Harry Potter, the Propechy?

1)  No.  J.K. Rowling has said Harry Potter bears no relation to Lord Voldemort.  You may find the answer to that and many more questions at her personal website jkrowling.com.\n\n2)  J.K. Rowling has also stated on her website that Neville is not included in the prophecy and that it refers specifically to Lord Voldemort and Harry... and the actual phrasing is "and either must die at the hand of the other for neither can live while the other survives".  What this actually means is still up for much speculation, and while I have my own theories on the subject considering events in the Harry Potter series up to this point, it would take a long time to explain them, so I shall refrain from doing so here.\n\n3)  Is Snape good or bad?  As she points out in her books, people are rarely so simple.  Is Draco Malfoy good or bad?  Most of the evidence we've seen suggests he's bad, but the Sectumsempra chapter of Half Blood Prince gives us a glimpse into a boy who feels very much in over his head and whose public mask of confidence is just that... he's not prepared to be the type of person others want him to be.  Is Snape like that?  We haven't been shown very much of his private workings outside the short trip Harry took through the Pensieve in his office, so that, too is up for debate.  I don't think the evidence points toward him being evil, though, nor does it really indicate what people think it does.  His "unbreakable vow" was not specific in its second part.  Narcissa Malfoy trailed off before specifying what she was asking Snape to do, so for all that he could have interpreted the vow to mean "I must do what Draco Malfoy has been told by Voldemort to do if he fails to brush his teeth tonight!  DRACO!  GET IN HERE!  I SHALL STAND HERE AND WATCH AS YOU BRUSH YOUR TEETH THIS INSTANT!"  There you go, that part of the vow's fulfilled.\n\nThat said, though, after he ostensibly killed Dumbledore, his behavior suggests the part of the vow he had to fulfill--since it was the only explicit part-- was to take any action he could to protect Draco Malfoy, which is exactly what he did that night (and what Dumbledore did, too... I have to admit I thought he'd die, but I didn't really ever figure he'd die for Draco Malfoy).  \n\nBeyond that, even while he was fleeing the last thing Snape tried to do in the few seconds between Draco Malfoy escaping to safety and him having to follow, was pound into Harry Potter's head the two lessons Harry needs to most learn to prevail against Lord Voldemort, and which Snape has been increasingly angry Harry has not learned from Snape's repeated attempts to teach him over the past two years.  Instead of truly injuring Harry, he only slowed him up enough so Harry was forced to listen to him... every time Harry attempted to hurt him, he simply knocked the attack aside as a further demonstration of the advantages of being able to use those two abilities (occlumency and silent spell casting) during battle, all while shouting exactly what it was Harry should learn from Snape's easy deflection of the attacks.  He may not be a pleasant man, but Snape's actions were the actions of a teacher who knew he only had a few more moments to instruct a student who did not understand, but whom he was desperate to see succeed (for once).  If he really wanted Harry to fail, he wouldn't have bothered explaining just why those lessons Harry wasn't cottoning onto were so dreadfully important for him to learn, especially since they're the two lessons Snape himself would most have to employ in order to deceive Lord Voldemort and stay alive.

I think that Harry will die in the seventh book.  Honestly, I wouldn't mind too much if he did.  I love the books, but in the last two he has become very annoying.

I have read that there isn't any quidditch in the next book which supports Harry not coming back to Hogwarts.  I also read that the last word in the book is supposed to be SCAR.

For me, it would depend on how engaging and interesting I found the subject matter.  I read the last two Harry Potter books both in one day.

Can I answer with a question? Which was your favorite? I have to say I so loved #4! I couldn't wait for #5 to come out and then when I read it, I was angry. (yes.....sad too) But it surely didn't stop me from reading #6 which was fabulous! I can only imagine what J.K. Rowling has in store for us with #7!!! See you in the book stores!

Its a great trailer! It hardly shows anything but it is just enough to make you want to see more! \n\nI couldn't believe the trailer was only, what, like, a minute? Is a 3 or 4 minute trailer too much to ask?!?! Why?\n\nI think they have all changed SO much, but I kind of think Harry looks better with the shorter hair, much more mature thats for sure...but I never thought he was too good looking anyways. Have you seen the pictures for the movie? I think those Weasley twins, Fred and George, are the real hotties.\n\nI cannot wait to see the movie. I'm a fan of the movies, but i think they lack the greatness that shows in the books, and they do tend to leave out so much. But. The 5th book is my favorite book in the series, so I hope they do a good job, I'm going to be a tough critic! LOL. It looks so good!

I read that the Harry Potter books began when the author, working as a waitress I believe it was, began writing down on napkins and scraps, things she thought of during the day to add to the ongoing bedtime story for her kids. People seeing and reading them began encouraging her to put it all together into books that all of us could enjoy. So, if Little Red Riding Hood is occultic, and the Seven Dwarves, and the Three Little Pigs, then yes it's occultic. :-)\nThey were begun and written as entertaining, humorous bedtime stories, that like other bedtime stories, sometimes have a moral to them.

I love Harry Potter! The best book was probably Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire because I loved the triwizard tournament! I can't wait for the 7th book to come out!!!

HARRY POTTER series is my favorite because it is spellbinding, enchanting & bewitching !!! The Harry Potter books are that rare thing, a series of stories adored by parents & children alike!!! Children have always been gripped by the funny, quirky & imaginative stories of J.K. Rowling.

Man, what kind of information? Just the last two books put together is a thousand pages! Harry Potter's mother and father (James and Lily) were killed trying to protect Harry from an evil wizard, Lord Voldemort. (I AM LORD VOLDEMORT is an anagram for Tom Marvolo Riddle.) Harry was taken to his Aunt and Uncle's house, where he grew up under horrid circumstances, forced to live in a closet under the stairs. He discovers his parents had enrolled him in Howarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, and gladly leaves his Aunt and Uncle behind. In each book, he attends the school, where odd things are happening, even by wizarding standards. In the first story, Harry hears a rumor of the Sorceror's Stone, which can be used to create the Elixir of Life, giving the person who drinks it a long-lasting life. In the second story, the students of Hogwarts live in fear of something called the Chamber of Secrets, where Salazar Slytherin left behind a monster to purge the school of those who, in Slytherin's view, were unworthy to study magic. This means Muggle-borns, or humans. In the third, a prisoner named Sirius Black has escaped from the wizard prison, Azkaban, a feat no other has managed. Black is said to be a devoted follower of Voldemort, and wants Harry dead. Security in the castle is tightened, but Black still manages to get in. In the fourth, Harry finds himself part of an ancient game, the Triwizard Tournament, where a single student from each school (Hogwarts, Durmstrang, and Beaubatons) compete for the winning cup. The Goblet of Fire spews out not only Cedric Diggory's name from Hogwarts, but also young Harry's. In the fifth book, the Order of the Phoenix is a group of wizards opposed to Voldemort. The Order was founded by Dumbledore himself (the Headmaster of Hogwarts). And in the sixth book, Harry discovers an old potions book, with inserts and notations by someone called "The Half-Blood Prince." Now, see? I've given you a basic summary of each book's plot, and I've written a huge answer!
