She's gonna kill off someone else! Dammit, don't tell us these things. That pisses me off more than just the fact that she killed someone off to begin with. And it was crummily written to boot. Maybe Dumbledore will finally bite it. He's old and shit.
-
And I think my poll's more likely than CNN's...
-
Ugh. I wish I hadn't read that now. If she keeps killing major characters, it's going to get really old, really fast, even if she is on the last two books.
-
Ha, so you must suffer. But she really doesn't have to make stupid announcements like that. Most fans already know she wanted to do a set number. If you're approaching the end of some super dangerous conflict, people are gonna start dying. That's usually a given in most stuff. She should've left it a surprise, instead of sacrificing it as publicity bait.
-
You know who I want to die? That one useless kid.....I forget his name.....
-
When I first glimpsed at the headline, I thought that Rowling had died. That would have been major suckage to Potter fans.
-
She kills Snape, I'm closing the book. I'm not even going to read the rest. :angry:
-
If she kills Snape, I wouldn't bat an eyelash. The guy's starting to bug me. He's always so negative or angry or pissed or cynical, he acts like he hasn't gotten sex for a millenium.
Maybe they'll kill off the NEXT Defense of the Dark Arts teacher :D
-
he acts like he hasn't gotten sex for a millenium.
HA! There are curtains around the student's beds for a reason! :o
-
Quit being babies.
-
*hits Megs* Shut up!
Actually, I think the next person to die might be Snape.
-
I think. that it's not worth speculating about. We're not talking aobut someone predictable and corporate-driven, or someone crazy and pretentious. This is J.K. Rowling, and she's a good writer.
Except for that she revealed someone was gonna die in the next book. :rolleyes: That's the type of spoiler that no one can conceivably avoid.
-
I hope she kills off you!!
-
Bitch, I'm temporarily consoled by the fact that she said "character" and not "major character" like she did for Sirius Black. I think it's Neville. B)
-
Huh? Wormtail isn't dead? Refresh my memory, please. I forgot what I read in Prisoner of Azkaban.
-
If you thought that, then you must be illiterate. Wormtail got away. Harry angsts about it for the rest of the book. Then Wormtail reappeared in Goblet of Fire, as Voldemort's henchman/private nurse.
-

That little Colin boy who kept following Harry around like a parasite?
She kills Snape, I'm closing the book. I'm not even going to read the rest.
I would be tempted, but I think I'd be so curious I'd have to keep reading. I'm hoping Snape lives and doesn't do some "redeemed character who subsequently sacrifices his life in an idiotic way" bs at the end.
Bitch, I'm temporarily consoled by the fact that she said "character" and not "major character" like she did for Sirius Black. I think it's Neville.
That's a good point. I wouldn't mind so much if it were Neville.
Except for that she revealed someone was gonna die in the next book. That's the type of spoiler that no one can conceivably avoid.
Of course it is! Why? Because no one's saying WHO. If they can keep the WHO part a secret, they could've kept the fact that someone dies a secret as well. Publicity bait. They want it to make news and then get everyone to go out and make webpages and threads that keep Harry Potter on their minds as they try to guess. I don't think the fandom's died down or anything. I think a more than sufficient number of people would've gobbled up the next book without being lured in by the "buy me and see who dies" tactic done with Order of the Phoenix. Weakness!
I don't want to imagine the earthquake of spasms around the world should Rowling die before finishing her books. Maybe she keeps notes and someone else could finish it....
-
Um, you still know that someone's going to die.
-
i think the one whos gonna die is harry's god father
-
man, that last movie pissed me off. Gary Oldman turned out to be a good guy and the god damn stupid fucking ass rat was evil. Very VERY LAME!! :angry:
-
So . . . Harry Potter, huh?
-
god i wish it was harry. he was such an ass in the last book...it just pissed me off when i read it
-
No, I mean . . . uh . . . I don't know a damn thing, but the Lego sets look kinda cool. Hooray!
-
The lego Spider-man 2 sets were lame! BIONICLE SUCKS TOO!! But I like the movies.
-
But it's mo'fuk'n Sp'r'm'n!
-

In case there's someone who hasn't read it yet. . .
*SPOILER*!
Sirius died in Order of the Pheonix.
-
Bionicle does not suck, you black asshole.

who is sirius???

Xevoz are the better toy. Sorry. it's just the truth.

Sirius Black is Harry's godfather. You know, the one who you said is going to die next. Which is kind of impossible for reasons stated in my previous post.
-
she's 2 movies behind. give her a break.
-
No one's talking about the movies. The movies suck.
-
the movies are the only thing that counts.
-
The suckage ratio of any movie is automatically mitigated to some degree by the mere presence of Alan Rickman.
-
Speaking of which isnt it time for a GALAXY QUEST 2?
-

...as well as by the presence of young, supple English lads.... depending upon who's watching.

