Harry Potter is boss

I love all things Harry Potter.

Yes, I am 31. Don't care. And not ashamed to say it. I luff Harry.

And I'm sorry Twilight fans. Stephenie Meyer, Edward/Bella/Jacob, and Robert Pattinson - you and your fictional world are interesting and entertaining. But you simply cannot hold a candle to J.K. Rowling and her amazing epic Potter universe. It is superior in every way.

The sixth Potter movie was supposed to come out last November. I was so excited! And then we heard the studio was going to delay the release until July 2009. Seriously? And why did they decide to do that? Harry Potter movies make more money in the summer. So they went and royally ticked off all the HP fans who now had to wait eight more months to see the next installment. L-A-M-E.

Anywho, as it's getting closer to the release, some images from the film have been popping up on the internet. I thought I'd set up a fun game for other Potter fans like myself. The first person to name the main characters in each picture AND what scene it is...I will mail you $5. Remember this is Book 6 "The Half-Blood Prince". Good luck!

Ladies and gentlemen, we have a WINNER! Great job, Haley. I am very impressed. You win 5 bucks.

Countdown to the movie: 2 months and 18 days

P.S. Amy, your Robin Hood reference made me think of one of my favorite lines from the Sheriff of Nottingham: "Cancel the kitchen scraps for lepers and orphans. No more merciful beheadings. And call off Christmas!!" (Alan Rickman is the MAN.)

YES!

Also, I LOVE that part of Robin Hood. Rickman said they had to reshoot that scene a ton of times because he kept cracking up.
