The wound was reopened, and made to bleed once again.  No more new adventures at Hogwarts.  The boy who lived found his way into our hearts through the pages of seven fantasy novels that erupted onto the big screen, all of it ending tonight with the release of the second part of Deathly Hallows.  
    It was slow.  It lacked the artistic flair of the last few, specifically the Goblet of Fire, which in my opinion, is the only one of the films that stands on its own.  However, it is Harry, and so all is forgiven.  Did I cry?  Of course.  Especially when we watch Snape’s memories in Dumbledore’s Pensieve.  Did I cheer?  Yup, especially when Harry rises from the dead and again with Mrs. Weasley when she gets all crazy on Bellatrix.  Am I glad I went to bed at 5 a.m. because I was wearing Potter-style glasses and a Ron t-shirt, while I stood in line with people wearing capes and Gryffindor ties awaiting the release of the final movie?  Yeeeeah!  Not the point though.  
    
Deathly Hallows Part 2 gets 2.5 Elder Wands. 
Harry, Hogwarts & their legacy get 5 of Lily Potter-style Talismans of Love!
