Potter-Mania for the Last Time

The crowd at AMC Theater in Rockaway enjoys the last of the Harry Potter series.

The Rockaway AMC Theater drew some attention on Thursday night, opening night for the last of the Harry Potter series that began 10 years ago. The theater was surrounded on both sides by devoted fans who wanted to get to the final on-screen performance, entitled Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, Part 2.

The crowd was generally youthful with college kids who remembered reading their first Harry Potter book in early grammar school or watching their first movie when they were eight years old.

Everyone had a favorite movie, but each person Patch spoke to had seen all of the eight movies.
