So on Wednesday, I was invited by Liane and her family to see Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince at 10:15pm. I didn’t really enjoy the sixth book, but I wanted to see how the movie adaptation would turn out.
But, I went over to her house early to hang out. We rented Tales of Vesperia and spent all day playing it. @.@ Yuri is even more amazing in HD.
“Remember? Prepare to die, eggbear!”
One of the best lines in the game, said in his lovely falsetto voice, when mocking Karol XD. There are many other awesome things in that game, but I shall avoid posting them to avoid giving spoilage 8D.
So, after playing Tales of Vesperia all day (literally), we prepared to go wait in the extremely long line to go see the movie. It was really warm in line because they had us packed together like sardines ;o. We ended up with really good seats, though.
After two hours of waiting, there we are, sitting in our seats. The lights dim and the before-movie previews begin. Why? Oh why did they have to include the New Moon trailer?! It was scary >.<, but happy and elating when Edward said he was leaving Bella. *cackles maniacally*
Fast forward 15 minutes and the movie begins for real. It was quite strange…the whole movie was filled with light hearted jokes (not like the book at all) and then when it comes to Harry going with Dumbledore to get the Hocrux, it’s like someone flips a switch. It suddenly becomes angsty and they pile it on really thick; I left the movie disappointed. It seems like they cut out important scenes of the movie, made new events, and the ending seemed rushed to me.
Oh well, let’s hope Deathly Hallows part 1 and 2 will be better. Deathly Hallows…that was slightly disappointing, as a book, as well. The epilogue ruined the story for me. Albus Severus Potter? Blegh. Ginny and Harry? Yuck!
That’s it for now! This is a simple otaku signing off! *tries to be all news reporter-like*
