Final Deathly Hallows Debates: Who Lives and Who Dies?
We know for sure that some characters are going to die in Deathly Hallows. Last year in an interview, J.K. Rowling said that two characters die who she had not originally thought would die in the end of the story. That means at least two characters die, but probably more. And that's probably not counting Harry and/or Voldemort. So who lives and who dies? Tell us who you think will die, and more importantly, why you think so.Pages: << < 38 39 40 41 42 43 44 45 46 47 48 49 50 51 52 53 54 55 56 57 58 ... > >> Reader Comments: (Page 48) Harry not he Voldemort.

I think that Fawkes is Dumbledore's horcrux and that the prophecy is actually about Neville, so Neville Voldemort, but Harry is a horcrux, so he has to , also. Posted by cecily from neport news, VA on July 15, 2007 5:00 PM
I believe that Ron . Only because one of the trio has to go, and he's the most likely candidate out of the three to me.
It really concerns me how many people are saying that Lupin . Aside from Sirius, he was my very favorite character. It would be extremely sad for me to see him go.
Other than that, I think that Voldemort, Snape, Wormtail, and Kingsley , along with Dobby.
So those five and Ron...And definitely Bellatrix.
Harry her because of the pain that she has caused him in the past. He'll find a way.
Malfoy, I think, either be ed by Voldemort, or (here's to hoping!) come to the Order seeking protection. Posted by Becca from Eagle, Idaho on July 15, 2007 5:19 PM

Wow! You guys are blood thirsty! If you read all of these posts, EVERYONE s!
1. Ron, Hermione, and Harry not . Do you want to give all the little kids reading this a heart attack?
2. JK said one person , who she didn't originally intend to and that it was difficult writing it. She also said that someone perform magic who you don't expect it from. I personally think Neville s saving Harry from Voldemort. He finally gets his chance to make his parents proud. If you read each book closely, he is so fiercely loyal to Harry, he be the one to do something amazing and Harry realize what a friend he has always been. His be bittersweet because we all love him for his innocence and loyalty but we'll know he finally had a the opportunity to shine.
2. JK said someone goes on to be a teacher at Hogwarts. What's the one class that has never had a good, solid, regular teacher at Hogwarts? Defense Against the Dark Arts! Harry go on to teach D.A.D.A., just as he did with flying colors in the "Order" and finally, Hogwarts' one hole in teaching by the person most qualified to fill it. Herbology and Divination are too minor for the reader to care if someone goes into a teacher's position there, but Defense has been an ongoing void since Book 1.
3. Malfoy had better because he's just scum. Posted by Stacy from Lansing, MI on July 15, 2007 6:35 PM

I just had a long talk about this with my sister actually...here are my thoughts:
1. Harry Potter and Voldemort: Obviously Voldemort is not going to survive. I think though that Harry might along with him. It would just make sense for Harry to finally sacrifice himself fully for the cause, seeing as so many others d protecting him.
2. If Harry does not I think that Ron . Ron is the closer to Harry than Hermionie. It would just make sense for the best friend to sacrifice himself for Harry.
3. I think that Peter , obviously because he owes him that much as part of his
4. Malfoy, I just can't see Voldemort letting him live. He expected him to trying to Dumbledore and after he failed that there would be no point in him staying alive
5. Bellatrix, I think that Neville prove that he could of been the chosen one and Bellatrix in revenge for his parents.
Well those are my thoughts, of course other's but of the main characters those are my thoughts.... Posted by Annie from Provo, Utah on July 15, 2007 7:13 PM

"neither can live while the other survives"
I've just been thinking. So, if Harry s Voldemort he can live, right? 'Neither' refers to both of them - yes? Either they both have to each other, or one has to the other so that the other one, himself, can live. I find the phrasing confusing!
I know that sounds like it's stating the obvious but it does mean that Harry CAN be allowed to live (in spite of the fact that I have been convinced for a long time that he would not).
Surely, the alternative to Harry staying alive is him being ed by Voldemort and as he is meant to Voldemort that won't happen. Well, think about it, it's either Harry s Voldemort, or there is a spectacular double . Come to thnk of it I'm not sure that's likely.
Well it's only four days now until we find out, and, having just had a last listen through of Fry's audio HBP I find myself thinking - I would very much like Harry to live. No, not because I'm desperate for another Harry Potter book, I think this round off the series nicely. It's just that he's had a pretty raw deal - he's lost friend after friend, his time as school has been tough even though he has Ron and Hermione; and 'home' is far from where his heart is.
After reading, re-reading and discussing HP for a long, long time I think I would be happy for Harry to live an happy, uneventful life with Ginny where absolutely nothing else happened to him in his entire life. I think he needs a break, and even though I have been convinced that he be ed off, I hope I'm wrong and I hope he gets one. Posted by Anonymous on July 15, 2007 9:41 PM
All this is certainly to do everything with the prophecy.
Why are all forgetting:
"Neither can live while the other survives"
and prophecy stars with:
"The one whom the power to vanquish the Dark Lord approaches to..."
I personally think that "neither" means one has to but the other (may be harry or dark lord) assumed but regenerate or survive.
He must have to fight many eaters. If he fights, he must them this split his soul and he can make a horcrux. I know this sounds very odd thing harry to do. But he can ask help from Slughorn. This can be totally wrong. Posted by booklover on July 16, 2007 12:25 AM
Wormtail he, save Harry.
Snape , Harry him.
Hagrid, Grwap and Lupin, Two of them must .
I sure hope Pecy s.
If Lupin doesnt Tonks .
Other members of the order probally (hopefully Mundungus).
I think the trio survive mainly because i think Harry can't and i cant picture Ron alive without Hermione or vice-versa.
I dont believe Harry is a horcrux.
I dont think Dumbledore has a horcrux because i dont believe he would do such crude evil magic.
I think that Snape was always kind of with both sides passing info to both of them and waiting to see which side he would stick with but i think that by makeing the unbreakable vow and by ing dumbledore he realized that he couldn't come back to the order and that he had to be a eater.
I think perhaps Ginny might but probally not because that's the reason Harry broke up with her at the end of the sixth... so that she wouldn't be used as bait by Voldemort Posted by david age 12 from kitchener on July 16, 2007 01:22 AM

I can't figure out why so many people think Harry is a Horcrux. Does it say or imply it in the books (I may have missed it...) I'm just a bit curious - I can never draw conclusions like this from the text!
I had supposed that Voldemort did not have time to create a Horcrux when he ed Harry's parents (as far as we are told). The only way around it - that would allow Harry to live - would be if Voldemort attempted to Harry but only ed the part of his soul that was the Horcrux within the scar (say). This would remove the scar from Harry's forehead and allow him to live.
Until the past few days when I have been reading BH discussions, I did not believe there was hope that Harry might live, but I have found some terrific arguments proposed here that make his survival a possibility at least. After all Harry has been through, the friends he has lost, the 'family from hell' and almost constant misery and unhappiness he has endured - surely, surely there is a small chance that Harry live, and that JKR ensure that while he does so, he not need to fight anymore (so no more books). I just don't think the book be anything that we could anticipate - I enver dreamed of such things as Spinners End, and Draco's Detour in HBP - did you?
We all be reading like stink over the week-end, ready for the BH discussions to come. In the meantime, I hope my favourites Lupin, Tonks, Ron, Hermione and Harry come through if not unharmed then at least alive. Posted by Marjorie from New Zealand on July 16, 2007 01:40 AM
