Harry Potter Book 7 *Contains Spoilers*

Thats very interesting, I haven't heard those, and I've been hunting Mugglenet and leaky for the last couple years or so and haven't come across that interview yet. I'm not saying it didnt happen, but if you could find the interview, please PM me with a link or post it.

PS Yeah, but only two people that were big characters have died really so far. Unless you count Cedric.
 
R.A.B is Regulus Black, isn't it? I thought I heard that was a fact.

Before I was an NF'r, I was a fully devoted HP fanatic. :D


I agree with echoscot, I don't think Dumbledore is coming back, and personally ( though I love old Dumbledore) I don't think he should.

Dumbledore was the only thing protecting Harry, so naturally, with Dumbledore gone, Harry has to become much stronger to defend himself, and his friends. And the stronger he gets, the more likely he'll be able to destroy Voldemort.
 
That is another good point.

New question though: JK said that she has changed the last chapter that she had written a long time ago in a vault. 2 people originally died, now one of those two is not. Now my question is who do you think the original two is, and then if you can come up with it, who do you think is living now?

That's a very good question.

I always knew Dumbledore would die eventually, So I'm quite sure he was one of the original two. However, the second is quite a toss up. It's possible that it May be Severus Snape, or even Harry himself.
Perhaps she didn't orginally plan on Severus killing Dumbledore, and maybe, Severus was actually supposed to die in Dumbledore's place. I mean, think about it. We always knew Snape was bad, but did you expect him to kill Dumbledore in cold blood? I think not. But who knows really, but J.K.R herself.
 
i've never seen the actual interview saying Dumbledore won't return either. I've seen the one saying Sirius won't come back though. I do think there is a whole lot more to Snape than meets the eye though. And as far as the last chapter bit, I have no idea for sure but I'd put money on Harry and Snape with Harry living. Atlthough it could be Neville. I think he'll be a lot more important in this last book.

I agree with you on both the Neville and the Snape points.
But I'm too tired to explain why. :)
 
Yeah, I like how they are bringing in Neville more and more. I'm curious though, he comes from what they would consider good blood, being both his parents were aurors. Now is it the lack of true parents that has rendered Neville the way he is? I'm just a little surprised he is not better at DADA. Though he did show some major improvement in OOTP. I've always been curious about that.

You know, I think Neville's apparent weakness might actually HELP Harry in some way...I'm not completely sure how, But I have a feeling.
 
I don't know if anyone in this thread have heard it too,but J.K Rowling said in some kind of interview that at least two characters will die in the 7th book.She didn't mention if she spoke about good or evil characters,though.So..which characters do you guys think she was talking about?

That is interesting. I think all of us assume that Voldemort will die. So would he factor in that count or not? I'm guessing no, but wouldn't that be quite the trick right there. Lead us to believe that only one of the good will die, when in fact none do (major characters of course, or maybe not).

Yeah,that is really interesting!Voldemort will die,most likely.I mean,how would the end be if he survived? NOT GOOD.But who will be the other one? I really hope it's not Harry!

there are so many possibilities of people who might die its crazy
so do you think JKR was initially planning to kill Harry, or now possibly she has decided to kill him?

Also about the Neville thing- I think he's always been able to do it, but living with his strict grandmother, he doesn't have much self-esteem nor does he believe in his own abilities, and that is keeping him back more than anything. But the past two books have shown that Neville is trusting himself more and getting braver- so I think he'll definitely have a significant part in the final book.
 
Exactly. I think Neville's talent has always been there but he's had no one to believe in him or think he's any good. Harry on the other hand was famous and believed in from the moment he set foot in Diagon Alley. Yes, he's had difficulty with some people but Harry has always had people behind him. Neville hasn't. But lately he's been learning that maybe his family isn't so right and a wizard is what he makes of himself not who he's born as. Besides, as the quote above me says, Its not our abilities its our choices. Neville makes good choices.
 
Well my suspicions do seem to be comming true. J.K Rowling did annouce today that she is killing off two of her characters and the one of them could possibly be Harry. If you want to see the video go to MSN and find it. It was during the Today show where I orignally saw it.
 
She's said for ages on her website tha more people are going to die and its hardly surprising that she leaves the option of Harry open. Its a huge debate so she's not going to confirm or deny that one. Keeps people on the edge of their seats.
 
I think she meant that two main characters have died as she was writing, that she did not originally plan to die. At least that is what I deduced from watching the interview live on the Richard and Judy show.
So I mean I think that can't be Harry or Voldemort including in that because she has not yet finished the book and she said she will have to change the last chapter that she has had written for some time...
So I think the 2 characters she was refering to were main characters that everyone loves but not Harry or Voldemort because I can't see either of them dying three quarters of the way through the book or even halfway through the book as Jo isn't finished writing yet.

I can see Ginny and Snape dying as well.

Yeah, JKR said on a news segment last night (2 minutes long--i mean, give England's richest woman--yes, she is!--a bit more time!) that she was planning on 2 characters dying, but she said "Your eyes will see it before your ears hear it." (meaning we will read it before anything is said). she also said the last chapter was written a while ago...
also, (I've known this for a bit) the last word in the book is (according to JKR) "Scar"...:) wonder what that means?

I've also heard that since she has rewritten the final chapter, that the last word may no longer be 'scar'. as for what it means, i have no idea :D could be anything really- I don't even know if its anything significant. just have to wait and find out.
 
Scar could have something to do with Harry's or it could be a new one. Maybe Voldemort will get a scar. I really do not know. I'm just keeping my mind open because in a world of magic, anything is possible.
