Hmmm, and Harry had a broken wand at one point. Considering J.K.'s rather obvious comparison of wands to, er, wands (on page 415) ... I wonder if there's some deeper meaning to be found in Harry and Ron's damaged wands.
Ok, the locket. Er, that wasn't a Slytherin House thing, was it? Or was it?
Another question:
A lot of folks have bemoaned that the Prophesy as revealed in the MOVIE version of Order of the Phoenix is only half of it, and not sufficient to understand what's going on. So my question is: What part of the prophesy unstated in the movie was necessary to the understanding of Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows?
Off the top of my head, I can't think of any. I think the only part that proved relevant to the story was that neither Harry nor Volemort could live while the other survived. What else was there in the prophesy, and did any of the parts revealed in the OotP book (but not the movie) play out in the conclusion of the epic story??
