and in what way do you consider me more childish based on my posts then someone reading (and liking) harry potter ? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
gubb dont listen to them... harry potter is to litterature what nsinc is to music... :P |
||||||||

Im not trying to be a hardcore harry-defender here. Im not saying that you are childish yourself, just that that is the attitude you are showing in your posts. It just has a ring of "middle-school lunchroom" to it... Harry potter is written by an adult, meaning that even if it is written for children, other adults can probably enjoy it. Hell, I would enjoy a novel written by a child. Any piece of writing can be an interesting insight into something. Im not trying to say your bad because you dont like harry potter, I just dont think you have to go make fun about it when other people obviously enjoy it, meaning that it probly has some merit. i sound like a schoolteacher. sorry. |

harry potter is fucking gay you faggot bitches. |
||||||||

probably. public school and all that. so what? |

ohh that "middle-school lunchroom" comment really hurt my feelings. sorry about disagreing with people. next time i have an oppinion i will shut up.. how could i be so blind and not se the brilliance of harry potter! i mean a book about a little boy with magic powers cant be bad.. i bet there is talking animals in it too, right? please say there is talking animals in it too! wanker.. "I just dont think you have to go make fun about it when other people obviously enjoy it, meaning that it probly has some merit. " yeah, i agree that it could have some merit, for a 4-11 year old perhaps.. |

well you do seem to be close-minded Gubb.. I agree, Potter isn't literature - its not written very well and the story itself, although entertaining, isn't structured very well.. but you seem to be dismissing it for the reason that its a childrensbook. which makes you the wanker. |

i have sadly NOT read the books.....but i really enjoyed the first movie...very inventive and cool FX.....so i'm looking forward to the next. i liked ALL the characters.....and i hope they go into that forest s'more cos i thought that was a perfect place for some mischief to occur =0) |

yeah, you're the wanker, bitch... |

Oh theres talking animals in it, have no fear. or maybe you could read it and find out before you make fun of it. or maybe you have, if so, sorry for that assumption. I wansnt trying to hurt your feelings, Gubb. I just think that you shouldnt dismiss things as utter shit just because you dont like it. If it has merit for 4? - 11 year olds then it can have merit for anyone. I ejoyed harry potter, i did think it was simplistic. It was obviously written with children in mind. It didnt keep me awake at night. But it was still a good, fun story, and while i wouldnt put it in the same class as Tolkien, i think that saying "i cant respect annyone who has read any harry poter books. " is a bit close-minded. |

"If it has merit for 4? - 11 year olds then it can have merit for anyone" yeah, i agree, if one are mentaly between 4-11 or have perverse fantasys about tea parties with small boys and talking animals or just a bit retarded one could probably enjoy it.. nah, perhaps i should stop it. i havent actually read the book and never will. its not just the book at such im against its as much everything around it. i fucking hate commercials showing that crap everywhere. harry potter is the mcDonalds of books (someone compared it to fast food allready, i know). its not a book its a product. you could take any book in the same catagory as harry potter and advertise it and it would sell just as much. easily digested culture for shallow people, sheep-people. i fucking despise it. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
ah you despise the commercialisation of the book. I agree on that, its pretty disgusting. and I do think the books are pretty overhyped. still, I did read the first part. so I would suggest first reading one of the books before going on and on how evil they are. makes you look really dumb and ignorant. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Gubb, im in agreement with you as well. The commercial aspect of it is disgusting (not to mention harry potter sex toys). I disliked the idea of a movie. But i dont think That Rowling wrote the book with the hype in mind (i may be wrong). So i feel that the book still has some merit, even though everything surrounding it turns me off. (or on, as was the case with the broom-vibrator). anyways.... nevermind. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|

im not going to read one of the books. it would be a waste of time. and i dont want to waste my time reading it just to find out it was a waste of time reading it. Mush: "But i dont think That Rowling wrote the book with the hype in mind (i may be wrong)." ive read somewhere when harry potter first poped up that she wrote the book mainly because she had alot of spare time since she was unemployed and living on welfare and was hoping to make some money of it mainly... anyway, she is a complete sellout and i see no reason to respect her artistic quality (if she has any). |

