THE BEST HP&PoA (movie) PARODY EVER!!!!

70 pages of comments confirms this. It may also mean I'm the last person of fandom to know about it, but, eh... I'm always the last to know.

If you don't believe my assesment as this being the best HP&PoA parody ever, read these excerpts:


---------------
DRACO: OUTTA MY WAY, PLEBE, IT’S MY TURN ON THE HORSYBIRD!

BUCKBEAK: *administers a two-hoof beatdown*

DRACO: *cries for Daddy*

HAGRID: Lord. Tell Madam Pomfrey to pull out the smelling salts, I gotta bear Miss Malfoy here off to the fainting couch.

DRACO: Faster, plebe! I do believe I have the vapors!
------------
SNAPE [shouting after them]: WEREWOLVES WEREWOLVES WEREWOLVES!
------------
HERMIONE: If you want to kill Harry, you’ll have to kill us first!

HP FANS: OMGWTF THAT WAS RON’S LINE! YOU CHANGED THINGS FROM THE BOOK!

LOTR FANS: What are you, new?

rant, rantity rant

okay, I get that sometimes, we writers, sin by writing too many epiphets (the ad man, the wizard, the warrior, the mortal, the inmortal). I do, sometimes suffer from that malady.

But, it works, when you're trying to make a point. To diferentiate two diferent beings (i.e. "Ares looked down at the mortal in disdain") or to say that by nature of who they are, they _____ (i.e. "The goddess of love never had had to worry about personal hygiene before" ;-)).

But when every other sentence has an epiphet.... well, even the most interesting looking story must suffer from the Back/Delete/Close Button.

Really. I know Methos is an ancient inmortal. I got it the first, second, third and fortieth time.
