James, Kori and I are exhausted. We went to see a midnight showing of 'Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix' and I didn't go to bed until 3 a.m. If you haven't seen it yet, PLEASE PLEASE go see it! This was my favorite 'Potter' movie so far and I even forgive them for not sticking closely to the book. I need to get some sleep and then I'm gonna have to see it again.
Seeing the 5th movie is getting me all excited for the release of the 7th book! James, Kori and I (can you tell we're the resident 'Harry Potter' nerds at RED?) are all ready to hit the bookstore at midnight on the 20th to pick up our reserved copies. What do you guys think is going to happen? Here are my predictions:
begin geek transmission /
1. Someone will mention how Harry looks like his father but has his mother's eyes.
2. Neville Longbottom will bumble along and then commit some huge act of heroics.
3. Hermione & Ron will get together (duh, duh, double duh). Snogging ahead!
4. It'll be revealed that at the end of Book 6, Dumbledore took the draught of living death which Snape gave him and he's actually still alive and will pop up at the last moment and possibly save the day, yay yay! (Do you kids know what a Deus Ex Machina is? Look it up.) EDIT: OK, JKR confirmed that he's really dead, but are we really gonna listen to HER, the creator and writer and person who knows everything? ...Oh.
5. Ginny will flirt Harry into submission. Good Harry. Niiiiice Harry.
6. Snape is actually good, but someone else is bad, like Hagrid, maybe. (I really really hate Hagrid. It's the dialect or the beard or the shack or the animals, something though.)
7. Trelawney will make more bad predictions. And possibly one more good one. Possibly.
8. Harry's parents will appear somehow.
9. Harry's scar will be the final Horcrux.
10. R.A.B. is Sirius' brother. Yes, yes, we've all already figured that out.
11. Voldemort will be vanquished. Take THAT, Satanic evil dark lord of all that is bad.
12. My personal jury's still out on whether Harry lives or dies, but I kind of think he'll live and become either an auror or the new Defense Against the Dark Arts teacher at Hogwarts. For more than one year. Unless JKR decides to write a Book 8 after all.
13. For some reason, Harry has never, ever thought to ask about any other family. Will we, like, EVER find out anything about Harry's wizard grandparents and what their story is? My prediction: No.
/ end geek transmission
Thank you! I thought I was the only one who hated Hagrid! Yay I'm not alone! I think you should bet money on that first prediction. You'd win money. Do it to someone who has like never read the books haha. But I think your third prediction is wrong. Harry and Hermione (:, yes I'm delusional. Your Harry's scar thing sounds good. I hadn't thought of that. Oh yaaaa cuz when he got hit with the spell, for all we know Voldie put some of him in Harry. Harry better live. Because if he doesn't, him and Hermione won't have cute little kids!!! And your last one, I don't even think JKR thought about that....maybe in the 7th book they'll mention it. But in every book they say we'll learn a lot about Lily.....and we never really learn that much. You should put that!
14. JKR's gonna say we're gonna learn a whole lot about Lily and we don't learn so much.
Yes, Dumbledore is dead and Hagrid is good (how can you not love the guy?). I don't think Harry will die simply because fans would be outraged and the book would be known as a publicity stunt even though it is not. I don't wish death on Harry but that would be a really new and spectacular way to end the books. I might even cry! Yes, Ginny and Harry will get together, even if I don't like it. Voldemort will die, yes, and possibly Snape too, after saving Harry of course. And possibly, Ron or Hermione will get near death and the other will "express their true feelings." And then they'll live. If you go to KansasCity.com and put in Harry Potter contest in the search you can see the last sentence, ending in "scar," that people have sent in.
Jamie
I pretty much agree except I don't think Harry's scar is a horcrux, but who knows? Anything's possible.
Yeah, i TOTALLY agree with your predictions. They're all just what i wuz thinking, and more! I really liked numbers 2,4,8, and most of ALL 9! To tell ya tha truth, i had never thought of that! it got me excited at the idea-nice job! lol
The 5th movie wuz really awsome! I thought it followed the book pretty well. I mean, the book is long enough, and to put almost all of it in a "no-longer-than-3hr movie" wuz pretty cool on their part! Afterwards, when we(me and my family) were all driving home, we couldn't help but discuss the differences, what the book had and the movie didn't :
1. Movie-they didnt mention quidditch at all.
2. Ron and Hermione didnt become Prefects, like in the book.
3. Cho told about the secret D.A, instead of her friend "Marietta", or whatever her name is-in the book.
4. And lastly, i dont recall Professor Umbridge and her "squad"(lol) breaking into the room in tha book. I think they just caught them or something.
