Harry Potter Discussion (spoilers)

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.

Hey, if it weren't for The Simpsons I would've been able to avoid Book 6 spoilers altogether for two years.

I read HBP as quick as I could. A couple of days later, "Snape Killed Dumbledore" broke out across the school.
 
Joe Kalicki said:
Well, that's true, you're still in school.

My social circles aren't exactly the Harry Potter type.

Plus, I don't see anybody anyway.

I'll PM you with the spoilers so you feel warm inside.

Dear Joe,

The Gandalf that dies isn't the real Gandalf, it's just an alternate cyborg clone that the real Gandalf has prepared in such an emergency.

P.S. Snape is a goat.

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.

Because Harry is already considered a celebrity, and Dumbledore knew that it would be unethical to treat him differently than other students. I think the point from the beginning is that Harry receives no special treatment.

Make sure to label it "FREE PR0N 4 U!!!111" so you know he'll open it.

Who knew that Voldemort could jam on the guitar like that?

It's not special treatment when he's being treated unfairly. When he gets punished for telling the truth about Voldemort, or defending himself against Malfoy or for everything Snape ever punished him for.

Pfff... whaddya think "Dance Magic Dance" is about? A labyrinth? Pah.

SPOILERS OMG:

The climax of "Deathly Hallows" is a guitar solo-off between Voldemort and Harry. As it turns out, Harry has been secretly practicing his skills with the axe, knowing it to be a more powerful instrument of magic than the wand. Just as Harry is hitting a killer riff, his pick breaks. That's when Snape reveals that he is still working for the side of good and tosses Harry his father's magical pick, allowing Harry to bust out a solo that brings tears to Slash himself! (He makes a surprise cameo) The sheer awesomeness makes Voldemort's head explode. Everyone rejoices all the girls scream and Harry goes on a world tour where he rocks the Muggles with his guitar wizardry.

THE END

See, even if they come out in defense of Harry, it would be miscontrued by everyone (especially those who'd treated him badly) as special treatment.

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.

He was definitely supposed to. If you remember, Hagrid talks to Harry about Dumbledore and Snape arguing constantly. He caught Snape telling Dumbledore that he took too much for granted.

SO! When Snape shows up, Dumbledore is surprised that he did what he asked. He pleads for Snape to kill him, like DSF said. Snape likely thought that Harry wasn't powerful enough to take Voldemort down, but in the end, decided to trust Dumbledore.

I also guarantee you that Dumbledore and Snape did an Unbreakable Vow and that's why he trusted Snape so much.

Yeah, but so what? The poor kid's going through hell so they could keep up appearances?

Anyway, I just hate reading all that stuff. Situations where a few simple words would resolve everything. And they're a constant in the books. Like, every chapter.
 
Umbridge better get some ****ing comeuppance at the end of this one.

She was going to use the ******* Cruciatus curse on Harry, and they can easily prove it(anyone there could testify under Veritaserum).

I was disappointed at the end of the fifth book that she wasn't taken away to Azkaban in chains. It would've been the perfect setup for the crumbling Ministry in Half-Blood, a Ministry-Enstated official put in to properly run the children is sent to Azkaban for life after less than a year, while all the other lies come forward.

When Harry was talking to Scrimgeour at the Burrow, shortly before the "Dumbledore's man" business, he should've said right there "You want my help? Before I even consider anything, Dolores Umbridge is out. Period. Then we might talk".

Grr.

I wonder if I have enough time to reread Sorcerer's Stone before Deathly Hallows. I think it would be kinda cool to do.

It should only take a day or two.

Also, Harry Potter and Sex, Drugs, and Rock and Roll would be awesome as a spin-off 8th book.

Yes. I'm thinking that after my proposed finale, Rowling should launch a series of ten new books that chronicle Harry's rise to fame as a rock superstar and how his hardcore addiction to pixie-dust destroys his career.

She could fill them with all kinds of sex and drugs. And they could be called "The Wizard".
