Because it's gone from a book that kids used their imagination to create worlds to, to a movie where fat kids eat popcorn and laugh whilst someone else tells them what to imagine from now on when they read it.

Rubbish.

I would write more but it's 5:30am and I want to slseep now, been playing Castle Wolfenstein since 10pm and want sleep.

Good night you dirty sanchez

And I think I speak for thousands of tormented kids the world over who are unable to rampage with senseless anger and a big whacking stick:

Just because someone has glasses, doesn't mean they look like Harry Potter and doesn't mean they won't try to drive a broomstick up yer kibbutz if you call them that.
Or say "Hey, you look like Potter!"

NO. I am 28 whilst Potter is a relatively new idea, so I was here first.
Y'hear me Rowling? I was here 1st and you stole my face for the book.
Give it back dammit, I am not a little sorceror.
Harry Potter looks like me, not the other way round.

In the wise words of Ol' Dirty B***tard "Gimme my money"

If if ever see the Lord of the rings movie, without having read the book first, I will never forgive myself. This is why I intend to read it over the easter break.

War and peace will have to wait till the summer break.

what i find amusing is that in america it is "Harry Potter and The Sorcerer's Stone. For the simple reason that Americans would not Know what a Philosopher is.

I hate the massive amount of crappy harry potter merchandise that has been made.

Don't know what you're going on about when you say "Smash it wiv stick", (sounds more childish than some of your excises for Nintendo being a kiddies company), however Harry Potter can't be that bad if it's become so successful can it?

Well, the GameCube proved to be more popular in America, but still, the fact that it's done very well, if not better, than Pokémon, means it must have loads of fans (or brainwashed people if you prefer) otherwise it would be Harry Potty!

Harry Potter is bad. I mean, bad... crap... rubbish... *bad*!

Kids are actually asking where they can apply to a witchcraft school, and that isn't funny. All that witchcraft stuff is really mucked up, and it can work... I don't believe it's right, but demonic powers can and do exist... it's a shame...

They want power, and they're looking in completely the wrong place...

Damn Dirty Harry Potter...?

Indeed.

The Harry Potter stories were very readable for adults as we have our own perception whilst the movie was definatly a kids film i loved reading the books the film was embarassing, also they cut out the Ron Malfoid fight.... GRRRRRRRR!

The day that scum like you understand Lord of the Rings, and the humour of Discworld - will be a sad day WW. Harry Potter is not childish. Scum film and it's scum publicity. Scum.

NHP. Standing for No Harry Potter. I never liked the books and I admit that the movie looks impressive but I think it's too childish and everyone should read Lord of the rings and the discworld novels as they get older. And I'm only 13.
