Originally posted by Yahoo News Book 7 has offically been titled: Harry Potter and the Deathly Hollows. But if you want to find out for yourself, visit Rowling's U.S. publisher, Scholastic, Inc., released a brief statement Thursday announcing the name of the world's most anticipated children's book, the finale to her phenomenally popular fantasy series. No publication date or other details were offered. Rowling is still working on the book, she wrote on her Web site in an entry posted early Thursday. "I'm now writing scenes that have been planned, in some cases, for a dozen years or even more," she wrote. "I don't think anyone who has not been in a similar situation can possibly know how this feels: I am alternately elated and overwrought. I both want, and don't want, to finish this book (don't worry, I will.)" Meanwhile, she set up a little game for her Potter fans. If you go to her home page, click on the eraser and you will be taken to a room — you'll see a window, a door and a mirror. In the mirror, you'll see a hallway. Click on the farthest doorknob and look for the Christmas tree. They click on the center of the door next to the mirror and a reef appears. Then click on the top of the mirror and you'll see a garland. Look for a cobweb next to the door. Click on it, and it will disappear. Now, look at the chimes in the window. Click on the second chime to the right, and hold it down. The chime will turn into the key, which opens the door. Click on the wrapped gift behind the door, then click on it again and figure out the title yourself by playing a game of hangman. Or you can just take Scholastic's word for it. Yes, yes I know Harry Potter is a kids book, but I started the series in 3rd grade and to this day its one of the few books that really has grabbed and held my attention (I know sad, but its partly due to the ADD). I hope this book ties up some of the loose ends that have been around for years. |

....My future prediction for the new book: H.P. is the victim of a hit/run flying car scenario, therefor completing the prophecy made by the drunk gypsy. That bad guy, H.P's arch rival, like taked over the world, instigating armageddon, where scientist are forced to create giant robots to combat the onslaught of magic casting n00bs (robots pwn wizards). Suddenly the robots go beserk, and like, start killing pretty little bunny rabbits. With no other the choice, we decide to hell with our lives like emos, and fire nukes at each other, in turn, causing a nuclear winter, where like, elves and mutant cockroaches fight each other for dominance with alien lazer technology.....

I read a few chapters and have seen the movies, just nothing overly exciting, and the intended audience does seem to target younger readers, although we as well know everyone and their mom reads them.
As for the movies themsevles, kinda the same as teh above, decent acting, nice visuals, but just feels watered down, cutsey fantasy fare. ------------- |
