The challenge for July

comes from [info]greedyslayer:

Write about your anticipation and reactions to the movie version of Half-Blood Prince.



Oh yes, I know, I'm way behind with banners. But you will get them. The main sign ups on the [info]severusbigbang are over, I have a bit more adminning to do, and then I have a bit more free time for fun things like banner making.

For those of you who haven't seen it yet: sign ups for beta readers and cheerleaders remain open, a week of latecomer sign ups gives you another chance to sign up as an artist or writer.

    Well, you'll be waiting until August for this from me, since I'm only paying to see it once and I'm seeing it on Imax in 3D and because of the stupid Transformers crap....HP is not being released here on Imax until July 29th! So not only did I have to wait 9 more months, but now I have to wait two more weeks. :-(

    I'm not anticipating anything. After the way the previous movies messed with the plot and characters and knowing it was done again in this one, I don't care anymore. I'm guessing my husband will buy the DVD whenever it becomes available (because he is a junkie of badly plotted SF&F movies with cool effects) and I'll watch it with the family once or twice. There isn't even the anticipation of hints for future developments now that the 7th book has been out for 2 years.

    I'm afraid I'm with Oryx Leucoryx. After DH, I am simply not anticipating anything anymore - even though, from the pics I've seen and the reviews I've read, it seems they have done the Severus scenes reasonably well. But I didn't much like the book, even though, at that point, there was still a chance that Rowling could perform a reversal and pull off something wonderful. After DH, it's clear that she intended the weaknesses of HBP (and the previous volumes) and that she didn't have much of a story to tell, after all. At least, that's my opinion!

    So I will not be seeing this one in the theater - I don't think. Partly because I don't want to give another penny to Rowling, and partly because I definitely don't want to give money to Warner Brothers. I personally blame them, not Rowling, for all the heavy-handed lawsuits, and I really think the fans could bring them to their senses by boycotting.

    So that's what I'm doing. I know the library will get the disc and I will see it then. It'll be the first movie I haven't seen in the theater, but I just don't want to support this corporate entity any more.
