After two years of waiting and eight months after it was supposed to be released, Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince, is finally being released. It will come out at midnight in between July 14th and July 15th and I am going to be right there when it premiers. I am going to the midnight showing at one of my local theaters. I bought my tickets last week and they only cost $6.50, which is not bad for a midnight release. Gottta love the student discount!
I am planning on dressing up, but I am not sure if I’m going to go as a character or just wear my Half-Blood Prince t-shirt that I painted for LeakyCon. I’ll probably make a last minute decision as usual.
This particular Harry Potter book is where the title for this blog came from. Towards the end of the book, Ron Weasley asks Harry if he has taken a potion called ‘Essence of insanity’. I am sure that the general scene will be in the movie as it is quite essential to the plot (of course, when has this stopped Warner Brothers before?), but I have no idea if that particular line will be used. I really hope it is.

I’ll be thinking of you when I hear that line.
Haha. Dork. I really like your blog name though, insane one.
I bought my tickets yesterday! I’m taking my 12 year old nephew and joining a group from work (don’t you love that HP can bring fans of vastly different ages together?!). I’ll look for the line, too, and think of you!
I love that about Harry Potter! It’s something everyone can enjoy together, no matter your age.
