    It used to be Harry Potter, but now it's the His Dark Materials trilogy. I've started The Amber Spyglass now. It's just so well written and clever and a lot deeper than other books like Harry Potter. It's just brilliant.

    My favourite character is Pantalaimon, and it was from the moment I started reading, but I'm not completely sure why. I like Iorek Byrnison too because he's sort of a rogue and a hero, but done in a non-cheesey way like most characters like him. He also cares a lot about Lyra - I find it strange how many people love Lyra as a daughter when they really only knew her for a short period of time, especially Lee Scorsby, he just piloted the balloon and would have defended her with his life.

    I can't wait to get to the end :D

    Family guy

    People really don't understand what good comedy is anymore. Family Guy is just the lowest of the low, seriously.

    Hmmm, I have a few...

    -My dad leaving
    -Friends trying to kill themselves :(
    -Any time I'm flying, I hate it.
    -Having to talk to obnoxious c***s at school
    -When a cat got runover outside my house (I was home alone) and was screaming in agony :( I went to help and I got her bandaged up and everything and was looking for a vet but then she died :'( and then I tried to look for her owner (didn't have a collor on) but I couldn't find them, so they must have lived miles away...it really affected me in a big way to see her die :(

    Hardly anyone's heard of it in England X|
    But the majority of people who do know what it is have played it so it's good :D
    However when I first started playing there were a couple of people who knew who it was who'd never played it assumed I was gay because I liked something Disney :confused: but yeah, haven't really had that much stick for it...

    I havent XD
    If we stopped playing, then why would we be on this forum? :/
    I still play the original when I get bored of KH2, because KH2 is so linear and has hardly any sidequests, and KH1 has so many hidden things and lots of ways to play, in fact I'm playing it now on Expert mode, I attempted to before but accidentally deleted the wrong save file X| haha. I'm on Agrabah and stuck on the Pot Centipede, I've been trying for an hour but those fricking antennae always get me :( and I've tried levelling up and everything...but I won't stop until I do it, I can't go for more than a week without playing, it's that addictive...but yes, I do have a social life XD
    Wow, what a random rant...

    Tron

    I saw Tron by accident before I knew it was in Kingdom Hearts 2, lol. It was randomly on TV once, I was flicking through the channels and it was on and I sat there mesmerized...haha
    And then it was announced for KH2 and I was like "...:eek: I'VE SEEN THAT FILM!!!" and everyone else was like "...I've never even heard of it." haha. I'm such a nerd XD

    I loved Oliver and Company, it was the shizz :)
    And The Lion King's one that's close to my heart, my earliest memory is going to see it when I was 2, and how they had to stop the film temporarily to get the children, including me and my sister, to stop crying after Mufasa died so that everyone could hear the movie haha
    And Hercules was my third favourite :D
    I think we had every single Disney movie ever on video :/ haha

    I live in the UK but I've seen it anyway ;) lol. But yeah, it was abit crap tbh :/
    I laughed once...it didn't even have a fight in it! It was pretty boring, and I was disappointed by the lack of action, the action scenes were the best scenes in the first two...I think I might have laughed twice actually...I laughed when Puss and Donkey switched places and Puss tried to do the cute thing while in Donkey's body, and at the end when Artie said "the only person standing in the way is you.." and they try to kill someone they thought he was pointing at XD that was the only humour that was like it was in the first two films. I really wanted a fight! I wanted to see Puss in action...Puss is my favourite Shrek character :]
    My favourite was probably Shrek 2 (PUSS!!!), I really liked the story behind it, but Shrek the Third seemed abit lifeless to me...

    I loved it! My favourite parts were the Davy Jones' Locker sequence and the Maelstrom, esp. Jack vs Davy, Elizabeth and Will's marriage via Hector (I've always called him by his first name since I watched the first film with commentary XD) and Elizabeth vs Davy, that was pretty cool. Elizabeth as the Pirate King was pretty surprising...I was a bit p***ed off with how Chow Yun-Fat died so early on :/ but yeah. I'm curious as to what happened to the Empress, it just disappeared and Elizabeth just seemed to abandon her crew halfway through XD

    The last scene with Elizabeth and Will made me chuckle:
    Will: *puts on boot* I'll need the other one."
    Half-Naked Elizabeth: *puts leg on rock with boot on*
    Will: *licks knee*
    Elizabeth's face: *dominates the shot, smiles in a rather disturbing way as Will ventures up her leg*

    :|

    haha
    I forgot to stay for the after-credits scene :(
    But I've seen it on YouTube anyway, so yeah aha
    I laughed at the moment Will was stabbed by Davy Jones, not because he was "dead", but because of the amount of fangirls who screamed and began to cry, aha. But I liked that moment, it was a brilliant trio moment, Jack, Elizabeth and Will. There havent been that many scenes in the series that affected me that way, but I like that they all had a part in defeating Davy Jones and the Trading Company. I loved Beckett's death...

