    HARRY POTTER & THE DEATHLY HALLOWS - thoughts (SPOILERS!!)

    Hagrid was Harry's first introduction to the Wizarding world, so maybe that's why she felt she just couldn't? Or maybe it was because so many people assumed it would be him (apparently he was the 'red' alchemical death or something predicted. The black and white deaths were correct, red's next...

    HARRY POTTER & THE DEATHLY HALLOWS - thoughts (SPOILERS!!)

    I think there were quite a few Imperiused people out there, cos it says that 'people up and down the country' came out of it, and probably a few were scared and intimidated into it under their Blood Status, I mean, Half Bloods could have been wondering whether they'll be the next to go and could...

    HARRY POTTER & THE DEATHLY HALLOWS - thoughts (SPOILERS!!)

    Just add that to the list. Maybe she left everything out so it's in Hogwarts: A History?

    HARRY POTTER & THE DEATHLY HALLOWS - thoughts (SPOILERS!!)

    yeah. So much for 'Harry gets a new pet' = Fawkes. Seriously, I think JK made up some of her 'hints' to inspire people to write fake spoilers that go nowhere near the truth.

    HARRY POTTER & THE DEATHLY HALLOWS - thoughts (SPOILERS!!)

    I think the Muggle Studies professor was edited out of the other books, a name very similar was reported to be that teacher, think it was in one of JK's interviews or notebooks or some such, on the Lexicon anyway. Mixed feelings about Hedwig's death. I always thought she'd do a Fawkes and...

    HARRY POTTER & THE DEATHLY HALLOWS - thoughts (SPOILERS!!)

    A lot of what JK said would be in the book must have been edited out. What Dudley saw/felt with the Dementors. (Hafta say was a good gesture by him, seemed like it didn't fit in right though). The person who does Magic late in life The importance of Lily's eyes. At least we got more of DD's...

    HARRY POTTER & THE DEATHLY HALLOWS - thoughts (SPOILERS!!)

    I guess the only way to explain around it would be to argue that how many people have heard Parseltongue in order to attempt copying it. I mean, it is a language after all.

    Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix

    Wizarding Wireless Network. I reckon it gave a nice touch to the movie, some authenticity, as well as the newspapars and all that.

    Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix

    All Emma can do is wiggle and waggle her eyebrows and speak loud, if you ask me, but at least she's improving. Maybe she'll be almost Hermione by the 7th movie. I would have to say Rupert's the better child actor, he's more subtle and real, with the exception of a few scenes, such as 'anyone...

    Chris Benoit killed himself, his wife and son!

    And now there's an Aussie connection with the whole Wiki thing. Heard somewhere that the boy had a minor retardation? How could he cope for a day knowing his mum's dead?

    When 'shopping' at fashion clothing stores....

    Yeah, I hate it when parents tell their kids "just leave it". I always go "sorry, is this yours? You can't just leave it here." Or some kid the other day was eating Maccas chips, dropped a few when I was about two metres away, and pushed it under the table while looking at me. Her mum told her...

    When 'shopping' at fashion clothing stores....

    If there is a sign please fucking read it. Do not ignore me asking "are you alright" or "would you like to try those on" and walk right into the changeroom and then get snooty when I follow you in (not into the cubicle where you get changed, but the hallway outside it) and ask loudly "excuse me...

    Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows - 21 July 2007 (NO SPOILERS)

    is there actually something called "the Light"? What do you think about Slughorn as a Slytherin portrayed differently? Sure, he shows the ambition and his networking for lack of a better word atypical, but he also abandons bias. Do you think Pettgrew's life debt will help in the final battle...

    Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows - 21 July 2007 (NO SPOILERS)

    I try not to jump to conclusions as to what J.K. will do concerning major plots -- she has done both glaringly obvious (general 'hero' epic stuff such as death of mentor) and completely random. Therefore, the only thing I am assuming is RAB stands for Regulus Arcturus Black (thats all I have...

    What was the first CD you bought?

    Run DMC vs Jason Nevins -- 'It's like that'

    Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows - 21 July 2007 (NO SPOILERS)

    The letters RAB have been chnged in various translations to coincide with the initial of Sirius' last name. That's good enough for me until the book comes out. I don't get what you mean about 'no they can't'. I never said they could tell, just that they would know, how is that going against...

    Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows - 21 July 2007 (NO SPOILERS)

    You know, how awesome would it be to be one of the translators or illustrators for HP? They'd be some of the very few people who have RAB = Reg Black confirmed first, and Grandpre's read the whole book already.... :(

    Getting from Brisbane to Gold Coast!

    Yeah, I agree with Dumsum. It might be a bit exxy from the airport though, seeing as part of the track is a private line. That'll get you to Nerang, and there are buses to Surfers from there.

    Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows - 21 July 2007 (NO SPOILERS)

    But the last word is apparently still 'scar', so it'd have to be something like: eleven year old Harry wakes up in cupboard under the stairs, and thinks 'hey, that's the best dream I've ever had where I imagine all sorts of cool things about how I got my scar.'
