Miscellaneous Potter Tidbits
First of all, I’ve updated my review of Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix–check out my corrected observations on Kreacher, Grawp, and Occlumency lessons with Snape.
Second, Porpoise drew my attention to a set of predictions for Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows that claims Hagrid is almost certain to die–a claim based on an alchemical formula. According to said formula, apparently, the combination of black, white, and red signifies transformation. So far we’ve had the deaths of Black (Sirius) and White (Albus Dumbledore), so now we just need red (Rubeus Hagrid). The source is actually a little vague about whether this is from alchemy or tarot, but if it’s alchemy, it seems like a good theory. After all, Rowling knows a bit about alchemical history, as the British title Harry Potter and the Philosopher’s Stone reminds us.
Third . . . have you ever thought lolcats were just too cute and fluffy? Then try LOLDEMORTS, courtesy of Dormouse! He-Who-Must-Not-Be-Named as you’ve never seen him before.
