| | | Harry Potter on Entertainment Weekly list
Harry Potter has featured on another Entertainment Weekly list, this time featuring pop culture hits that readers say the magazine couldn't pay them to see. Quote: Harry Potter. I have read none of the books or seen any of the movies. I don't really plan on starting any time soon. —professor74 |

You know, EW might have just put in that quote to get Harry Potter fans mad. It seems a bit desperate to me. Pathetic really.

Whoever said that was probably just looking for a reaction because they know so many people like it.
When something is that popular, I bet people think they are being radical when they say they don't like it, like "hey look at me man, I don't follow the trend, take that you band-wagon-jumping losers!" I'm not saying you have to like the book, we all have our own opinion, but you shouldn't knock it till you try it, and if you don't like it, don't make a big deal about it. I don't like Harry Potter because everyone else does, I like it because it's good.

and its a bit sad that they actually put a quote from someone who has no idea what HP is about. Its not just a boy whos a wizard.

That's.... That's really bad.
They have got no idea what they're missing.
And we have tons of people here to back it up!

How terribly dull. They haven't read the books or watched the movies and they don't seem to have very good taste in Magazines ether.
Enterainment Weekly is an extremely boring magazine in my opinion (except when they have a Harry Potter artical), But I have read it before and atleast I gave it a chance.
These folks don't seem to like the idea of trying something.

I really hopes everyone that reads that article on the EW page makes a post like myself just to show how crazy that poll is. We overwelm the post page just to show how strong the HP fan base is.

Hogwarts RPG Name: Saben Salazar Slytherin | No surprises here... This does not surprise me. Harry Potter is the best selling book series of all time. Nothing can beat it now or in the future. Of coarse its going to be published on the face of magazines! Wake up people! |

Psh. That guy's an idiot, and has no idea what he's missing. But, as long as I love it, who cares? I'm happy!

Hey, come on guys. I repeat what i said before: People are allowed to have opinions. It's OK if you don't agree with what everyone else says, but you don't have to criticize them about it.

Whatever. One person refuses to read the books or to see the movies. It's not a complete loss. Obviously that person isn't worth talking to.
