And yes, I'll for sure get both of them. And there's no question about release parties, they WILL happen. There's a reason why the release date is July 31st at 00:01 a.m. - I'll watch the play in London on the 27th of July, so i'll stay around for the release parties that same weekend!!! I'm so excited.

I just noticed too that the book will be 320 pages long. That's pretty large - a lot longer than I would expect a play to be.

In regards of the page count, we do have to keep in mind that this is a play in two parts, so double the page count of any normal play. I also think this may not be the final count? Maybe that's the length of the script the cast is working with, but once it is fitted into book format it may change? Who knows how advanced in the editorial process they are.

Proof that it was the anticipation that was the life of this fandom. Not knowing what was going to happen in the next Harry Potter book was what made the whole experience. I am hoping with The Cursed Child and Fantastic Beasts, this fandom will rise again. Only 105 days left until The Cursed Child.

Re: Harry Potter and the Cursed Child
I promised myself I would not even try to check if the forums were active, or if people were discussing this or not...yeah, I could not help myself.
Here is what I need to get out of my chest, already got it out on face but, muggles are clueless about these, so no one can give me hope. 1.I am scared this new installment will ruin my favorite story.With this darkess will come from unexpected places, I am afraid they will go Kylo Wren on us. 2.okay, maybe I am over reacting, but I would not be pleased if Albus goes dark wizard on us, I am entitled to my opinion right ? I would hate that.Unless, the story told us about his doubts, the pressure of being Harry's son and how his friends, Rose and Scorpious help him find the right path...I am being cheesy , right? I dont care. 3. I am hoping, since according to Jo, it should be regarded as canon, that is stays true to the message that love is the greatest and most powerful magic of all. There, those thought have been consuming my soul for the past days, finally voiced them out. Its good this place is still around, even if not so active ![]() Quote:

Re: Harry Potter and the Cursed Child
I wonder if it will be possible for the Internet to "#KeepTheSecrets" for more than a month and a half until the script book is released. We'll see!

Re: Harry Potter and the Cursed Child
If all that is true, it cannot be considered canon, at least to me....its just too...can't find the right word.
Will have to wait to read it, to make a valid statement, but my expectations have been lowered , I hoped for something worth of the title"the eighth story "

Re: Harry Potter and the Cursed Child
If anyone wants in-depth spoilers for the second part of the play, you can read them on this tumblr:
http://victorkrvm.tumblr.com/post/14...child-part-two I thought part 2 was even worse (except one part near the end that I liked). I'm personally not going to consider any of this as canon. This doesn't feel at all like Harry Potter.

Part two didn't seem any better than the second.

Re: Harry Potter and the Cursed Child
An incomprehensible mess that contradicts book canon.
