Pottermore

[valiha]

So I'm a recent Potter fan, having read the books and seen the movies only this year. I find the world fascinating, though there are things I don't like. _For the fun of it, I took part in the Magical Quill event and got accepted as site tester.

I got my acceptance letter today and have been exploring the site. Moments ago I was Sorted - into Slytherin. :) I find it interesting. What exactly is it about me that says Slytherin? Not that I'm complaining, I was actually interested in finding out more about the House which seemed so one-dimensional in the books. Surely thre must have been more to it than "all bad witches and wizards come from Slytherin". And I think Snape is a fascinating character.

:off to explore some more:

I am unable to comment on this topic as I have never read the books or seen the films.............
Did you see my note about a film which is airing tomorrow about her life?
I posted it for those who are fans of the books/films

Yes, but it's on a network we don't have access to on my side of the globe, plus I was never that interested in her personally. I know the major points since it was difficult to ignore even while I was actively avoiding Potter.

I just posted it for anyone who was interested.
I realize some cannot get it till it is out on DVD, something I don't plan to do
even then........

Right. And I'd much rather get Thor once it's on DVD than a movie about the life of a writer, no matter how interesting the writer may be. Even if they made a movie about Tolkien, I probably wouldn't watch, for all that I like and respect him and his accomplishments.
