The first chapter is somewhat slow, but after they get to Hogwarts, it's really good!

Everyone is entitled to their own opinion. I can understand why some people think that the books are or, on the contrary, are not over-rated. I think that all of the Harry Potter merchandise that has been released is over the top though.

But on the other hand, there wasn't enough Balto merchandise released. Hehe.

Everyone can hate me for this- but I sort of agree with ya, Starsky. I like it a lot ( except for the fifth one= SOOO boring! ), but I think it's sort of overrated.


I don't know what you mean by "Overrated," but I do agree that the fifth book was boring until the end... it's always exciting/sad, or whatever at the end!!! :D

I won't say on the books cause I never bothered to read them, but the I would say the movies are pretty overrated. The first one was all right, though only thing I liked about it was Fluffy, but it was nothing great. None of the movies are. The movie that had the werewolf, whatever that one was called.. Only thing I can say is that werewolf was pathetic. Looked like some sort of over grown rat.

As for the books getting darker, wouldn't surprise me as the characters get older and older, along with some of her fans. I'm surprised she hasn't published non-Potter books.

I used to be a big Harry Potter fan when I was younger. But I stopped reading the books when I was in the middle of the 5th one. Now I just watch the films. But I don't think it's overrated.

I don't really know what you mean by overrated, but I enjoy all of the books and the films... the fifth was boring, though. :wink:

I agree with tibby. The books and the movies ARE amazing. If there one thing thats overrated is how so many people won't let there children read it because it teaches "whitchcraft"
