Day 23 - Any part of the books or movies that makes you cry?

Well, the last four movies have made me cry but more meaningful is the first time I read Deathly Hallows.

Initial excitement got me through page 67. Page 476 on the other hand, that was really bloody hard. It did help that I had just taken a four hour nap twenty pages before so I was still a little out of it.

Page 661 was the absolute final straw. I wailed, I screamed, I cried like a baby.

I put the book in the freezer.

I called Amanda and serenaprn and we tried to console each other. They both suggested WATCH COUPLING NOW!

I did and it calmed me down. I was able to take the book out of the freezer and finish the rest.

...but seeing it on screen in July?

I'm going to be a sobbing mess in front of everyone. It's scary.

You put the book in the freezer? o_o

I just sort of put my bookmark in and shoved it under my covers until I had finished sobbing. :(

Oh, yeah, I forget not everyone watched Friends.

This explains the freezer thing.

Hmmmm..... I remember crying when Hedwig died in the last book. I could not believe that after all that Harry went through that the author was cruel enough to take away his pet like that. It is just heartless. I have lost too many pets over the years, gone through the grief and sorrow, then to see it any other way. I really don't think that it was necessary.

Other novels have made me cry, but they are not in the HP series. I do remember being shocked that they killed Dumbledore when I read HBP....didn't cry that I recall but I was very surprised. I guess I had always thought he was untouchable somehow.

You want to really cry at a book, read that one about Mudpuppy (Salamander). People of the Owl.

Oh, and if it makes you feel any better, I was a sobbing mess in the theater already, way back when I went to see "The Wrath of Khan", back in the 80s. Spock dies at the end and to me that was just horrible. I was just a kid, too, which I think made it worst. My Mom was crying, too, and she later told me the theater guy acted confused, like he couldn't understand what we were crying for. But it was heartbreaking!

Good thing they brought him back!

But in this case there won't be no magic planet to save poor Severus.

It will no doubt be a movie we dislike watching on DVD, just like I don't watch AWE very often (for reasons you already know)....... Guess I will just have to rewrite AWE myself, err? I already told you the plot.
