Hi!My name is Cherrie. I come from Hong Kong.I want to say something about you-know-who.
I know that you-know-who is very cruel and very dark. However, what made him to have these personality. I mean when he was a child, he was lonely and he did not know anything about magic and the wizarding world. He was confused. Therefore, he lost his controland caused the dark lord today.
In short, I want to say that the Dark lord is very cruel and dark,but there are some reasons that caused him to be a dark wizard.
I think the dark lord is very poor because he does not know love and thereis no love in his world. He is lonely.At the last moment of his life,he still did't know what is love and he didn't have any friend!
How about you? What do you think about you-kno-who? Can you think some reason that caused Tom Riddle to be a dark wizard?

Lily did not leave Severus's side until Madam Pomfrey said she had to sleep and could use the bed next to him. When Snape woke up he looked around wondering what happened. He looked out the windo, the moon was about to set. Then he saw Lily, covered in blood. She was laying on her back, head faceing away from him. He tried to sit up but it hurt to bad. "Lily?" he wispered. And that seemed to wake her up. She was at his side so fast he didn't see her move. "What happened to you?" he asked pointing at the blood all over her. Lily looked down for half a second. "You don't remember do you?" she...

And so now the hurly-burly's done, the battle's lost and won — the Battle of Hogwarts, that is — and all the secrets are out of the Sorting Hat. Those who bet Harry Potter would die lost their money; the boy who lived turned out to be exactly that. And if you think that's a spoiler at this late date, you were never much of a Potter fan to begin with. The outrage over the early reviews (Mary Carole McCauley of The Baltimore Sun, Michiko Kakutani of The New York Times) has faded...although the sour taste lingers for many fans.

It lingers for me, too, although it doesn't have anything to do...

Many of us are familiar with Harry Potter's Diagon Alley but somehow... it sounds weird to hear A Diagon Mall. I am a third year student taking up Advertising and we are assign think of a topic that suit our satisfaction. Our topic is about Thematic Branding and I am thinking about doing the Harry Potter's Diagon Alley. Since the place is already a commercial place for the wizardy world I have decided to pick it up as my thesis. Now I would like to gather comments about my proposal about Advertising Diagon Alley and make it not just an ordinary place in a magical world.

Since the 7th book is out and has probably been read by most of the Harry Potter fans, does this really mean that the Potter mania is over? When I finished the book, I immediately reread it just trick to myself into thinking it wasn't over. For a while I was in a state of Potter denial. I kept thinking that it's not over and there will be loads more books after the 7th. I have finally realized that it's over and done with. But it got me thinking.

Will we ever have another great series like Harry Potter?

It's possible that we might not see another great series for 5, 10, or even 20 years. It might not be as good as Harry Potter, but there's hope.

But maybe we won't have to wait. Maybe the Potter mania isn't really over. With Fanfic, Fanart, Wizard Rock and everything wizard related the Potter legacy still continues. So, maybe it isn't the end.

Its a common infliction that can consume the soul. The manufacturing of bacterial buffers is common in the witch world. Making increasingly nasty bacterial compositions, to increase buffering capabilities of sinners. I know the method, doesn't necessarily need to be stated, using radiation, semen, feces from sinners, using isolated radioactive individuals, radiating further, then look for new compounds or life forms. These weaponize, I remediate all weaponize material giving a new life form, a mark, that grows as a sickness to consume the soul. I cure the virus, only if you choose to sin, will...

I love Draco Malfoy so much! And we all know that he has a knack for good comebacks. So, these are some things you can say or do when he insults you. Let's get this list started!

1.If he calls you a Mudblood, say "At least I'm no bleached blonde."
2. If he makes fun of you for being bad at Quidditch, get the Snitch from right under his nose and don't let him forget it.
3. Slap him across the face.
4. Do a Moody and turn him into a ferret.
5. Turn his hair pink.
6. Call him a Daddy's boy.
7. Bewitch snowballs to constantly hit him on the back of his head.
8. Sneak a Puking Pastille into his dinner--...

•“Tired of walking in on Harry, Hermione and Ron all over the school, Professor McGonagall had given them permission to use the empty Transfiguration classroom at lunchtimes.”

•“Stars winking in front of his eyes, he grabbed the top of the hat to pull it off and felt something long and hard beneath it.•“‘Nice socks, Potter,’ Moody growled as he passed, his magical eye staring through Harry’s robes.”

•“‘Everyone seems quite relieved, though, considering they all knew I’d get off,’ said Harry, smiling.”

•“Hagrid’s pumpkins swelled to the size of garden sheds.”...

How often does it happen that we decide to watch a film in the theatre, then search it online, and then leave it to finish downloading first so that we could watch it some other time, and then end up, ultimately, forgetting about it altogether? Quite often, I’d say!
There’s nothing wrong in choosing to download the film you are here for, but when you can link, why not simply sit down and enjoy it first, and then worry about whether you want to keep this film with your forever! It’s not only acceptable in the film-fan world, but it’s also the idea in vogue. Furthermore, outing to cinema...

