Harry Potter And The Deathly Hallows - Part 2 opened at 12 a.m July 15, and today marks when it all ends for Potter fans.
Harry Potter And The Deathly Hallows - Part 2 was the final film in the epic series about a young boy wizard who must defeat the Dark Lord in order to save himself, and both the wizard and muggle world.
For Potter fans, this film is the end of an era, where Harry Potter, Hermione Granger, and Ron Weasley have been extended family. And although the actors might be relieved to put their wizard days behind them, fans are in the midst of a grieving process -- either for the end of a 14 year period, or for what might be the end for the boy who defeated you know who when he was just a baby.
In this latest film, only one can continue to live: Potter or the Dark Lord, Voldemort. Fans who have read the books know the ending but those who have been following via the films only, are in for an ending that is sure to if nothing else bring closure to the film.
