Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows - Page 3

I'm number 15 on the list.....which means I'll probably have a copy waiting for me day of.

I think we bought more than that last time...

Keith Olbermann spent a full 8 minutes of his show last week detailing what he thought was the only logical conclusion to the series. Y'all know I couldn't easily care less about Harry Potter but I found it a compelling argument.

So I'm going to just assume he is right and leave it at that (fortunately for me Lani hasn't yet expressed any interest in seeing the next movie).

I saw that last week, as well. I thought it was pretty good, too.

As far as logical conclusion... I have a suspicion that Harry might be one of Voldemort's horcruxes.

blueerica · 07-03-2007, 02:33 PM

Interesting thought, Morrigoon. However, mustn't there be an incantation to go along with it? And if Harry is the horcrux, then by trying to kill him, is he trying to die?

Interesting thought. I wonder if a horcrux could be accidental.

Morrigoon · 07-03-2007, 03:36 PM

That's what I think. I think in trying to commit the act of killing Harry and failing, V. split himself again and left some of that in Harry - hence their "connection" and Harry's unusual power.

From Keith Olbermann:

Spoiler:

If you want to see his whole theory, you can view it here.

Cadaverous Pallor · 07-03-2007, 06:52 PM

Keith Olbermann didn't come up with that. Since the horcrux concept was introduced, fans everywhere have been saying that.

Keith Olberman read some fan fic sites and pretended it was his concept to Muggles everywhere. That's some evil genius right there.

Alex · 07-03-2007, 07:15 PM

Either way, seems solid enough for me and odds are the finale will be lame (simply because almost all finales in multi-volume epic fantasy series end up being lame) so I'm good with assuming it is correct.

Yeah, I've had Olberman's theory since Aud and I spent an evening dishing at our favorite diner after we'd finished the book... and I think that would work well with the purported word of the last chapter of Deathly Hallows. Nevertheless, I can't wait to read it. Aud and I are going to be at our standard Burbank bookstore (this'll be our third time there for an HP release.)

This time with Tom in tow, since he's read (and savored) all six since the last release. (So no "hey, just calling to chat and INTERRUPT YOUR READING MARATHON" calls like last time. "Honey, I love you, but... I'M IN THE MIDDLE OF THE HALF-BLOOD PRINCE!") He and I are each buying our own-- no way we can wait for the other to finish!
