All right. Should you be at the Summit Harry Potter release party tonight, I'll be there with Hermione hair (unfortunately, this is naturally occurring), glasses, a dark pink/raspberry-colored shirt, jeans, and a little gold watch necklace (my own Time Turner omg!). Having bothered to tell you this, I will not think it's weird if you actually do come up and say, "Are you...?" You know, just to meet some some LJers in town; that seems like that would be fun.

So: off to the movie I go, with my movietickets.com-approved credit card, my checkbook for buying books, my cash for getting ripped off at the concession stand, and my phone for meeting up with The Lovely Emily (and possibly The Amazing McRachel) later.

It was sooo good. The crowd actually applauded at the end of the movie-- and then most of the movie audience got up and followed me to the bookstore. Somehow I think Charlie isn't going to be hurt by HP very much. The opposite, in fact.

I can totally imagine Wonka dangling one of the kids over the balcony... ("That's weird!")

I'm off to read the wizard!

Dude, I got total Michael jackson vibes from that movie! [well, not all that recent nasty stuff, but more like insane baby-dangling Michael]
But it was goo-oo-ood!

Heh. Depp swears he didn't channel MJ on purpose, but rather that he wanted the character to have no social skills and to do/say things he thought were totally cool, not realizing that everyone else thinks he's a weirdo and a dork. To which I can only say, "So... like Michael Jackson, then?"

Yeah, I read that, and my verdict is: Michael Jackson.

Ebert felt the same, although he didn't like Depp's performance. I thought he was superb.

You staying up to finish the book?
