First Post, so lets hope i do this right
Having been intrigued by JKR's comments that Alfonso Cuaron's
intuitive reading of POA had foreshadowed the narrative in books 6
and 7, I watched with great interest and a reasonable knowledge of
canon through to OOPT ( well who has more ?) to try and second guess
what that foreshadowing might be.
Loved the movie ! The pace was great, loved the reworking of the
story line to deliver a lean and very exciting story with all of the
central threads to the story maintained. Adored the patronus !!
But my take out on the foreshadowed story line relates to the early
scene with the Aunt Marge - and Harry's uncontrollable righteous
anger.
It seems to me that this scene sees him breaking glasses, lights
flickering on and off, blowing up his aunt from an apparent discharge
of magic , Are the swings and play equipment swinging wildly around
without reason or an aftermath of a large magical discharge from
Harry ? is it wandless magic ? is it a magical response to
injustice ? well really who knows but JKR, but
When Harry has righteous anger - he can do amazing things
He may not be able to cast an unforgiveable with his righteous anger
as per Bellatrix Lestrange's observation in OOPT , but in this movie
and in canon he can cast a patronus that drives away 50 + dementors
and he can blow up a frightful aunt. ( Once he made a window
disappear at London Zoo)
Probably drawing a long bow - but is the power that LV knows not -
something to do with that strength you draw upon to protect others or
yourself from injustice and disaster ?? is it something to do with
his righteous anger ?
Just some thoughts , but keen to test them
