The line was cool, but come on. Bellatrix was suppose to be the second most dangerous person in the series. I mean come on, see took out Bellatrix. I just can't see it happening. The line was funny though.

 

I know I know. That's why I said that it was an Improbable duel. It never should of happened that way. I was merely trying to point out that that line was funny, and only that.

 

I know what you mean. I got excited by it and then I remembered what happened.

 

For me, that was worse than the epilogue - at least I kinda knew that Harry/Ginny OBHWF was coming down the pipe, but Molly offing Bellatrix...700 hundred pages of Harry camping in the woods with a broken wand to end like that - quite frankly, was fail.

On the other hand, Harry and Griphook mutually fucking each other over was pure win, and screwed Goblinfriend! Fanon Harry six feet into the ground.

 

Yeah, a kick-ass bitch like Bellatrix getting taken out by the mama Weasel? Another example of JKR's school of insta-phail.

 

I believe the phrase is 'coming down the pike' but the imagery your version evokes, the whole notion of the OBHWF as a concept, languidly oozing down a sewage pipe like a colossal, slimy, fetid turd, seems quite apropos at the moment.

Sadly, I could see canon Harry getting with Ginny, just because he simply didn't expect to live to see anything better and she happens to be the one aggressively pursuing him (edit: and because Hermione's sudden onset dementia has caused her to become infatuated with Ron, thus rendering her unavailable).

Hermione being retarded enough to think Ron was her type (or anyone's type), though, is beyond the scope of imagination.

Very nice, yes. Personally, I liked the idea that canon!Harry was willing to toss around Unforgivables like they were beads at fuckin' Mardi Gras, but somehow the way JKR implemented it still failed in some inexplicable way.

 

Man there was so much love potion floating around books 6 and 7 that it was sickening. I think Harry and Hermione got doped with. BTW how did Bill manage to snag Fleur. I wouldn't be surprised to find out that Mr. Weasley has been doped all of these years. It pisses me off!

 

It's official, The Weasley family Grimoire is actually a date-rape manual. With all of the evidence in the story's subtext for both Harry and Hermione being under emotion-altering substances (between Hermione's treatment of Harry and her violent mood swings and Harry's chest monster) and the fact that Ron actually gave Harry a manual on manipulating girls into your bed (we even see him successfully using the tactics on Hermione), how could anyone not believe that the Weasleys had HJP and HJG swimming up to their eyeballs in potion?

I actually blame the Prewetts. It's probably their Grimoire... Gideon and Fabian weren't killed by death eaters during an Order mission, they were killed in a duel by the parents of the pureblood girls they fed lust potion to.

The Prewett Family: Magical roofies since 1484.

Fleur falling for the wizarding version of Indiana Jones, I could sort of buy. Supposedly he was cool, good-looking, had a glamorous job, and between the fact that he was English and from a family that included ill-mannered siblings, a whipped eccentric father, and a potion-wielding welfare queen for a mother, he was guaranteed to piss off her parents.

Just what the doctor ordered for Daddy's rebellious little princess.

 

If you ask JKR, I'd be willing to bet that she would say it was the power of love. That duel failed in so many ways.

 

1. Book 7 - Harry realises he has to sacrifice himself and he opens the snitch
2. Book 6 - Harry kisses Ginny after the match
3. Book 7 - Harry, Hermione and Ron break into the ministry
4. Book 5 - They form the DA in the Hogs Head
5. Book 5 - They go to St. Mugos and see Lockhart

 

Wow, I don't want to seem harsh, but you are a whole new breed of retard aren't you? Did you lurk at all? Did you post an intro? I suppose you get your jollies from Ron/Hermione too...do you?

 

Troll methinks. Best thing will always and forever be when Harry first arrives in Grimmauld Place and they talk about Snape. Goes something like:

"Snapes down in the kitchen"

"Git." muttered Fred

"He's on our side now!" cried Hermione.

"He's still a git"

Lulz, forever and ever.

 

WTF? Number two makes me want to vomit. I'll admit that 1, 3, and 5 have merit, but I don't see what is so great about number 4. I mean there isn't anything wrong with it, but pretty much any scene with Albus making a bunch of fully trained wizards look like a bunch of first years beats that one. I still can't get over number 2 though. You did know that most people other than fangirls hate that pairing, right? You weren't confused into thinking this was the the worst scene thread were you?

 

Not to be Rude either, But no where did I see something posted that said you have to have an intro.

I do agree with the rest of your post.

 

Well, it might sound trivial and very offbeat, but the fact that Slughorn (who was presented as something of a master at self-preservation in HBP) was actually dueling (even as only part of a triad) with Voldemort.

 

I'm going to admit something: when Cedric kicked the bucket, I laughed.

He was a stellar student, brave, skilled, and loyal to his many friends. Two words, and bye-bye. To me, that's hilarious; it was one of my favorite moments in the series. (It was proved that Rowling wasn't a complete coward, but that's neither here nor there.)

 

Book 1- The whole Hogwarts Express part.
Book 2- I didn't like this book.
Book 3- Shrieking Shack scene
Book 4- Ron and Harry's pathetic attempts at finding a date.
Book 5- Bellatrix's intro. Best part, by far.
Book 6- Luna and Harry's "date"
Book 7- The part with the Snitch, and the Stone. Sentimental crap, but I liked it.

 

My top 10, not in order though.

1. Harry kill the Basilisk and Riddle's soul in the Chamber of Secret (CoS)
2. Aerial Fight (DH)
3. The First Task (GoF)
4. Voldemort's rebirth (GoF)
5. Dumbledore vs. Voldemort in MoM (OotP)
6. The walk to dead (DH)
7. First Corporeal Pratonus (PoA)
8. "You're a wizard, Harry" (SS)
9. Cruciatus Curse aganist Bellatrix (OotP)
10. Dumbledore's Death (HBP)

 

1. Dumbledore (to Snape): "Sometimes I think we sort too early"
2. Fawkes vs the Basilisk in COS was rather good
3. Harry vs the Horntail
4. AD vs TR in the ministry
5. Voldemort rising from the cauldron at the end of the rebirth ritual

 

1) Dumbledore's death. Best shock ever.
2) Voldemort's rebirth - who said this was a kids' book?
3) Preparation for the Battle of Hogwarts in DH. You know, fighting Snape, activating the armour etc. I thought that was pretty awesome, even if the battle was surprisingly devoid of violence and death. (Oh noes, 2 major characters die OFFSCREEN and Fred Weasley dies in an explosion of unexplained cause).
4) Harry walking into the forest to go die in DH. Bit hackneyed, but it was very well done and didn't feel retarded while I read it.
