Listen, I know it's not ok for me to blog only about Harry Potter, but I can't help it. I saw the movie again tonight and I want to talk about it a little more. So far of the three times I've seen it the first was the best, the second was good, and the third was almost as good as the first.
Completely unrelated sidenote: is that comma I used before "and the third" what is known as the Oxford comma and according to the Oxford style bible or whatever the heck it is isn't even supposed to be used anymore? I'm not a grammar/usage person so I don't really know.
Back to Harry Potter. Most of this is about Horcruxes but I do want to say to unrelated things. One is that Cho Chang finally learned how not to be such an obnoxious uptalker (in the other movies EVERY sentence she said sounded like a question). Also, I'm in love with the tiny Slytherin boy in the great hall scene.
Now, about horcruxes. I just want the destruction of all of them to be more dramatic like the locket. Did I say this already? I think maybe I did so I guess I'll shut up. It just seemed like they were all easy apart from the locket. I read or heard this next thing somewhere and would love to hear your thoughts. Basilisk fangs/venom can destroy horcruxes. Why, then, did Harry not get destroyed in the chamber when he was bitten? Ok, sorry. I'm way too into this. Tell me to stop.
Oh by the way if you have a Muvico theater near you go to the 21 and up movie. Leather chairs, food delivered to your seat, super comfortable and amazing. Also, you should get some amazing family members like mine (I'm talking Mom and Laurel taking me on a Harry Potter date tonight). Also, inappropriate confession (second of the week, yes?) why does Harry look best in the inappropriate fan art of him and Draco together? I don't like the art because it's weird and that's so not what happened or would happen but Harry looks freaking great (see the pictures Conan showed Tom Felton when he was on the show the other day if you want to know what I'm talking about. I'm not putting it here).
Because I don't have any good pictures to put here because I'm a bad blogger, please go here and enjoy all these moment appropriate gifs. As Stefanie said, "Somebody on the internet totally gets me."
Note: I need to make clear that Sarah linked me originally to that site with all the gifs. Props to her for always finding great Harry Potter things and making me consider joining Pinterest because all her Harry Potter pins make me cry and I definitely can't have another internet thing to do and obsess over and even the titles of Brittany's boards that she mentioned in her blog make me want to go there. (Oh my gosh most disjointed run-on sentence ever).

Yes, the comma before the "and" in a list is known as the Oxford Comma. I am not a fan in most cases, but it's not unacceptable to use and no amount of people telling you not to use it is going to change anything. (I have taken grammar and usage classes)
Also I love reading about your thoughts on Harry Potter. Because some of them are same same as mine.
Regarding why the Harry horcrux didn't die when he was bitten by the Basilisk, I think it's because Faux came and healed him.
Also, those gifs are literally the best thing that has ever happened to me. And you should totes get a Pinterest account :)
