I’m watching “Harry Potter” at 8:34 PM; today, 07/26/2015. And wow, seeing this at the age of 65 gives me a prospective that I had not seen before. .,.,
Just to create some light conversation any one here care to comment on it-?

I think this’ll be happier over in Cafe Society.
How so? It’s not like you could have seen (or read) Harry Potter as a kid; it wasn’t around then. I’m not sure what your point is.
I’m halfway through the last book, so I can’t answer your question. Due to some crappy writing in the Chicago Trib, I know that Harry marries, and to whom he gets the marries.
Which Harry Potter are you watching? There are seven books which were made into eight movies.
And don’t just ask us to comment on it-- Give your own comments, or at least make clear what sorts of comments you’re interested in. After 65 years, you should realize by now that you can’t start a conversation just by walking up to people and saying “Discuss.”.
I can tell you that we have a great many members here who will happily chatter away for dozens of posts about the subject, if you give us a starting point. For instance, as Chronos points out, it’s essential that we know which film you’re talking about.
Also, since you take care to tell us what time you’re watching it, I presume you’re in the Central Time zone.
Things, huh? What’s that all about? And stuff! Am I right?
Stuff, huh? STUFF?!? Yanno what? Fuck stuff, that’s what. Stuff, my ass!
In Australia (and the UK) one would say 26/7/2015 because we put the day before the month. It’s always seemed more logical to me because it goes from the smallest to the largest unit of time. This caused me no end of trouble the other day because I had a spreadsheet that had started to use the US date format without me noticing, and as it happens the dates of the crucial days were numbered less than 12, so it wasn’t obvious - just by looking at the numbers - which way around the date format was.
Oh wait, did you want to discuss Harry Potter? Sorry. My mistake.
Broomsticks.
Broomsticks are what’s up.
Also dragons.
And the occasional car.
Just remember it’s not Lev-i-oh-a it’s le-vi-OH-sa
[Ned Flanders] …and Harry Potter, and all his wizard friends, went straight to Hell for practicing witchcraft. [/Ned Flanders]
I remember Harry Potter from when I was young.
First, Harry had curly blond hair.
People got tired of feeding their virgins to a dragon so they ask Dumbledore to do something about it. Only Dumbledore is kind of old but he says “If you strike me down I will become more powerful then you can possibly imagine.” So, they strike him down and he dies. Harry freaks out because sorcerer’s apprentice was a pretty cushy job back in medieval times. He decides to take the job on for himself and travels to the dragons lair. He has a few clever ideas that help him survive a while against the dragon but he’s no match. Then Dumbledore says “Use the magic amulet, Harry.” and he does and that’s just the trick. Harry then rides off with the girl.
I’d say it had more action adventure back then but the current Harry Potter is a better young adult series.
How so? Better or worse?
So when you were 50 it was a much different experience for you?
The OP sure is eager for that “light conversation,” yessiree.
He didn’t specify how light.
I’ve moved pretty much exclusively to a DD/MMM/YYYY date format. I find 26/JUL/2015 the easiest of the formats to understand with a glance. Though, for document versioning, I think nothing beats YYYYMMDD.
I’d shag Dolores Umbridge if she’s up for it. I reckon she’d be a right filthy minx.
I’m assuming she’s into BDSM, if that’s okay with you…
