The OFFICIAL funeral thread (Spoiler Alert)

Started by LordYomi134 pages

Yeah i got the fact that it was a trio of fire, i just didn't know what purpose it served.

He's made many mistakes, Dumbledore has. But he's always tried to make up for them, and prevent the same mistakes from happening. I know there have been times where I've been incredibly angry at Dumbledore, but I still favored him as a character.

Rest in Peace, Albus Dumbledore. May you watch over Harry and Hogwarts always. ^^

I knew he was gonna die from the moment the book said he had the burnt hand

a great character- i'll never forget you

Ok, here's an interesting thought. We talk about all the similarities between LoTR and HP. In this book they travel over the water with all the dead bodies in it...Frodo, Sam and Golem walking through the bog...Gandalf dies but returns...Hmmm. I've never seen two characters with so many parallels as Gandalf and Dumbledore. I say Dumbledore isn't all the way dead. Or perhaps he's found that he can be more effective dead.

Oh, and duh...forgot my original thought to this thread. I didn't cry at the end of the book, but I had some really lousy dreams that night. And I wasn't in the best of moods the next day.

i could tell tht dumbledores future was bleak as soon as i opened the book ...he didnt seem himself his charachter seemed to change and weaken through the book , i think he knew his fate...i also think that dumbledore knew what dracos mission was and i think he also knew that draco would not kill him so in an attempt he told snape when the situation arises snape must kill dumbledore to spare dracos life...i think this is what the cnoversation that dumbledore and snape had during the book

I believe JKR doesn't base her books on other books. You will always find similarities between books.

Agree.

i also agree Plus At the begining when they were talking about draco having to kill someone...I thought "It has to be dumbledor" because DD and harry are Voldemorts only big threats and Voldemort wouldn't make draco Kill harry-he wanted to-so anyway I was thinking "well, maybe Draco will wimp out and not kill Him --and he did. BUT Once those hands came together and formed an unbreakable vov-BOOM I knew it. Plus I could also tell Dumbledor would die because he was really the only adult figure left to help harry--and what has happened to all the others?
I miss him, but heck, it was gonna happen somer or later--plus i think it makes the story more dramatic and sad.

I knew Dumbledore would die in one of the books. He is to powerful. Although I saw it coming in this book, and i kind of wish it was more of shock. Oh well.

yep...but at least jkr gave him a little chance of survival...look closely and you will see it

" Here, we do stand, in front of the white tomb, moaning for the white wizard, the sorrow comes from our chests. We know Headmaster, you are not dead, you have only turned to a star, still blinking on us every night when your sister the moon comes out. And as Potter said: you won't be gone from here, until there are students (fans) loyal to you! And so are we. Rest in Peace Great man!"

ICHT

Dumbledor was a great charcter...But I was very surprised i thought i was dreaming when I read that...I heard somewhere that dd was one of jkr favorite characters...then again she once said she wasn't sad if she had to cut off one of her favorite charcters...

i think lupin may play a bigger part ..they may link up because tonk is a black member and harry has the house so i dont know theyr may be a possibility there.....plus i think for definite that the locket in the house of black does have a part in the next book whether its a big or small part

It was so sad..........Dumbledore's death...........I didn't cry though.

anyone wanna say a few words?

The words I would like to say to remember our beloved Dumbledore are one's in which he, so elegantly uttered himself, "nitwit, oddment, blubber, tweak" We couldn't have said it better ourselves. Rest in peace dear Dumbledore. Our teacher, our protector, our friend.

You knew what this thread was. Why come in here if you're just going to bash other people.