"im not going to read one of the books. it would be a waste of time. and i dont want to waste my time reading it just to find out it was a waste of time reading it." talking about sheep.. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
how soo? most people seem to have read it.. i have read a review or two and some articles about the book so i know enough to be certain it will be a waste of time for me reading it. how does that make me a sheep? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
because you are making assumptions based on other peoples opinions and have made your mind up without even reading the book. I think its okay to read reviews and articles and then decide you'd probably not like it. but thats not what can be read in most of your posts in this thread. criticizing the books without reading any, that really seems ridiculous to me. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i did not base my assumptions one the reviewers oppinion since the reviewer liked the book and i dont. i have based my views on the book on what i know about the book, not oppinions about the book. i know the book is a childrens book about a little boy with magical powers who goes in some kind of magic school or wathever, and there is talking animals in it and proboably fairys and dwarfs and trolls and evil that must be overcome which, will be overcome. alas, i know enough to class it as a waste of my time.. see? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yes. if you'd reread the message just above yours, I already said thats okay ofcourse. but you've been saying stuff like: "it would be great! but continue to read childrens literature if you want to. keep the stupid stupid.. " "yeah, i agree, if one are mentaly between 4-11 or have perverse fantasys about tea parties with small boys and talking animals or just a bit retarded one could probably enjoy it.. " which are all based on assumptions of the book you seem to have. and they are assumptions, based on secondhand information. from those assumptions you then make assumptions about the people who read the books. this all combined, is what makes that the behaviour of a sheep. the whole negative thing about childerens literature pisses me off, I guess. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|

well, childrens literature is often called childrens literature because its for children. and childrens are in general stupid, so why read books that are for children when you can read "real" books? the majority of grownups dont walk around in diapers or suck on passifers (except ravers..) so why should one read childrens literature? its beyond me. "from those assumptions you then make assumptions about the people who read the books" i have meet quite a few people who has read the book and then adding what type of magazines/websites that have giving it good reviews or wrote positive articles about, and from that i can extract the statistics needed to make the assumptions about the people reading the book. so in my mind my assumptions are valid. they may not fit everyone, but they fit the majority. |

Jeez, give up man you lost - if you haven't read it, how can you possibly comment on it? |
||||||||

"the majority of grownups dont walk around in diapers or suck on passifers (except ravers..) so why should one read childrens literature? its beyond me." if thats the extent of your reasoning you are not much smarter than children and childrens literature should be perfect for you. |

well, its like when your at school and you learn how to multiply numbers then you learn how to do equations and then you learn trigonometry. you dont go back and learn how two multiply numbers when you are done with trigonometry. i read childrens literature when i was a child, i dont see why i should read it now. oh, and by the way, the book is about A LITTLE SNOTNOSE BOY WITH MAGIC POWERS WHO GOES TO A MAGIC SCHOOL AND IT HAS SCARY MONSTERS AND TALKING ANIMALS IN IT! so if you call me childish for calling the people who read that book childish. .well, then that is your problem. come on people! i knew a lot of nerds listen to aphex and such, but reading harry potter??? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
YOU HAVE NOT READ THE BOOK SO... SHUT UP!!! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i repeat: ITS ABOUT A LITTLE SNOTNOSE BOY WITH MAGIC POWERS WHO GOES TO A MAGIC SCHOOL AND IT HAS SCARY MONSTERS AND TALKING ANIMALS IN IT i dont have to read it. |
||||||||

|

be nice. i dont feel i have to justify myself to you. i stick by my oppinion that i cant respect people who read harry potter, although i havent read it (OMG!!!!).. i havent tasted poo either, but im quite sure it is quite not-so-good tasting. i feel the same about the reading the book. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
nah, I was only joking, you lovely little thing.. :) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
btw gubb ur mind seems quite close to mine on this subject, im amused how i sometimes say things like this, like i dont go see movies cos the trailer make me sick or even only the poster... (believe me reading this was such a troma, s dont sue at me to much, i know im a bad boy but what boys can do vs nice girls? :) btw i only read the first one not allll the books!!! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
it should be "i cant respect people who read harry potter AND LIKED IT" instead.. im quite close minded when it comes to certain things i must admit. if ive allready formed a oppinion on something its hard to change that oppinion. i still hate mcDonalds the most of all fast food resturant since i totaly hated that damn clown when i was a little kid.. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
awww, come on! clowns don't taste that bad, give them another chance! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
lol i was saying i felt ur mind was CLOSE TO MINE(to my mind lol) on that kind of stuff when i think something is bad, its bad, im the same! to be close minded is good when u think ur right,...and i think im right too! :)) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yeah, i noticed that.. but i had allready started writing and i didnt want to change it. perhaps our minds are close since i am always right too :) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
well.. I also hate Ronald McDonald.. fuck, he still scares the shit out of me.. jesus a clown that smells of fat and fastfood all day.. AAAAH! |
