I read the first Harry Potter book in '98, just when The Chamber of Secrets came out and it had a relatively small section in the bookstore. I recall the series becoming incredibly popular around 2000 when The Goblet of Fire came out and the movie was announced.

Say something that's valid and hasn't already been said. Your argument is getting old. Yes yes emostreet, because presumably I thought you would been able to relate to bella in all those extraordinary tales you tell. I'm taken aback that you can't. Please construct valid points instead of petty arguments. It's like the blind leading the ****ing blind in here.

Harry Potter, I hate Twilight with a passion. All three main characters made me want punch them. They were unlikable, and Meyer never developed them.

Is anyone else pumped about the next movie? I am! The book was insane.

I also heard J.K. Rowling has not ruled out more Harry Potter books, yussss!

Where did you see this? My impression was that it was a set number of books. I was pretty sad after finishing the series. Make that devastated.

Any word on another Matrix trilogy, or another Mad Max? Because that would be icing on the cake.

I loved that - and the video response this notorious fan-girl of Twilight made in response to him [I don't remember her name, the account, or details, but I remember 'who is he? What the hell has he written anyway?' being choice words]

So yeah...I'm Team HP.

I can scarcely contain my enthusiasm about the next movie; I don't think the movies are works of cinematic brilliance by any means, but going to the midnight showing of each movie, costumed, is a tradition for me. I just bought five tix for the midnight showing today!

And as for the possibility of more books - where did you hear that? I'd love to read more of the books, and was pretty damn depressed when I finished book 7 on the day it came out.

^I read about it too. She said that she might write an 8th, 9th and 10th book. It was in an interview last month. I still don't know what to think about it though.

Don't want the series to be ruined by redundancy.

Meyer intentionally left Bella as a blank slate so that young girls could more easily insert themselves into her role.

I think I would hate for this to happen. Films and novels that are written outside of the original plan are rarely any good.
