Let's talk about HP books and films.
There is some questions: - Which book/film was your favourite?
- Who is your favourite character?
|
Well, over past couple of years I've caught myself not being able to answer both questions right away. I think, as you grow older you start to appreciate every book, every movie and every character. I often revisit the Philosopher's Stone, because there's so much nostalgia in it. I also revisted the Goblet of Fire and the Order of Phoenix, and let me tell you those movies are amazing.
Especially the Order - I really think this is one of the most realistic books and movies in terms of depicting human cruelty, loneliness and depression. You really sympathise with Harry, you have fun with Fred and George and you really hate Umbridge. It annoyed me as a kid, because it made me feel so many uncomfortable (at the time) emotions that I didn't understand as a 10-12 y.o., but now, at the age of 19 I loved experiencing those emotions with the characters.
Regarding the characters: Merlin's Beard, Harry himself feels so underrated now. I mean, I rarely hear people say that Harry is their favourite character, and he is such a nicely crafted character. He is flawed, but that's the greatest part of him. I mean, we can all relate to this character, because, we are not perfect, we are only human, but it's okay, it will never prevent any of us from achieving great things. And Harry shows it to us.
I also feel like I will forever love the Weasley twins. They remind me of my classmates, whom I miss very much.
