Potter: Your Thoughts/Ideas

Now that the last cover in the Harry Potter series has been released, speculation as to what should or will happen during Harry's final adventure continues to grow. Do you have any thoughts on how you'd like to see the series end, or how do you think J.K. Rowling will end it?

And, do you think, as some on the web are speculating today, that the cover predicts anything in particular happening?

Some box office numbers...

For their opening weekend, two movies, one for teens and one for families, placed 2nd and 3rd in box office totals, with only the Will Smith film "The Pursuit of Happyness" taking the first spot. "Eragon" brought in $23.4 million dollars, and the newest remake of Charlotte's Web brought in just over $12 million.

Did you or your family members see either film? If so, please share with us what you thought.

Eragon Movie Really Panned

As we've glanced around the Internet today, we're finding that the reviews of "Eragon" based on the novel by Christopher Paolini, are very bad. The highest rating we were able to find was a B-, but a lot of the other reviews are in the D and D- categories. The film opened today.

Do you plan to see the film this weekend, or during it's theatrical release? If so, visit this post again after you've done so and leave us your review.

What's your choice? Email or IM?

A new study released last week indicated that more teens prefer to communicate via IM than via email. We're just curious, is that true for you too?
