Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince

Another GREAT summer movie release! Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince, the movie that documents the 6th year at Hogwarts. Receiving an average of “GO!” on Fandango’s “Oh-no” to “Must go!” scale and an 85% Rotten Tomatoes Rating, this movie is full of action, love, and scariness. As an avid Harry Potter book reader, there were a couple things that they left out, but to me that doesn’t conclude a bad adaptation. A movie adaptation is based off of the writers’ and director’s opinions and ideas, and it cannot be EXACTLY like the book. The book gives more detail than the movie which is usually the case in these situations.

Movies across the country had Midnight Showings and Special Premieres. Fans dressed up as wizards, carried wands, painted lightning bolts, and had a great attitude towards the opening. The UA Bonita Lakes 9 Theatre in Meridian, MS, with the help of The Radio People, held a great party with fans lining up out the door! They turned to BuyCostumes.com and used our Harry Potter and DeathEater Costumes!

We want to encourage more customers to post their photos from their Harry Potter Parties to the Product Pages. It’s really easy and we love seeing our costumes in ACTION!
