Today’s strip ends the Beach Party Prelude to Saved By The Spell. We’re going to take a small break of a week or two from posting to work on getting images we need for the site made. When we return we’ll be starting on the first day of school at Harry Houdini Memorial High.

I finally saw Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 1 last Tuesday evening with my old roommate Ali. I was really happy with it for the most part. I would have loved to seem the scene with Harry and his family, and hope they are somehow incorporating it into the second half of the book or in the very least it makes the deleted scenes. I found the chase scene before they are captured near the end of the movie jarring. It’s one of my biggest qualms with action scenes in the last few years, they don’t really show what’s happening in any kind of sensible fashion, rather they elude to action happening with quick cuts. It’s lazy film making and I hope the trend goes away soon. Imagine how awful the speeder bike chase in Return of the Jedi would have looked if they used there techniques?
I’ve also been watching a lot of Avatar: The Last Airbender lately. This show is amazing and I wish I had gotten into it sooner. The story is fantastic, and easily one of the best I’ve ever seen in a cartoon series. Some of the one liners are fantasticly funny.

If anyone is looking for cheap Christmas presents, check out Rancid Yogurt. Sherry’s pins are adorable and she has an awesome sale going on. I picked up an amazing Black Cat painting that she had done, I’m in love with her style, and you should be too.