Nooooooooooo :( :( :(
*cries*
-
Now read the book and find out the sucky way he died!
-
He didn't even, really.
-
But he did. He was hit with a "green light," remember? Only after that did he fall behind the veil. Duuh.
-
He might have countered it, or something.
-
How do you counter the Killing Curse?
-
Um. You press R2 as it's being cast. :blink:
-
are you guys talking about Harry Potter or St*r WarzzZZ?
-
We're actually talking about Star Fox Advetures as it turns out.

ok I'll talk about the Gamecube games I bought this week. I got Pikmin 2, Paper Mario2, Soul Calibur 2, and Crash Nitro Kart. And O love them all. Since I haven't really played much of Paper Mario 2 yet, I'd have to say that Pikmin 2 is favorite of the lot. It's differently more fun than the original and I'm not so nervous about my Pikmin dying like I as with the first game. Soul Calibur 2 is alittle too easy. I was kicking all kinds of ass with Link which didnt feel. I suck evry fighting game I have ever played except Super Smash Bros. Melee. With that game it took me many long nights to get as good as I am. So, I like Soul Calibur 2 but I probably wont play it alot.
-
Sssshhhhoulda bought the Xbox version.
-
why? I dont want to play as Spawn.
-
Right, because you think that Link fits in to the Soul Edge universe better. And you want a shitty controller.
-
You can't honestly tell me the Xbox controller is good for fighting games.

That and Spawn doesn't fit well with his fetish for Elven boys.
-
You can't honestly tell me the Xbox controller is good for fighting games.
Um. Yes I can. <_< It's better for point-of-view shooter and tournament fighters than any other controller ever made, and inadequate for everything else. The D-pad is inarguably the best one ever, and that's what's mos timportant regarding fighters.

The X-Box controller is the WORST. The only bad thing about the Cube's controller is the D-Pad that sticks out like a third nipple. That thing sucks.
-
And everything else on it, save the triggers.
-
No, not really. I prefer it to the perhaps worst controller since the Dreamcast.

It's gay, don't worry about it.

A tiny Astronaut uses an army of smurf like plant creatures called Pikmin to collect treasure.
-
awwww<3
-

That's ironic considering the Xbox controller kinda resembles the dreamcast one.
-
Right. It's like you took a Dreamcast controller and decided to mold it to the shape of a hand.

That shouldn't sound sexual to me but it does.
-
or maybe you just need to get laid.
-
Eddie is doing St*r WarzzZZ Battlefront now. We need to get an Xbox also to expand our borrowing capabilities. :P
-
or maybe you just need to get laid.
No, that can't be it.
-
X-Men Legends... KICKS ASS!
-
or maybe you just need to get laid.
No, that can't be it.
The lack of an emoticon in nuri's post gives me the willies.

Damn it!! That game better come out on Gamecube soon!
-
:wacko:
-
eat some dark chocolate then.
-
I wish they still had the dark chocolate peanut butter cup. Fuckers. Maybe the dark chocolate kit kat hasn't completely disappeared yet.
-
Health food stores sell the Paul Newman dark chocolate peanut butter cups - pricey but good. Think they usually go for 99 cents for package of 3.
-
right now im eating a caramel(toffee)covered apple with chocolate chips on it:-D
-
I'm eating White Rabbit candy. It > all other candy
-
Never heard of it.
-
white rabbit is sooo good! i dont like it whn its too hard
-
Yeah, the fruit kind is mean to your jaw, but the regular stuff is really great. I really hate the rice paper that the candies are wrapped in, because it never comes all the way off and kind of mess up the texture a little bit.
Nuri, White Rabbit candy is milk-flavored candy that you can buy at an Asian market for about $1 for a bag of 40. They're a little bigger than a small Tootsie roll, and the regular kind is a little softer while fruit and coconut flavors are pretty hard. It's really, really good, and you should try it.
-
I don't really like candy. I like peaches.

-
The Sheet?
-
i think she's talking about muslims.
-
God damn Shi'ites.
-
The Sunnies are the real trouble. They're the right wing christians of the Mooklem world.
-
They wrap candy in bits of Shi'ite now? :huh: Guess that's one way around the famine problem.
i dont like it whn its too hard
Tom is obviously fatigued from something. I can't believe he wasn't all over this classic Faye-ism. :P
-
Well I can't do every Fayeism. I don't wanna be a hog. But I was severely tempted.
-
It's ok we still...love you...not really.
