Brilliant. Can't wait to see it ... I've heard nothing but good stuff ...
Awesome, I wish I could've gone.
Groovy!! Top million ??
*sigh* So much for my hopes of a Dumble-phoenix rising from the white tomb. Drat.
Awesome. I so wish I could've gone but at least I can still watch it! Top 10!
Yay! Any word of a video of the first night? I want to see Jon Stewart!
we were there and it was great! - nice to try and figure out what Rushdie actually did say and what JK agreed to!
I was there it was a lot of fun!! can't wate to relive the memories!!!
It was amazing. I can't wait to see it again.
This is great!
ahhhh! FINALLY! *watches intently*
oh i wish i was there! i got through the first like minute and then it stops working :/ maybe i'll try again later..
Can't get more than the introduction to Steven King. Then it repeats. (sigh) OMT
Yay!! I'm going to watch it right now!!
awesome!!!!!!!!!! top 20?
For some reason my computor will not let me watch it! I can'twatch music videos either. I used to be able to. I sooooooo wis i could see it!
Well i am watching the video And tried to skip to jkrowling but wouldmnt let me so now i have to watch it over now...but thats ok....
man now its not working at all :( I am so upset man....
Good interview...
Wow...amazing! i had to skip most of the beginning to get to the JKR part and the reading was excellent.wish i could have attend it. cheers~
OMG! AWESOME! Just watched the parts with JKR of course. . . . don't really know much about the other two, haven't read any of there books. It was awesome! Jo is SOOOO kewl! :D
Awww..... it looks like they cut out the part where JKR does the thumb-accross-throat thing!! But it was great seeing it again,...
That was enjoyable. And what i got out of it is Harry Ron and Hermione make it to the end, Snape is good and Dumbledore is really dead. If i could have five characters it would be Harry, Sirius, Snape, Dumbldore and Moody....I love those characters. How humble JKR is , i just think she is an awesome person.
I couldn't get the stream to work online. I tried to download it instead and it's over a gigabyte! MAN! oh well, I guess I won't be able to watch it. The text version just isn't the same. Or I could wait 483 hours for it to finish downloading. DARN! It sounds so awesome!
yay it's only 585 megabytes! I was wrong! It'll still take 445 hours though :
It's not working for my computer because I don't have any of the requirements and the links that it says to click to get them aren't even there! Disappointing!! Oh well...Maybe I'll be able to find it somewhere else if someone changes the format or something.
what ever happened to WOMBATS?? there was supposedly a second test. anyone know?
MAN when are the stupid DSL people going to service my area! Dial-up is horrible! Now its up to 631 hours! ITS SLOWING DOWN! WILL I EVER GET TO SEE THIS BEFORE I ROT TO DEATH. AT THIS RATE I'LL HAVE IT IN ABOUT 20 YEARS!
#30 something!!!!!!!!! Im watching it now!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1
Okay, unfair unfair unfair. The world is ruled by PC users and it gives them pleasure to deprive Mac users. I am a Mac user and I have a right to view the interview as much as anyone! But noooooooooo, I can't watch it because I was unwilling to join the cult of Microsoft!
awesomeness
JK Rowling is an incredible woman. I really loved the introducing JKR video, it was great, and all her quotes were smart. I wonder why they didn't let more than 6,000 people attend, they should have allowed more like one million. Sounds awesome!!!!!
My daughter & I were at night 1 so it was great to watch night 2. We think that Jo's answer to mr. Rushdie means this: Rushdie asked if his opinion that Snape is good means Dumbledore is alve and if Snape is bad then Dumbledore is dead. She said his opinion is correct (that being his assumptions about Snape) and that Dumbledore is dead. SO, Snape is bad. It was so great being there and getting to hear the 2nd night. Stephen King and John Irving were great, too.
I'm watching it now!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Sorry! Hyper!!! :)
It was fantastic! Long, but I just skipped to all of JK's parts. I felt a bit sorry for her, she took a lot of pressure from the questions. It was interesting, though. And I didn't know that she hadn't been to the US for 6 years! Wow! I like mgeiche's interpretation, I was wondering what she meant by "your opinion is right". After all, Dumbledore himself admitted he had faults.
I watched through the hole thing and it was really good. Haven't read much of king's books but I did enjoy listening about the pie eating contest how ever gross it truly was. Never picked up a john Ivings book before but I love listening to him read, I just loved Owen Meany voice ;D and of cause Jo was wonderful... nay her shoes where wonderful (loving the snakes) Jo was spectacular. and I must say they did get a lot out of her this time. Now if only I could have actually have been there.
*Princess Luna* OMG! i do wish i could've gone!!!! *grrrrrrrrrr! angry face!* Natasha x
umm.. did anyone notice they edited out the "Who would you invite to dinner question?" Curious...
That was deliciously long. =) Why is everyone on about this or that being edited out? Everything that you mentioned that you thought was cut out was in the video for me...
i loved the show! JKR is awesome! King and Irving r great too (even though i havent read their books) i have seen Carre though..great and freaky movie! yea i agree w/ starmom..i wonder y the sinner question wasnt in it??
opps ^^^ made a typo i meant to say the Dinner* question.... :)
OHH EMM GEEEE thats sooo awesome!!!!!!!!!!!! They need to make it so you can download it on your ipod though...*lightbulb goes up* yes you should do that!!!!! Wow i actually thinking today
Only 94 and a half more hours til I can watch this awesome video with the rest of you guys. Man at least its better than 400...

Loved it. I'm actually going to pick up some John Irving now, having only seen the movie versions of his books. I feel almost guilty not reading him before. Also, anyone get the distinct impression that Hagrid is going to get it in the next book? I don't mean ill will by it, but I'm sorry to say I think he's one of the unfortunate two "main characters."
I wonder why it added me twice up there. ow well at least I somehow broke the 3 minute rule by it.
I think lupins going to die...actually...i think wormtail will die..because JK said that Wormtails life debt to harry would show up in the next book...hmm and voldemort wouldnt like that would he...honestly i could not care if wormtail dies..but if lupin dies...i will cry really hard...after sirius lupins the closest thing harry has to a family(besides the weasleys)
That video was sweet!!!!I think that John Irving's preformance was best. Jo seemed very nervous and i just dont like stephen king. But go Jo!!!
I am SO EXCITED to watch it! So is my father, who was there as well! I am sorry for the people who couldn't go, but I hope you all enjoy the video.
I can only watch until the end of Whoppi Goldberg's speech. After tha it says the video is no longer availible....that is really upsetting! Katie
