move Harry and he releases Hedwig into the night. Which I was soooo ready to call Bull**** on. Fortunately, they brought Hedwig back to take a hit for Harry. Which I thought was a rather nice way to die. Rather than just Hedwig flopping around in his cage and some death eater's wand just happens to drift lazily to the left to hit his cage. 

Next scene, everyone is at the burrow. Lupin comes up to ask Harry Potter a question on Harry Potter trivia. He gets it right, which impressed me. Cause if my 8th grade teacher asked me what pet he had in his class the first time I went there, no way in hell I'd remember. I'm proud of HP for keeping up on his HP trivia knowledge. Next everyone returns to the burrow. George has his ear blown off. Makes his 'hole-y" joke. Haha. Big laugh. Then *bam* (insert Tim slamming his hands against a hard surface) Bill just comes up and drops the bombshell."Mad-eye is dead." Followed by such a long pause.  I'm sure everyone in that room with Bill is thinking 'hey, we were enjoying that joke. Thanks for ruining the moment. ***hole."

Next, the big cock-block scene. By the way, for those of you at home keeping track, we are only like fifteen minutes into the movie. So Harry is all pimped out the day of the wedding. Then, Ginny comes up with her back exposed (s-c-a-n-d to the a to the l-o-u-s). She asks Harry to zip her up. He does, and then they start makking (which means kissing for those of you who haven't learned tim-speak yet). Then George does some pro-sneaking around and winds up near them. Harry and Ginny, so lost in the moment, don't notice him for a little while till they look over and see him enjoying the sight. At which point, I got mad at George. Harry is about to go off and save the world. All he wants is a little action from his girl and George has to go ruin that. Bad george. That is not cool.

Oh boy, I almost forgot about this scene (by the way, I'm writing this in parts over the last week). So Ron leaves. Shocker. I know. Hermione is really sad. What does Harry do now? Dances with her. Everyone in the theatre is confused. "I don't remember this part in the book." No one actually says that. We're all thinking it. Then the song ends. Harry and Hermione share an awkward look. Then she walks away. I thought she was gonna go in for the kiss. Nah. She just goes away. Not like he's gonna save the world or anything. You couldn't give him a little peck on the cheek? Real nice. Of course that would of proven Ronnie's suspicions that they were close, but I don't care about that. I'm team Harry f***ing Potter.

So then some fighting and explosions happen. I don't really want to talk about those moments. I just want to get the moments that I find either humorous or freaky. The next scene I really care about is the horcrux scene. So Ronnie the bear returns saves Harry Potter from drowning. Thanks for that. Then Ron tries to destroy the horcrux and it explodes into this freaky smoke thing. Then a ghost Harry and a ghost Hermione emerge from the smoke trying to convince Ron that he'll fail. These ghosts are fully clothed while they are doing this. Then it cuts to a shot of Ron. Then it cuts back to the ghosts and they are naked and making out. It's tasteful naked. You can't see anything bad. The fog covers it up. Then Ron slices through it and that's it for naked ghost Harry and naked ghost Hermione. Needless to say, that scene freaked me out.

Finally, Dobby's death scene. Yes. It was sad. Portrayed really well. Almost as sad as Toy Story 3 was for me. Not quite crying but watered up the eyes. I can't believe I'm saying this but it was way sadder than the Dumbledore death was in the movie. Not in the book though. Dumbledore's death in the book was the only time I've ever cried reading a book. Sad stuff.

So yeah, that's Harry Potter 7 for you. Thank you for not sending hate mail about this. I know I probably have a terrible opinion. On I final note, I wish some of my best friends, Sean, Rob, Matt, and Mr. Kennedy the best wishes. Suffered a recent crash that sounded pretty terrifying but they're fine now. Anyways, keep it real. Thanks for reading. I'll see you when I see you.

From home sweet home,
