Harry Potter Challenge – Day 9: Least fave male character

Wormtail/Peter Pettigrew

Probably a very obvious and popular choice for this one! We aren’t supposed to like him at all, after what he done to Harry’s parents and Sirius Black. But he has to be my least favorite character in the whole series. Not one good thing can be said about him at all. Don’t forget that he was Ron’s pet rat Scabbers for a while as well, which just makes him even worse.

Pottermore

Last week a website with the title Pottermore appeared with coming soon across it and J.K. Rowling’s signature. Leading up to an announcement which you can follow the countdown here. Nobody seems sure at all what the announcement is going to be about, but early talk has stopped rumours of a new book and stated that is not what it is all about. I guess we can still hope a little bit that we are going to get another book.

You can also follow on Twitter the account https://twitter.com/#!/pottermore which has made just two tweets and has over 72,200 followers! It really does just show the power of the internet and social network sites with how fast people heard about ‘Pottermore’ only 3 days and 2 hours to find out what its all about!

Harry Potter Challenge – Day 8: What do you think would be your fave lesson

Transfiguration

Mainly because I think it would be cool to turn an object into something different. Plus Professor McGonagall whilst strict does seem very cool at the same time. Being Griffindor’s head of house is a big pull towards that lesson too.

Harry Potter Challenge – Day 7: Fave female character and why

Without a doubt my favorite female character is Hermione Granger. She grows so much from the very start of it all until the end. Her intelligence helps out Harry and Ron a lot and they would not have got anywhere without her help. Always coming up with the best ideas and so likable.

Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part 2 (2011) Trailer 2

After the utter excitement of seeing the first trailer on the big screen for the first time yesterday (it’s attached to ‘Green Lantern’). A second trailer for the most anticipated film of the year has been released, it is another brilliant trailer! Cranking up the anticipation to the release in a months time!

 

Harry Potter Challenge – Day 6: What house would you want to be in

If you got to choose which Hogwart’s house you were in between, Griffindor, Slytherin, Hufflepuff and Ravenclaw. That is an easy choice and just has to be Griffindor. The house which values courage, bravery, loyalty, nerve and chivalry. Its mascot is the lion, and its colours are scarlet and gold.

Harry Potter Challenge – Day 5: Fave male character and why

My favorite male character has to be Albus Brian Wulfric Percival Dumbledore. He is just such a fantastic character with so much depth and so many levels. It is so easy to love him, particularly in the books. I feel in the films he doesn’t get as much time as he deserved from reading the books. Even when we start to doubt him the Deathly Hallows, we should know better than to doubt a great wizard like Dumbeldore.

Harry Potter Challenge- Day 4: Least fave female character and why

My least favorite female character has to be Dolores Umbridge. Throughout ‘Order of the Phoenix’ in both the book and film she is just so annoying that it quite unreal. Although well done to filmmakers for managing to get the character from the page to the screen and keep her characteristics so well.

Harry Potter Challenge – Day 3: Is there any of the films adaptations that have made you angry because they’ve ignored important parts of the book

The two main parts which I felt were very important in the books yet over looked in the films were when Ron and Hermione become prefects and Harry did not. This allowed us to see where some of the anger came between them, with them having to do the prefect duties and leaving Harry alone (especially on the train to school).

The other has to be when Percy falls out with his family and no longer speaks to them, this was massive in the books. Yet nothing in the films. I thought it was important, due to how close the Weasley family are. Which goes across quite a few of the books, and he just isn’t really mentioned at all in the films. I am sure they could have at least had a few references in the films without a massive increase to the running time.
