It's not that I hate Sirius Black. In fact, he's one of my most beloved characters in Harry Potter. He's death in the book had left me teary-eyed for a couple of days and had me hating Harry for all his emo contributions towards the death of his godfather. But why the laugh? Maybe it had something to do with how Sirius death was portrayed on screen. As the scenes crawled towards that inevitable twist presented in the book, I had been building up emotional expectation for Sirius' death, too much expectation, that when his end did turn up on the screen and it wasn't as emotional scarring as I prepared myself to be, that laugh came up instead. I mean, Sirius puffing up like smoke through that doorway isn't what I had in mind when I was reading the book. It was pretty anti-climax for me. Sure, Bellatrix firing that Avada Kedavra curse was really sudden and all that (like in the book), but I was banking on the falling-through-the-curtain-thing to give me that painful stab. In other news, I love the movie-Luna Lovegood as much as I love her in the book. She's so weird and so up in the clouds and so wise and calm and....(I could rant on and on) and I love her! I'm still praying that JK Rowling decides in the last minute to pair her up with Harry instead, since it's the only hetero pairing I support for Harry (no, sorry Ginny, I don't like your book counterpart). But with the last book coming just days from now, I doubt if she'll change it hehe. And I have new obsessions in HP, particularly, a young-Snape that was pretty cute and a new yaoi pairing in Harry Potter aside from DracoxHarry and SiriusxRemus. SiriusxHarry has sooo much love <3 <3 |
