Harry Potter Discussion (spoilers)

I'm pretty sure it is. I haven't seen those particular spoilers, but I saw one of a supposed scan page that gives away a huge spoiler about Snape. I don't think it's real, since the writing wasn't really up to par, but the spoiler DID make a lot of sense from my perspective.
 
So it might've been fake, but if that character still DOES die.... I'm gonna hunt down and kill that wiener-eater. He'd have defeated my whole idea of getting home from the bookstore without being spoiled by drive-by A-holes, and not leaving the house (except for occaisional walks) until I finish it, so as not to be spoiled whatsoever. And now, if that character dies, whether the leak was real or not.... :cry:



"Snape Kills Dumbledore!"


"NOOOOO!!!! YOU *****! YOU *****!!" <--- that would be me.
 
You spoiled it for me by telling me a characetr would die at all!

Also, I've got about 250 pages left in book 6, jerk!

(actually The Simpsons spoiled that for me)

Sorry.

But, 1) we've already discussed the book six spoiler in here, as this is a Spoiler-marked thread, and 2) I'm pretty sure that we've talked about J.K. Rowling mentioning that at least one significant character will die in book Seven, which shouldn't come as a surprise seeing as the title is "Deathly Hallows."

But regardless, I'm sorry.

Nah, I'm just kidding. I don't don't go into a spoiler thread not expecting to learn about something that came out two years ago.
 
Harry just kissed Ginny!

I'm sitting at work reading book 6 and I have the stupidest smile on my face right now. I don't even care about the horrible things that are still going to happen, this was never spoiled for me and it makes me happy.

I'm so gay.
 
Well, Snape just killed Dumbledore.

I don't understand, though. Why did Dumbledore freeze Harry before Malfoy approached him? Why didn't he have Harry fight with him? He seemed to trust him a lot as a competent wizard.
 
Because Dumbledore wanted Snape to kill him, because if Snape didn't, Snape would have died because of the unbreakable vow.

And Snape still has a very large part to play in the War Against Voldemort.

And I think the ring might have been already killing Dumbledore, which is why he allowed himself to be pushed to the brink of death so regularly seeking the horcruxes.

Also: Snape was in love with Lily, and defected when he became responsible for her death... Its also why in the first book he looks into Harry's eyes, surprised, and why he hates Harry, who looks just like his father.

The moral of the series this far is that Love overpowers all Evil, and that it is the strongest magic of all.

That's my take anyway.
 
He was pleading.

You could easily read that as him pleading Snape to kill him, because he's worried that Snape won't do it, throwing all of his plans to the wind.

Also, it all happened from Harry's perspective. And Harry hates Snape.

Snape runs into the woods after all this, practically shouting advice to Harry... I really don't think he turned on Dumbledore. I think Dumbledore knew that Snape would have to kill him, which made it so much more important that Harry learn everything this year.
 
I think Snape killed Dumbledore because he was supposed to. Dumbledore wanted to sacrifice himself to motivate Harry into killing Voldemort, and to get Snape as a mole inside Voldemort's ranks.

My mum denies Snape even killed Dumbledore though. :roll:
 
JK has said that Dumbledore won't be coming back to life...

But yeah... As I said before, Deathly Hallows essentially means Dead Saints. I think the title is referring to bottled memories of Dumbledore and the Pensieve that I bet you he willed to Harry... Memories of his going back far and beyond, letting Harry know what he's been up to all this time. While He might be dead, I suspect Dumbledore will play just as large a part in the seventh book that he did in the sixth.

I also suspect something similar will happen with Sirius Black, or perhaps Dumbledore will share memories of Sirius... But the dead members of the Order of the Phoenix I almost gaurentee will play a large part in the defeat of Voldemort. They won't come back to life, or even come back as ghosts, they will somehow fight, helping Harry, before they go back into the Light for the last time.
 
Plus, you know, he'll have portraits to walk around in.

If any of the teachers give Harry a hard time next year I'll be pissed. This kid deserves a break from everyone and I'm sick of reading about people giving him **** and no one standing up for him. Every unfair detention or missed Quidditch game or whatever and Dumbledore never put a stop to it? That's my least favorite part of the books.

Wow, no, I think you're right about all that. Cool.

Thanks, DSF. :D

I thought he wasn't even going to go to school in the next book?

I assume he'll end up there since the series is about his career in Hogwarts and it's numbered according to his year in school.

7 years to graduate Hogwarts, 7 books. . .

I'm pretty sure he'll return one way or the other, but I doubt he's going to be going back as a normal student.

Book 7 comes out in the middle of my ****ing exams. Which means I'll have to completely ignore it for about a week, while trying to avoid spoilers, and having to concentrate on studying... I'll probably have to withdraw from society altogether.
