Nah- she's gonna make millions either way.

On that note, I also see her publisher pushing her to pull a 'Kill Bill'... Imagine if you're the publisher and realize that there's only one Harry Potter cash-cow book left in the series. And knowing that there's probably SO much material that needs to be covered the publisher pushes JKR to release 'Year 7' in two parts. Something like 'Year 7: Semester 1' and 'Year 7: Semester 2'. This way the series is briefly extended and the publisher can sell two books at a SRP of $30 or whatever. If she released them 6 months to a year apart us the audience would be salivating for the conclusion!

Assuming all the Horcruxes get destroyed, how would Harry kill Voldemort? Avada Kedavera? If so, would he be forgiven for using an unforgivable curse on a wizard as dark as Voldemort?

Part of me thinks it would be cool if they were somehow forced to not use magic and just fight each other in visceral hand-to-hand combat to the death. Maybe that would be considered a bit too violent for a children's book, even Harry Potter, but remember that Harry tried to do that to Sirius in POA.

Not that that is going to stop you from dreaming… Only in this case, Gaffer is actually a guy.

Maybe after he destroys all of his Horcruxes, it will reveal Voldemort for what he really is under his stern and image: a little boy who still afraid of the dark.

I thought Wormtongue killed saruman? (at least that's what happened in the book).

I hope Harry lives. It would suck if he died.

Let me ask you all an ethical question - I do not like Rupert Grint's performance as Ron Weasley. Is that wrong?
I'd like a qui-gon jinn please with an Obi-Wan to go.

Red heads ROCK. Blondes do not rock. Nuff said.

hahahaha yes your correct, but in the movie he stables saruman and then saruman falls off the balcony on to one of the big spikes on a water wheel, it was only shown in the EE versions.

Voldemort Has a New Helper
Friday August 4 11:23 AM ET

The actress has been cast in Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix as a Death Eater.

By Dennis Michael, FilmStew.com

The cast is starting to assemble for the fifth Harry Potter picture, and Helena Bonham Carter is joining the magic. Bonham Carter is set to play Bellatrix Lestrange, a servant of the Evil Lord Voldemort, and apparently fairly unpleasant in her own right, being a Death Eater. Imelda Stanton is also joining the Hogwarts family, as Delores Umbridge, and George Harris has been announced for the role of Shaklebolt.

David Yates is taking on the task of bringing The Order of the Phoenix to the screen from Michael Goldenberg's script. The fifth go-round for the fantasy series is targeted at that increasingly popular destination, summer 2007.

Meanwhile, Harry Potter authoress J.K. Rowling made a rare appearance in New York this week, reading excerpts from her work-in-progress, the final installment of the seven-volume saga of Harry Potter. Panel participant Stephen King organized the charity reading, for Doctors Without Borders and the Haven Foundation, and author John Irving was also part of the show. In the panel discussion, she discussed writing the final Harry novel, and commented on earlier reports that two, unnamed major characters will die in the book. (King, a fan of the series, commented that he hopes Harry isn't one of them.) She also told the audience that the experience of finishing the Harry Potter saga was a wistful one, and that she would go through a mourning period before thinking about what else she'll be writing. The fact that the Harry Potter series has made her one of the wealthiest women in England will probably give her the luxury of taking her time ! to find a new subject.

When does Hermione turn 18?

I thought you guys might get a kick out of this.

[EDIT]

Oh, this is pretty funny, too.

I'm wracking my brain about where the "leprechaun" soundtrack came from. I know I know it, but I can't place it, dammit.

[2nd Edit] Nevermind. I figured it out....LOL!

<span class=“Italics”>MeBeJedi: Sadly, I believe the prequels are beyond repair.
<span class=“Bold”>JediRandy: They’re certainly beyond any repair you’re capable of making.</span></span>

<span class=“Italics”>MeBeJedi: You aren’t one of us.
<span class=“Bold”>Go-Mer-Tonic: I can’t say I find that very disappointing.</span></span>

<span class=“Italics”>JediRandy: I won’t suck as much as a fan edit.</span>

If you want to get technical, Harry Potter is set in the past, so Hermione is probably already 18.

She was 18 on September 19th, 1997.

I think were talking about Emma Watson. I had a crush on her since the first movie came out.

Riddle me this: How is the birthdate of Hermione Granger not HP related?
