Harry Potter Predictions

[Shadow Phoenix]

Since book 7 is coming, why don't we get some predictions for what will happen and afterwards, we can all look back and see who was right, and who was more just a Professor Trelawney.

[brother vinny]

Ron Weasley is expelled from Hogwarts for brokering a ménage à trois with Hermoine Granger and Luna Lovegood (which is surprising; considering the type of school it is, Hogwarts is amazingly conservative in many aspects).

Oh and Snape's motives were noble, and Harry dies at the end.

[spiritmech]

:brood:

[Tlalynet]

How about RAB being Regalus Adolfus Black?
Its the only thing that seems to fit.

[spiritmech]

Will Harry survive? Or not? I think he's dead. Our deacon thinks he's still alive.

[The Silent Q]

It's too easy to kill of Harry. I think Hermione will be the one to die. Ginny and Harry end up together, but that will be about the only bright spot in the book. Hogwarts will be shut down half way through the year due to the fact that everyone will believe it's actually a hiding place for death-eaters. And Snape will die a horrible death at the hands of the Weasleys but we'll find out after-the-fact that his actions were indeed noble.

[NeilUnreal]

My prediction: Neville Longbottom will play a more significant role than he has up to this point.

After all, he was the only other infant who could even potentially have fulfilled one of Trelawney's two true prophecies. He also mirrors Harry in that his parents have been removed from direct participation in the books by Voldemort and the Death Eaters.

And in the end, it was he who won the house cup for Gryffindor in the first book. As Dumbledore said:

"It takes a great deal of courage to stand up to your enemies, but a great deal more to stand up to your friends."

Perhaps the end will hinge on this same theme...

I think Itll be Fred and George that will off it because of their flippancy to You Know Who, Theyll die nobaly thogh and take a chunk out of him like they left a mess for Umbridge. If Rowling wants to go the most trajic way possible Hermionie and Ginny will die, I dont think it will go that way thogh.
Of course she just said two main charaters will die, Could be Bellatrix Lestrige and Petter Pettigrew as far as that goes.

[Tlalynet]

I could see Neville dealing the final blow, It would be inetersitng.

[Gabby]

I think that Percy Wesley will have a major roll in this last book. Hopefully redemptive.

[Stabbytheclown]

One of the Weasley twins will die. The other will survive, alone in a world without laughter; unable to look at a novelty wand or exploding snap deck with joy again.

Meanwhile, Samuel L. Shacklebolt battles Nagini on a plane.

[jabr]

My guesses:

1) Harry et al discover that the horcrux in Half-Blood was taken by Regulus Black (Sirius' brother), who turned against Voldemort, but was killed before he got them all.

1a) Regulus got many of them, and he hid them in the Black house were the Order of the Phoenix was based.

2) Snape is "good" -- his oath was to help defeat Voldemort, and he had to kill Dumbledore to fulfill that oath -- and he ultimately dies at Voldemort's hand to save Harry.

3) Harry dies in the final battle with Voldemort (killing Voldemort, as well).

I could see Neville dealing the final blow, It would be interesting.

My niece disagrees with me somewhat on Neville's potential -- and she is a Harry Potter expert -- but I've always hoped that Neville would play a bigger role eventually. In spite of his interest in herbology, I could see a grown-up Neville as an Auror. His background vis-a-vis his parents almost demands it.

I think it's possible that at least one character, totally unexpected to this point, is actually in disguise. Most likely an evil player disguised as a character we have thought to be good. (Like the Scabbers motif.)

Another prediction: Draco Malfoy will have a change of heart, come to the light side, and he and Hermione will become friends. (Perhaps he will even die saving Hermione's life ?!?!)

Snape is "good" -- his oath was to help defeat Voldemort, and he had to kill Dumbledore to fulfill that oath -- and he ultimately dies at Voldemort's hand to save Harry.

This is another point my niece and I have discussed. We both also think this might be the case, but she also has a good argument in favor of Snape's actually being evil. Trouble is, I left my memory of that argument in my pen-sieve which I don't have handy at the moment. :lol:

[Jaltus]

Harry becomes the Defense Against the Dark Arts teacher at the end of the series and the head of Gryyfindor (sp).

Mr. Weasly becomes Minister of Magic.

[Gabby]

I also think Harry will die or go through the curtain like Sirius in the end.

[Pilgrim]

Dumbledore once said, "Severus Snape is no more a death eater than I am." It was a strangely deliberate addition to the narrative of Snape's trial. My prediction is that we find out that Dumbledore was not the hero we supposed.

I also wonder if Harry himself is not a horcrux and thus Voldemort's never ending attempts to kill him.

[NeilUnreal]

I also think Harry will die or go through the curtain like Sirius in the end.

Having Harry go through the curtain would be a good way to get him offstage without technically killing him. The narrative could be shaped so that he goes through the curtain to a good reunion with Sirius.

Perhaps Harry is a horcrux for Voldemort, and the last bit of Voldemort will vanish when Harry steps through the curtain. Or... perhaps Harry and Voldemort are now mutual horcruxes for each other, since Harry's blood flows in Voldemort's veins. Maybe it will be a race to see which one will get through the curtain first.

Another thought: what if Hogwarts itself is the final horcrux and the series ends with the destruction of Hogwarts?

Considering my post was originally made on April 14th, that may be the longest post-to-mod reaction time I've ever seen on this board.

New at the job, Quanta? :hehe:

Oh, and the new book is going to be a disappointment.

It better not be. :glare:

One of the things I'll miss most about the series ending is Mary GrandPré's illustrations. It would be cool if she could work out a deal with the publishers to issue a collected volume of all her Harry Potter illustrations.

That post was pointed out to me only yesterday. I had not even read the thread before then.
And given how many new members go back and read very old threads, I couldn't leave it unmodded anyway.

Q.

[Stabbytheclown]

From the UK children's version book cover, it seems Harry, Ron and Hermione... fight Scrooge McDuck?

[themuzicman]

He is transported through time, and becomes Gandalf the Grey.

[Tlalynet]

Ugh, book covers can be so ugly. I think Pilgram ment that Harry is a Horcrux for Dumbledor, or perhaps the thought only crossed my mind. Dumbledor did the actual killing of Voldemort after he killed the Potters and thoght that he would take a page out of Voldemorts book and make his own Horcurx.
I doubt it will be a dissapointment, Rowling has been a very consistent author.
