Anyone else going? I'm not revealing any spoilers for those who haven't read the book yet.

3. The movie adaptations have usually been wonderful
The only letdown was PRISONER OF AZKABAN, which seemed rather rushed and even corny at times.

4. For Ginny and I, it was always a tradition...
...to hit the bookstores at midnight to grab the latest Harry Potter book. Sometimes, if the lines seemed too long, we'd sneak on over to the supermarket next door which released the book at midnight as well (and sometimes a few minutes early).

This, however, will be my first midnight movie. Should be more fun than a bucket of grindylows.

5. Okay, check this out
I'm typing this in the movie theater where Deathly Hallows is showing - they've got WiFi and no problem with me surfing until the trailers get started. In addition, this cinema sells beer. Not butterbeer (which I also like), but honest-to-Godric Shiner Bock.

Harry Potter and beer. Yum.

10. I wish they had beer at our movies
but I know that I would have to get up and pee, and miss half the show. :(
