NEVILLE!!!!!

Some guy had these great shirts on Cafepress with Neville in a Che Guevera beret that read "!Viva la DA! !Viva los Neville!" (my Spanish is probably wrong), but they took it down within hours.

some of you are defending the final book way too much...I've read and loved them all so much...but this was like a dissapointing sequel to a movie....it didn't deliver the goods...a lot of action, and a neo meets the architecht scene at Kings Cross...it still left things unresolved...the Dursleys? Anyone? Please tell me your not that cold hearted...and neither is JK, in fact...a perfect ending to me...would have been that the Dursley's were taken hostage by Voldemort and Harry has to save them. It was a pretty poorly crammed into everything book...and, shorter than it should have been...I'm not asking for a hundred page epilogue...but, atleast 20 more pages...c'mon. Stop defending the final book, and admit your in denial.

 

[Dew k. Mosi]

I would totally wear that shirt

 

[Poetic Chaos]

I wish I could understand the Neville fanbase.

It had some pacing issues, which I've always seen a Rowlings strong point, but really I'm personally very happy with how the plot spooled out.

You're ideal ending is just far too much, even in a series that has a ton of sentiment and redemptions and other little elements only there to indulge the reader. It would be ridiculous. Also, the point of an epilogue is just a little snapshot of the characters after the fact, a big 40 page long explanation of everything that happened afterward would have royally screwed up the pacing, and is contrary to the spirit of an epilogue.

I wish I could understand the Neville fanbase.

He's endearing, he has so much bad happen to him and he's still always eager to help people and be a good guy and ends up a hero. He's basically the reverse of Snape or Voldermort.

 

[Poetic Chaos]

Neville leading the DA though? A bunch of students following the lead of the Chosen One, sure. It works. Following the lead of Neville Longbottom and 2 6th year girls (one being notoriously unpopular)? Doesn't work for me.

"Neville's the man!"

Had to be the worst line of the series for me.

 

[BubbaGump]

I can't wait for Neville's spinoff sitcom.

Just as you cannot understand how Neville is awesome, no one else can understand how you do not think he's a badass.

And I don't think Luna was nearly as unpopular toward the end. And even if she was, Ginny was VERY popular.

And another thing being, this was a lot more serious than when Harry had the DA going on. Things at Hogwarts were a lot worse than Umbridge being mean. This was murder.

 

[Majik1387]

I'm happy it didn't do some things that were expected, because in all honesty, the Neville Bellatrix faceoff would be too cliche to me of 'You killed my parents, now I'll kill you!' and though I didn't like their deaths, Remus and Tonks deaths would have been great to read, but remember, we're reading from Harry's/sometimes Voldy's standpoint. He didn't know they died till he saw their bodies because he didn't witness the deaths, which is why they didn't get a death scene in the book. Maybe in the movie they'll get one, but it's fine in the book the way it is.

 

[Sandman138]

If you think Harry's death was simple deus ex machina you must've missed the point of the last ten chapters.

Not his death, his not dying.

 

[Carcharodon]

"Hello. My name is Neville Longbottom. Joo keelled my father...and mother. Prepare to die!"

 

[Sandman138]

Finished it last night and I have to say one thing.

NEVILLE!!!!!!!!

Seriously. Neville is the true chosen one. Potter is a little ***** by comparison.

 

[Dew k. Mosi]

NEVILLE!!!!

 

[Sam Fisher]

Nice

Speaking of Harry Potter....

Exactly! I like the fact that we didn't see everything and that not everything was wrapped up. It made it feel more real.

 

[Matt]

Neville is starting to annoy me.

I've said it before, and I'll say it again. I wouldn't liked to see Neville try to duel Bellatrix during the war at Hogwarts and Bellatrix simply using avada kedavra as he tries to go into a monologue about avenging his parents. It would've been perfectly anti-climactic.

Jumping on the NEVILLE!!! bandwagon:

*Facts About Neville*

Chuck Norris' boggart is Neville Longbottom.

Neville urinates Felix Felicis.

If Grindewald and Voldemort were to get in a fight, Neville would win.

Ozzy Osbourne bites the heads off of bats. Neville Longbottom bites the heads off of Hippogriffs.

Neville is one-eigth centaur. This has nothing to do with bloodline; he once ate an entire centaur.

Neville Longbottom sold his soul to the devil for his rugged good looks and unparalleled bad-ass wizarding ability. Shortly after the transaction was finalized, Neville Expelliarmus'd the devil's ass and took his soul back. The devil, who appreciates irony, couldn't stay mad and admitted he should have seen it coming. They now play Exploding Snap every second Wednesday of the month.

The Sorting Hat is no longer used at Hogwarts; students are sorted based on how long it takes them to cry in the presence of Neville Longbottom.

When Harry and Ginny's children were conceived, Ginny was thinking of Neville. So was Harry.

Voldemort didn't light the Sorting Hat on fire; the Sorting Hat combusted because it touched Neville Longbottom.

 

[Darkly Dexter]

I don't think he was tragic. I feel no pity for Snape. His own actions led him to lose Lily.

yes, so...?

there is something called redemption. And another one called remorse.
