Harry Potter

I know there are a few fellow Harry Potter obsessives on this forum. Harry Potter is a subject that gives me a lot of joy and can help me when I'm struggling.

I just wondered if anyone was up for chatting some Harry Potter - favourite characters, favourite scenes, differences between books and films etc?

Please no JK debates though. Just light hearted discussion of the content of the books/films themselves.

  • My favourite Harry Potter scene is the rise of Voldemort in the goblet of fire I mean wow it makes me cringe and I’m on the edge of my seat. My favourite film is the half blood prince because it’s so dark and it makes you hate snape. In the deathly hallows part 2 I soon love snape again as he was the good guy all along.

  • I struggle to pick one scene, I really do. But I think my absolute favourite is when they're putting up the defences around the castle. There's something so powerful about it. Closely followed by Dobby nearly dropping the chandelier on Bellatrix. 

    My favourite film is Philosophers Stone for nostalgic reasons. Second best is Deathly Hallows part 1.

    I prefer the book Half Blood Prince as it gives you a lot more of the lessons Dumbledore gives Harry and the memories linked to Voldemort's past. So many things suddenly make sense after that book but a lot of it is missed out in the film.
