It was November 16, 2001 when Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone hit the theaters, it was ecstatic. People were lining in the cinemas just to watch the movie that people have foreseen would be part of the movie and if not the BEST movie franchise ever. After the movie's release, the name Harry Potter has become a household name.

Every one knows Harry, I even suspect that even cave dwellers (if there are still any), are familiar with the name. The movie was a huge hit giving Daniel Radcliffe, Emma Watson and Rupert Grint their claim to fame, epitomical characters of Harry, Ron and Hermione. Surely, it'll take time for these kids to be free from the Potter's branding mark but being such made them highest earners for actors under the age of 25, Daniel is even richer than the prince of U.K. (source) Although Potter casts seems to be soaring high due to fame, none can surpass the life changing turn in the real headmistress of the wizarding world J.K. Rowling being no doubt one of the most successful author and one of the most influential women today.
As the magic continues, Universal Orlando has built The Wizarding World of Harry Potter a themed park that has truly been raved by the Potter fans because the Universal Orlando has promised that the visitor will get the total Wizarding World experience - from the scarlet steamed-engine, Hogmeades and the complete replica of the Hogwarts castle.

I for some reason was endeared to its charm for the reason of its vivid presentation and creation of a new world that one person always dreamed (plus aren't the surfacing of the word "Muggle" fascinating?). The endless search of human mind to something unproven of something that breaks the reality made people delve deeper to an enchanting world that none has ever thought exist. By all means, a simple depiction of a childhood fantasy will suffice a dreamer's fantasy of magic, spells and adventure. It's been nine years the 1st part of the final movie will be released, fans like me are excited more than than ever!
