Day 195: Potter

Written around 12 AM 7-14/15:

Good thing I'm not at a midnight showing of Harry Potter's Last Stand. It is a but midnight and my energy is flagging hard. And yet here I sit in the living room, part deux-ing the review of previous Harry Potter films with Brie.

Watching the films with someone who doesn't remember them and had never read the books makes for a whole 'nother breed of entertainment. Prisoner of Azkaban featured some exclamations like "Don't let the bird die!" about Buckbeak and "Why did he do that...the only thing keeping him safe..." in reference to Harry expelliarmus-ing Snape when he still wasn't sure where Lupin and Sirius' loyalties lay.

I was able to explain book only things like who Padfood, Moony, Wormtail, and Prongs were. She seems to find those bits interesting. Now on to Goblet of Fire which I've must have seen...well, I've seen it a great many more times than the other films. Really, more than watching the movies, I am enjoying watching the special features on the DVDs.
