Have you read them, D3v? If not, you're being ignorant(which is nothing new for you.) You're one of those people who will bash it until they actually read it and realize that it's popular for a reason.
I know, I used to do it as well. Back before I started reading it, I would bash it like crazy, and then I actually tried reading it for myself and loved it.
For a matter of fact I did have to read the second book for class.., and the fantasy jumbled b.s. that was in the first book was nothing new, just the whole fantasy aspect of being a "wizard" is simply pitiful so boring and overdrawn, and the movies make it even worse

I don't particularly care for their depiction of magic and wizardry either, but there's something about the books that I still find enjoyable.
I think it's just JK Rowling is a good author and how the scense flow together it's easy to read and not hard to keep up at all..., but to me,.. the whole concept is stupid..

There's a few very interesting things in the books, but as I said, I don't care for her depiction of magic, it's catered to children though.
Children like fantasy where magic is doable by almost anyone, since it implies they would be able to do it too. I simply prefer the D&D style of approach, where it's a difficult art to learn, perform, and inherently dangerous.

Just because you dislike it does not mean that the entire book is childish. You say you go see Incredibles and Finding Nemo in the theaters (and enjoy them) and then procede to call Harry Potter gay/childish. I know you won't bother to read the whole series but they get darker and darker as the series goes on. I believe the books have both adult/childish aspects in them with the adult aspects becoming more common the further you read into the books (makes sense because harry is maturing right? lolol) There is plenty of death and destruction further on in the books if you bother to read. I'm not going to call you retarded for arguing that Harry Potter is gay after reading one book... but don't start bashing it just because in your opinion the book does not have a very good concept. Sorry if your maturity level is beyond such things as cartoons and fantasy.
I like KA, have grown up with HP for like 8ish years and I started in junior high when MJ introduced me to the first book so naturally I'm a pretty big fanatic. I gaurentee you there are SHIT TONS of people age 15+ that buy that book due to the fact that the series started so long ago.
I'm just making a point, you can pick anything adult-like out of pretty much anything, as well as call anything in the world, childish. I'm just saying the whole wizadry fantasy doesn't appeal to me, whatsoever. But you guys can go on reading them if you're into the series enough...
