Book 7 questions

So we still wait in great anticipation for the 7th and final book. I am sure that all of us are hoping that Jo changes her mind to write a couple more books. Even if they are a bunch of filler books for the vast amount of new subjects we’ve been introduced to in all of the books thus far. I would love to see a book series on Hogwarts – The classes of the other. Something that could go into all of the other teachers and their classes in a lot more detail. I am with Hermione when she says “History of magic wouldn’t be so boring if you’d pay attention” (to Ron & Harry). I think that there could be a great deal of course (book) work written up on the subject. I am amazed at all of the classes and lessons that she has already come up with. Think about it in the large sense. They have on average anywhere from 8-12 classes per school year. It also seems that all of their workloads increase as they get further along in their schooling. So at a minimum Jo has written school schedules and classes for at least 8 classes a year for 6 years. Do the math thinking that the only classes we usually hear about are the ones that the main characters are taking. So there is definately a good amount of unwritten topic on classes that could come up in the after book 7 time.

We’ve all read on Mugglenet the various quesitons that will be answered in book 7, and who everyone thinks is going to be the person to die. Obviously it has to be either Harry or Voldemort because of what the prophecy said in book 5. “Neither” can truely live while the other one isn’t dead or something like that….the words slip my mind right now. So we know it’s going to be one of them, but are there going to be more? I personally think that there will be some cool side switches in book 7. I really anticipate seeing what Malfoy does now that he’s a deatheater. Will he team up with his father Lucious? Will his father make him stay out and away to keep out of trouble? Although heartless Lucious is, he shows a sincere care for his son malfoy’s welfare. I am curious to see also if there is someone else from the Order of the Phoenix that will end up with some great illness. Father Weasley seems to be a prime canidate for that. He is always comming down with something or another. I had thought for a while that Aunt Petunia would’ve performed some magic in the right moment to save herself, harry, or someone in need. However, Jo has relinquished that possibility in her rumors section of her site. http://www.jkrowling.com/textonly/en/rumours.cfm

There are a bunch of things that I hadn’t even thought of on the sight. Some of them didn’t even make any sense, but some were right along with the same thinking that I’ve been doing. It’s a good site to visit. Of course who wouldn’t go right to the “source” when wondering about viability in a novel.

In anticipation

I’ve found myself needing a replacement for the film that I was originally anticipating to come out sometime 2006 winter season. So I am going through the OOTP and HBP books again. I’ve just finished with the OOTP for the fourth time and I’ve been thinking about some parts I can’t wait to see on the big screen. My favorite part from the book that I am waiting for is the part where the Weasley twins (Fred and George) have conjured up the swap in the main hall right outside of the Great Hall. It’s the perfect part for anyone who has ever had a rebelious side to anything. Professor Umbridge is going around with her evil plots to rid dumbledore and anyone that is, or appears against the ministry of magic and Fudge. That will be a great scene in the movie.

A very warm welcome…

This is a blog that I decided to start to understand more about the blogging phenomenon that has grasped a hold of the world. I hope to discuss and express my thoughts and feelings about the truely magnificant Harry Potter series of novels by J.K. Rowling. What a fascinating series of books that are unlike anything that we have ever read. There are so many levels of discussion that are possible from the history of the sorting hat and it’s existance down to the mysterious horcluxes. I hope to have some deep level discussion on advanced wizarding subjects and some discussion on where the 7th and final book will take us. Stay tunned for my “thoughts of the wizarding world” and who knows, it might spark a thought of your own.