    BECKETT: *in shock, walks down the stairs and everything behind him is destroyed and the powder kegs blow up*
    BECKETT'S BODY: *ironically lands on the EITC flag*

    Stuff of legends XD

    I think it was definately my favourite of the Trilogy, I never thought they'd outdo Curse of the Black Pearl, but IMO they have with At World's End (even if they were only actually "at world's end" for 15 minutes haha). I really don't see why the sequels have recieved such mixed reviews. From what I've seen, the only complaint really is the length and that the story was abit too complicated for them to follow. One reviewer I just felt like smacking, he said "I saw the second film last year, but I still don't understand why Davy Jones is allied with the East India Trading Company or why Jack is in Davy Jones' Locker."
    Erm, hello? Did you pay attention when you saw Dead Man's Chest? The main plot is how if you have Davy Jones' heart you control the seas, it not that complicated...and if you don't know why Jack is in Davy Jones' Locker then you don't even deserve to have it explained to you, you movie n00b.

    So if anyone was actually intelligent enough to understand what was happening, then you can appreciate what good films the sequels are. My advice is if you are going to see At World's End then at least watch Dead Man's Chest first, otherwise you'll be lost...and if you don't understand what happened in DMC cause it was too complicated, watch it a couple more times, then you'll know why stuff happened (Y)

    Wow, sorry about the long post, I'm just really enthusiastic about Pirates of the Caribbean ^__^
    If DMC and AWE aren't in the next Kingdom Hearts I'm going to kill them, haha. It's just an awesome world and I think a lot of fans would be annoyed if they didn't include them, dontcha think?

    OK, I'm going to stop typing now.
    Any time...
    Now.

    I'm gonna do your categories (Y)

    Hardest - Ursula first fight-KH1. She was so annoying. Oh, and Sephiroth KH1.
    Easiest - Barbossa. Wish he was harder.
    Weirdiest - Ground Shaker
    Funniesist - Demyx
    Longest - Grim Reaper, esp. when he steals all the medallions, takes forever to get them all back.
    Fastest - Again, Barbossa.
    Stupitest - Experiment.
    Most Aerial - Storm Rider obviously.
    Most Grounded - hmm, aren't most of them?
    Most annoying - Pete, esp. when he goes invincible.
    Unexpected - Probably Terra. But I haven't got Final Mix so yeah :/. Probably Sephiroth in KH1, wasn't expecting him to appear when I pressed the question marked thing in Olympus Coliseum.

    ME: *goes to coliseum*
    PHIL: Which tournement do you wanna enter?
    ME: Hmm, there's a question marked one...*selects, walks into the coliseum, nothing's there, flash in the sky, beam of light comes down.*
    THING: *kneeling down* ...
    Me: ...hmmm, looks familiar...
    THING: *Stands up* ...
    ME: Oh, I hope that's not...
    ONE-WINGED ANGEL: *DUNDUNDUNDUNDUNDUNDUNDUDUDNUDNDUDNUN*
    Sephiroth: *turns around, evil smile*
    ME: Oh, crap...
    PLATINUM MATCH, SEPHIROTH
    ME: *frantically thinks what to do, runs*
    SEPHIROTH: HUHHHH! *whacks with sword*
    ME: *half HP gone, tried to attack Sephiroth, misses*
    SEPHIROTH: *hits again, kills me*

    Haha
    I was panicking when that happened, had no idea he was in the game, aha

    Definately Dead Man's Chest and At World's End (Y)
    If they don't I won't be pleased.
    After all, Jack wants to take the Keyblade!
    And a four way swordfight (Sora, Jack, Will and Norrington) boss fight would be cool!

