Harry Potter 2011 Movie Challenge

Welcome to the first Daemon’s Movies challenge, which is also a great way to start off the year 2011. And since this year also marks the ending of the Harry Potter series with the 8th and final movie coming out on July 15, we thought this was the perfect time to experience the entire series one more time before it all ends.

So what does the challenge entail? We will be watching the movies 1-7 (one movie a month) leading up to Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part 2 and we would love for you to join us and participate as well. This is also a great opportunity for anyone who hasn’t yet seen all 7 movies, or if you haven’t seen all of them.

But why should I participate, you might ask. Well in addition to monthly giveaways, we will have one BIG giveaway at the end of the challenge that you will not want to miss.

And to add to the excitement, Daemon’s Movies is also partnering with its sister site, Daemon’s Books, which will be hosting its own Harry Potter book challenge in parallel. You can find all the information for the Daemon’s Books Harry Potter challenge here. Feel free to participate in both challenges or just the one that appeals to you. I’ll of course be taking part in both.

You can see all our coverage of the Harry Potter challenge here.

Step 2: Write a review or opinion piece about the movie on either your blog or any of the following places:

• Rotten Tomatoes
• Amazon
• YouTube
• GetGlue
• Our designated comment section (see step 3)

Step 3: Starting February 1, 2011 and at the beginning of each subsequent month we will have a post up for you to share links to your reviews, opinion pieces or to write comments (designated comment section). This will count as proof of your participation.

Note: Each proof of participation will give you one entry into our final big and exciting giveaway. There will be only one entry per movie (no multiple entries even if you put multiple links). That means that if you complete the challenge from beginning to end and provide us with proof of your participation for each movie you will have 8 entries.
