    How about some film quotes adapted for HP:

    'This is Miss Lily Evans, I'm James Potter... We rob banks'

    'Are you crying? There's no crying in Quidditch!'

    'Hedwig, I've got a feeling we're not in Hogwarts anymore'

    'A man who doesn't spend time with his family can never be a real man' or maybe 'I'm gunna make him an offer he can't refuse'.
    I kinda imagine the Blacks in their hay day as like "the family".

    'After fifteen minutes I wanted to marry her, and after half an hour I completely gave up the idea of stealing her purse.'

    'I know, you did send me back to the future, but I'm back -- I'm back FROM the future ...'

    I'm sure people could find even better ones

    Okay, let's say that we actually get there. What's it gonna be like?

    Hermione:
    200 degrees in the sunlight, minus 200 in the shade, canyons of razor-sharp rock, unpredictable gravitational conditions, unexpected eruptions, things like that.

    Ron:
    Okay, so the scariest environment imaginable. Thanks. That's all you gotta say, scariest environment imaginable.

    Uh, if people want to? And the quote is short enough to go on the poll, then sure. Remember if you win your prompt is whatever you want it to be.

    But apart from maybe recognizing Wizard of Oz and Back to the Future, I got nothing for the rest of that. But then I'm bad at pop culture and probably haven't seen most of it.

    It's undoubtedly early to be thinking about Q1 for 2019, but I found this quote and I think the next prompt should be Harry Potter and the Bazooka Wand Gun.

    If there are any prompts that really 'strike a chord' with you then mention those in a separate post and if it gets a lot of thumbs up then you can expect to see it in a poll.

    - "Mr Potter. Is that a wand in your pocket or are you just happy to see me?"

    - "Neville, lets make a deal. You will not ask why I'm carrying a tied up Draco Malfoy and I will not ask why you are naked."

    For a second I thought Vlad died and was worried. Instead, I found out he said some suspect stuff in the Trump thread. Some prompts in honor of Vlad.

    -Make Hogwarts Great Again
    -How Harry got Daphne banned from Hogwarts
    -"Seniority is not a shield here, Severus"

    Edit: Oh wtf permabanned. Big oof.
