Harry's Imminent Death


I haven't read this article, but my answer is a resounding "I sure as hell hope so."

I am so sick of Harry Potter hype. In an attempt to distance myself from it I try to avoid all talk of Harry Potter---I never read anything about it, I never watch anything about it, and I've never even allowed my eyes to settle on an actual copy of one of the books, let alone picked one up. So naturally, I was drawn to such a headline as "Will Harry Die?" And I'll say it again. I sincerely hope so. I don't want to hear about another Harry Potter book for as long as I live.

(I am willing to admit however, that my hatred of Harry Potter could be at least partly attributed to that vampiric old man who plays him in the movies. I. don't. like. him.)

I haven't bothered to read any of the Potter books, so Im unsure as to why they've become so popular. I've watched a couple of the movies and the stories have proven to be relatively entertaining, albeit highly derivative.

Potter gets a big ol' shrug and a "meh" from me.

I can't believe you saw those movies.

Hahahaha. So I'm not the only one that thought he looked like some sort of devious pedophile dressing up as a child in order to get closer to them?

He looked like he was 20 in the first movie, he must look at least 30 in the latest.

I know. It is really creepy. Look at that picture of him. It's disturbing.

I was curious to see what the fuss was about. There's far worse stuff out there, to be sure.
