Boring Much. + HP:HBP Review

Another week passes and still nothing much happened. Okay, that was not exactly true. I did get sick and was down with fever and also an irritating case of explosive diarrhoea on Wednesday. When I woke up that day, my whole body was aching (You know those kind where your body feels so weak and susceptible to damage when you've got a fever). But yeah the point is, it wasnt fun running around in school with an unstable stomach. By end of chem lecture I was having a bad tummyache. Suddenly I remembered we had to go collect our econs result. Great.

I'm not sure why but my stomachache subsided momentarily when I was collecting results. Well aftr that I took no chances and I rushed straight home. And well. You know the rest of the story.

So crappy(bad pun) things aside, I watched Harry Potter yesterday!

Alright before the movie came out, I heard stuff that it might be a disappointment because of the lack of two memorable scenes, the battle at Hogwarts and of course, [SPOILER ALERT] the infamous scene of Dumbledore's funeral.

Due to that, I went to the movie hoping for the best. I came out, however, with mixed feelings.

Firstly I do think, unlike some of my friends, that the movie was great in its own way that it kept mostly true to the book. There was one scene, which I was both enraged and happy. When Harry potter was discovered by Draco in the train cabin, he was paralyzed yes, but aftr that was supposed to be rescued by Tonks! When I first saw it wasnt Tonks that appeared, my heart kinda sank. But then, I realised it was Luna Lovegood who took her place. Now that wasnt so bad was it? At least shes cute and cheerful.

Now back to the topic. The battle at Hogwarts was totally omitted, where some teachers and also few of the order members were help fending off intruding death eaters. Somehow, the fact that they roamed around the castle and made their way to the astronomy tower without any trouble seems weird. The only time we see the death eaters did anything in Hogwarts was to fire a random spell at a random old guy in the hallway, only to send him flying off the screen.

Okay, granted they did display some of Dumbledore's fire magic during his fight witht he inferi, but thats old skool. It reminded me too much of Gandalf's fight with Balrog in LOTR. Besides, didnt we alr saw a similar spell in OOTP when Dumbledore dueled Voldemort? Well, I just hope the last two movies will have as much, if not more action than the book.

Aight moving on, the death of Dumbledore was well executed, with him pleading* Snape to finish him off and Snape following his bidding. Alan Rickman was great as Snape in the previous films and I think he nailed it again in this movie. So without showing remorse, he casted the death curse on Dumbledore and with a momentarily flash of bright green light, Dumbledore's face slowly drained of his life and the impact of the curse caused him to fall back and off the tower, sealing his fate.

Above: Dumbledore's death by Snape. Only epic-ized a gazillion times with total geek power.

Okay so what happened next was the director's take on Dumbledore's 'funeral'. Instead of what we read in the books, with the grand wake and almost everyone including Remus Lupin and OMFGSOHOT Nymphadora Tonks appearing.So yeah the whole scene was replaced instead with a group of like 50? people gathering around Dumbledore's body at the foot of the tower and mourning his death. Minerva Mcgonagall then raised a wand into the sky, and soon others followed suit. The whole group raised their wands and together summoned a wave/flash of light into the sky which proceeds to clear the Dark Mark and also seems to be some kind of magical tribute to the late wizard. Well aftr that the movie promptly ended but not before showing the famous Dumbledore's beloved phoenix flying away, soaring into the horizon, like how Ultraman always does aftr a victory. Except that he flies into the Sun to get his ass cooked.

So all in all, the movie was great and I felt it serves as a decent movie to prepare for the next two movies - which is the final book made into two movies, part 1 and 2.

The MOVIE I'll give it a 8/10. However the movie EXPERIENCE I'll give it a 5/10. Yes. Fucking bitches behind me kept laughing their asses off at their own jokes and were disturbing a lot of people. Half of the time I bet nobody even understand what are they yapping on about. When Harry Potter went in closer to Dumbledore's body one of them behind me said 'BOO!' Their friends went on to laugh as if their fren had just gotten the biggest wedgie ever.

I mean seriously how is that even funny? Its kills the sombre mood and comic relief isnt exactly what we need at that point. Fuck man if only I were a magic-folk I would so cast the cruciatus curse on them and also letting hear Carlos Mencia's jokes. Then they will understand how I felt. The pain and all.

Finally, I leave you my selected sparse readers a delicate picture to allow you to wonder about Harry Potter's true sexuality.
