Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows
discussion
30 Day Challenge
Day twenty-three: I'm pretty sure most of the books made me cry, the movies didn't affect me as much because they weren't as real as the words on the pages I pored over. Certain points that I can think of are in the forest when Harry uses the resurrection stone and sees all of his "family" (Lupin, Sirius, and his parents), when he was digging Dobby's grave, When Sirius died, many others too I'm sure.
Day 23: i have to say that i cried a lot while reading the 7th book, what with burying Dobby and Remus and Tonks dying and the part when Harry uses the resurrection stone and Snape dying (i only cried when i read that part for the second time)
Day 24: Any particular scene I wanted in the movie? How about Peeves in his entirety? I don't understand why he wasn't there... Also, Sir Cadogan - the knight from the painting? He was hilarious! There were lots of Fred and George moments that were omitted. I would have been perfectly happy to watch a five hour movie and have them leave nothing out from the books. Haha.

yes,Sirius´ death(but just in the book),and DH is one big cryfest for me,heh
Day 24 - Any particular scene you wished would have been put in the movie, but wasn’t?
everything that was left out of OOTP...and Dumbledore´s past.
Day 25 - Nineteen years later. Are you happy how it turned out, or do you wish something was different, ie Neville married Luna

Day 30 - What affect has Harry Potter made on your life and how much does it mean to you?
affect?Well,i am Potterhead...and uhm,nothing XD
DONE
Day 24: i think if they added Peeves the whole thing would have been a lot better, also i really wish they had added S.P.E.W and more Dobby. the only actual specific scenes I wish they had added was Valentines day wish Chow from book 5. if i actually watched all the movies again i could probably think of a dozen other scenes they missed and should have really had.
I accidentally skipped day 8! Day 8- My favorite lesson would be Potions or Ancient Runes. :)
Day 24 - I can't think of any particular scenes, but more Dobby would have been cool.Day 25 - I liked the 19 years later part. I was happy to see what happened in the future, but I was mad that they didn't have Lupin's son in there. Plus it would have been great in the book if it included some more info about Neville, Luna, & George. It wrapped up the series, but still left me wanting more.
Day 26 - Probably Protego or Accio
:)

And of course I would want back all the usual people, Fred, George, Lupin, Tonks, and Siri..."Day 23: accidentally answered this on on day 21. I didn't even realize there was a question about it. :)
Day 25: I think J.K. Rowling did a good job with the nineteen years later thing. I do wish Neville and Luna would have gotten together, though. Or Harry and Luna. Haha. It also felt really random to me that Draco ended up with Astoria Greengrass. Someone we've never heard of until then. I definitely didn't want him to end up with Pansy, but some random chick? Oh well. I looove the epilogue, though. It was my favorite part of the entire book. The image in my mind of all of them with all their kids (and Lupin's boy WHO WASN'T EVEN IN THE MOVIE) was so heart-warming and special. Especially that part when Harry assures Albus Severus that they will love him whether he is in Slytherin, or not, and how he was named after two of the best headmasters Hogwarts had ever seen, one of whom was a Slytherin. :)
Day 12 - Ehh.....hard. I say Tonks and Lupin. They're so tight and perfect.Day 13 - Like many say, number 6. Too much romance.
Day 14 - HARRY. I'm going to be boring, but HARRY. I love him and his friends and the DA....
Day 15 - Hermione, Luna, Ginny. They're each a different part of me.
Day 16 - Does Regulus count? If so, HIM. His note in the sixth was so powerful.
Day 17 - Honestly, I'm scared. To REALLY do the book justice, you need like 6 parts. NOT THAT I WANT SIX PARTS I WOULD PROBABLY GO MAD.
Day 18 - Fifth. It was depressing and didn't have much of a storyline.
Day 19 - BOOKS DUH. JK Rowling
Day 20 - You know, I just want to meet John Williams. XD But if so....Ralph Fiennes. I want to see what it's like to be THE bad guy and have to wear all that make-up XD
Day 21 - Fred. The Weasleys have suffered enough. Do they really have to suffer the loss of Fred? And right after Percy forgave him!
Day 22 - Why is this a question? HP!
Day 23 - When Snape died in the books and movies, I cried but it was more touching in the movies with everything about "Your mother's eyes"
Day twenty-four: Off the top of my head, the only scene that I can think of that I wish they had put in the movie would have to be in DH. After the war is over, when Harry goes to the headmaster's office and seeks advice (or more like confirmation) from Dumbledore on what he knew about the Hallows, and what to do with them. The image of Dumbledore being so proud and happy was sorely missed.Day twenty-five: To be perfectly honest, I didn't like the "19 years later" concept. I understand that it was a huge series and JKR had to pay homage to the heroes in the the story, but I felt like it was just wrapping the series up in a neat way. I don't care that Harry and Ginny, and Ron and Hermione got married. The story was written well enough that I knew they were meant to be together anyway.
Day 23; When people I loved died....Like Fred and dobby, and the beloved Cedric<3 (all forever missed)
Day 24; in the order of the phoenix when Harry potter gave the interview to the quibbler! I just LOVED that part in the book and was extremely disappointed it wasn't in the movie!!!!
Day 24 - When the Ministry guy visited the Gaunt house in HP 6.Day 25 - Um, no. I don't think anything should have changed. It was very cool, and I liked it.
Day 16: Fenrir Greyback: He was my favorite because he completley fit the description of a death eater. scary, mean, and had no guilt.
Nope. He didn't. HE's also very, very creepy.

