Hello! After a long time, I am back. And I am back for Harry Potter.
September is here and thus, it is time to remember and relive the magic of Harry Potter again. Of course, there is no new Harry Potter movie and there can never be such movie until JK Rowling writes a new Harry Potter book.
This month, the complete box-set of Harry Potter DVDs and Blu-Rays featuring all eight Harry Potter movies.
As a child, I was too engrossed in studies that I could never afford time to read books outside my studies. When I could, I was reading super-hero comics as they were short did not take a long time to finish.
For all the years, when the movie series as well as the book series of Harry Potter was going on, I had limited time. Long novels of Harry Potter series could not be finished in few minutes. The culture of going out to watch movies was not promoted in our family ever since TV channels had picked up the trend of showing movies on TV, just two or three months after theatrical release.
I became the pioneer of this culture when I came to college as in college where studies were easier for me due to the absence of Mathematics and Geography from the list of subjects that I studied. However, with movies on characters like Spider-man, Batman, Superman and Zorro attracting me, I had forgotten about Harry Potter movies. Watching these movies, I was wishing that India had movies on Raj Comics super-heroes.
Harry Potter movies always were always different from the books that they were based on. Among Harry Potter books, my favorite book is Half-Blood Prince. However, I did not enjoy the movie made on this book because the movie had skipped all the interesting things about the book. For example, the most interesting sub-plot in this book was the childhood of Tom Riddle who would be known as Lord Voldemort in future. Among Harry Potter movies, my favorite movies are Order of Phoenix and both parts of Deathly Hallows.
Among books of Harry Potter, from Philosopher‘s Stone to Prisoner of Azakaban, the stories looked as if their target readers were children. However, from Goblet of Fire to Deathly Hallows, stories became dark, probably aiming at young teenagers as target readers.
Not only the characters evolved and grew up in eight books, even the actors playing them in movies grew up and more importantly, the fans as well. I have many friends that started reading Harry Potter books since the first book, religiously followed all books and movies and today, they are adults, recalling the times when they started reading books.
My favorite character in Harry Potter stories is Severus Snape because his life was quiet similar to my life as a school-going kid.
I have all Harry Potter movies in my movies collection when their DVDs were released individually and thus, I don‘t need to buy this box set. However, if you find it difficult to collect all movies or if some movies are difficult for your collection, now is your chance to own all Harry Potter movies in one single purchase. Just grab this box-set.
Harry Potter will always be remembered by his fans and as I have been a media student, someday, I may be able to produce a 7-season TV show on Harry Potter where one season would comprise of one book. I want to make this TV show because I am unhappy to see that all Potter movies skipped many important things from the books they were based on.
Relive the magic again and enjoy it.
