I just knew I had to write this Artikel after seeing a lot of Fans debating on the topic:

"Are the Bücher oder Filme better?"

So first of all, my Liebe for Harry Potter didn't start from the books. My mother kept recommending them to me, but I was younger when the Bücher came out first. That days, I always judged a book Von its cover. So when I saw a Zufällig boy with a scar on his forehead standing and 7 Bücher about him, I said, "Mom, stop. I don't wanna read it, I feel like it won't be interesting,"

My mom sagte ok, and we left the bookshop. But from that Tag on, my Friends started watching Harry Potter like crazy. I was left out because I didn't even know a word they were saying. Who the heck is Voldemort? What is a "muggle"? My best Friends were potterheads and I knew I had to learn it, so the Weiter Tag me and my sister started watching Harry Potter.

My English wasn't that good, and we opened the Filme in English. I couldn't get a thing from Harry Potter. What is the purpose and Du might find this funny but Minerva was scaring me. At the first scenes I quickly shut the TV, and didn't watch the movie for YEARS.

Uhh well.. One day, I thought I was enough grown up for the series to not scare me, and I opened them. The Filme were amazing and as a stupid kid I couldn't help but have a crush on Harry-sorry about that. I still didn't get some parts of the Filme but I kinda got the wizarding world and the Fantasy JKR made just amazed me! Plus, I related to Hermione a lot, so I bought thousands of Hermione stuff.
I kept Lesen fanfics on the internet, watched the Filme a thousand times again and again, and finally became a potterhead. I couldn't live a Tag without thinking of the Filme lol.

Since I read a lot of fanfics and liked the first Filme the most that days, I shipped Hermione and Harry. My opinion hasn't still changed though, but that's not the point. When I learned Ginny and Harry were together, I was in shock. Plus in many Mehr reasons, (mostly the hermione x harry ruining) I started to dislike Ginny.

That's when people started to force me to read the books, and since I watched the Filme and they got me in the potter world I couldn't think the Bücher were better. And I knew I had to read them because people wouldn't accept me as a Potter head.

But I am a big bookworm, and the Tag I started Lesen the books, I finished them all in a week. Ofc, I'm still periodically Lesen them because they are my fav books! So I just preferred the books, still do. First of all, the Bücher explained everything in details, and made everything clear that were mixed up in movies. For example, I missed why Dobby was saved and while Lesen the Bücher it turned out Lucius threw the socke and Dobby caught it, since Lucius threw it, Dobby was free.

And I didn't get the scary soul-suckers and what they were doing in Hogwarts. But in the books, its clearly explained that the dementors came all the way from Azkaban to protect the building from Sirius, but got to the Dark Lord's way later.

Through books, I managed to like characters better ( for example I loved Ron in the Bücher but disliked him in the movies) and Hermione became my Favorit character. I like Snape Mehr in Filme and same for Ginny (even though I dislike both Ginny's) and its just it.

Just a small problem: since I watched the Filme first, I imagined the character appearances in the movie, though in the book most didn't match. In the book, Hermione has big front teeth, in movies, she's perfect. In the book, Dudley is blond, in the Filme he is a brunette. In the books, Harry has green eyes and Ginny has brown eyes, in Filme they have both blue.

Not counting that appearance detail, the Bücher are better for me. Just an opinion :)

C'ya !
