Someone stole my Book 4. (My brother-in-law.)
How do you pronounce "Hermione"?

Hermiiineee?

Or Hermeeeeyohne?

Or Hermoyneee?

Oh, and to answer your question: yes I am.

Going next Monday (I'm not an impatient freaky-fan), hoping the crowds won't be there.
The only person who has been quoted as not liking it is Andrew Lloyd Weber. He probably wasn't chosen to do the music, so he's meowing.

I think it's:

Her-my-o-nee
(with stress on the "my")

That's what I thought, but no one around my place agreed.
But then, they're mispronouncing everything. Drahco, instead of Draayco.

Did you see who's playing a Gringotts goblin? Mini-me! (Can't remember his name.)

I also saw that John Hurt is in the movie, but he doesn't seem to be anyone major. The wand shop guy?

I believe Antimony is correct.

I am looking forward to seeing the movie, but I can't stand crowds, so I will probably wait a few days as well.

I'm reading the first book again. A little light reading after months of studying for Exam 5. Maybe that's why I like the books. It's a nice change from Group Insurnace.

I thought THE movie wasn't coming out for another month or so.

Of course I'm going to the movie!

Unfortunately, I'll be traveling over the weekend, but I've marked a special place on my calendar for Tuesday evening.

I don't care for waiting in long lines for tickets, super packed crowds, etc. but I do hope that the theater is mostly full when I see the movie. I think that It'll be fun to witness first hand the responses of the new generation of bookworms. [rim shot]It'll be fun to see the kids too![/rim shot]

I'm also re-reading the Sorcerer's Stone. I haven't memorized these books the way Draco has and sometimes its hard for me to remember what occurred in which book.
