It was an amazing day. I enjoyed talking to the many people in the crowd. My sister, Marissa, described a lot of the conversations she heard as people trying to "out-nerd" each other. People talked about everything from Harry Potter (the obvious topic,) to Doctor Who, Merlin, Cons, X-Men, education (okay, well that was me and someone else discussing the American education system vs. other countries' systems,) Supernatural... and the list goes on. There were plenty of fantastic t-shirts and outfits to admire as well.
The most amazing part of the day was we in the shade all day. The most not-so-amazing part of the day: the set up of were the fans stood. To me, the lay out could have been very different and much more convenient and organized for everyone. However, that still didn't stop us fans across the street from cheering for our beloved actors and actresses.
Here's some photos from the event:
Marissa, Chrissy, and me enjoying our day. :)
Matthew Lewis (Neville) talking to the fans!
Emma Watson (Hermione) talking to the fans.
Daniel Radcliffe (Harry) from far away, talking to the fans.
The best footage I got that day is in video form. The first 2 minutes of the video is the first waiting part of the day, then the meat and potatoes happen with the stars arriving.
Overall, it was a successful day. Dinner helped with that too, as we made an impromptu stop at McGee's Pub (we thought of Timothy McGee from NCIS) only to find out that that restaurant was inspiration for "How I Met Your Mother," and had many HIMYM-inspired entrees including the "Best Burger in New York." Sweet!
The movie premiere thing is something I see myself doing again... although seeing a Harry Potter one is mighty epic. Reader, if you ever want to go to a movie premiere in NYC... I'll totally go with you. :)
