Very nice site for Harry Potter info!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Anyways, Harry and Hermione are not gonna date. They are best friends and thats not gonna change. Sometimes people are just meant to friends and nothing more. I do believe that if Harry lives in book 7 (which I do think there is a chance he will die) then he will end up back with Ginny, since the threat of Voldemort will be gone and he wont have to worry about losing her.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

In an interview with the press about Ron and Hermione and whether or not there is something there JK Rowling said there was. :?

In chapter 28, Flight Of The Prince, Harry and Dumbledore's retrieval of the locket in the cave it is discovered that the locket contains a piece of paper with a small note.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

To the Dark Lord

 

 

 

I know I will be dead long before you read this

 

 

 

but want you to know that it was I who discovered your secret.

 

 

 

I have stolen the real Horcrux and intend to destroy it as soon as I can.

 

 

 

I face death in the hope that when you meet your match,

 

 

 

you will be mortal once more.

 

 

 

R.A.B.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Could the real locket be the same locket Harry found in Order of the Phoenix? In Chapter 6, The Noble and Most Ancient House of Black, Harry finds a "a heavy locket that none of them could open..."

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Our Regulus-is-RAB theory seems that more plausible now 8)

You are right, this sounds like it could be it! perhaps it was in the stuff that the hustler dude (forget the name) was selling.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Also why is it the flight of the prince, its the half blood prince.

Well, after Snape bs'ed Dumbledore, he x-ed out of Hogwarts along with Malfoy 8)

Well he obivously didn't go in the Hugglepuff common room but he said he ran past a hallways with painting and suddenly there were 2 or 3 kids in pajamas looking like they just woke up. Obviously they were close to there dorm, meaning they were probably within shouting distance.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

And yes it's obvious that Hermione is going to end up with Ron but why's that? How come Harry never really went for her? She only went for Ron because he's there and single whilst Harry is clearly showing no intrest. And it's not like Harry wants to stay single either from the looks of it. I know if I was in his position I wouldn't have waited more then a year :wink:

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Which brings me to my next point. People say that everyone will, at some point in there life, read a book/watch a movie that the find interesting. Not just interesting, but the like the story line and the plot so much that if they were given the choice: "Keep on living life like normal" or "Leave this life, never see your current friends/family again and live in the world you just read/watched" they would instantly pick the latter. It's a rare feeling that most people really onle feel once. Previously common stories were "Star Wars", "King Arthur", "Spirited Away", or "Lord of the Rings".

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Question: How many of you would choose the latter of the two choices if right now they were offered to you. My guess is 90+%.... A poll would be nice, but simply posting would do.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Personally, I would have to choose the latter.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I'd become part of the Harry Potter world in a heartbeat. Not even that long. I'd love magic. I mean school has a purpose here, but it's so different in that world. Everything you learn can be used in the real world. Not to mention you will be able to defend yourself.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Plus, there's no talk of aids or cancer in their world. No std's either :wink: :D

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

And no one has lauged at my lotr joke still :( (couple pages back)

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I laughed at it but didn't feel compelled to say anything untill you dropped 2 hints on this page :D

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

and think of all the stupid * you could do and just instantly heal yourself. I'd definitly take up base jumping 8)

Oh that reminds me. Some people are speculating that Harry is Gyrfindor's last decendant and that he is in fact the last Horcrux. Just something to think about.

2003676992682512083_rs.jpg

I think JK disproved the whole line of gryfindor (I spelled it wreong, whatever, its late) somewhere. Or maybe that was Slytherin. Anyways, why would harry be a horcrux? Is voldemort that idiotic? I mean, hes trying to kill the lad.

Yea, personally I don't really think it makes sence but their arguements are along the lines of "thats what his scar really shows" and "thats why he ordered no one to kill him" :?

2003676992682512083_rs.jpg

Yeah, I agree with the thought of Harry being Gryfindors heir, and being a horcrux, marked by his scar. That would definitely conclude the book perfectly, rather than a happy ending, but a sad, dramatic ending with both dying.

I seriously doubt Harry is a horcrux. You saw the pain caused to both when Voldemort posessed Harry. I'm sure something very similar would happen if part of Voldemort's soul resided in Harry..

I honestly can't see Harry fight Voldemort alone in a "last fight", I mean, how much magic does he really know?, He hasn't performed any powerful spells in the 6 books, only some freezing spells... And he is going to fight the most powerful wizard known in times... :roll: ...

He knows all the unforgivible curses, just needs to work on them.

Speaking of 'most powerful wizard of this age' I wonder just how powerful Merlin would be compared to Voldemort/Dumbledore :?

 

 

 

They never even really mention him directly, they just swear by him and have "Order of Merlin, 1st Class"

Finished the book, thought it was very good, but not quite up to par with some of the others. My explaination for this is that this was a set up for the final book. Nothing big happened in this book (with a few obvious exceptions) instead, many questions were raised, which will be answered in the final book. This bool was shorter, and lacking in some detail, due it being more of a set up.