Hermione Granger and Ginny Weasley
I just want to state right away that J. K. Rowling is in no way sexist. This is about the fans and again, not all of them.

Ginerva Molly Weasley. The love of Harry Potter's life, the mother of his children. Headstrong, smart, cunning, quick-thinking, and fierce. The hero to many girls, young and old, and the object of affection to many boys out there as well.

Hermione Jane Granger. The love of Ron Weasley's life, the mother of his children. Also headstrong, smart, cunning, quick-thinking, and just as fierce, if only in a slightly different way. Hermione is possibly the most well-known of the...

    Minerva McGonagall walked down the corridor with her head held high; she simply couldn't help but feel pleased with herself. And, who could, for that matter? She had finally done it, she was finally a teacher at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry.
    The young Transfiguration teacher walked confidently into the great hall on her first day of teaching, and she felt a small jolt of satisfaction as she passed by the Gryffindor table on her way to the staff table. It was not that she had ever disliked sharing meals with her fellow...

Q.) If Harry and Edward had to duel against each other using their own abilities, who do you think would win?

Meyer:

A.) Oh gosh, don’t get mad at me but I don’t know what a wizard fight looks like in her (JKRowling's) head. I know what it looks like in the movies so I have to go on what it looks like in the movies. But here is the thing, if it’s possible for a human to duck a wand being shot at them; a vampire is not going to have a problem. The fight would be over in .01 seconds because Edward would be across the room snapping his (Harry's) neck. He would be done. He wouldn’t even have time to say his spell word. I’m sorry but Edward would win that one.

This was an interview done in 08 I think by MuggleNet podcast. I personally think it's ridiculous (and I feel the need to Crucio her).. but do you agree?
In the book, it looks like they were closer to the cave.

If you are like the millions of other Harry Potter fans out there, you have been keeping up with every little bit of Half Blood Prince film information that has leaked out so far. After reviewing the five trailers (including the Japan one) and first look that have come out (not including ABC's five, one minute long previews), fans now have a general idea of what will be in the film from the book, and what is changed/won't be in the film. Thus what follows is what I have gathered to be the scenes included in the film from the books, and what we will see having been changed from book to film...

here are some things i came up with that define people who just like harry potter from people who are OBSESSED!

1.    Here are some more things that you would do if you were really obsessed with harry potter:

2.    You’ve made your own firebolt...and played quidditch on it with your friends who also have their own broomsticks.

3.    You don’t understand when your friends can't cry on demand, because all you have to do is think about dobby.

4.    When someone says "i'm serious" you say "no you're not!"

5.    When...

There is a theory, particularly popular amongst Snape and Snily fans, that Snape was truly Harry's biological father instead of James Potter. There are two main variants of this theory. The first is that Lily had a long term affair with Snape, possibly from when they were all in their final year at Hogwarts together. The second is that Lily had a one-night-stand with Snape after arguing with James, which she immediately regretted but which led to Harry's existence.

The first issue with this theory is how strongly Harry resembles James. The only difference in their physical appearance is their...

"Who wants to be in Slytherin? I think I'd leave, wouldn't you?" - James Potter (DH)
Imagine being in Hufflepuff, I think I'd leave, wouldn't you?" - Draco Malfoy (PS)
Similar yet different!
Quite ironic isn't it? Father of the hero and arch nemisis of the hero have the same line. I don't think it's a coincidence that both James and Draco quote a similar line about a house they were prejudiced against. Both boys were brought up as the only sons in rich pureblood families. Both were undoubtedly spoilt. Both were definitely raised with a house prejudice. Both were definitely arrogant, attention-seeking...

Hi guys, I managed to see this Harry Potter spin-off just now at the cinema with 2 of my classmates. Here's my review about the film since that there is no fan club about this movie yet!

The Story

Unlike the typical Harry Potter that I had read and watch the series, the story is extraordinary unusual especially in the Harry Potter Universe. I was a bit disappointed because they should have shown a bit of Lord Voldemort's background, and I thought that Credence was an ancestor of Voldemort due to their mannerism, motives and magic. Secondly, I was not very happy that they use the term 'No-Maj'...

Lily's POV

They need a horcrux? From me? But by Abby's smug look, I can tell that they're tactful planners. They must know that the Weasleys aren't going down with a fight: They've been expecting us. Suddenly I wish that I had listened to James, that I had just backed out of all of this. Tamara surely would do it, do this even better than I could.

I took a deep breath and answered them.

The Weasley family has an owl named Errol and it's very old; it's moulting, and so exhausted that it can't even stand up after a flight - In fact it often downright loses consciousness after both long and short flights. If it even gets to where it's sent, because its eye vision has gotten so poor that it hits objects as it flies, which also can make it lose consciousness and could even kill it. Still the Weasley's keep using it for delievering their mail. In addition, their youngest son shows no compassion to it, calling it a "bloody bird", "menace" and "pathetic". And the Weasley parents bought...
