No date for Potter...

Somehow, despite being an avid Harry Potter fan (put away that look of scorn and derision... please), I find myself not only having not been to see the movie -- having opted to wait a week for the crowds to thin. And am the only one of nearly everyone I know who hasn't seen it.

Including those who haven't even read the books [casts dark look at both Tanya and Chris].

I, of course, will blame the person who went see it without me, who I felt reasonably confident would share my glee at whichever events and ommissions occurred.

But worse still is knowing that, after seeing so many films alone (one must get used to it when one is reviewing films and therefore is no big deal), it is an entirely different matter to pay great heaps of money for the same experience.
