What's with all the killings!!??!

(Daniel Radcliffe. Picture is just for your eye pleasure.)

Ugh, don't you hate when a favorite character dies? I'm watching Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix, and I am just at the end of it right now. You know who dies in this one. I don't wanna say names for those of you who don't know who it is, but I'm sad. I'm always sad when a favorite character dies. I remember the first time I read the book, I cried. It was dreadful.

I have read books this last couples of days who have characters dying, and I think I need a break. An emotional break. You can't make me love a character and then just take him/her away from me! It's not right, it's not fair *insert whining sound here*.

Anyways, yeah, characters dying is horrible, but not all characters can keep on living. It makes the story more powerful, gives it more depth and emotion. Blah, blah, I get all this, still, it would be nice to not have characters that you love die.

Well, the movie ended, I wonder what will I watch next...

In books or movies I hate it when my fav. character dies. In Harry Potter book seven my fav. character dies and I got sooooooo mad. Its like I can't wait for the movie but then again I don't want to see my fav. character die on screen..ugh.

I just watched 2012 and yep they get you to liking a character to have him be sacrificed to help others, etc and you just want to scream. I know it has to happen and I sort of knew it would but yep I agree I hate it when characters die. :(

I hear ya...dead fav characters are the worst. Book 7 killed me also. But it was almost like it had to happen. Oh well. Watch something happy, like hotel for dogs or something lmao.

You're totally right with the depth and emotion, but why did Hedwig have to die??!?

And I can't wait for HBP to be released on DVD!! :D

Yeah, I hate it when a character I've grown to like just up and dies.

I know exactly what you mean! Soo sad.... This makes me remember when I was reading Specials by Scott Westerfeld. SO SAAD! *Cries*

I don't know if any of you watched Angel (from Buffy) but in the first season his sidekick was Doyle-- an Irish 1/2 demon guy that I adored! That's been how many years ago, and I'm still not over him dying on the show. He was awesome. To make it worse he ended up dying in real life too! Ugh.

EternalJade said...

I completely agree with you.

Reading book 7 was completely depressing. A lot of characters I had come to love and practically grew up with died. *Sighs.*

That death was a horrible one, for sure. Me and my husband both had major emotional ties to that character. :(

I watch Harry Potter whenever I am sad. But I still hated when you know who died! Oh - and the seventh book! Seriously? Sadness :(
I still love them though :)

Oh I sobbed when that character died at the end of that HP book!!! I couldn't go onto the next book for quite some time. It was too depressing.

There have been a few series where characters have died and it takes me a few books to know and accept that they're not coming back.