Besides all that,(which isn't really that much) i thought it was a really really great movie! During the middle, i just wanted to jump in tha screen and slap Umbridge!!!-that takes some good acting-i wish i could tell her that!lol
1) J.K. Rowling already said that one of the characters is going to be a teacher but its not going to be Harry.
2) HAGRID IS SO NOT BAD!!!!!!!!! YOU MUST BE OUT OF YOUR MIND!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! WHAT THE HELL WERE YOU THINKING???

I
Love The Harry Books!!! they are the best1!
Harry Lives and Has Tons of Potter babys with Ginny!
Oh...
And My Opinion Snape is Evil! Very EVIL!
draco malfoy will turn good
i think that there will be some big magical conection between petunia dursley and harry. I think that she was sent to school and was exspelle or dropped out, that is why she is so bitter to harry and about her sister. Oh, and dudley is a scwibe or just didn't get the magic gene. amber*
the scar being a horcrux doesn't make sense because why would Voldemort attempt to kill Harry? Horcruxes are suppose to help keep Voldemort alive. He kills Harry, another part of Voldemort dies. Nice try though. [=
Also, the R.A.B. being Sirius relative would make sense. Because of the last initial. I never thought about that.
I completely agree w/ you about 1-3, those seem realistic enough. And 5 is obvious! But instead of Dumbledore really being alive (though JKR said he was dead), I think he was reborn as a child somewhere (like a phoenix) and there will be another series about him growing up as a kid. (Send that to JKR!) And I think Harry's scar will be a Horcrux or his wand. But I also think he'll lose his magical power and become a Muggle, then Ron or Hermoine will have to wipe his mind of all the magic and stuff he knows. But then he'll become the Minister and Ron will be Minister of Magic and then he'll remember anything. And I think Snape will kill Voldemort, but Bellatrix will kill him for killing Voldemort. Finally, I think Cho's gonna try to get back together with Harry, but he's gonna ignore her (take THAT Cho Chang!). But then Ginny will tell him that she can't be with a Half Blood and he and Cho will live happily ever after... till he loses his magic that is! IDK if these are true, but hey this is our last shot to do this! Boo-hoo!

i totally loved the movie! i, too, rushed to the theaters at ten thirty and awaited the premiere of HP5! i must say, it was my least favorite book, but my absolute FAVORITE movie! i have no problem forgiving them for the small alterations. although i am not complaining too badly about the whole prefect situation. the story had enough of a depressing tone anyway. call me a dork, but i just about cried when sirius died. (in both the book and the movie). i have come to believe that along with Voldemort, Ron and/or Hermoine will also perish. if you haven't noticed, JK has slowly killed off everyone that cared about harry. 1)parents-dead beats from the beginning. 2.) in the fifth book, Hagrid is rarely seen. 3.) Sirius is obvisouly a gonner. 4.) right when dumbledore let it slip that he truly cared for Harry- there he goes, ava kedavra and he's dead.
on another note, i thought the actors of the movie did a superb job. i wanted to reach out and give that freaky bellatrix a peice of mind, (and my fist). she was freaky as all get out. just looking at her gave me an uncomfortable sensation. and dear old umbridge...well, must i say more? this is getting long, so i'm not going to take your job in writing my own blog here. lol. harry potter rocks! i can't wait for the book! we'll be waiting!
1) Voldemort has more than 7 Horcruxes. The 6th book says that you get a Horcrux by commiting murder. Well Voldemort has killed at least 4 people since the series began. That means 4 more Horcruxes. Plus the people on the bridge in the 6th book. So Voldemort never will die. But it also says he had to have had the intention of making a Horcrux, so who knows.
2) Professor Trelawney will die b/c Voldemort finds out about the prediction.
3) Snape will kill Fang b/c he missed Hagrid and Hagrid will slaughter him.
