Mischief managed
Fri Jul 22, 2005 13:11 (UTC -5)I finished “Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince” today. Surely you remember that one, it came out a long time ago and everybody read it… Yeah, that’s the one. I wasn’t too shocked by the ending, although my sister cried the two times she read it. But I won’t give any spoilers for the sake of the two people who are still reading the book.
Overall, I thought it was good. I think it’s going to be a good movie if they have a good director (although the series appears to be going down the drain, as each new movie will have a different director).
- Harry Potter and the Sorcerer’s Stone (2001), directed by Chris Columbus
- Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets (2002), directed by Chris Columbus
- Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban (2004), directed by Alfonso Cuarón
- Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire (2005), directed by Mike Newell
- Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix (2007), directed by David Yates
- Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince (2008), director TBA
If there’s any sort of pattern going on here, then the seventh and last Harry Potter movie will be released in 2010 by yet another director and it will stink. As for the next book, that’s a little less predictable.
And a random thought: What’s the opposite of mischief? Just “chief”?
This is the only Ask Jordon question I’ve gotten in weeks.
Sean: What do you think of Weezer‘s new stuff compared to their old stuff?
I haven’t really heard their new stuff, so I can’t really say. But I do like their older stuff. I dig the analog tape sound.
Wikipedia has a list of Adages named after people: Murphy’s Law, Godwin’s Law, Cole’s Law, etc.

I think the books get less interesting just for the fact they get darker and “eviller” and so many people die for the sake of it.
Some girl faced depression here after reading who would die.
It should be Harry Potter wins everytime!
