well, i dunno. remember gandalf the grey in lord of the rings? he 'dies' too, but returns, having morhped into gandalf the white.

maybe D had to die in order to combat V on some level? i don'tthink we've seen the last of D though

I hope not...(omg...I'm getting all teary just thinking about him!)

i know. did you read about how J.K. Rowling decided to kill D off because her parent died in real life around the time she was writing book six?

Actually, I thought her mom died when she was writing the first book, and that influenced her to kill Harry's parents?

I agree with you that Snape is actually doing D's bidding, and that he is actually a double agent. Whether or not he actually killed D is obviously the million dollar question. I tend to think D is dead, but that he planned the whole thing. I'm certain he knew what he was doing.

As for the whole question as to whether or not 7 will be the last book, I tend to think Rowling intends it to be, but I'll bet she'll eventually revist him. Too much story potential to have Harry and his friends disappear after becoming full-fledged wizards.

I was reading at work when I got there and I cried for 20 minutes, had to go in the bathroom and wash my face. When I went to the movie and saw him I got sad all over again.

I knowwwww

bawl

Remember when Harry was carrying him out of the cave and he kept telling D. "you'll be alright" and D said to him..."I know...I have you with me"
cry

yes

Oh I really hoped that D wasn't dead but when harry went into his office and he was in the picture I had to accept it bawl

My daughter thinks that RAB is Sirius brother..He is briefly mentioned and those are his initials.

I hope Sirius comes back though.

OOOOHHHHH! It could be! Is he still alive, though? Is he a Death Eater? The possiblities are killing me!

I am not sure, my daughter is the expert she has read the books over and over, I can ask her though nod

Maybe he knew that horcrux potion was going to kill him...plus, do we ever find out what happened to his burned-up hand?

but I'm about 99% certain I'm right, so it might spoil it too much.

I mirror EVERYTHING ya'll have said.

I could not believe I was so sad when Dumbledore was killed. I had to re-read it a couple of time for it to sink in. bawl

And I also got sad seeing him in HP IV and I wanted to whomp Snape seeing him in HP IV.

I also have ideas about book seven. I just keep thinking "Hurry up and publish it!!! I want to know what's going to happen!" But I don't want her to rush it and write a crummy story/ending.

I'm firmly planted in denial

Hell, I think we all agree that we want to hear your theories! Just post "possible spoiler" and it's cool. Besides, it's always possible that you COULD be wrong (although, I've yet to see that be the case).

C'mon, man, tell us already!

Totally agree, and the mystery of what happened to his hand HAS to be a big part of it.

I thought the same thing! Malfoy must have bought it because he ended up using something similar the night D died.
