I liked Harrison Ford's performance as the salty, lone-wolf research professor. He performs the character as Han Solo, the research scientist, which was fine with me. But it didn't make up for all of the other illogical parts of the film. Most scientists don't keep their food and beverages near their lab chemicals.I liked Harrison Ford's performance as the salty, lone-wolf research professor.... more

Wow, this is one of the catchiest Harry Potter songs ive ever heard. This is sweet. It really puts me in the mood to fee Harry Potter tonight. Really good lyrics too, all about the public school system.I hope you guys enjoy and like it as much as I do.
"Hank's (apparently annual) Harry Potter Song! Thanks to Shmed (on guitar) and Dan (on Drums) and Monica (for reminding me it was time.) "
I hate this place,
I can barely keep the misery off my face,
Yeah there's one place I'd rather be,
Taking Transfiguration and arithmancy,
And hanging with my friends in the Owlery,
But instead I'm learning parts of speech,
And trying not to fall asleep,
And avoiding the only girl in school who might like me,
It's so grotesque,
When the guy sitting next to me drools all over his desk,
And I almost raise my hand to complain,
But then I realize I wanna be doin' the same,
So I put my head down on my desk as well,
And suddenly im learning a spell,
To make my teacher's head swell,
But then he wakes me up,
And I cant help but yell,
ENGORGIO!!
Chorus:
This isn't Hogwarts this is a concrete box,
And the pictures on the wall are never gonna talk,
And the teachers don't care that the kids don't try,
And the most magical thing we have is fluorescent lights,
And they don't put you in Hufflepuff if your not cool,
Instead they sort you in the parking lot after school,
And I think if I looked into the Mirror of Erised,
I'd be wearing wizard robes of gold and red,
I'm not sayin' I'm not proud to be a nerd,
But public school ain't no place for a wizard x2
Y'know whats gross,
When the lunch meat looks like three day old soggy toast,
But as I ate it anyway I overheard,
This guy I hardly know callin' me a nerd,
So I cast "Sectum Sempra" on him inside my mind,
I wish there were house elves makin' my food,
And everything was perfectly spiced,
And the only one being rude was the poltergeist,
And here's what's true,
I'd do pretty much anything to go to wizard school,
I'd even call Delores Umbridge my friend,
If it meant I'd never have to go to gym again,
But I look around at all of this crap that's part of my life,
No ghost stalkin' the halls,
Or hangin' in the bathroom stalls,
And the stairs don't move,
cause there's no stairs at all.
Chorus:
This isn't Hogwarts this is a concrete box,
And the pictures on the wall are never gonna talk,
And the teachers don't care that the kids don't try,
And the most magical thing we have is fluorescent lights,
And they don't put you in Hufflepuff if your not cool,
Instead they sort you in the parking lot after school,
And I think if I looked into the Mirror of Erised,
I'd be wearing wizard robes of gold and red,
I'm not sayin' I'm not proud to be a nerd,
But public school ain't no place for a wizard x2
(whoof had to type that all cause the guy didnt put the lyrics anywhere but in the video...*sigh*)Wow, this is one of the catchiest Harry Potter songs ive ever heard. This is sweet. It... more

I just got home from the midnight premier of Harry Potter and the Half Blood prince. Here's what I thought:
Tom Felton, Daniel Radcliffe, Emma Watson, hell, even Rupert Grint all made this movie less than desirable. The book made me cry like a baby. Even after a hefty dose of Bacardi 151, recently getting disowned by my birth mom, and lying in a drunken stupor for days, this movie did nothing. Nothing.
Don't get me wrong, the special effects were intriguing, the magic very eye popping, but somehow, this movie sucked. I blame it on bad acting and here's why.
Michael Gambon was horrible. Listless, lifeless, and utterly awkward, he once again demonstrates how Dumbledore shouldn't be.
Tom Felton looked quite at home most of the movie. All he had to do was look forlorn and somehow hiding his emotions. Until the climax that is. Then he looks like a 14 year old pulling a tape worm out of his ass. Worst. Crying. Ever.
The underlying chemistry between Emma Watson and Rupert Grint was... surprisingly quite out in the open. I felt that David Yates downplayed their sexual tension, in favor of creating the ultimate cliffhanging downfall.
I could go on, but here is the bottom line:
Fans will want this series to end spectacularly. Half Blood Prince was an absolute letdown, acting, directing, and arguably in special effects. This movie left so much potential unfilled, (on purpose) that fans will have no choice but to desperately hope the next movie is better.
The upside:
Hero Tiffin and Jim Broadbent were the saving grace of this movie. Although Broadbent appeared a little more absent minded than was perhaps advisable, he delivered an absolutely convincing performance, and won my intrigue.
The nephew of Ralph Fienes, Hero Tiffin is scary. He captured my attention in the 'memory scenes' better than all the other actors put together. His persona is disturbing, brilliant, and well executed, just as Rowling portrays Tom Riddle.
All in all, this movie was a cliffhanger. I hate cliffhangers, but apart from that, this movie was alright.
85 percent satisfied.I just got home from the midnight premier of Harry Potter and the Half Blood prince.... more
