The books themselves and the world built within them is great, and the Rowling stated plot advancements are fine.

I did not care for the movies much when my girlfriend at the time dragged me to the theater to see them, but I've changed my mind since then. I recently rewatched the entire series and enjoyed it a lot more when I paid more attention. Haven't read the books yet.

Meh. Never read the books, but the movies were okay. I like that it got kids to read back when I was young but most of those kids have turned into fucking weirdos now so it's a trade off.

FurryPhilosifer posted...They're good books. I mean, I'd say that argues in his favor. In the original books, Nagini was just a big-ass venomous snake that Voldemort had as a pet.

I love the original 7 books. Completely ignored the series for years before finally giving book 1 a try. Went through it in about 2-3 days, and immediately bought the rest.

They're entertaining, and I get people loving them, but I don't get the people who think they're brilliant. They're not.
I think I'm in the minority here when I say having Harry and Hermione not end up together was a good choice. Shit doesn't always end up going how you think it will - I like that she went with it.

ah i'm a total dingus, i forgot to say my favorite books were always 1 and 3 then 6 (i originally read them before 4 came out and lost interest before 5 did)
i remember the goblet film having so much different with it but i didn't really care because i had so much fun with it. iirc 6 had lots of changes too but i wasn't as keen on that one. i think the deathly hallows films were all right --- ginger ale is lit http://www.last.fm/user/pinkfloydrulez ...

Loved the books. The movies were...eh, there were things they did I think were stupid, but I didn't actually have major problems with them until GOF. From there, IMO they went decidedly downhill, and there's so much wrong with HBP and DH that I almost can't enjoy then anymore.
