once a HP fan, always a HP fan~~



I have been a Harry Potter fan since I was in the fourth grade in primary school and until now I am still crazy about this series. I have done something crazy, such like reading the first volume for 16 times, the fourth volume for 6 times, copying down all the curses in a notebook, using dark green color pens, imaging every one of my friends are someone in the novel, getting a poster from the cinema when the movie was offline, buying tapes rather than CDs (when tapes are still quite popular more than nearly 10 years ago...) at that time ... I have pursued nearly every thing about HP, of course including the movie.

The movie is a great success, at least its box office, though the movie series will never be as good as the novel in a huge HP fan's heart. However, if we exclude the plot of the movie and simply view its technics and soundtrack, it is still marvelous! The first two movies have left the deepest impression on me. The first one: Harry Potter and the Philosopher's stone, the great composer John Williams created the famous and widely accepted OST for HP. In the second movie, the digital magic on creating the elf Dobby made the scene real and live and has become a milestone in my heart at that age. I have found some videos on Youtube to recall my sweet memories in HP.









The first one is the trailer of the first movie. The second one is the scene when Dobby is freed by Harry who has cheated Malfoy by giving Dobby his own sock.

However, I must say the sixth HP movie was terrible. The length limitation was a huge cause of the incoherency of the movie. Actually I think it's better to read books rather than watching movies after the fourth volume.

But Harry Potter has created a world for me. This is the real magic.
