I will definitely go see it but I'll be wearing my usual Muggle attire.
Unless we're talking about a July release in Australia, it will be way
too hot to wear my Gryffindor cloak (which I do wear at SF cons and
will for the 7th book release party).

Only if it comes out next Tuesday. Because I'll be getting book 7
that day anyway.

Unless you're five, it's extremely tacky and lacking in societal
manners to dress-up like a movie character. Get a life.

Hmmm... My kids and I dressed up for the last movie and the last book...

eh? I might go with a costume, or with a Potterian T-shirt ("I believe
Harry Potter!"). That or a Tonks costume :)
OTOH, I've talked before about the "Order of the sun", some local
loonies that have given the Potter fans a bad name. So, if they go with
Potter robes, I might go as a DE :P.

For the last movie, a bunch of us went together. Picture nine adults and a
dozen or so kids, all dressed in cloaks, pointy hats, carrying wands and
broomsticks. Lots of fun.

No, it's not.

that's why people have kids... so they can do the things again they quit
doing when they turned 13.

quit doing when I was 13? Naah, no such hiatus, just a bit of a slowdown.

Honestly, it's one of the best side effects of having kids. You remember
what its like to not take life so seriously all the time.

Doesn't always work for everybody. See, my son kinda hates HP. And he
likes Star Wars. And I won't go anywhere as Amidala. Never.

Ditto for Jarjar Binks. That's why I went as a run-of-the-mill Jedi. Just
a thought, are Jedi a form of wizards? Both can draw upon special powers
that most other people can't, and the stuff they do certainly looks like
magic. The only difference is that they don't need wands. Hmm. Harry
Potter and the Revenge of the Death Eaters...

Pointy hats aren't fun for the people sitting behind you.
Didn't you ever watch Sesame Street?

I'm so glad you're here to tell me these things; I guess there was no way we
could've figured that out for ourselves. I mean, not only were we
deliberately inconsiderate and kept our big pointy hats on to piss off those
right behind us (and with the hopes that they would somehow poke their eyes
out on it) we purposely kicked the chairs in front of us to annoy those
sitting in them, let our cel phones continuously ring, loudly discussed the
differences between the book and movie, allowed our kids to jump up and down
on their chairs, throw popcorn and run wildly down the aisles screaming at
the top of their lungs. When the movie was over, we left our garbage on the
floor and dumped the remainder of our drinks on as many seats as we could.
> Didn't you ever watch Sesame Street?
All the time. After all, that's where I was taught how to annoy others in
movie theatres. I mean, wasn't that the point of those skits?

Depends on *where* or *when* you do it.
SF cons, yes. Ren-fairs, yes. HP book release parties, yes. Movie,
probably not.
Work, no. And jury duty---never.
> Get a life.
Got one.

ROTFLMAO! Man! that was really funny! :D
(Whatsoever, I choose pointy hats over teenagers everyday! how annoying
was to heard them gasp and sigh every f'ing single time Cedric, Krum or
half-naked Harry were on screen :S)

Depends on if you actually want to *serve* your jury duty. I know of
someone who recommends to those who don't want to get picked to fill out the
forms in crayon...
