   I never understood why none of those magic experts at Hogwarts couldn’t improve Harry’s eyesight. You’d think if they could do stuff like grow bones back in his arm that they could do something like a little adjustment to improve eyesight.

   Cool! She’s got the lightning scar, too – now all she needs is a working wand! (Good question ewalnut: you would think; Rowling most likely has a plausible answer.)

   Yep, this is when the first installments of both movies came out. Our family went to the movies on Christmas night. My wife and I saw LOTR; the kids saw Harry Potter. It worked out great as everyone enjoyed their movie.

   I’m totally with Jason on this one. Went to all three LOTR movies on opening day and am SO excited for The Hobbit next month!!!

   I am also stoked. I’ll have to re-read The Hobbit before I go.

   I need to read my copy of “The Hobbit” before the first of the three parts comes out.

   Good point. But it’s common for overly powerful characters to forget their powers. Just watch “Super Friends.” Or “My Little Pony” if that’s your thing.

   Harry wasn’t the only character in those books to have glasses either. I guess using magic to improve your eyesight was considered too risky.

   The problem with magical eye spells is that you can wind up with lens edge artifacts, “halos”, and poor night vision. But they will always offer to sell you another spell.

    Jason can be really thick sometimes.

    Harry did get his glasses fixed by Hermione in the first book.
