SPOILERS Harry Potter: Deathly Hallows SPOILERS

[Newc]

Don't read if you don't want to know.









I found what is alleged to be a copy of the book online, and given the size and style, I'd say it's either genuine or the work of a very dedicated faker.

At any rate, Harry, Ron, and Hermione live. Bummer.

Voldemort dies finally, while fighting with Harry. Snape gets killed by Voldemort.

Malfoy lives. Bummer. I was hoping the little prick and his prick parents would be slaughtered. Stuck-up pricks.

Harry marries Ron's little sister, Ron and Hermione marry each other, and the book ends 19 years after the final fight with everyone sending their kids off to Hogwarts for the first time.

Harry gets possession of the Elder Wand.

Lots of characters die on both sides, though not many of them were prominent in the movies (i.e. all/one/some of Ron's older brothers, etc - I didn't read the whole thing).

Anyway, that's it. How underwhelming.

[rjohnstone]

Very boring.
I hate predictable endings.

[Newc]

Really. I was expecting a "typically English" ending where the main hero dies and it's all very dark and final.

I guess when you're writing children's books it's ok to fill it with despair and traditional boarding schools and beloved elders dying, but the Big Hero is immortal.

It can't be a proper private school as the older boys aren't fagging the younger ones.

Or buggering them.


The Americans are making the final Harry Potter film. They win, single-handedly, apparently.

[Newc]

If it's based on D.H., then yeah, it'll be a landslide victory. I was reading more of the book prior to the final battle and there's a huge "everybody in" fight and then the mano-a-mano between Potter and Voldemort, some dialog, and then a bit more dialog, and then a lot of staring and posing, and then Voldemort's own blast kills him.

Nobody dies during the "big fight". Most of them die about mid-ways through apparently, but a couple bite it in the beginning.

Haven't read the whole thing yet. There's a scene where Harry "dies" and meets Dumbledore in King's Cross train station (or the Afterlife's version of it) and finds out he and Voldemort are spiritually/physically connected, and as long as one lives, they both live, but since he "died" that link is now severed and he can return to kill Voldemort without having to actually die himself (as other internet rumors have stated).

Interesting reading for sure but I was kinda hoping for more prominent deaths.

Nothing like hearing fanboy geeks sobbing over the death of a fictional character.

Of course I like Glen Beck's take on it: The Washington Post is guarding the "big secret" about this book but thought nothing of blabbing about matters of National Security.

Aha, so he does get buggered then! If you want a cornholing from a dirty junkie rent boy, Kings Cross is the place to go.

Apparently.


JK Rowling does have exceedingly juicy tits though, superb for an old boiler.

and she's rich!

I have not read or seen any of those movies. I don't give a wildabeast's ass.

I knew a fat chick with Hogwarts on her Harry Twatter..

LOL

[sk8boardbob2]

I found a copy too and honestly it sucks. Some of the Fake fan versions were way better than this. However the whole plot with Snape and Dumbledore was sort of a surprise but it doesn't redeem the horrible ending.

I've seen the movies (not the newest one yet). IMO, they're better than Lord of the Rings.

Anyone remember Cliff's Notes? I read one Potter book and she wastes about 400 pages per book.