    I'd like to see the Incredibles and a Bug's Life in it too...they're the only Pixar films that would work with the format IMO. :/

    I really wish Harry Potter had been made into films by Disney now...I'd love a HP world :(

    I haven't seen Vexen's death in the original CoM. But when I saw it in the Re:CoM cutscenes I have to say I had a similar reaction to Sora XD

    I found it kinda dark and dirsturbing, for Disney, even compared to the series as a whole. I mean, burning him alive! (Well, he doesn't actually exist but you get my drift.) I actually felt kinda sorry for Vexen, from the cutscenes I watched he's one of my favourite Organisation members, but his laugh was rather nasal so he had to die. :)

    I think it'd be good, it'd be better than turning it into a film. You wouldn't be able to fit everything into a film, so if it was made into an anime you could dedicate a whole episode to each world. Maybe having two-parters for major events eg. Hollow Bastion in the first game, The End of the World, Hollow Bastion/1000 Heartless, Roxas could probably fit into one episode if they take out things that just slow down the plot, the World That Never Was/ could probably take up 3 etc. Wow I'm thinking about this way too much X| lol.

    But yeah, if they got the same voice actors and everything and maybe they could get Disney to make it, or a good company to do it, then yeah, I think it'd be great as an anime. It'd probably make the game more popular though, like it did with Pokemon. Even though Pokemon was already popular in Japan and so is KH, but yeah you get my drift lol.

    My top 5:

    1) Zexion-You wish your weapon was a book! =]
    2) Saix-I love how he's too calm :| haha
    3) Axel-*obsession with the Keyblade he gives you*
    4) Roxas-We got to play as him! How could you not like him lol.
    5) Xemnas-when he's talking to Ansem the Wise, he looks a bit like Michael Jackson, especially when you get a closeup of his face :| lmao. But that's not why I like him, it's his voice just before he fights Sora for the first time, when the music just cuts out and he just sounds whiney. Makes me chuckle.

    I played them in order.
    Except for CoM, it's so hard to find in England X| and I can't shop on the internet 'cause my parents got their credit details stolen and they're paranoid it'll happen again ¬_¬ lol

    I heard of KH about a year before KH2 was released in Europe (ie late september 2005), and i thought it looked pretty cool, but then I forgot for a while :/ lol. Then I saw the first game at a shop in about January so I got it and I loved it so much! :D
    In the first game, there's so many little things you don't notice and loads of side quests during gameplay, and some things I didn't notice until my 3rd or 4th playthrough, eg the locations of all the boxes of evidence in Wonderland, and if you complete them you get Blizzard early. I also noticed the thing when you complete Deep Jungle before Wonderland where Alice is replaced by Snow White. And I was surprised to see the Nightmare Before Christmas appear too, having not heard much about the series before I bought it. My favourite world was probably Neverland, I was sad to see it not return in KH2 :(
    My favourite boss fight in the first one is probably Riku-nort, it's just so epic, Sora fighting his best friend to save the heart of the girl that it is not so subtlely hinted that he loves XD. It was a really emotional fight and is probably my favourite in the whole of the series.

    And then Kingdom Hearts 2 came out in Europe finally, I don't know why it takes so long as it's exactly the same as the American version :/
    I really loved playing as Roxas, it made me want to live in a place like Twilight Town :( lol. I don't understand why the intro with Roxas has been heavily criticezed, I loved it. I was pretty confused about why Sora was asleep, cause I hadn't played CoM, but as I got the Secret Ansem Reports I understood.
    But once we were playing as Sora again I was pretty glad. Except I hated going to Yen Sid's tower, his voice did my head in. It's so...husky. *shivers*

    "NOBODIIIIESHHSHH!"

    :|

    haha
    Other than that, the game was amazing, but too easy. I loved Port Royal, one of my favourite films was finally included :) I just hope they keep it, I love the fight with Barbossa, I just wish he was much more difficult. I was pretty surprised by Tron (I try not to look at spoilers, I like being surprised. I hadn't seen any evidence that this was in KH2), having randomly watched it in the summer. I knew it was a Disney film but I wasn't sure how it would fit into Kingdom Hearts, but it worked perfectly. The fights with the MCP or Oogie Boogie were definately the best Disney fights, but my favourite boss fight was Xaldin, because it was actually a pretty difficult fight for me the firrst time round for a change.

    I can't actually decide which is my favourite :/ they both have their good points and faults which cancel each other out lol.