 

 

 

I have one question though. At the end of the book, Bill is sitting int he bed with ghastly wounds, and the pheonix is singing. I thought for sure this was a perfect setup for fawkes to swoop in there and heal his wounds, yet instead fawkes just disappears forever. Whats up with that? Is it because fawkes only heals people she likes and knows? She heals harry in the 2nd book, or something, using her tears, yet ignores bill and just sings. Can someone tell me why?

I think fawkes was just a metaphore. Just ment that something that seemed like it could live forever, was gone. I wouldnt worry about fawks and bill, dont think too much.

From reading other forums, I picked up some ideas. Mainly the possibility of Snape actually still being a double agent but still being on Dumbledore's side.

 

 

 

Here's the proof of DD's death being a staged setup.

 

 

 

DD went down too easy. Just because he had no wand didn't mean he couldn't have stood a chance. He's such a powerful wizard, and I don't think he'd go down that way.

 

 

 

The whole thing could have been prearranged, with DD specifically asking for Snape. Him talking Malfoy out of it to delay time for Snape to 'kill him fakely'?

 

 

 

Freezing Harry to stop him from intefering. That's a possibility because Harry would have wanted to defend DD, while DD's plan was to stage his death.

 

 

 

DD has a patronus of a pheonix - which by chance gets reborn out of its ashes.

 

 

 

DD knew that Draco had a mission (maybe knew it was to kill him even). Maybe he allowed Snape to stage it to save Draco and Snape's(through the vow) lives?

 

 

 

Snape could have even used a trick wand type thing that the Weasely twins sell. Or perfected a way to cast that spell while disguising it, having it being nonlethal.

 

 

 

Snape made his main concern from there being to run away; not to cause any harm to Harry (although he was emotional so I'm not sure).

 

 

 

So even when Snape killed him, DD completely trusted him. Was he that clueless to just rely on a false hope that people deep down are good? Or is there more to it than we believe? DD is in a white tomb - not buried underground I don't think.

 

 

 

Now we have to question why he would want to stage a death. It doesn't make much sense does it? Leaving Hogwarts in a mess like that. Possibly he saw the Horcrux's as a higher priority and needed to devote all of his time to finding them.

 

 

 

I mean imagine book 7. It's supposed to be only a little bit longer than book 6, but SO MUCH has to be crammed into it. Harry Potter finding 4 horcruxes on his own? Wrapping up so many characters and storylines and what happens with everything? Leads me even to think that JKR would have a loophole in her saying something along the lines of "there will be 7 years of harry being in hogwarts I will write on" - when possibly book 7 won't be at the school (shut down a year or Harry not going), and a book 8 being released after, wrapping up the rest of things and ending the school year officially.

 

 

 

Anyways, book 6 unsurprisingly left me with more questions than answers, and I can't wait to read the finale.

what you said

 

 

 

Or you know, Dumbledor even said he himself is wrong sometimes, yet when he is wrong, very bad things happen. This being one of them.

at the end of the book it says harry will never see dumbledore again but he could still talk to him via the portrait in professor McGonnogals's (hope i spelt that right) office and also harry could be a horcrux because when voldemort tryed to kill him thats when he became a parselmouth and the prophecy says voldemort would find him as his equal and when he did the evada kedavra curse he could have sent part of his soul into harry and dumbledore is dead!!! his portrait appeared before anyone had entered his office which means it was put up there by magic and it only would happen if he had died :twisted:

(><) my sig is cool, if you agree put this in your sig. *is too lazy to animate*

^the bunny is back! yay!

If she makes it so Snape turns out to be good and Dumbledore didnt' die I will be royall pissed off. That will just be the stupidest thing ever.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

"omg I like killed you and pretended to be bad, but it like wasn't real"

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I know she'll word it differently, but that's too..I don't know the word I'm looking for. Dumbledore should be dead and Snape should be a bad guy. if you say he's alive, did he have to apparate out of the tomb then?

Snape is probably still a good guy. Dunno if you read this, but, to repeat a theory earlier on in this post..

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Dumbledore would have never begged for his life, it's possible he was pleading for Snape to kill him so that Snape would be able to continue to serve as a spy for the Order and ultimately do more good than he would have been able to by saving Dumbledore's life.

ahh..so we're figuring Dumbledore is still dead, it's just that Snape had to kill him and he knew that. I don't think Harry will ever understand that.

Well if you think about it, you're perfectly correct Ryan. I believe that Dumbledore asked Snape to kill him so that he could continue to work undercover for the order, but who knows that? Only Dumbledore. Dumbledore has said he has his reasons for trusting Snape, but now that he is gone, how will anyone know? Noone else knows that Snape may have killed Dumbledore upon his own request. So then that just defeats the entire purpose of Snape being good?

Good pojt BMW. I would have to say there are only 2 options:

 

 

 

-Snape is evil

 

 

 

-Snape isnt evil, but he will no longer work for the Order (they want to kill him). Meaning he will have to work on his own mayby trying to kill Voldy by himself

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Question: If Snape is good why did he knock out Flitwick? I mean, as a Charms teacher he is probably really good at dueling and could have really helped out...

Yeah, that made absolutely no sense.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

And some good points bmw :).
