This also links to books, I guess, who has read all the books, seen all the films? If so which is you favourite book, which your favourite film, if you have one that is.

I'm guessing Dr. Sherlock's might be The Chamber of Secrets.

Me!!
I love the books and have seen all the films.
Between the books, I think my favorite would be The Goblet of Fire, between the films, Prisoner of Azkaban and Deathly Hallows part 1.

*raise my hand like Hermione* me! me! me!

:D

the most favorite book is : the third book! The Prisoner of Azkaban (the first meeting Harry and Sirius Black).
and about the movie : Sorcerer's stone :D and Deadly Hallows part 1 & 2.

I've read all of the books. took me 4 days just to read Deathly Hallows. I stood in line for 5 hours, at midnight at Barnes and Noble, to get that book. I still can't believe I did that, but that was my FIRST experience doing that. It was fun to see all the costumes. Alas, my book was not one of the 1st editions, sorry.

My fav book and movie in this series is Goblet of Fire. Why? because it was totally unexpected that Harry was chosen as one of the champions. (Also because David Tennant played evil Barty Crouch jr so....evilly!!) I loved the maze, the special effects, the funny hats at the world cup-- and of course the magical tents. Oh, and Robert Pattinson (Cedric) was a dream. Need I say more?

Oh, yes.....I was introduced to the HP series thru a friend, when we both went to see Prizoner Of Azkaban movie. THEN I started reading the books from the beginning and then I got the movies.

Hi guys,

Herry Potter is my favorite movie.this movie is world best movie.this movie character is very amazing and hardworking.

My favorite book: it's a tie between Goblet of Fire and Prisoner of Azkaban.
I am a fan of Sirius (and Gary Oldman) so that makes PoA my favorite movie from the lot.

If you could join a house in Hogwarts, what would you choose?
I did a lot of online quizzes and always ended up in Gryffindor. If not Gryffindor, I'd like to be in Slytherin

I love Gary Oldman too.. what a man, and what an actor

In all the quizzes I've always been sorted in Slytherin... but I would be a good Slytherin (not a Malfoy at least). And I am a Slytherin in Pottermore...

My favourite book is The Prisoner of Azkaban and my favourite movie, well, I guess the 2nd part of The Deathly Hallows.

I know what you mean. I love him in all his movies. My friends wouldn't believe me when I told them that "Gordon" (in the Dark Knight) was "Sirius" and they were like, "no, they're different people.". Haha. That's how good he is. He just melts into any role easily.

Me too. If I were in Slytherin, I'd be nice. Maybe 80-90% of the time :D Not all the time, though.

Davina · June 18, 2012 1:17 pm

You cannot be nice and in Slytherin. It's just not...right!

Oooh, Davina... don't say that... I am nice! And professor Snape was... well, maybe not nice, but he was professor Snape

sherlockskitty · June 19, 2012 2:53 am

sometimes I get sorted into gryffindor, sometimes it's Hufflepuff. Ravenclaw, maybe, but I'm too nice and not cunning enough to be put into Slytherin.

So-- I have a question--for those of us who have read ALL the books, which Sorting Hat Song is your favorite? Mine is the GOF one, because it tells us where the founders of Hogwarts were from.

jimella · June 19, 2012 6:47 am

Ah, I think I forgot all the songs, except for the very first one, when Ron and Harry were in their first year.

Sammy · June 20, 2012 7:40 pm

I'm a huge fan and of course I have read all the books and watched all the movies
I couldn't say which one is my favourite, though.
I'm a big fan of the Marauders so of course I love all the scenes that involve them.
I used to not like the third movie (as a whole) until I became a Tennant fan...
oh, and the 19 years later... I still think the book would have been much better without that.
What still bothers me is that J.K. Rowling killed of like... all of my favourite characters! I like to just pretend they haven't died.

I know what you mean about killing favorite characters.
Even Dobby...I couldn't get over Dobby.

CarlPowers · June 21, 2012 3:07 am

I don't think any of us will ever get over Dobby.

How long would it have taken them to find the entrance to COS? it took Harry almost all year.

the 4th movie was my favorite because of david Tennant. I might just sit down this weekend and watch it over again.

Yeah....they killed Dobby, he was my favorite house-elf. Winky and Kreacher I liked, and Hokey, but Dobby, in his tea cozy outfit, was my favorite. 'Here lies Dobby, a free Elf' that touched me deeply. awwwww.

We're lucky they didn't kill off Arthur Weasley in OOTP. But yeah, I was so surprised when JKR killed off Dumbly-dor. I didn't see that one coming at all. In my heart tho, he's still alive.

imane nikko · June 21, 2012 5:39 am

Oooh, it's like picking a child. I love The Half-Blood Prince, parts of Deathly Hallows (The Prince's Tale still guts me), and of course Prisoner of Azkaban.

It's weird... I had no intention of turning into an anglophile, but after my Austen phase came HP and now Sherlock... doesn't take a consulting detective to deduce a pattern.

jimella · June 21, 2012 8:23 am

If I remember correctly, didn't JKR said she originally planned to kill off Arthur Weasley? Then she decided against it, but one of the Weasleys had to go...

Davina · June 21, 2012 12:25 pm

I thought Prisoner of Azkaban was a terrific film. Apart from Dobby's death I was so sad at the death of Sirius Black and thought the scene with Luna's father in the last film was very sad and touching too.
