Yeah that really annoyed me about the film as well.

I'm hoping that if they change that they might also decide to change the ending as well :unsure:

I agree Niamh

Spoiler:

They should not kill her off:fist: They should leave it open for her to explore the world with Four, They could have gotten more films out of that ending, i really didn't like the fact that she died, and neither did my daughter, she cried her eyes out:bawling::laugh:

Not even just that part for me tbh, I thought the whole story was pretty poor. I was so disappointed with it I actually read a fan fiction version afterwards, that person thought up a much more clever story to end it

So I'm on Philosophers Stone, and I'm surprised at how close the film followed the book.
The films later on really miss out some wonderful scenes and moments, few spoilers...

(Nothing really major)
Spoiler:

Dumbledore's Funeral
Dobby makes an appearance or two,
Luna Lovegood does some wonderful Quidditch commentary,
We got to watch the Ireland VS Bulgaria match,
Harry gets careers advice from Umbridge and McGonangall

The Mistletoe Bride and other and other haunting tales by Kate Mosse. Not usually much of a fan of short stories but I'm enjoying it.

Starting From Here by Lisa Jenn Bigelow, a really likeable main character who lives in a trailer park.

Re-reading 'The God Delusion' by Richard Dawkins. It's a wonderful dual purpose book - essentially fiction, but also a very useful reference tool for looking up examples of 'Fallacies', 'Misrepresentation', 'Unsupported Presumption' 'Inappropriate Polemics', 'Deliberate Falsehoods', 'Argumentative Flaws', 'Strawman' Apologetics', and a whole host of other weird and wonderful things.

It is really good value for money, because the entire book is also a classic example of how to confuse 'God' with 'Religion' and how to deviously strengthen 'weak' argument by cloaking it with rhetoric.

As a biological evolutionist Dawkins is creditable, but as a serious 'Debunker' of 'God', if this book is anything to go by, Dawkins is right up there with Victor Lustig Scientit - the unscrupulous conman who 'sold' the Eiffel Tower.

I bought Dawkin's book - but I ain't buying into its content.

For anyone in the Tyneside area, the Theatre Royal in Newcastle is putting that on in January.

A Dance with Dragons - Dreams and Dust

I've only finished chapter 4 of The Girls With the Dragon Tattoo and I already think it's one of my favourite books. :love:

Crimson Dynamo 22-11-2014 06:34 PM
I am reading a book about the krays but am not sure i read it like 20 years ago...

:suspect:

Seeing as a lot of book-related threads are being bumped I thought I'd mention that I've started The Girl Who Kicked the Hornet's Nest.

The other two books were absolutely amazing. I'm so glad I chose to read the first one when I did, because I've had the book for ages but was convinced that I wouldn't be able to get into it.

Thank god I did :love:
