Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows
« on: December 22, 2006, 11:02:25 AM »
Okay, I know Stephen King and a couple of other authors begged her not to kill Harry in this last book, and then she won't say if she is or not... so I was curious what everyone thought. And if you voted that you didn't care, why the hell did you even vote?

You asked, so I voted.

Good stories could result from either choice.
With a skilled writer anyway.

I'm not a partularly big HP fan, so I really don't care if he survives or not.

lol, guess I'll be the first to answer that cares. I think she'll leave harry alive because so many people have become atatched to him that if he died there would be a huge uproar.

I think he will be left alive, but I do know that she has said she does NOT want ANYONE to write about her characters EVER. In an invterview, JKR said she didn't want someone digging up the rights to the characters after she died and fraggin' them up like Lord of the Rings. So who can really say.

Yeah, but they can do that whether or not she kills them off- just write it as "one of the additional adventures of Harry Potter!"

Thats why Harry is toast.  She'll kill him and probably someone nice like a Weasley parent, just to make him extra miserble before she offs him.  She's a completely selfish writer who has all ready told the legion of fans who made her as rich as the queen, that she doesn't want to hear from them if they don't like what she does.  I say if she does something the fans hate she has to suck it up and deal with their ire.

Well, I guess she can cry big crocodile tears on her millions when the fans make her sad.

I saw Black's death coming- but Dumbeldore's death caught me off guard.

Honestly, I'm curious how the series is going to end.

No, I don't see it ending badly- I'm sure that no matter which route she takes, there will be people critisizing her decision.

I mean, Stephen King even flew to England to ask her not to kill Harry in the last book. As if he had any say in who's characters get killed.

I think it would be a good end to the story- but at least one major character has to die- either Harry or Voldemort have to kick the bucket, and I think it's possible that they're connected somehow, so both of them will die if either one has to.

I think that's the direction things are going.

I'm picturing the "heroic last stand" kind of thing where Harry dies but takes Voldomort out in the process.

That would just be dumb. But, yeah, I can see it happening that way.
