Harry Potter 7.2 - SPOILER ALERT

[Dave (imported)]

I'm waiting for the BluRay (and DVD) of Half Blood Prince part 2 to be delivered tomorrow.

I read all the books but since I let my family read all my books when I'm done, I think I only have the last one on the shelf.

The Bridge you see get destroyed at the beginning of the Half Blood Prince was built in 1991 and destroyed in 1996

HOWEVER, the real bridge: The real-life Millennium Bridge had not begun construction in 1996 but in fact started in late 1998, with the main work starting on 28 April 1999.

The same sort of twisted history is seen in the LONDON EYE: The London Eye appears in the second part of the film adaptation of Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, in the year 1997 despite the fact that the wheel was only erected in 1999,

Rowling very slyly changes history and makes Voldemort's reign and the death of Harry's parents seem ancient, old history. IT isn't old history. It is very much modern and recent history. Remember that Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone was published in 1997 in the UK and "Sorcerer's Stone" was published in 1998 in the USA. So that's fixes the climax of the entire series as before the millennium (2000).

As everybody looks back over the seven volumes of the story, one thing is clear from JK Rowling --- She knew the final scenes of volume 7 as she was writing the first book. That was one of her admissions during the roughly ten years of writing. She says one of the last chapters of book seven was written while the first book was a draft. This is Harry walking out of the woods to face Voldemort and the supposedly dead Harry being carried by Hagrid into Hogwarts. Harry was born and by the prophecy Harry had to "die" facing Voldemort 17 years later.

So there were two fixed points in the entire story -- Harry's birth and that final battle at Hogwarts. Everything else hangs off them. All of the words in seven volumes derive from those two points. Rowling doesn't waste story on side plots or anything not related directly to Harry.

Look to how many stories (books or movies or TV series) you see or read that have that coherence of plot and focus of ideas. The best stories have that clarity.

I wonder if it is time for some Harry Potter Fan Fiction to return to the Fiction Archive?...

I think, yes.

Knife of Klingsor and Potion of Power will appear in the next update.

That should keep Harry Potter fans busy for a while.

OK here are the dates

Harry was born July 31, 1980.

The proof is in the books,

Chamber of Secrets, page 133, Sir Nicholas De Mimsy-Porpington died 31st October 1492 and was having his 500th deathday party. That would have been Oct. 31st 1992 and Harry would at that time be 12. back it off 12 years, born in 1980.

Further proof,

Order of the phoenix

Page 141 any you are 15 years old?

Yes said Harry.

The court date was Aug 12th.

So Hagrid who picked Harry up on his Birthday to tell him he was a wizzard did not drop him off at Kings Cross on Sept 1, Sorcerer's Stone page 87.

Page 90

Don't talk rubbish said Uncle Vernon there is no platform nine and three quarters. His uncle did.

Further proof that Harry was born in the summer.

Deathly Hallows

page 113 The trace on Harry is removed he is no 17,

Page 114 Happy Birthday Harry

Page 131 Talking to Hagrid after the party he was heading out as there was no place for him to sleep and Hagrid was invited to the Wedding the next day.

The wedding of Bill and Flur was Aug 1st.

Final proof

The proficy in Order of the Phoenix Page 841

The one with the power to vanquish the dark lord approaches born to those who have thrice defied them, born as the 7th month dies.

So there you have it everybody,

Harry is born July 31st, 1980.

Remember the movie did and did not do a lot of things that were and were not in the books don't confuse the two or the fifteen.

With the Harry Potter books you need to remember three things,

He was the boy who lived,

He was the chosen one,

He was, uh, oh, darn, uh, wait I know it, oh, OPPS.

I just finished editing all 54 chapters of Harry Potter and the Secret of the Golden Unicorn as well as the 4 parts of Harry Potter, Jr. & the Wizard Protective Society.

Including the two novel length entries I previously edited, we now have four very long Harry Potter entries on the Eunuch Archive. The next big update should satisfy most of the HP fans on the board.

Enjoy.
