Philosopher's Stone - OFFICIAL Thread

Discussion, philosophy, chat, all about the first Harry potter book!

i liked this book when it first came out but now i dont no i think its kind of boring. i dont know if thats because i have read it like thousands of times but its definatley not my favourite

wow, i leave for a few days and the forums overrun with official threads 😛
i still like philosophers stone... not as much as the more recent ones, but i think thats just because theyre still new and exciting.

I don't like it as much as I used to... whyen I first got it, I read it constantly for about a month, everytime i finished it, I just turned back to the beginning and started again!

me 2

7/10 average

Ok can someone please tell me why you are calling it the Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone? Over here we all call it the Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone.

Do they do things different in the states then in the rest of the world?

YEAH IN America I guess the name was changed.....it was a huge conflict on here a few weeks back.........

AS FOR THE BOOK...........i didn't like it as much as i liked the other ones...BUT IT WAS STILL GREAT! The movie made me mad b/c they left out the part of Ginny running behind the train!

at the begining it sounded a lot like roald dahl (soz cant spell it proper) but as i read more and read the other books they became different, it sounded babyish at first, but thats my opinion. im reading it for the 3rd time and iv seen the movie loads and loads of times (like 50) theyre are lots of differences between book/movie though, i would have liked to see mr dursley at work and id av liked to see the dursleys & harry in the hotel aswell! o well.

Edited by PHOE - JK called it Philosopher's, so don't yell that it is Sorceror's in future please, and don't be rude while your yelling.

NO!!! It's PHILOSOPHER'S STONE! For your FYI, J.K Rowling was very upset when the Americans changed the book to SORCEROR'S STONE! She is also upset that they changed Mrs. Weasly to MOM.....she is not a MOM....she is a MUM! And thirdly..... the "jumpers," aren't "jumpers", the are pinned skirts....DUHHH!!!!! 😠 GET IT RIGHT! Or at least read J.K. Rowling Biography!

I'm really not sure why they changed it. Perhaps because the Philosopher's Stone is an English Legend?

Well I heard that the Americans changed it because the people who read it couldent understand some of our terms, so they changed it so it was easyer for them to comprehened the books 😖mart:

they are hot allround

You have sumhin rong with u

🤨 wtf: 🤨 wtf: 🤨 wtf:

I don't think Philosopher's sounds right. It just doesn't have that magical ring to it that Harry Potter is suppossed to have.

That's just my opinion though.............
