Does any1 think it stinks now that Dumbledore is dead...?

Question

I dont really like that Dumbledore is dead... he used to be my favorite character. And on JK Rowlings website she confirmed that Dumbledore would not come back to life in any way, shape, or form. I mean, now that Dumbledore is dead, who is going to be Harry's fatherlike figure??? Cuz Serious is dead and obviously so are his real parents. The weasleys could be his family but no one there is really like a father to him. I still want to read the book but i still think that it wont be quite so cool when Dumbledore is gone. Does anyone else agree???

Answer 1

In a traditional kind of story arc, Dumbledore has to go away. And it's supposed to be sad.

But in a traditional kind of story arc, Harry then BECOMES Dumbledore in many ways. So in a way Dumbledore isn't really gone... like the phoenix, he's just returned in a different form.

Answer 2

I do agree in a way.. I was soooooooooo sad and Heart broken that he had died.. I thought noooo way.. Dubledore has to be there to guide Harry through this.. BUT I know even though he is dead there is more than meets the eye in the Wizarding World.... SO i have hope... I still cant WAIT to read book 7. I just hope i get all the detail and info into dumbledores past and into harry's parents past to help us..

CAnt wait to read... Over excited fan!!!

Answer 3

I hated it that she killed him off. He was my favorite too. I guess she did it because it was time for Harry to grow up and stop relying on a father figure. I will read the next book though. I think it will be still be good. Have to find out how it all ends. Hope the media is wrong about Harry dying in the last book. That would really stink.

Answer 4

For the people who say that JK Rowling doesn't want us to speculate, they are getting the wrong idea... She doesn't want the story to be revealed to readers before the release date... that's a real spoiler. Theorizing and speculating isn't a true spoiler because the answer is not necessarily THE answer. Cedric Diggory, when hit by Avada Kedavra, was spread-eagled on the ground after being hit... that doesn't happen if someone simply crumples, so I think there is evidence that the Avada Kedavra does have an impact and repulsion force when used. Nonverbal spells have been encouraged by Snape, but only when facing an enemy with whom you are dueling, so that the enemy cannot predict your spells. Snape had no reason to conceal the curse, knowing that Dumbledore couldn't block it.

Answer 5

i can't understand how Harry is going to continue. dumbledore is supposed to be his mentor and always be there to help them find their way. The story doesn't feel the same. what is harry potter without dumbledore. i've always really liked dumbledore.

Answer 6

It always sucks when your father (or grandfather -- Dumbledore was more a grandfather figure to Harry, given his age) dies, but life goes on, you know? Harry is going to have to grow up and make it on his own now.

Answer 7

i hate the fact that he died, and i really thought JK would bring him back, the book wont be the same without Dumbledore. Im getting the 7th book but im scared to read it because more people are gonna die. i wanna read the book but a part of me doesnt, of course i will, but i dont wann kno who dies.....

Answer 8

of course!! I cried when Dumbledore died. I mean come on!! So sad!
*tear*

Answer 9

The Deathly Hallows are Harry's invisibility cloak which has been passed down from generation to generation, a stone that brings back the dead which is hidden in the snitch Harry first caught in his mouth left to him by Dumbledore in his will and the elder wand hidden in Dumbledore's tomb, which is taken by Voldemort.

R.A.B. is actually Sirius' brother Regulus in spite from what Voldemort did to him. After he died in the cave he left the task to Kreacher to destroy the locket but Kreacher was unable to even open it.

The horcruxes are the locket stolen by Kreacher then by Mundugus then stolen by Umbridge then taken by Harry.Destroyed by Ron with the Gryfindor sword.

The Hufflepuff goblet hidden in Bellatrix Lestrange's vault in Gringotts. Destroyed by Hermoine with a Basilisk fang.

The Diadem of Ravenclaw hiddden in the room of requirement next to where Harry hid the Half-blood Prince potion book. Destroyed by Crabbe's cursed fire spell.

Nangini, Voldemort's snake. Destroyed by Neville with the Grryfindor sword.

And finally Harry's scar. Destroyed with Voldemort's killing curse.

Snape was actually working with Dumbledore the whole time, Dumbledore himslef planned his own death, the curse on his hand was growing more and more every day. Snape was truly repenting sending Voldemort after Harry's mom, he was in love with her, his patronus was even a doe, just like Lily Potter, Harry's mother.

Here's who really dies.

muggle studies teacher killed be Voldemort
Hedwig killed by a Death Eater
Mad-eye killed by a Death Eater
Tonk's father killed by Death Eaters
the minister of magic killed by Voldemort and Death Eaters
Wormtail killed by his own silver hand
Dobby killed by Bellatrix LeStrange
Crabbe by his own 'cursed fire' spell
Fred killed by a Death Eater at the final battle at Hogwarts
Lupin (not specified, killed at the final battle)
Tonks (side by side with her husband Lupin)
Snape killed by Voldemort
Colin Crevey by Death Eaters at the final battle
Bellatrix Lestrange killed by Mrs. Weasley.
Voldemort killed by who else; Harry.
And about 50 students at Hogwarts names not specified.

And Ron or Hermione DO NOT die.
