Default The final Harry Potter

The final book will be released July 21. I'm so excited!

My prediction is that Voldemort will kill Harry Potter but Neville Longbottom will end Voldemort. This way Harry dies, so Rowling won't feel pressured to continue the series, but the good will still win, because after all, it is a children's book. Plus, everyone loves to see an underdog triumph.

Neville? No it'll be Draco Malfoy. That way you tie in the theme of redemption and paying for the sins of the father and all that.
Actually, I have no idea.

I'm trying to figure out who all dies. I figure Hermione has to survive so she can marry either Harry or Ron.

Ron, for sure. There's a lot of sexual tension between those two.

With Harry getting naked these days, I think there will be a lot of sexual tension no matter what.

No, Ron and Draco will get naked, and Hermione will have Harry's love child. In an effort to stem the love-hate relationship between Ron and Draco, Harry step between Voldemort and Ron-Draco's love triangle, killing all four in the process with Hermione left to lead Hogworts and to rear their love child alone.

I still haven't read a single page of the series. Maybe I'll do the whole thing this summer, in one slacker-tacular week. I hear they are quick reads.

Voldemort will kill Ron, Harry and Hermione whilst they are engaged in a 3-way, thereby serving as a cautionary tale to kids about needing to keep their naughty bits to themselves.

I haven't read any of the books, and I have no intention of ever reading them. The bits and pieces of it that I've seen on TV just look silly. It amazes me that intelligent adults get into this stuff.

Default I've got a whacked out version...

I'm still not convinced that Dumbledor is actaully "deceased". Yes, I know there was the funeral, etc...but, it was too easy. He and Snape were "in on the ruse of killing off Dumbledor (else why didn't anyone try and kill off Snape as he was fleeing from the scene...he's in on the ruse with Dumbledor!). Anyway, Dumbledor was on to solving all of the 7 clues (horcruxes?) to actually killing off 'all' of Voldemort.

If Dumbledor is 'dead' then, Voldemort will actually be more bold, apt to make mistakes, come out full, in the open, etc. I believe Dumbledor is actually alive, waiting for V to come out in the open as Dumbledor was really his only nemesis that he was afraid of.

Harry goes out and receives help (from Dumbeldor) in solving the remaining horcruxes, and on the final one....I think Harry 'gets it' and dies.

But, in the final battle, I think Dumbledor to the surprise of all, arrives at the scene and kills Voldemort in the end.

Hermoine and Ron have little wizards and wizlets.

The end

I've not yet read a single page of these books and have no desire, but I would like to read the one that Ned Flanders read to his boys that ended with:

"and Harry Potter and all his little friends went to hell for practicing witchcraft. The end."
