I guess the Batman crowd only marginally overlaps with the Harry Potter crowd.Kinda weird, since Rowling majorly ripped of Neil Gaiman's "The Books Of Magic".
Rowling stole from absolutely every fantasy story imagineable. Having said that, I don't hate the books. I enjoyed the 1st couple (I was about 13 when the series began) and I read them all. They're enjoyable, but nothing new. The idea of a magic school was hardly original, but somehow her books made it, when so many others failed miserably. It's a strange world...

Really, is there no one other than myself who loves Harry Potter...?
All around the world there are, but I personally never liked it. The first book was good, the second was bad, the third was so horrid that I quit reading the books, the first movie was fine, the second was iffy, the third was bad, the fourth was alright, and the fifth was terrible.

Pick up Deathly Hallows. Possibly one of my favorites books ever.
Here are the ratings I'd give to each of the books (out of 10).
Book One: 8
Book Two: 8
Book Three: 9
Book Four: 9
Book Five: 7
Book Six: 8
Book Seven: 10
They're all good, anyways.

I'm hardly the biggest fan, but I think that the 3rd was the best book, actually. And the fourth film was god-awful.

Because it sounded like he had a sore throat......
I think it sounded worse than a sore throat. I thought it sounded like he was constipated and was really having a hard time talking.
It was really, really hard to get through his end speech, because he was supposed to be out of breath and everything, and that just added to the bad-awfullness of the voice.
blegh. Batman needs to get a voice scrambler.
