I became a potterhead at wwohp

A visit to the wizarding world of harry potter can turn anybody into a potterhead

Welcome to the club!

Yes, there is something magical about it for sure.

I always love the pictures Robbie adds to threads

It’s like watching Saturday morning cartoons for me...lol

I went to the early films with DD and her friends but never really paid attention to any of it. I fell in love with Hogsmeade and Diagonal Alley at UO and have since watched all of them but the last one

Did you read them? The books are even better!

I tried, I really did. I read the first book to vet it before DD read it. I'm really, really, really not a fantasy, magic kind of person. My favorite movies were Philosopher's Stone and Prisoner of Azkaban so I might borrow those from DD to read. DD loves Harry Poter but had always been a Disney girl when it came to the parks (She's not a thrill ride enthusiast!) until she went to HPland in May.

I love the WWOHP so much. Truly the best.

And the books are wonderful

I read this while wearing my H.POTTER 07 quidditch t-shirt.

Jsmla- if you weren’t a potter fan when you tried reading the books, but have since turned into one, you may actually enjoy them now.
I do not like fantasy books either, and that is what kept me from the potter books too.
But once a fan, the books are SO incredible.... waaaaaay better than the movies.

 

[only hope]

The books get better as they progress too. The later ones are better written, and written for an older audience. If you take the magic out, it’s a good vs evil with (mostly) flawed heros and (mostly) villians who aren’t totally evil.

Get the audiobooks or have your daughter read them out loud! Always makes it more fun.

 

[mitsukoshi samurai]

watched all the movies recently

We had a potter marathon a couple of weeks ago on tv.
All the movies were shown on going......non stop..

Totally! The books will go down smoother now. Try again!

The magic is real at wwohp

I think we caught some of them while we were in NY........yep, they seeemd to just be on a loop for the whole weekend........every time we turned the tv on, they were on!

Passed some time while getting ready or before we went to sleep.

I was determined to know what was what in WWoHP so I sat there pretty much all day. I only have the last movie to go and it's on the DVR. I've actually "seen' it already but only went to take a friend's kids-no idea what actually happens!

 

[meagarunt22]

Yeeeeeeesssss! I could care less about it before I stepped foot into Diagon Alley. Now I'm completely obsessed.

Hahahahaha
That’s how I was with Frozen. Didn’t know anything about it and saw the Frozen show- hysterical!
Made me want to watch it.
I can totally see Hogwarts and Diagon Alley doing that to a person!
