Harry Potter: final predictions

That is exactly my view as well. Everything is set up in the way it is, if Snape is evil, Dumbledore looks like a COMPLETE moron. He may have been wise in some things, but instead of the HP's Churchill, he becomes a fool, and more Chamberlain.

I doubt Rowling would do that to Dumbledore's character.

Who pulled Tom Riddle out of the orphanage?

Dumbledore, but only because he was torturing little kids.

the poor little kids

[Japher]

the 'he' being Tom Riddle, not Dumbledore

[Imran Siddiqui]

I don't think Dumbledore looks like a complete fool at all for bringing Tom to the school. He did not realize that Tom would turn into what he became (neither did Tom, I'd imagine). Far different that trusting someone so fiercly who was decieving you the entire time.

Just text, but NTFW if you read it aloud .

Has anyone read the spoilers or the what may possibly be the ending to the new book out? There is some guy on the internet who supposedly got a copy and gives away the ending. Could it be true?

[Thue]

From what I heard then yes, the book has been leaked, and there are probably people who have posted spoilers. I haven't read the spoilers, though.

[Nostromo]

I think its true, yes. I was watching the news a couple of days ago and they talked about it. I didn't have the chance to change the channel in time, the stupid jerks said who died. Don't worry, I won't say who. I just hope its not true...

[Imran Siddiqui]

Yikes! That's really bad journalism there. I hope they got deluged with phone calls and emails.

Even worse, as far as bad journalism goes, The Times published a review of DH (they got an early copy sold to them), and the review itself apparently contains spoilers. That's really bad journalism, too.

Sorry Nostromo, it's really sad that you got the book spoiled

A friend of mine got the book today. She is going on vacation tomorrow night and won't read it before then, so I have now a little less than 20 hours to read it!

You'll get sued for violating an embargo, or something

In the paper Rawling is pleading for people to not spoil the book's ending. Evidently there have been some copies offered for sale on eBay.
