I agree with you, hun. I tried, but couldn't get into them. The movies are okay, but they are not on my top 10 list to watch over and over.
I think my problem with the whole HP craze is I really dislike JK Rowling. Even though she is done with the series (and has been for a while now) she keeps popping up in the news. "Dumbledore was gay!”; "I contemplated suicide!"
I really don't care! I would rather see more interviews with Terry, see him get more recognition here in the states, and see his stories brought to life on the big screen so I can share them with people (like my husband) who refuse to read unless the book in question contains lots of pictures.
