Harry Potter

Last night I went, for the last time, to a midnight showing of a new Harry Potter movie. It's weird now, knowing it's over... for the past ten years I've constantly been waiting and excited for the next Harry Potter movie and now that is finished, I have seen them all.

However the movie was good, I think I cried through like the last 45 minutes of it... and in my book if a movie doesn't make me cry then it probably doesn't pull you in enough emotionally. So, that's good, because it defiantly tugs at my emotions for many reasons!

So, the new Harry Potter movie is good, and I was extremely happy to see it, but at the same time it was hard knowing it would be the last time.

But there are lots of fun things coming up in the next few weeks so hopefully there will be a lot more blogs and good things to come!

Theaters

When I was younger I always went out to the theater to see movies... as I'm getting older and paying for everything myself I've stopped going to theaters unless it is a movie I really really want to see...

Today I went to the theater to purchase my tickets to the final Harry Potter movie... as I paid I was excited to find out that they were only 12 dollars... due to the fact that my tickets to Pirates of the Caribbean were 15 each. Now... re-read that I GOT EXCITED because the tickets were TWELVE DOLLARS. That is outrageous!!

So, out of curiosity I went back to my journals/archives and found my ticket to the 6th Harry Potter movie which came out July of 2009... only two years ago and found that I paid 8.50 for the ticket that night. In a short two years prices have gone up 3.50 for a movie ticket.

That is crazy to me that they have shot up soooo quickly!!! And I just wanted to rant about that! Thanks for listening : )
