The Great Big Harry Potter Squee Bonanza

This is it, my friends. The end is near. In a fortnight, it will all be over.

Basically, my Harry Potter Hysteria is reaching unchartable levels of nostalgia and squee, so I thought I would do the decent thing and encourage my fellow fanatics to engage in a wise and nuanced exchange of ideas (and SQUEE) about this monumentous literary occasion (I told you I was getting excited. This isn't healthy).

Basically... I want theories, I want memories, I want fic and video recs, I want favourite moments, favourite characters, thoughts on the films and any other jazz that might apply.

Please, guys. If I don't have an outlet for my excitement my head will explode and I'll die. Do you want that on your collective conscience, flisties? DO YOU?

Yours in pathetc desperation (and SQUEE),
Sophie

Apparently he does well in the sort of "aftermath" of Sirius's death. We shall see.

DanRad is quite a silly person. I was watching the interview with the trio on the PoA DVD last night and he was reminiscing about the towel lady incident. I remember when that happened and was all over Mugglenet. Good times. And Emma was being annoying as ever and doing her annoying laugh and flailing all over the place. Poor Rupert was just trying to stay as small as possible in his seat and as quiet as possible to avoid being killed by Emma.

I read an interesting remark (which I guess makes sense) that because the coloring of the whole Yule Ball scene, if she was dressed in periwinkle, she wouldn't stand out. But you're right, the cut of the dress... UGH. It made her look dumpy! Isn't this supposed to be an ugly duckling sort of moment? All I see is a fugly dress on a bizarrely shaped girl.

I am officially obsessed with this trailer. I just keep watching it over and over. And how badass does Tonks look in this picture?

SO BADASS IT HURTS. And how have I not seen that trailer before? There's twins! On brooms! With fireworks! And Ron doing a ROCK ON fist! And Emma overemphasising all the lines she has in the trailer. And Thestrals! And EXCITED NOW OKAY.

I always feel bad for Rupert in trio interviews. I think he might actually *be* Ron a little bit. Also have you seen the picture of him at the LA premiere wearing a HP tshirt under his jacket? I &hearts him.

Also, would you be willing to beta a little ficlet I wrote because my head was about to explode? Don't feel you have to, it's just you can do grammar. And you live far away so I wouldn't have to look you in the eye. And stuff.

Why certainly! Send away. :)

*hugs Rupert*

Right, I've sent it to the email listed on your profile, if that's okay. *is nervous*

In other news, IMAX tickets are booked! Woop woop!

That's fine. I'll get back to you via email.

Also, to entertain you (if you haven't already seen it): Cedric Diggory is Very Very Gay: an exercise in deductive logic.

That is one of the best things ever. I'd seen it before the vital copy-edits were implemented, because one of my flist loves it so much she links to it on her profile... Oh, Cedric. And Cedric's blusher.

You're seeing it tonight! I am unimaginably jealous!
