One word: Malfoy.
Okay, actually, I'm lying. I'm going to say soooo much more about it, this is going to be five pages of fangirling. Okay maybe ten.
Spoilers, but it's not like you haven't read the books. And if you haven't, Jesus, seriously? They're not the best books ever (definitely), but...it's Harry Potter.
Anyways, I was really looking forward to this movie mostly because the trailer showed what looked to be some pretty awesome visual effects. And they were awesome! The best part, I thought, was the first memory sequence where the floaty ghosty jellyfish memory things floated down into buildings. Creativity plus one. (That scene is actually in the trailers, if you've yet to see the movie.)
....and while this series is far from my favorite, Malfoy is up there in the list for my favorite broken "villain" characters. In quotes because it's Malfoy and he is pretty darn cowardly about a lot of things--kudos to him for not killing Dumbledore, though, I guess. And for being well-developed, unlike some other characters.
I guess I just appreciate a good foil.
And, um. Actually, at the moment, that's all I have to say. I'm still getting over the whole OMGWTFBBQ effects that movies like that (i.e., ones with action (albeit magic throwing) and lots of cool visuals) tend to have on me, so maybe I'll post more on it later. Anyone maybe wanna go and see it again with me? Please? I don't want to hear my dad tear up at Dumbledore dying again.
Off to draw some fanart, I suppose. And by draw fanart I mean sit in front of my drawing board and rip up half-done drawings. One day I'll cruxio the hell out of you, perfectionism. (That kind of felt geeky even for me.)
P.S. I have not been able to stop listening to these songs. First link is absolutely beautiful, plus, Dumbledore? I think so. Mostly because of the over the edge thing. -sob- (Also, the Star Wars video for it is the only video I can find that's not live. It's not that I like Anakin or anything.)

(Like I said, things are still very up in the air, so it's possible that my mom will stay here and my dad will move, we'll all move, my dad will decide to stay here and so will my mom..)
