Boosting the Business
There is a movie that is coming out soon that I think everybody should know about. There may be many highly publicized movies and huge Christmas blockbusters coming out soon, but these Hollywood high-rollers shouldn't keep us from recognizing the truly entertaining, although not as well-known, upcoming releases. And so, in honor of this movie, I'm writing a special entry in my blog to bring some publicity on what could possibly be one of the greatest movies of the year. Some of you may have heard of it, but most have probably not. So let me say this once and let me be very clear: Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire comes out in just a few days, DO NOT OVERLOOK IT.
Harry Potter first started as a book series, but never acquired much acclaim. This did not deter the author, J.K Rowling, and she continued to pursue her creation. She has made her story of this young boy a seven part series and six of these seven books are currently on the shelves. If you're not into books or if you're illiterate (in which case you can't even read this...bitch), a courageous movie production firm, named Warner Brothers, has decided to take a chance with putting these books onto the silver screen.
Three of these movies have already been released in the past four years. These first three movies (The Sorcerer's Stone, The Chamber of Secrets, and The Prisoner of Azkaban respectively) went largely unnoticed by critics and mass audiences alike. They did not fly under MY radar however and I recently watched all three. These are pure works of art, a gateway into a fantastic magical world. I have come to love these movies so much that I feel called to spread the word about the upcoming fourth movie which, as previously stated, is called The Goblet of Fire.
Now many of you may not know who Harry Potter is. In fact, I'm pretty sure I'm one of the few places on the Internet where you can hear about this young boy and his stories, but if you're looking for information, you've come to the right place. The series starts with an eleven-year-old Harry, a normal boy, just like you and me...except his parents died when he was a baby and he is now raised by his evil aunt and uncle. And, oh yea, he's a complete loser, the type of kid you would trip in the hallways at school and who would come into school one day with a gun and shoot many fellow students before killing himself. Yet this is not the path that young Harry chose.
Eventually a really fat fat fat man named Hagrid tells this boy he's a wizard. For a long time you think that this giant of a man is some kind of con artist and cheap magician. Then you come to accept that he just might be telling the truth. So Harry goes off to a school for magical boys and girls where little green elves serve them and where pixies and magical beasts of all kinds exist and frolic. Perhaps that sounds a little sarcastic, but you actually learn to accept this as truth too.
In Harry's first year he learns his parents were killed by an evil wizard bent on world domination and the destruction of muggles (that's me and you, non-magic people). Even wizards and witches dare not speak this evil man's name. At the end of the book Harry saves a mythological stone known as the Sorcerer's Stone (AKA Philosophers Stone), which can turn anything to gold and produces an elixir of life, from He-Who-Must-Not-Be-Named. In Harry's second year he kills a snake that can only be described in one way, huge-muther-fucker, by pulling a sword out of an old talking hat. Oh, and a phoenix cries on him to heal his mortal wounds. In his third year, Harry becomes convinced that an escaped convict is the reason for his parents death. He tracks this guy down and is ready to kill him, but becomes apparently hoodwinked into thinking the man is innocent. A brave professor at the school named Snape dares to tell the truth, but his views are denounced and we're once again forced to accept that Harry is right.
Now it's Harry's fourth year and he's back again to his crazy antics. I don't want to ruin it for you, but let's just say it involves dragons, mermaids, a sphinx, murder, and hilarity will NOT ensue. Oh, there's love too, awkward, hormonal, teenage love.
Now I feel the free press I'm giving to this movie will increase its business exponentially. There's no doubt in my mind that because of me this movie will make hundreds of millions of dollars and create hundreds, if not thousands, of fans. If I'm right, I don't ask for any money or any increased popularity, all I ask is for people to give credit where credit is due. I demand respect.
Harry Potter and The Goblet of Fire releases two days from now on November 18th, 2005. Don't miss out on what could quickly become one of the biggest fads in the world! And tell the people at the box office that I sent you, they'll know what that means.
