Hey,
I am completely boycotting all the merchandizing. I will read the
books, and ONLY the books. I won't watch even one second of the
movie, and i won't look at billboards and other ads. I am one of
those die-hard fans who thinks that making a movie out of a book like
this is just the worst thing you could do. Children growing up a few
years from now will not have thier own image of Harry, but rather an
image that the media has installed in their brains. I don't think
that's fair. To children born after the movie comes out, there will
never even have BEEN an original Harry Potter, and even if the rest
of us get 'converted' at least we will remember the old days.
