HP
I thought it was absolutely wonderful. My favorite of the six. I thought the cinematography was the best of the movies - the filming was so good and spot-on. The actors have really developed and I thought the acting was so good. Lavender Brown is soooo teenage girl-y and just PERFECT! I know there were two scenes that weren't in the move, but honestly, I don't care. The beginning where Harry is hitting on that random black girl is a hell of a lot more interesting than Fudge and the Prime Minister of Britain just talking. They also encompassed pretty much everything they talked about when they showed the Death Eaters destroying the Muggle bridge and reaping havoc. The scene where the Weasleys house got destroyed - not my fave, but I didn't dislike it. It was intersting. It reeeeally showed off the characteriztion of Bellatrix (WHICH WAS BRILLIANT), so I liked it. I also really liked how they made references to Malfoy and the Vanashing Cabinet throughout the movie, because in the book you didn't know WTF he was doing and it was confusing (although I never really understood why he needed the Death Eaters there to kill Dumbledore.... besides the point). The scene of Dumbledore's death was REALLY powerful and so sososososososo well done. I was concerned because they downplayed Sirius' death in the fifth movie and it wasn't that tragic. But Dumbledore's was great, powerful, sad. I'm not upset that they didn't show the funeral because his actual death was so impacting. I thought the mixture of humor and serious stuff was the best out of all the movies. Harry when he was taking the Felix Felices was brilliant. One of my favorite scenes in the movie was when Harry and Hermione were talking about Ron and Ginny.... ah. :) I thought they followed the book well. Yeah, they left some stuff out, but they have to make decisions about stuff like that. It's a long-ass book and there's only so much they can do in two and a half hours. A lot of people flipped out because there was no battle scene. This and the third book are the only books with no confrontation with Voldemort, and because of this reason alone it will be less action-packed. This really is the book with the least amount of fighting. Honestly, it's not even much of a battle when the Death Eaters are at Hogwarts. It's the Death Eaters running out while Hermione and Ron and others try to stop them. I'm not too torn up over it. OVERALL: I approve. I am content. J.K. Rowling thought it was the best one yet, and if the creator of the series thinks it's good, I don't know why anyone else should think otherwise. I don't think anything Harry Potter could ever disappoint me. :)

I've had an uncharacteristic, abnormal, maybe unhealthy obsession with tattoos lately.
(^^^ This is from the quote: “The only people for me are the mad ones, the ones who are mad to live, mad to talk, mad to be saved, desirous of everything at the same time, the ones who never yawn or say a commonplace thing, but burn, burn, burn, like fabulous yellow roman candles exploding like spiders across the stars” I really like it.)
(^^^ "I live a damned life.")
(^^^ The quote is stupid, it's like "we';; break these poker faces, like it or not." Besides that, this is seriously so cool.)
(^^^"The world is at my feet." SO COOL.)
(^^^ "Nothing happens by chance.")
(^^^....ah. Perhaps my favorite one of all.)
(^^^ "Passion will make you crazy, but is there any other way to live?" This is so cool.)

"You must stay here, with me."
You are my sweetest downfall
I loved you first, I loved you first
Beneath the sheets of paper lies my truth
I have to go, I have to go
Your hair was long when we first met
Samson went back to bed
Not much hair left on his head
He ate a slice of wonder bread and went right back to bed
And history books forgot about us and the bible didn't mention us
And the bible didn't mention us, not even once
You are my sweetest downfall
I loved you first, I loved you first
Beneath the stars came fallin' on our heads
But they're just old light, they're just old light
Your hair was long when we first met
Samson came to my bed
Told me that my hair was red
Told me I was beautiful and came into my bed
Oh I cut his hair myself one night
A pair of dull scissors in the yellow light
And he told me that I'd done alright
And kissed me 'til the mornin' light, the mornin' light
And he kissed me 'til the mornin' light
Samson went back to bed
Not much hair left on his head
Ate a slice of wonderbread and went right back to bed
Oh, we couldn't bring the columns down
Yeah we couldn't destroy a single one
And history books forgot about us
And the bible didn't mention us, not even once
You are my sweetest downfall
I loved you first
