"sorry!...but you're funny!"

I love the new book for the Sorcerer's Stone but I'm not buying it because I already own it! :P

A couple questions that have been bugging me lately:

 

1. Did Snape make the unbreakable vow before or after Dumbledore told Snape to kill him?

 

In the chapter "the prince's tale" of DH's, Dumbledore asks Severus if he is the natural successor to draco in the act of him(dumbledore)...and snape only pauses and says something to the effect of "that is the dark lord's plan, I think."

 

My intuition guesses that the unbreakable vow happened first, which made dumbledore's request so ironic. But the books are very unclear as to when the events occured. One might assume HBP works chronologically, and the opening scene with narcissa happened first, but dumbledore's hand is already damaged by the time he arrives at the dursley's. Surely it would put snape in a slightly better light if he knew dumbledore was doomed before vowing to furfill the task of killing him...what do you guys think?

 

2. What is the deformed, infant-like creature crying in the "King's Cross" chapter?

 

I don't really expect an obvious answer this...it's more interpretive which makes it all the more fascinating. Rowling doesn't even offer a lot of clues about it, dumbledore's comments about it are restricted to very few words. This may be my favorite chapter of the whole series, just the way the dialogue is so perfectly and carefully placed. and the fact that this ambiguous element is there is very intriguing. How do you guys interpret it?

Unless you want me to speak in portuguese and then you use one of those translation sites :P

I don't know, but I think I saw her explain this once. I think it's supposed to represent Voldemort, and the small amount of human left in him. It's very deep and like you said, up to interpretation, but I see it as a symbol of Voldemort.

Speak as freely as you can, we're pretty good at inferring words that aren't perfectly correct.:)

Aren't harry's eyes supposed to be green, and ron's...blue? Not the other way around?!?!

Just saw this thread... HP is one of my addictions. My fave character is Sirius Black. :D I used to hate Snape but after reading the last book, I've forgiven him (a bit) for all his cruelty to Sirius (and Harry of course).

I'll go with "Hello"

 

WHich is your fav HP book and movie?

LOL This is the harry potter thread so I guess you really better go with "hello."

 

My fave book is the Prisoner of Azkaban mainly because of Sirius Black and The Deathly Hollows. For the movie, I'd go with The Goblet of Fire. :D

Yay! Another HP nut!:rolleyes:

 

Or rather, a Potter potty.:rolleyes:

Yup. I hereby decree that henceforth, all Harry Potter addicts should be referred to as "Potties"!!:P

Fine w/me:cool:

My poor Cedric :(

It was my favorite book. Order of the phoenix(movie) gets a bad rap too often though, it was better in some respects, and overall they get progressively better.

The Goblet of Fire seems to be the most satisfying, it has summed up the book better than the other movies.

 

I hated the Prisoner of Azkaban movie. It is my favorite book and the movie is very disappointing. For the "order of the phoenix," it seems incomplete but of course its understandable.