4) Hogwarts is gonna open, but Harry, Ron and Hermoine will search for the Horcruxes. then the D.A. will have a huge battle with Voldemort's troops and will win! YAY! Whoo!... w/e...
5) This will be the last Harry Potter book ppl make predictions for.
i think dumbledore is stone cold dead for sure, but maybe his spirt is somehow like connected to fawks???Anyway i think if harry does live he will either be headmaster at hogwarts, or an auror. i totally agree with the whole ron hermoine thing,if harry does die he will definatly give all his stuff to ron or the weaslys. I think luna and neville might end up together too. I think maybe also that either harry ron and hermonie will get killed together or just harry and ginny. Cause its more about his abillity to love then his scare isnt it?? yae well if harry does dir it kinda would be a good end though cause he would be with his family, and siris and doumbledore. and the book does have people say that those who love you never really leave you so that would be a sad but good end to the whole sha bang!
sincerly Dasquid!!!
Ok first of all the movie was awsome for what is the longest book i think... but the differences were to much like no quidditch and Ron and Hermione not being prefects. But Umbridge(toad lady) never broke into the room of requirement they all got caught running from her but its a movie and it was not on pin point. I think in the 7th book Harry will have to find a way to travel inside him to destroy the horcurx and will then look around the school. I think Harry will become new head master (if he lives of course) of hogwarts and will go down as the greatest wizard in history. i think ron or hermione will die with voldomort (sorry 4 all the spelling mistakes) but by accident from sirius' ghost but that is my thoughts so DEAL WITH IT!
Hi Cari! I am total Harry Potter Freak- (I don't care if it's one of RED's 20 Dorkiest Hobbies =) ) and I'm a proud vegetarian just like you! No butchered animals and cut of limbs on MY plate!
So, my point here is-- YOU ROCK!
The best book in my opinion is Milkweed I think is by Jerry Spinelli
So sad it will break your heart but totally interesting, although a little bit gruesome.
But I got an A+ on a writing paper I had to do about Nazi concentration camps from it sooo......
Cari you have to read it.

I still haven't seen HP5, but I want to so much! It sounds quite disappointing, though. How could they ignore Quidditch, or the Ron and Hermione prefect thing? Apparently they didn't think it was that important to the plot of the movie. No different than forgetting Hermione's house elf equal treatment thing in HP4. As for the last book... I think that all who is good will stay good and all who is bad will stay bad. Period. I mean, come on! Didn't Snape kill Dumbledore? How could anyone think he is good after pulling that? I do think Ginny and Harry will stay together, and that Ron and Hermione will end up dating. All of their arguing is just a coverup. Harry will end up killing Voldemort and destroying the Horcruxes, and Neville will have revenge on Bellatrix Lestrange. Sirius will also end up not really being dead and save Harry at the last moment. Also, the Dark Side will lose the war, and Harry will become an Auror! Yay!
This is what i think will happen in the 7th book:
1. Dumbledore will come back somehow- because if he was dead wouldnt his picture show up in his office just like all the other headmasters and his face didnt show up. so either he is like alive/dead at the same time then that would explain it
2. Ron's family is secretly Harry's twice removed aunt/ uncle
3. Ginny and Harry will get back together and Ron and Hermione will end up together- SNOGGING ALERT
4. I really dont think Harry's scar is a Horcrux, because it wouldnt make sense that Voldemort would want to kill him
5. There could be a chance that Neville and Luna will end up together, but to tell you the truth i really dont think Neville will die!!!! He could kill Belatrix, save his family- and be called a hero.
6. I am hoping that evil snape will die!!!!!!!!! And i really think Draco will turn good and realizes his mistakes
7. I really dont know if Harry will die, it could be a possible ending to end the whole story of Harry Potter, but i also think, to go through not being killed by Voldemort in the first place and going through 7 books to kill him, it wouldnt make sense for him to die
********************************************************************
Yeah, well, i loved the movie a lot, and i liked that it was kinda creepy. but they took out a bunch of stuff. like quidditch, and harry being quidditch CAPTAIN! oh, and Ron and Hermione being prefects. And the cool coins hermione creates. But it was really good. Can't wait til the seventh book!

