HARRY POTTER AND THE ORDER OF THE PHOENIX : THE MOVIE REVIEW
13th july 2007. the opening of a mega-packed series of events for a Harry Potter fan. the release of a greatly anticipated movie:HARRY POTTER AND THE ORDER OF THE PHOENIX! although i did not get to watch it on its release date, i did manage to watch it within the coming week.
my response:AWESOME!!!
although there are a few faults here and there, one can definately say that this movie is a difinate "wow".
firstly, the dementor attack scene was really a thriller. with all the sound effects surrounding me and the sudden appearance of the hood of the dementor, it really got me by surprise. and after that, the next scene after the next, the scene where harry will escape from the dursleys', was my second favourite scene in the movie. the beautiful music of the movie alongwith the breathtaking scenes of the river thames was indescribable. i loved it.
then, harry enters number 12, grimmauld place. truly an creative way was the appearance of it:in my imagination, i imagined it swell up like a balloon, but i liked what i saw anyway. after that, the "not needed" scene where harry meets kreacher up the stairs. it was said that director david yates thought of cutting the scene, but after a talk with author j.k. rowling, he decided to leave it as it is as it would help viewers get a welcome view of the house-elf, which is, in fact, playing a rather important role in harry potter and the deathly hallows. so there he was.
the set of the number 12's kitchen was beautiful. it almost had everything made there in detail. i
n case you guys do not know what i am talking about, the kitchen is the place where the order has meetings and where the family eats.
and soon, harry is on the way to hogwarts. in the carraige pulled by thestrals, he meets luna lovegood, a fourth-year ravenclaw, who will fight alongside him against the death eaters.and then, his dull school life with the new evil teacher professor umbridge, his old hooked nosed teacher severus snape, distinguishedly marked with the absence of the care of magical teacher and harry's best friend, hagrid.
little miss evil wasn't making things fun at all. umbridge was banning the use of magic in DADA classes and taking over the school. no fun at all. thus, the students formed a rebellion, named Dumbledore's Army, patronize harry as a teacher to teach them the defence against the dark arts. definately a scene anybody will like. i did, anyway.and then, the meeting with grawp, hagrid's brother, when hagrid returns. i like this part, when umbridge ge
t carried away by grawp, screaming her head off. also, i like harry's response to umbridge:
p.u. :harry, ask them to let go off me! i mean them no harm! (or something)
h.p. :sorry professor. i must not tell lies.
after this, the flight to the ministry on thestrals, and the entrance to the department of mysteries. i also like the interesting idea of the door leading to different rooms whenever you open it. and the fight against the death eaters. really, really, really LOVED it!
and finally, t
he grand finale:the duel between the two greatest wizards in the world:Lord Voldemort and Professor Albus Percifel Wudfric Brian Dumbledore (what a mouthful!). this, alas, is my most favourite scene in the movie. the flying of the broken glass, the huge fiery snake thingy by Voldemort, the drownage of him in water by Dumbledore, and the lava-ish wand connecting thing. wow.
that's all i can say at the moment, but i'll be back soon, giving the review of the 7th book and the cons of the movie. anyway...bye!

HARRY POTTER AND THE ORDER OF THE PHOENIX - CHAPTERS 1 - 6
CHAPTERS 1- 6
chapter 1 : dudley demented
chapter 2 : a peck of owls
chapter 3 : the advance guard
chapter 4 : number twelve, grimmauld place
chapter 5 : the order of the pkoenix
chapter 6 : the noble and most ancient house of black
what the hell i'm talking about? well as i've said in my previous post, i will be explaining about the 5th installment of the harry potter series: harry potter and the order of the phoenix. the stuff i've written above are the titles of the first six chapters of the book.
in the first three chapters, it is about harry potter being stuck in the dursleys' for a month in the summer, being angry to be shut away from the wizarding world, and being confused why there has not been a single report on deaths, as harry suspect would happen as lord voldemort is alove once again. one unluckly day, harry potter and his cousin dudley got cornered in an alleyway by a pair of dementors. thus, to repel the dementors, harry produced a potranus to shake them off. well, the potranus got hm landed in a hearing with the ministry.
thus, as told in the advanced guard, a group of people from the order came to harry to fetch him and bring him away to number twelve, grimmauld place, which is the headquaters for the order of the phoenix. the order of the phoenix is an organization which opposes voldemort's missions and doings. it is made up of witches and wizards from the ministry, overseas, and those in league with dumbledore. incidentaly, the house's current owner is harry's godfather, sirius black. his house's owners date back all the way to the middle ages.
amazingly, just these six chapters take up about 130 pages of the book!

