Half-Blood Prince = #1!
I've been casually following the "Harry Potter World Cup" that MTV organized, wherein the Potterverse characters competed in Final Four-style brackets, voted on by the fans, to see who's the best wizard/witch of all. I figured Harry winning was a foregone conclusion, but I was pleasantly surprised to see a certain greasy antihero with a thing for ( Read more... ) -
The real Deathly Hallows epilogue
This is "only" fanfiction, but it's absolutely perfect. This is what the epilogue to Deathly Hallows should have been. I didn't hate the real epilogue like many fans did, but it did leave me wanting more info and closure.
This fic not only provided all of that in a flawlessly canon-compliant way, but it reduced me to tears. harry potter - miscHP quote
The brilliant and prolific Orson Scott Card posted his analysis of Snape after HBP at this site. I'd read most if not all of it before in the Borders exclusive book "The Great Snape Debate," but I enjoyed reading it this time, too. Lots of good stuff in there, and it's especially interesting to see how Card traces Snape's development as a ( Read more... )Jo Rowling is awesome...
Quote from her website regarding the early blips of so-called spoilers floating around:
There will always be sad individuals who get their kicks from ruining other people's fun, but while sites like Leaky [The Leaky Cauldron, major fansite which has taken a strong stand against spoilers] take such an active stance against them, we may yet win. Even ( Read more... )OotP movie clips
In case anyone hasn't seen them yet, there are quite a few great clips from the upcoming Harry Potter movie over yonder. Once again I'm struck by how, although book five was my "least favorite" (though still very enjoyable), this movie looks like it's going to kick arse more than I would have expected ( Read more... )Heat, Harry and Hunters
Holy buckets of flaming monkey crap, it's hot. 92 degrees with 68 degree dewpoint? No thanks. Bleh ( Read more... )Black Temple stuff on YouTube
So I got looking around on YouTube to see what Illidan's Black Temple looks like, since it's going to be a long, long, long, long, LONG time before Skarlette ever sets foot in there.
As with all vids of this type, the background music blows majorly on most of these. Mute is your friend. ;)

I think it's awesome how many people are suddenly taking Severus/Lily seriously. XD I've lost count of how many times I've read things like "I never liked the idea before but after HBP it makes a lot of sense" or "I never thought it was plausible but now it would explain a lot ( Read more... )Potter stuff
I got the third Harry Potter computer game yesterday. I played up through the Time Turner/cast Patronus across the lake part when my mouse finally conked out for good. In the process of getting a new one hooked up I somehow locked up the computer, and after warm-booting and restarting the game, it gave me an error and kicked me to the desktop ( Read more... )
