Yet another call by me.

If the books are so good they will stand a little criticism ... if you feel they cannot stand up to criticism.. well go figure......

This is a Tolkien forum...you were comparing Harry Potter to Tolkien on topics that weren't even devoted to it.

Critisize Harry Potter all you want -- I don't care (I've critisized it myself). Don't do it on a Tolkien forum.

I'm not saying, "Don't you dare touch the Harry Potter because it is teh awesomeness!!!!1111!!!" I am saying to keep Harry Potter or whatever else in it's own circles.

For example: The Istari are not like the HP wizards.
