Today, I queued up for few hours in torrential rain to see the Harry Potter premiere. After just four hours sleep and waking at 3am, I fell asleep during film and missed the whole thing. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, stood in line for hours to see the new Harry Potter. Unfortunately, once inside the theater, I was stuck in the bathroom with the runs for the entire length of the movie. FML
Today, I went to see the new Harry Potter movie with my boyfriend. Feeling an intense need to pee, he decided to sacrifice a few minutes of the movie before the highly-anticipated final combat to get some relief. He went through the wrong door, locking himself out. Right until the end. FML
Today, I had to do a "damage report" on myself after going to the midnight premiere of Harry Potter. As I was waiting for the previews, a 20 year old man dressed as a house elf tackled and wrestled me for my seat. FML
Today, I pulled an all-nighter to finish rereading my set work for my English exam. I managed to finish earlier than expected and decided to get some sleep. I then promptly slept through my alarm and missed my exam. FML
Today, after a long and tiring day at work, I went to the movies, where I loaded up on soda, popcorn, and candy, and settled in to enjoy the movie. I ended up falling asleep and being woken up two hours later by an usher. FML
Today, my boyfriend finally convinced me to watch Harry Potter for the first time. I was bored out of my mind the entire time, and by about an hour in, all I could think about was how badly I wanted to punch Hermione for being a rude little know it all. FML
Today, I was watching Harry Potter. When all the students at Hogwarts started to clap at one point, I started clapping myself. FML
Today, I got to the movie theater early to avoid missing the previews. I sat through 20 minutes of trailers before realizing I was in the wrong auditorium. FML
Today, during some previews before the new Harry Potter movie, a guy stood up and led the audience in an enthusiastic and rather successful chant "H-A-R-R-Y!". Minutes later when I attempted to do the same thing, I was pelted with half-full bags of popcorn, freezing sodas, and booing. FML
Today, I earned the nickname of "Harry Potter" for all the wrong reasons. I got locked in a storage cupboard for most of my shift, and couldn't get out. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

This happened to me too. I feel asleep during the midnight premiere of Transformers. Just go see it a week later or something. You're obviously a big fan and already knows what happens so it's not like someone is going to ruin it for you.

#77 — Don't forget that the books aren't good either. If you want good, quality fiction, go read Oscar Wilde or Aldous Huxley. JK Rowling is a good-for-nothing, uncreative businesswoman who is successful at writing tawdry populist fiction, getting away with it, and earning huge sums of money from it. Put simply, Rugrats is of better quality than Harry Potter. And Rugrats is crap.

Read the book lazy ass, Books made into movies are almost always bad, trust me.

if they went to the premiere i'm sure they DID read the books. not too many people are huge fans of the movies (because they do suck).

i think they did a good job with the 5th movie though. I thought the order of the phoenix (the book) was pretty crappy but the movie was decent. but yeah... i need to brush up on the 6th book before seeing the movie.

Are you kidding me? the 5th book was amazing, and the movie left out and changed so much it hurt me to watch. Go die in a gutter somewhere.

Again, (speaking from the perspective of someone who works around the corner from Leicester Square where it's taking place) the UK premiere still hasn't actually started! (Though it IS raining like hell over here!) So somebody's either a time-traveller, a fibber, or is talking about one of the earlier films! Or they're a wizard. Which I guess would make sense if it's Harry Potter...

funny...a news article from over an hour ago is talking about the premiere like it's already happened. http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20090707/ap_en_mo/eu_britain_harry_potter

Alright people, I'm 18 and I LOVE Harry Potter. I have grown up with the books and I'm beyond excited for the movie to come out. The books don't suck, they are some of the most amazing books I've ever read. I love how they totally just take you to a whole different world, and can get you away from the real world. Everyone just needs to back off and leave us Harry Potter fans alone.
