The last Harry Potter book hasn't even been out a week and it's already ruined lifes. People spending entire days reading, people wasting Friday's nights standing in line and people leaving the room when other's talk about the book because they haven't read it yet. It's already done so much damage. But not me. It won't ruin my life. Because there is just certain things I won't read or watch.
Why would anyone want to read a book that has been or will be made into a movie? It doesnt' make sense. Why waste hours and days reading a book that someone has already/will nicely condense into approximately two hours? Sure they leave stuff out of the movie that was in the book most of the time. But that's because they junk in the book is just extra filler and fluff. You don't need extra filler and fluff. People get mad when TV shows and movies just add extra stuff that doesn't really do anything for the plot. Stuff that's just there to make an extra episode or make it longer. People hate that. But when it happens in a book they suddenly think it's gold. It's not people. It's not even bronze. It's poop. That's what it is. I trust Spielberg and company not Random House.
That doens't mean that I've seen any of the Harry Potter movies either though. They just don't look good to me. They just look kind of gay. Harrey Gayer, I suppose. I'm not vehemently opposed to seeing the Harry Potter movies. It's just gotten to the point now where most everyone has seen at least one of them. It's kind of become my thing and now and I refuse to watch them.
Those aren't the only movies I won't see just because I've never seen them before and most people have.
I won't watch Lord of the Rings either. I did happen to read The Hobbit in 6th grade. And we watched some movie. But it was some crappy low budget crap fest.
Won't watch Star Wars either. I've seen parts of every episode I think, but I have never seen a whole episode. I came close once in middle school. We got to go to the local theatre and watch the first Star Wars that they re-made. I still don't know why we got to go. It was a reward for something we did in class I think. Anyways, I only made if halfway through that. Me and my friends started to get bored and we just started making each other pass out. Paul made a funny noise and the girls in front of us told on us. Paul ratted us out and we ended up in the lobby for the rest of the movie.
It's usually only guys the get surprised when they learn that I've never seen any of the Rocky movies. I can't understand anything he ever says. Why would I want to sit there for 2 hours listenting to him mumble?
I have a problem with the Jurassic Park series. Unless he's big, purple and friendly, I'm not watching a buch of dinosaurs. So I refuse to watch them.
I used to be able to include Mission Impossible, Shrek and X-Men in this list as well. But then I went and saw the 3rd installments of each series for some reason.
Oh, and I won't watch Spiderman either.
