My wife has read books one thru six, book seven arrived today via an online order I placed a week ago. $17.95 and free shipping. We got 1-6 in a box set for my son. I've never read any of them. Seen all the movies though.
I can see the progression in the movies from light and fun (children's level) to dark and foreboding (teen and adult). So obviously it is age appropriate for those who grew up watching the movies or reading the books.
I did miss the details that normally appeared in the background of the other movies. And I missed the traditional Quidditch (sp?) scene. Overall, I liked GOF better than this one. But it was worth the ticket price.
I heard that this was to be the last movie? Anyone know if that is true?
My son's favorite is Goblet of Fire. There's no Quidditch at all in Book 7, unfortunately. But we've watched them go from eating Bertie Botts' Beans and chocolate frogs to fighting the forces of evil. While we were watching Order of the Phoenix last week, I leaned over to my son and said "it's so dark. there's almost no color in it"...and he said "that's because the dark times have returned". (The he said "shhhhhhhhhhhhh!"... lol).
