L.O.T.R.

Along with Harry Potter, Lord of The Rings is a series I very much like. Some years ago, me and my two best friends, at the time, used to pretend we were the life-saving-orc-arse-kicking-evil-forces-fighting trio. I used to be Aragorn….*sigh* oh, the good ol’ days…
Anyways, here is a video I stumbled upon on Youtube about L.O.T.R. The song is one of my favourites : Therion – Siren of The Woods. I think it fits perfectly with the movies…enjoy!

Harry Potter

I am a huge Harry Potter fan. Have been so ever since I read HP and the Philosopher’s Stone when I was about 10 years old. I’ve read every book (including “Deathly Hallows”) and seen every movie (up to OOTP) and I’m proud to say it truly is an impressive franchise. One thing that disappointed me about the movies (except the fact that A LOT of sub-plots and characters from the books were eliminated) is (the new) Dumbledore’s appearance. He doesn’t remotely look the old, wise, keeps-his-cool-in-tight-situations, white-”long enough to reach his belt”-haired father-figure I’d imagined him to be. I think that the late Richard Harris (R.I.P.) was all that, and maybe even more. He WAS Dumbledore. Period.

Another GIGANTIC mismatch is the colour of Harry’s eyes. Guys, Harry’s eyes are supposed to be (like Lily’s) emerald green. This is immensely important, as we find out in book seven. Daniel Radcliffe’s eyes are blue. He said they tried giving him contact lenses to make his eyes green, but they were bothering him. One would say : ‘Come on, such an important detail can’t be put aside for something like comfort, can it?’ Well, seems it can…*sigh*

Introduction

Hello, world! I’ve decided to start my own blog, due to a general plea by my (extremely) numerous fans who couldn’t bear not hearing from me once in a while….yeah, RIGHT! Actually, I don’t really know what the reason for starting this little page is, but, well, it doesn’t really matter, does it? What matters is that I have. Welcome to my blog!

P.S. I’ve decided to use english on this page because, although most (better said, ALL) of my friends are romanian, I hope to soon make some preferably-english-or-anyway-not-romanian-speaking friends.

 

P.S.2. If anyone spots a mistake or doesn’t understand a word or phrase used on this blog, leave a message and I’ll correct it or post the explanation, according to case. Mucios Gracias!(I am fully aware I misspelled that one :P )
