That depends a bit on your definition of game changer... Legolas Send a noteboard - 15/07/2011 10:21:03 PM
I wonder if there will ever be anything like it again. Harry Potter was a total game changer in both children's/young adult literature and movies. Interesting indeed.

If you mean it was influential because of its huge success, then certainly. But I don't think you can really say it was all that original, as good as the series is.
