Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince (2009)
For Fans of the Books a Major Disappointment
Before you read this you should know I love Harry Potter. The message of the series and the characters have been a part of my life since I was ten years old. I grew up with Harry, Herminone and Ron. That is why I feel an obligation to warn fans of this brilliantly written piece of literature. Prepare yourselves! I am not by any means saying that the film is a complete wash but if you, like me, love the book brace yourselves for an utter let down.
They have not included things essential to the storyline. Do they include all of the memories that Dumbledore has recovered which are crucial for the next part of the series? No, my fellow Gryffindors, they have not... Dumbledore's death had about the importance of a mosquito's. There was no time for a funeral in the movie, I guess it was too depressing for the Warner Brothers executives or too boring for screenwriter Steve Kloves. The review of "summer blockbuster" is a slap in the face to all of us that as kids waited anxiously for the next book premiere. This movie was an abomination and insult to fans. The really big issue for me is that they have messed up this film so badly that I can only expect the worst for the final two adaptations of Rowling's masterpiece.
Jon & Kate Plus 8 (2007)
The show I love to hate
I love to hate this show. The kids are being exploited by their parents especially their over controlling mother Kate. Jon is no help either because he just goes along for the ride. The kids are being exposed to life that is being tapes 4 times a week. Aren't there child labor laws? It isn't real any more. All of the freebies, the new book and the way that the promote products is sickening. The last episode about Giving Back was excruciating! I mean they were giving themselves a pat on the back about visiting sick children. I know Kate said that she was just doing this to bring awareness to the issue but then why hand out "Multiple Blessings" (a book she didn't even write and is taking all the credit for) and promote the new movie "The Tale of Despereaux" while doing it. If it is all really just about giving Life Experience to the kids, how about realizing the years of painful ridicule and embarrassment to come? Those kids will NEVER know what privacy is because Jon and Kate never gave them a chance at it.
