Is Dumbledore .... *MAJOR* Spoiler, that I didn't want to know, thanks.

[G-MAN2004]

I reckon he is dead and tbqh Gandalf owned Dumbeldore so i don't mind..

and I remained upset about it all the rest of the day.

Awww, was he upset because little Dumbeldore died

There is shedloads of back story available that only becomes obvious when you read the earlier books after having read the later ones.

True, but nothing to do with horcruxes, besides the possibility - as you say - of the diary or basilisk being a horcrux.

Once you've read the last book, you'll probably find loads of horcux references in the earlier books, you just don't know what they are yet.

I swear there's a line in one of the earlier books that goes something like "Thought the Dark Lord's soul is shattered...", although I may be wrong..

 

[ben_j_davis]

Think its safe to say that Riddle's diary was a Horcrux, afterall it did have the spirit of Riddle/Lord Voldemort in it.

 

[dymetrie]

Speculation is all well and good, but I don't think JK Rowling does conspiracy.

He's dead, that's it, nuff said.

The probability of there being at least 1 Horcrux linked to Harry is quite likely, let's see who can figure out what it is first

Who fancies some Owl soup, followed by roast Owl, with Owl ice cream to follow?

[escape sanity]

Dobby? Could explain why he is so much more confident than most house elves - there is some non-house elf in his soul.

 

[ben_j_davis]

Ok so possible final book spoiler predictions

in dark


Dumbledor isn't dead and comes back along with Snape to help Harry defeat Voldemort and the Death Eaters

Wormtail helps Harry but dies in the process (because Harry saved his life in book 3)

Harry dies (probably while killing Voldemort) - JKR overheard saying that 'Harry is dead' to a friend)

wrong i'm afraid sir..

although I am peckish now

is that wrong?

 

[Feek]

Sorry Ben, I don't buy that for a couple of reasons.

1) See my post 2.

2) I don't believe she discusses the storyline with anyone apart from editors. There's too much risk, the 'friend' could well be tempted to leak the story for lots of money.

[dymetrie]

Have a Twootbar

cheers lad...

not the answer though

 

[ben_j_davis]

It's all rumours, but the well known fact is that JK is fed of writing Harry Potter stories and wants to do something completely different, so doing what i mentioned would see logical. Happened in Sherlock Holmes.

 

[Spacky]

cheers lad...

not the answer though

You kinda asked for that

 

[eLbot]

I don't believe that for a second. Although we know from the prophecy that 'neither can live while the other survives' there's no evidence that Harry himself is a horcrux. Dumbledore has already destroyed one horcrux and RAB (probably Regulus Black) has removed another. I think that Dumbledore would have known if Harry were a horcrux and would have told him.

K.

I very much beg to differ;

Part of the criteria for being a horcrux is to be slightly damaged. The locket was broken, the diary was torn… Harry has a very well known sign of damage. The whole reason he can’t be killed by voldamourt is because he is an “accidental” horcrux, which also explains why he has so much magical ability and can speak Parselmouth.

But then I don’t really follow the books that much so may have missed something blindingly obvious that smashes that theory to pieces

I would be fuming if someone on this forum didnt already ruin it for me.

Engage your brain before posting.

Could any amount of pointy sticks make up for it?

 

[ben_j_davis]

Just think its turning into the X-Files story - Mulder believes in Aliens which in-fact is just a goverment cover-up of something else that turns out to be a cover up of a cover-up i.e. there actually is Aliens.

Just like with Snape is he evil or isnt he?

If he really was evil would have stopped Quiril getting the Philophers stone (in the first book) eventhough lord voldemort was attactched the back of his head?

No i'm pretty sure Snape is good.

 

[Nana]

omg at all the poeple giving the OP grief about this thread. Get a grip. I thank the OP for linking to a pretty cool site.

The books been out for ages, spoilers occur *before* an official release or on the day of it.

And I can't believe that no-one actually figured out for themselves that DD made a horcrux.. it was completely obvious at the end of HBP.. I didn't need a website to help me understand a book intended for children, unlike some, apparently

AH but thats been answered from the Evil Snape point of view, he had no idea that Voldermort has possed Quiril.
