The essay was very good. I think the arguments speak for themselves, in such a way the H/Hr shippers, besides being pissed, could do nothing to shoot it down. Still, the people involved took it a bit too seriously to be much fun. I think we ought to convert them to boy sex ^_~
And rant away! Even if my strong suit are movies, I can analize books worth something, and it's always interesting to listen to someone that knows what she is doing. I like to take things appart a bit too much, so if you go at it by the pice, all the better for me ^_^
And the characters... well, I like Harry Potter, but by now Harry has grown quite a bit and his perspective hasn't changed that much since he was 11. His view of the world is so simple that I'm left craving a bit of complot, a bit of lies and deceit, power struggles and politics. And I'm feeling the lack of a brilliant bad guy, too. It's fun, but, there's too many empty spaces, and that's probably why so many good fanfickers are into this fandom; they have a lot of space to move around.
Well... that. Start with your analissis and I'll tell you what I think. Oh!! And I have to confess I haven't finished OotP #^^# It got here once I had been severely spoiled (I had to wait for the spanish version, released about 6-8 months after the english one), then I had to wait until it blew over, because I wasn't going to pay a small fortune for it and then... well ^^ I bought it bout' 5 months ago, but the Pendragon Cicle and Isaac Asimov I loove just a bit more.
