However... from the latest trailer... amongst other changes, it would
appear that Harry and Voldemort have their final battle outside
Hogwarts and not in the Great Hall! Not sure how that'll fit with
Bella being slaughtered by Molly etc... but I'm sure we'll find out in
a year or so :(

I'm sure she can still strike her down from outside. Or maybe instead
she'll summon a really big rock over Bellatrix. Probably start
quoting Ripley, "Get away from her, you Bitch!"

Maybe... but the trailer seemed to show *only* Harry and Voldemort
fighting. There was nobody else in the scene at all.

And what was with the 'face to face' thing about why Harry lives... ??
That's nothing to do with the book as we know it?

There were a couple of other 'odd' things about the trailer... but no
doubt we'll see another release before November. Either way, I think
it's already clear this will *not* be DH as we know it from the books.

Perhaps they talk before he kills Harry in the forest. Perhaps this
Voldemort gets AKing Harry is a bad idea. Learn why he lived, counter
it, kill him. Sure beats Harry showing up, and Voldemort just killing
him.

Seriously. He tries to kill Baby Harry, and he loses his body while
Harry lives. He tries in the forest, and is knocked unconscious.
Harry appears to return from the dead. Why would anybody try the same
failed spell a third time? Especially when one tends to suffer from
it as well? Hopefully a smarter movie Voldemort shall appear.


Better question...Why would anyone try it a FOURTH time?
Don't forget the graveyard. He tried AKing Harry and the
wands connected, Harry escaped, and LV was humiliated
in front of his DEs.

"Yeah, Lyle Francis Delp! Ya wanna make sumthin outtavit?"

I just finished playing some Texas Holdem Poker.... LV didn't have a choice... he raised 3X and didn't get the right cards but he invested too much to fold...

He thought he killed Harry in the forest. He attacked hogwarts; join me or die, this is it.... He was wrong; Harry wasn't dead... [besides repenting] he had 2 choices:

1. Back down
2. Give it one more shot. All in.

Sorry but choice #1 makes less sense than #2. If he would have backed down his followers would have left him and maybe tried to kill him. [I also watched "Analyze This" last night and I'm reminded that a "boss" who looks weak and backs down is dead from all sides.]
