So sue me, I haven't followed the HP fandom for quite a while now, but I stumbled onto this on a completely non-HP related thread on IMDb and think that it is "TOTALLY AWESOME!" \m/


Harry Potter the Musical



I don't know how long this has been floating around, but it's pretty brilliant. Example, Harry telling Ginny why they can't be together: "What I'm trying to say is I don't want my life to be like Spiderman 3, I hated that movie." XD Also, tap-dancing Voldemort! And Rumbleroaaar!

Darren Criss, who plays Harry and wrote a lot of the lyrics in the musical is pretty amazing, too. If you check out his youtube channel, there's an awesome vid of him singing "Part of Your World" from The Little Mermaid. ♥

So... before I read any reviews that might change or color my opinion, I just want to say that I think the HP6 movie was great. I actually want to go back and watch it again, which never happens to me with HP movies, as I'm usually content to see them once and then just catch them on TV.

( My overall impressions. )

This is the benchmark to which all of the HP movies should strive. Or should have striven, since we are now on the sixth one.

( After the jump: Things I really liked, and just a few things that gave me pause. )

Now it's time to go and read everyone else's thoughts and find out if I'm the odd man out. ^_^;