In the deleted scenes from the thrid movie Sir Cadogan is actually shown being a pain because changed the password, again.
Day 25: I really liked the nineteen years later part. It was so sweet. Perfect ending to the series.
day 13: Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets.
day 14:
Team Harry!
day 15:
I thnk Neville and Luna wouold be my friends, cause I love them both (:
day 16:
DEfinitely Bellatrix Estrange, because she's SOOO crazy but I have to admit, I always loved her.
day 17:
It was amazing!! But I really wanted to see the confrontation with Harry & Voldemort at the end :/
day 18:
Hmm I would have tosay the second book.
day 19:
The books!!<33 no doubt! The movies don't do them justice
day 20:
Definitely Emma Watson! She's super interesting, and even though the HP movies stopped, she's still doing stuff out there.
day 21:
Snape! I really LOVED him all through the books, and I cried when I part about when he died :(
day 22:
WHAT ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT?! HARRY POTTER IS A MILLION TIMES BETTER THAN TWILIGHT :D
day 23:
I cried loads when Dobby died! And also when Snape died :'(
day 24:
In the 7th movie, I would have wanted the EXACT ending in the book (:
day 25:
I do wish Neville and Lunna should've gotten together! They were perfect.

Um, I think it's one of Harry's and Ginny's kid. I could be wrong. And Teddy is the son of Lupin and Tonks so....I.D.K. I forgot. Ask someone else.
Yeah...

I still think there needs to be a new series featuring Harry, Ron, and Hermione's kids. Not to mention Teddy too.

Ohh whyy thank you Danielle
Sorry, I always confuse people....
Kare wrote: "I still think there needs to be a new series featuring Harry, Ron, and Hermione's kids. Not to mention Teddy too."But wouldn't it be a bit boring? All the exciting stuff that happened at Hogwarts was because of Voldemort and Harry being who he was, plus Fred and George. I don't know how J.K., or anyone, could write a story about the next gen and it be in any way exciting. /shrug
Day 26: If I would be able to work one spell without a wand, it would probably be some generic cleaning spell. It's the one I'd use the most, anyway. haha.

No problem. :)
Day twenty-six: If I could work one spell without a wand, I think I'd have to say that Accio would be the most logical. That way I could still summon anything I needed, especially in a pinch.
Michelle wrote: "Day 26: If I would be able to work one spell without a wand, it would probably be some generic cleaning spell. It's the one I'd use the most, anyway. haha."Day 26: same here. Never do housework again! Yay!
Day 26: The spell I'd do is: either a clean-up spell or some cool spell to use on my brother.
Day 26; expelliarmus. (spell check)Because then I could just catch there wand and Waaaaa-llaaaa
I could do any other spell with a wand that I couldn't do with out one
Michelle wrote: "Kare wrote: "I still think there needs to be a new series featuring Harry, Ron, and Hermione's kids. Not to mention Teddy too."But wouldn't it be a bit boring? All the exciting stuff that happene..."
I suppose. I guess the epilogue just left me wanting more and I was sad to see it end.
Day 25: I liked 19 years later allot, if it had been a whole other book I would have liked it much better, but you can't expect J.K. Rowling to keep writing Harry Potter forever so I was pretty happy with it. Day 26: I have no idea what spell I would use, maybe a summoning charnm because I'm so lazy.
Danielle wrote: "*Rose* wrote: "Who is that though?"Victori is a random girl a Hogwarts that Teddy is dating. We never find out any more about her other than that."
Actually Victoire is Bill and Fleur's first child, she was named victoire because it's french for victory and she was born on the second anniversary of the battle of Hogwarts. If you don't believe me check the Harry Potter wikipidea page or J.K. Rowling's web site.
Day 27: The invisibility cloak! There's not much point in the resurrection stone, imo. It only brings back a ghostly form of the dead ones. The elder wand would be cool and all, but I'd much rather be able to be invisible when needed.
Day twenty-seven: As much as my heart screams "PICK THE RESURRECTION STONE!" I know better. I would love to be able to bring back my loved ones with the flick of my wrist, and see them again, and talk to them for a while, I also remember the suffering it caused the dead who were brought back. So I suppose, after some thought I would have to say my choice would be the invisibility cloak. It would make life so much easier in so many ways :) .
Day 27: I would do the Invisibility Cloak. It's the most harmless, and really old and magical. I like fairy-tales and I like ancient stuff, so...:)
Day 27: Invisibility cloak, I just don't see the point of owning the other 2.

Actually Victoire is Bill and..."
I was juat going off of what was in the book. I've read a little of the character's futures that aren't mentioned in the book, but I haven't really bothered researching it. That is interesting to know though.
Day 27: Invisiblity Cloak hands down. I really have no interest in the other two.
Day 27 - I suppose the invisibility cloak. However, I would be tempted to get the Elder wand instead.Day 28 - I have not heard of it, but I guess I would just have to look it up.
Day 29 - I never saw it and I don't really want to.
Day 30 - This series is quite important to me. I didn't grow up with it or anything, but it certainly provided a good escape for tough times.
Day twenty-eight: I haven't ever actually heard of Wizard Wrock, but I'm not opposed to the idea I suppose. Will have to look it up sometime.