Harry is a horcrux whether or not it's his scar or not,
Harry will die, destroying the horcrux. Dumbledore is dead, sorry no doubt about it, but Dumbledore has ordered Snape to kill him to mantain Snape's disguise. Neville will return to Hogwarts as DADA teacher. I agree that Harry will not find out about further family, and Ron and Hermione will get toghether. live in a big ramshackkle house and have too many kids including a set of twins. Ron wil get a crummy job at the ministry of magic. Ginny will not flirt Harry into submission though, because Harry will be dead and I just don'y think Ginny's that sort of a girl. Ginny will become an Auror.
RAB is Regulas Black(yeah Duh) Slyterin's locket was at 12 Grimuld Place, (Order of the Phoniex, cleaning out the cabniet in the drawing room, "heavy locket that no one could open") Mundungus Flethcher has sold it to God-Knows Who (the moviemakers will regret leaving that out). Grawmp will save someones life, Hermione? or should I say Hermy? Hagrid is GOOD!!
Malfoy will kill Voldemort and his father. Harry will kill Bellatrix Leastrange
Sirius is alive, the curse Leastrange hit him with was a stunning spell, not Avada Kadavra( another stupid movie blunder) the apparent cause of death is his fall through the veiled arch, which we have no reason to believe was fatal, another unlikely, but still possible option is that sirius had a horcrux.
By the way the HP5 movie was horrible, it was too short and left out too many important things. it nevr mentioned Quidditch, Ron and Hermione as Prefects, Hagrid being put on probation, or Percy.
I just don't see how you can call yourself a Harry Potter nerd if you liked the HP5 movie.
Sorry
i think in HP7, Hogwarts will reopen and Harry, Ron and Hermione suddenly realise one schoolday that Hedwig is missing. So they go searching only to find Hedwig's cage shattered outside the forest. So they go hiking through the forest, when suddenly they here a voice and duck behind a bush. In a hollow in front of them, Hedwig sits on a branch, turned the other way. Harry reaches out to him, only for Hedwig to begin morphing. Larger, and larger into some blue slimy amphibian flat nose that Harry knows all to well. Hedwig is Voldemort!!!!!!!! Then suddenly a group of death eaters emerges from the darkness around Voldemort and he begins speaking about the attack against the minister when he comes to visit Hogwarts. The trio desperately runs back to the school just in time to see the minister arriving in his flying carriage. They run towards to him, only to be blown to the ground by a group of Death eaters sprinting from the forest. They star flocking towards the minister, blasting spells in every direction. Some run into the school and begin killing students and teachers alike. Then suddenly, Voldemort emerges and screams avada kevendra! at the minster. Bye Bye minister! then suddenly, Harry notices a loose peice of dirt in the ground. he curiously tugs it out to reveal a box. he pulls open the box to reveal, GASP!!! All the remaining Horcruxs!!! And right when Harry is about to destroy them, Bellatrix Lestrange tackles Hermione out of no where and threatens to kill her if Harry destroys the Horcruxs. GASP!!!! What will happen?!?!? read, Harry Potter and the deathly hollows to find out!!!!!
First of all, if you people really are HP fans and have truly read all the books thouroughly, you should be able to spell names. And various words that we learn in 2nd grade.
Now, concerning predictions:
*Dumbledore is dead. JKR said so. I think we'll get advice and what-not from stuff like his headmaster portrait in his office and Fawkes.
*Luna and Neville do NOT get together. Again, JKR confirmed this.
*Harry will NOT teach at Hogwarts or become headmaster.
*Many people are forgetting this, but Peter Pettigrew (Wormtail) owes Harry his life and that will definitely come into play.
*Ginny will absolutely play a HUGE role in this book, (or at least she should.)
*Hermione and Ron will get together, FINALLY! They will totally save Harry's back on more than one occasion.
*Personally, I think that when on top of the tower, as Dumbledore sounded like he was pleading with Snape to save his life, I think it was the opposite; Dumbledore was reminding Snape of his duties to stay undercover so as to undermine Voldemort. Sorry if you don't agree.
*PETUNIA IS NOT A WITCH OR SQUIB. JKR totally said that she is not magical in any way.
I'll stop now because it appears that I'm trying to write the book.
p.s. 5th movie sucked. At least, it did if you tried to compare it to the book. Totally wrong. Even for those of us who HATE OOTP, the movie was worse.
