Lovin' Me Some Harry Potter

Lastnight Husband and I went to see "Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix," which is the 5th movie in the series. We are all in love with Harry Potter in this house...we've seen all the movies and read all the books...like most of the rest of the world. I resisted jumping on the bandwagon until I met Husband, when I decided to borrow the first 3 books from him. I ripped through them in short order. They are so creative, such wonderful stories. I've been hooked ever since.

The movies have been great as well (though per usual, not as good as the books). This movie was very different, much darker and focused less on action and more on Harry's internal struggles. Although there is another book and movie in between this and the hugely anticipated 7th and final book, this movie is a perfect set-up for the final installment. It's going to come down to Harry vs. Voldemort, and someone has to die. Who will it be?

Anyone else seen the movie? Thoughts? Theories on Book 7?

FYI - I realize by running this post, I am setting myself up to look like a total nerd. Whatever dude. It's happened before.

What are these movies you speak of? Is this something new?
