It's from Motley Fool, a major financial information portal. It's got some neat tid-bits including the title of the next book (warning in case you want to be surprised). I am all stoked about the upcoming movie and even more-so about the next book (although the release dates for neither have been set).
I was, however, somewhat horrified by this statement: "Prisoner of Azkaban has seen a sharp drop after an initial blockbuster opening weekend, and stands at $211.7 million to date. I suspect this is more an indication of mounting disappointment with the direction of new director Alfonso Cuaron -- who deviated drastically from the original course of the story -- than any waning interest in the franchise." Can this be true? I take his word on the income so far, i mean it's a financial website. but... but... did he really deviate from the story? Or was it just a different style? I liked the new style a lot, especially compared with the last one. I mean PLEASE! I just wanted to kick someone in the neck when they all applauded Hagrid at the end of the second movie. I mean, PUKE! Most of the kids don't really like Hagrid anyway, and that was SO not in the book.
Ok, I need to go take a time-out or something.
