Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows

Meh.

[AJ]

Ooooooooooh...

...

where did you get that from?

"Deathly Hallows" is not bringing up anything on google for me. I'm sure it would if it were big news.

It was revealed on her website. Doesn't give too much away though. Damn.

I am expecting a death in a hallow.

This is the bit where Harry and Ron on the way on some greater quest travel through marshland where the corpses of young wizards who had died in years before haunt. I suspect at one stage Harry will fall in and be rescued by some strange creature they picked up on the way. We've read it all before people

[Gongsun Zan]

This is the last book, right?

Hopefully it would be better than the last two.

[Nerf]

What kind of name is Deathly Hallows? :ohwell:

[TEOL]

Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows

That isn't even a sentence >_>

[Nerf]

Haha, I love you for sounding just like my English teacher's sarcy self.

[ONO]

Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows

That isn't even a sentence >_>

[TEOL]

Oh, come on. I mean, adverb-transitive verb as a clause? Puh-lease.

I read the first 4, they were all pretty good. I'll start 5 in early 2007, but my friends tell me that 5 and 6 suck.

[The Dork Knight]

Snape killed Dumbledore.

[PkmnTrainerJ]

I thought six was okay - Half Blood Prince, but Order Of The Phoenix was meh.

[ONO]

It's really went down hill since four to be honest. I loved the last book; no problems with that one at all.

[METALMAN]

I agree. They peaked at the 4th then went downhill. It pissed me of when Harry had all those tantrums.

[GoGo Yubari]

The 6th book was okay. Nothing amazing, but it was a decent enough read, aside from the ridiculously forced Harry/Ginny subplot. Book 5... um. Hooray for Emo Goth Harry, pointless character deaths, and nothing particularly interesting aside from the existence of Luna Lovegood and the twins being awesome.

I didn't like the movies because I like reading about the everyday things like classes and stuff. The fourth film was completely focused on the plot, without any sub-plots or comic relief. I suppose its fair enough as its such a huge book, but I like the full thing.

[sirdavinator]

Meh. I'll read it just because I want to see the ending. The other books were all average, if a bit of a chore to read.

[Corizzle]

Snape killed Dumbledore.

[KingOfMyWorld]

I find the name to be stupid, the book should be good though considering it's the last one. I liked the 2nd through the fourth one myself. The First was slow to get into and the fifth just wasn't all that grand it dragged on and on. I enjoyed the 6th book for what it was. I'm still under the belief the boy will die.

I dunno, I just find the name to be dumb.

[ONO]

I hate the movies myself. I absolutely hated the Goblet Of Fire (Movie version). I loved the GOF book, absolutely adored it and it's probably my favourite book of the series, and the movie ripped it apart in my opinion. It was boring, it lacked that magic appeal (no pun intended), it just generally came out very poor on screen, which is a shame as it was an amazing book.

[Guest Makegamesnotwar]

Any good theories on the name yet? To me it seems that the Deathly Hallows sounds like a creature or a name for a group and it is likely that the author would go about swerving us with it not being a place as most I've read has theorized. Meh. Whatever, I'll most likely end up reading it anyway as I did the others, spending an afternoon polishing it off. I've read all of them and it seems to me that Emo Harry is going to be even more prevalent(I don't think that Harry would be written as having totally gone through the stages of grief by the next year or so when it picks up, if it follows the trend of the other books and the author seems to be writing Harry as a darker character to make the book more "mature", whatever that means.)

I don't hate Emo Harry as much as others seem to- it was a nice change of pace considering how death follows Harry around and one would crack a bit under the strain of having person after person killed because you are still alive and people are trying to get you. Emo Harry has his uses.

Well, that's just my little bit of thought on it.

I guess I'll go on to reading the books again around the time this one comes out, just to get the whole arc.

Maybe she typoed it and it's supposed to be "Deathly Hallo's".
