Harry Potter part 2 screening

                         The last Installment of J.K. Rowling’s wonderful series has finally come to an end well at least the movies ended and the books have come to an end. Well, the point is, they are both done. I have a little bitter sweat sensation to this ending. The bitter is, I don’t think that we will see Daniel or Emma or even Rupert in American film. So I  am afraid that when I become a star in America I won't see them.  It is also like when you have to come from an extended sleepover. It's that almost wanting to cry but not wanting to embarrass yourself in front of your  friends feeling. The sweet part is the happiness that they finished something they started and they grew up to be wonderful adults. I am not old enough to have kids but I think that the sweet part of the series ending feels like seeing your child graduate college and live on their own and become successful people.

                       I have read all of the Harry Potters and enjoyed every bit of it. Even when I was mad when characters died,  I still  enjoyed the book. Now I have seen all the movies of Harry Potter as of yesterday yes yesterday I saw Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 2 yesterday. It was a Private screening that started at 6 o’clock and ended around 8. This private screening was held at Navy Pier's IMAX theatre and it was a fundraiser for Urban Prep Charter Academy. G-moms (my grandmother) took me. 

            The last movie in the production was awesome- it had every thing I expected plus more! I never thought they would show the epilogue or make Voldemort’s death look so cool. I didn't expect them to make Harry’s death scene cool! There was only one part in the movie that I disliked.  I disliked how they made Harry, Ginny, and Ron look old in the epilogue but made the (hotty mic hotty hotty) Heromine look the same, which I am somewhat fine with but still it made me mad because I think they either should have made everyone look old or everyone look young.

                       Now it is time for me to compare the movies to the books. 
Book 1 vs. movie 1: Sorcerer's Stone
          I have to say movie 1 for this one the first book was excellent but it didn’t have that much comedy or that much action which the first movie had.

Movie 2 vs. Book 2: Chamber of Secrets 
           I must say book 2 had the movie 2 beat. The book had more detail with comedy, action, and got deeper into he characters.

Book 3 vs. Movie 3: Prisoner of Azkaban 
          Absolutely has to go to the (drum roll) the 3^rd book. The book brought in new characters without forgetting the old ones it also had a lot of mystery with a sprinkle of new spells. (Patronus charm). Book 4 vs. Movie 4: Goblet of Fire
          My vote goes to movie by a little margin. They are almost equal--its just that after I read the 4th book when I saw the movie it brought the best graphics ever!  I mean, it made what I pictured in my head look like $#! &&.
Book 5 vs. Movie 5: Order of the Phoenix 
          The vote must go to a TIE because they both were evenly good in my opinion (to tell you the truth its mostly because the 4th movie put a picture of nearly everything in my head.)   
6^th book vs. the 6^th movie: Half Blood Prince 
    My vote for this one is going to the 6^th book in my opinion. They made the 6^th movie bull crap. It was my least favorite of all the movies. The 6^th movie didn’t have good scenes or good action. 

The first part of the seventh book vs. the first part of the seventh movie: The Deathly Hallows Part 1                 My vote goes to the first part of the seventh book over the movie.  It was close. It was difficult to choose.  The thing that put part 1 movie slightly behind was  Dobby’s over dramatic death scene. It was already epic and sad but the slowmo and Dobby’s last words tore me up because he was one of my 3 favorite characters. (Harry Dobby, Neville)

Now last but not least, the second part of the book v.s. part 2 movie: The Dealthy Hallows Part 2
            I place my vote for the movie part 2. It had comedy, action, and over the top acting! The second part of the book made me feel like Rowling was trying a new writing style, which is fine to do- but she tried it too hard.  It reminded me of Tolkien because it was just tooooooo wordy!!!

So that is my book to movie rating hope you enjoyed----- BUT I'm not done.

          When the movie ended, the boring as heck credits were rolling up the screen when suddenly something awesome happened! Matthew Lewis a.k.a. Neville came out and let a few people ask questions after the press. Only five people got to ask questions and out of all of them he said he liked me and he took time to answer my question. After the questions,  we had to leave the theatre but I just  had to talk to him in person and shake his hand! Instead of walking towards the exit I dodged people and walked downstairs toward him. I had to talk to him.  We had a talk and he seemed impressed with me but I am positive I was more impressed with him. We took a picture and I taped the whole thing. Video and picture will be on the blog as soon as possible.
