Admittedly, it's terribly put together. The calendar fell off the stand almost immediately, which was a good thing because it had been pasted on crooked in the first place. I put a few strips of tape across the top and a dab of glue on the back and that problem was resolved.The reason I'm giving this a 5 star rating (in spite of its poor construction) is that they have very good quality pictures, more clearly printed than in the past. And, I like the selection of photos...more relaxed...less "standard studio" release pictures and more "in the moment" type photos. This is a "fan's" calendar - made for someone who'll try to guess which movie each photo is from.Calendars are a personal choice type of thing. But, if you're into Harry Potter, you might wish to seriously consider this item. BTW: It has a ample number of Professor Snape photos...always a winning move!
I love these Year in a Box Calendars. I've had a Harry Potter one every year but one (last year) for many years. They're a bit different each year, and this year has nicer pictures than most. The one thing I dislike about this is that weekends are put on one page and they lack a picture, they just give a factoid or a quote from one of the books. The pictures are also a bit dark. I think the page is supposed to look something like parchment, but I did prefer the versions in which the pictures were brighter.All in all, it's a nice calendar. My daughter and I write Harry Potter fan fiction and we use these calendar pages to keep a visual of a character or room in front of us while we write. It helps us to keep them in character, remind us to write for their age and maturity level, or the level of evil of characters like Umbridge and Voldemort. We just keep the pages as we tear them off each day.So far we've been lucky and Monday's pages have all been nice. Every Saturday I just tear off the boring weekend page and have the Monday page up for a few days. It's a compromise I can live with. It keeps the world of magic close at heart.
The calendar was fine. 365 days... check, images from Harry Potter....check.....picture quality....not so much. The pictures were obviously taken from screen shots of some variety. They seemed very dark and very grainy. The calendar does not sit on the stand and falls off right away. I believe others have had the same problem. The picture variety is very good and everyone and every movie are represented but not really pictures you would want to look at all day. I would pass on this one.
First of all, I was VERY happy to see a 2013 Harry Potter calendar! Huzzah!I was annoyed when it fell apart immediately, however. But, that's alright, I've propped it up and it shall suffice. It's not like I intend to cart it around!What I find disappointing, however, is that certain days that would be a character's birthday do not have that character's image. I mean...how hard is that?! Not even 31 July is Harry, and he's the main character!I know, it's a small thing to find disappointing, but... *tragic sigh* It's a big one for me.The images are wonderful quality, however, and I find myself hopeful for a lot of Snape!
Content of product - A+; however, product itself was of poor quality - calendar was NOT attached to stand; had to heavily tape calendar to stand in order to use properly.
Excellent product. I gave it as a gift to a family member who is a big Potter fan, and she loves it! Daily pics from movies are a good perc for any Potter fan.
i hope harry potter calendars will continue to come out. this will set on my computer table because it looks great and i can see it every day with new stuff.
My grandaughter is into all things Harry Potter and loved this calendar. I also got here the engagement calendar, but this was the one she really wanted.
