Books are awesome, the movies suck. Hardly anyone can act in them. Sirius couldn't have been chosen better, though. Michael Gambon was a bad choice to play Dumbledore after the death of Harris. He is way too angry all of the time. though I can't see Harris actually doing any of the 'action' scenes... for example, the serach for the Locket with Harry, and the duel at the ministry.

Deathly Hallows is probably tied with HBP for my favourite. People say a lot of the deaths were unnecessary, though I only agree in the case of the Lupins and possibly Dobby. Remus and Tonks definately should have survived, though I never actually believed any of the Marauders would survive the series. The death of a Weasley was also not unexpected, so many of them had almost died in the past, though I assumed it would be Arthur or Percy. I liked the end with Voldemort and Harry, though I think there should have been another chapter that explains events directly after Voldemort's death in addition to the Headmistress' office (Assuming McGonagall took the title after his death) and the rather vague epil.

I also thought that all the marauders will die in this last book. But the deaths of Dobby and Fred were horrible. Why they needed to die? Fred and George were my favourites thourgout the series.

They needed to die to show how horrible the baddies were and to make Harry feel worse for everyone always dying in his place.

you're right. but I still don't like the fact that Fred died. the fact that Snape died is great. traitors get what they deserve.

He was just doing what Dumbledore told him to, he wasn't really a traitor. He probably could have easily killed Slughorn, or Sprout (But not Mcgonagall) in that corridor as well.

Who cares? Voldemort never even pretended he was doing the right thing for the world.

I'm probably not gonna end up reading the Deathly Hallows. There are better books to read.

that's like saying it makes sense to evaluate my chances of getting laid by Natalie Portman- Nezill
