Harry Potter. The name of the series that made my childhood the best it could have ever been. I've read every book at least 3 times and seen the movies and equal number of times. They never get old. The magic of the wizarding world was never fully described until J.K. Rowling started writing on that napkin so few years ago. The thought of children defeating the evil villain while still getting good marks on their OWLs during the school year was a magic in itself. Maybe I'm biased, I, like Silvia, have never actually read the Lord of the Rings or seen the movies (well actually my youth minister once used a fighting clip of trees and a dam to relate it to the Bible... don't really remember what it was relating). I read the Hobbit and I loved it but it still didn't give me the same love and satisfaction I felt after reading like Harry Potter still does. For the past couple of summers my summer swim team friends and I have been running around meets with scars on our foreheads just to show how much we love the series (that all started when I realized there was a lightning bolt on the gatorade bottle and turned it into a Harry Potter smiley face). If Harry Potter isn't the better of the two, then why exactly would Universal have spent millions on the theme park? Point for HP. Plus... Buckbeat is wayyyyyyyyyy better than that creepy Gollum character. #teamHP
