Thank you. :)
I watched Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban with the kids today. OK, it was more like this: MicroRegenbogen wanted to watch it (again) and "convinced" Mini and me to join her, mostly because she needs someone for the spooky scenes.
And we always watch the marauders' map at the end. It is so cute, for example you see footprints go into the stink bomb store, stop and suddenly three footprints running out in different directions. Footprints jumping over letters, human footprints turning into animal prints ;D (I love that part) and a cats footprints not managing to catch the bird's footprints. LOL.
I don't know how often we have watched the film now. It is still good. Even though it is not like the book, but this time somehow in a good way, that I was OK with it.
By the way, I just remember something I read on a T-shirt or so:
"What are you doing?"
"Reading"
"What do you read?"
...
"Harry Potter and the death of the person not letting me read"
Muahahaha! 8)
Dina:
Muahahaha!
I am not such a fan of that movie. I loved the first two but the third one disappointed me a little, perhaps because the book is my favorite in the series. Still, I think Sirius, Remus and Peter were great. And I love watching the marauders map too! It is so fun! I am glad MicroRegenbogen convinced you to join her. It sounds like a nice family thing to do, especially when not feeling well.
I just began watching a Spanish series which is available in Amazon prime. I saw the lead actress in another Spanish show that I liked a lot (El ministerio del tiempo) and decided to try this one because it looked good. It is about a young woman in the 1940's Spain. She is the daughter of a (now deceased) chief of police, and the sister of the current one. She has been trained by her father to think like a cop, but being a woman at the time, she cannot be one. So when she finds the victim of a murder she begins to try to find the killer, against the prejudices of the men, the insistence of her brother to keep her safe, and her mother's wishes that she behaves like a respectable lady. She is helped by her butler, who is played by Jean Reno. I am liking it so far even when sometimes the spoiled rich girl makes me understand the men in her life actions :)
Regenbogen:
Sounds interesting. What's it called?
We just finished the last episode of the Exorcist. Rings of Power is only on Fridays. We are looking for something else to watch.
A few weeks ago Mini wanted to watch Twilight, because she was curious why there was such a hype and if it really was so bad. I told her, yes, it is bad. Not bad made but really kitschy.
I read the first book, when I was about 25, because my aunt gave it to me with the words "hey, I know you like vampires and stuff, so this must be what you like". Yeah, I like them turn to dust not sparkle, lol. I read it and I clearly didn't feel like being the right target group.
So my daughter told me her friend is a huge fan of the movies and they are making fun of her without having insight. So I agreed and we made a spoken contract, that I won't be involved in any of the other films or books. Except the second one, because there are werewolves. If she likes it, I won't forbid her to read it, because the book was well written. But for watching the other movies she agreed to go to her friend's home.
And I am allowed to run my mouth over everything I think ridiculous.
I am very glad we had fun together and she doesn't like them nor did she go fan girly over Edward. " Why do they always look as if someone died?" Great question. "Because that's the face you have to wear, if you want to be taken serious as a tragic lover."
We even watched the second one, because we wanted to see the werewolves. "Look what a sexy werewolf I am, I'm only wearing my trousers, so you can better see my well trained muscled chest." LOL
Dina:
LOL!
I have not read the novels or watch the movies.
I am such a dork, I was sure I had told you the name of the Spanish show. I think it is called "A private affair" in English, which is a good translation of the original name "Un asunto privado". It is a season of 8 episodes. I have seen 3 of them so far.