I think that Hagrid and Ginny will die in the seventh book. I think Harry cares about them most(besides Ron and Hermione). I don't think that Dumbledore is truly dead, rather he will be reincarnated as a phoenix (Fawkes' song, the pillar of fire at his funeral, Harry thinking he sees a phoenix fly out of the flames). Harry's death is just too predictable, so he probably isn't a Horcrux. Voldemort had only one more Horcrux to make after he killed Harry, and it isn't likely that he was able to cast the spell to turn Harry into a Horcrux, because he lost all of his power. There are only 6 Horcruxes (plus one for Voldemort himself), regardless of how many people he killed. In the sixth book, when Riddle asked Slughorn about Horcruxes, he asked about making seven, because of the significance of seven(or something like that). Aunt Petunia will have a very important role in this book. Maybe even if she isn't magical, her love, no matter how little, for Harry will protect him in the end (she is his only living family). RAB is Regulus Black, and I think that he already destroyed the locket Horcrux. He said in his note to Voldemort that he would, and Voldemort probably doesn't know if any of the Horcruxes have been destroyed. So excited to figure it out!!
Ok.....
NO! If Luna dies, I will cry. And yeah, most likely her and Neville will live happyily ever after. Yeah, Ron and Hermonie. Hagrid? EVIL? Please, the guy cries when he has to send away a baby dragon that bit him all the time and such. Now, that cant be evil. As for the scar...I dont know, its possible..but, everyone I know thinks Harrys going to die, but, I dont know, maybe both of them will. As for Dumbledore, I still cant belive he died. I just dont find it possible. But for the Movie, they still dont have S.P.E.W in them, or Dobby doesnt come back ethier..and I love that dude! Peace!
I think a few things, I think Snape is as guilty as sin for one thing. Another is that Dumbledore is coming back in some way , shape or form but only when Harry really needs him. I absolutley think that Harry is going to survive. I know this because Steven King and John Irving went to J.K. and asked her not to kill Harry. I think that 2 relativley signifigant characters are going to die.
Can't wait to read it tonight .....
My brother and me have been arguing about what will happen in the 7th book this is what i think will and should happen...
1. I think that Harry HAS to be a herocrux because everyone is always saying that him and Voldemort have a "connection".
2. Harry is and will be killed.
3. Ron and Hermione will get together or maybe Ron is dying from getting attacked or something and Hermione tells him that she always loved him then they Snog... its going to happen.
4. Ginny will probably either not give up on Harry or she will treat him bad.
5. This has been bothering me, the whole profecy thing " Neither can live while the other survives" I think it simply means that Voldemort and Harry will both die.
6. I think that Hermione is the one that will go back to school and become a teacher... Maybe its Ron and he becomes really smart out of nowere.
7. Oh and I think that Molly and Aurthur Weasley will die because Voldy likes to kill any parent figure of Harry's.
I want to get the book so bad but my parents will probably not get me it so i will have to wait. But when i get my hands on that book i will read it in one day and probably cry if Harry dies. And if my favorite character Ron dies ooooooh i will be depressed.
First off, I've never thought that Harry was going to die. JK Rowling could never do that to her readers. I think that he is just going to have to give up his powers or something like that, so he becomes a Muggle. Hagrid is not bad at all... although I kind of think he dies or comes pretty close. R.A.B is pretty obvious that it is Regulus and didn't it say something about Kreacher liking him the most? Maybe Kreacher was holding onto the locket, since in the 5th book they found a locket that wouldn't open... with an S on it... I've already seen the movie. I was disappointed, but it was still my favorite movie. The part that I can't believe they cut out is the Quidditch, I mean how could they? That was one of Harry's best skills. Ginny and Harry will get married, have kids.
I do agree that Neville will have some type of heroic act and that he gets together with Luna. Then I think that Neville becomes the Herbology teacher. He was just so good at that. Harry and Ron become Aurors. No idea what Hermione will do. But Ron and her will end up together. It is not Harry and Hermione people!! Then I think that your first prediction is obvious.. and I have a feeling that Snape isn't bad, but I hate him anyways.
Okay, can't wait to see the movie for the thrid time :D
And read the book.
Woo!!!
