OotP--The Movie!
Jul. 15th, 2007 02:40 amI finally made it to see OotP. I've been reading it to my children in preparation, and we're almost done. We arrived an hour early at the theater to snag good seats, so my hubby wisely suggested that I bring the book with us. We ended up being the first ones in, and the theater staff cleaning up after the previous showing seemed to get a kick out of me reading the second to last chapter to my kids while we waited for the movie to begin.
I'm very glad that I had read it to them before we went. K and P are only seven, and I was worried that the movie would be too frightening. P did cower a bit during the dementor attack (hid inside his hooded sweatshirt and peeked out), but I whispered a reminder that Harry would be fine. From that point on, he didn't seem frightened even once. K usually pesters me with "Why....?" every five minutes during a movie, but she got all of her questions out during our reading.
Does anyone still need this spoiler protected? Probably not, but just to be ( on the safe side... )
