This poll is probably a foregone conclusion, but in the interest of fairness I wanted to gauge how much interest/hope/anger/boredom/amusement their remains as we come to BOTFA.

You would be crabbit about them ending? Surely it's a cause for celebration?

Or do you have a soft spot at heart? Suspect

When you say 'Relived", do you mean, would it be good if someone 're-lived' all the movies? Like, 're-did' them? I can vote for that idea! Very Happy

No they exist still, will always exist. Just because they have ended doesn't mean its over. It will be there forever. If thats not a crabbit inducing thought I dont know what is (ok I do, a world without buckie is worse, but only just!)

Bungo had to take some time off to deal with a family matter.

Now that you bring it up, Mrs Figg hasn't posted for about three and a half days. Hopefully she's just got something going on this weekend. Smile

Those are weird results, it seems we are relived it is over, but conflicted as to just how relieved we should feel (given the next two most popular options are 'sad' and 'indifferent' it seems people are more annoyed that they don't care that much.

I'm partially sad it's coming to an end, but it's more upsetting to know I'm largely positive about BOTFA being Jackson's last 'adaptation' of the books...
