Potter Profile - Isabel

August 2, 2009



First off, how did you become a Harry Potter fan?
I first became a fan when I was 9. I remember distinctly my mother handing me PS (SS to those americans) and telling me to read it. I reluctantly opened it to the first chapter, thinking that this was probably another stupid book my mom wanted me to read, and I couldn't put it down. The first chapter got me hooked, and it took me 24 hours to read the whole thing. It was love at first chapter.

How are you feeling now that the series is over?
I don't know what to do with my life. It's like losing your best friend in a way. I think JK Rowling was smart, though, in stopping now. I mean, they say the good die young, so in a way, it's a bit like that ... I'm just rambling now. Anyway, yes. I am very, very, overly extrordinarily sad that the series is indeed over.

So, Half-Blood Prince is out in theaters. What did you think?
Well, like any dedicated fan, I thought it was complete rubbish. It was NOTHING like the book. But in terms of entertainment, it was quite good. I thought the humor was excellent. The part where Harry is on Felix Felicis is hilarious, and Ron on love potion was fall-out-of-your-seat funny.

What part of the book was left in that you were SO EXCITED to see come to life?
The part in the movie where Harry and Ginny kiss, though completely unlike the scenario in the book, was very romantic. Bonnie played her part well, and it gave me shivers when she told him to close his eyes. *smiles* I'm betting all those fan girls were shivering in their seats as well. :)

What did the film makers leave out that left you a little disappointed?
The scene in the minister of England's office was, for some reason or other, a part I was really looking forward to. I have no idea why. Also the part where Severus explains to Bellatrix why he is not a traitor was disappointing not to see on the big screen. I was also looking forward to seeing the memory with Tom Riddle as a teenager, charming his prey into bending to his will. The kid they picked to be the child Riddle was very creepy, I must say. He played the part magnificently. Goblets raised to him.

How did you feel about the Half-Blood Prince portion of the storyline? Were you satisfied?
I think the half blood prince parts were very minimal in the movie, which was a bit sad. So, no, I was quite unhappy with that.

After leaving the theater, how did you feel? Did the movie leave you excited, sad, or something else?
I know that the books make this one look evil but I would definitely want the elder After leaving the theatres, all I wanted to do was run back in and see it again. The film really dove into the trio's personal lives. Very entertaining, to say the least. I'm excited to get it on DVD, and to see all the bonus features.

Is there anything else you would like to add?
Why, yes, I would like to add something! Watch The Very Potter Musical!!! I was forunate enough to watch it right when MuggleNet advertised it in the news feed. I saw it and laughed so hard, I was shaking. You will fall in love with Harry (Darren Criss) and laugh yourself horse at Draco (Lauren Lopez). If any of the cast from the musical is reading this, YOU GUYS ARE TOTALLY AWESOME! Lastly, keep reading the books, fans! I get inspired every single time.