THE ORDER OF THE PHOENIX
ok, we only have a breif idea on what the order of the phoenix movie will bring us, but let me tell you what you can find in the book.a lot.
from the dementors to the order of the phoenix, from dobby to kreacher, grawp, centuars, umbridge, the department of mysteries, quidditch, hogwarts, the weasley twins' escape, the break out of the death eaters, most importantly, harry potter himself; harry potter and the order of phoenix brings out the most suspense and adventure i have ever seen in any previous harry potter books.
ok, starting from now, i shall be going through different chapters of this book in different posts. this means that i will have to go through all thirty-eight chapters of the book! but, i will summarise a group of chapters at once...well, i'd better start doing it now!

DUMBLEDORE'S ARMY
the harry potter movie will come out by 17th july. but what do fans, like me, actually look forward to catch in the movie? harry's first kiss? the weasley twins' fabulous escape from the new enemy of the day: dolores umbridge? or is it the scene in which sirius black, harry's godfather, will die?
well trust me, most of us fans are actually looking forward to the DA : Dumbledore's Army.
what is it? it is actually an organisation, illegelly founded by harry potter, to learn useful defensive spells and counter-attacks as their dumb defence against the dark arts teacher, dolores umbridge, is not teaching them just that.what spells? you say. well, they are:
stupefy - to stun your opponent
petrificulus totalus - to cause a full body-bind on your opponent
expelliarmus - to disarm your opponent
wingardium leviosa- to levitate your opponent for some kind of reason (woohoo!!!)
expecto patronum - to repel happiness sucking creatures : dementors
ridikulus - to turn boggarts into something funny
protego - to repel a spell or jinx
levicorpus - a cool non-verbal spell to hang your opponent by his ankles(noooo!)
right - now we know the spells, who the heck are in it? well, from the picture above i can say that: harry potter, hermione granger, ronald, fred, george and ginny weasleys, cho chang, neville longbottom, parvati and padma patil, luna lovegood,lee gordon, colin creevy and one more guy whom i don't recognise.
where is it held? a room not known, and is unplottable : the Room of Requirement. why is it called that? if a person would enter the room, the intrerior of the room would change to suit a person's needs.
well drop a comment, and visit this new website : www.joindumbledoresarmy.com. bye!

D' LONG AWAITED COVERS...
well, as we know, the long awaited book, HARRY POTTER AND THE DEATHLY HALLOWS, will be released on 21st july 2007.
around the world, fans (like me) are eagerly waiting in anticipation for it to be released. the covers for the bookss had not been known until about a few weeks ago.
in the adult cover (left,top), it shows salazar slytherin's locket which harry potter and proffesor dumbledore had set out to find in HARRY POTTER AND THE HALF-BLOOD PRINCE. unfortunately, it was a fake, which almost caused dumbledore his life. i kinda like the design of the locket and how the cameraman shot the picture.

on the children's cover (left,bottom), it is a drawing of the three friends, sort of thrown into of 
a tunnel along with some kind of creatures and some treasure. ron's face looks the wierdest...lol..
well, i have already ordered the adult's cover despite being a teenager, and am saving up to get this freakin' long awaited book. don't worry people, i will be the first in the line.
P.S. it is being released on my best friend's birthday!

TROUBLE ON BOARD...
there was trouble on board the hogwarts express a few days ago, on 22nd march 2007. a group of young vandals, well, vandalised the very magnificent piece of artwork. it was estimated that it cost about 50 000 pounds worth of damage. that's a lot of money. sadly, this was the second time the train had been vandalised.from veritaserum.com, a britain local newspaper reported that:
The youngsters broke into the West Coast Railway depot at the former Steamtown site in Carnforth and used emergency hammers from train carriages to smash toughened glass on the train.
The gang of six youngsters was spotted by nearby residents as they made off.
Patricia Marshall, managing director of West Coast Railway, said: "It will take at least a month to repair, because so much damage was caused."

god, it is really bad for such a thing to happen. hope it will get better soon... like as though it lives, but i love it...what a set...
HEAVE A SIGH OF RELIEF FOLKS...
ladies and gentlemen, you can heave a sigh of relief...
over the past few months, there were rumours and i think i even saw an interview of some shocking accusations.
in an interview, daniel racliffe, currently acting as the harry potter movies' leading actor, harry potter himself, said that he was not planning in quitting the harry potter movie career. neither was rupert grint, who acted as ron weasley.
but emma watson, currently acting as hermione granger, was.
shocking as it is, it is not true.
www.veritaserm.com reported that, in fact, emma watson is NOT leaving the harry potter movies as rumoured, but, in fact, she IS still staying for the 6th and 7th harry potter movies : harry potter and the half-blood prince, and, harry potter and the deathly hallows.
so people, this waacky genius is still staying after all...thank god...
