questionaires!

Oh!  oh!  Me too!  Can I do this too?  :D

1.  What new magical place will we visit?

I want to see Godric's Hollow or MoM.
 
2.  Are any of the Dursleys wizards?  Who?

Heh.  Uncle Vernon.

3.  Identify the next DADA teacher.

Neville's Gran or Molly Weasley (my favorite).  Any mother with that 
many children has quite a few tricks up her sleeve.

4.  Which "beloved" character(s) will die?  Any other deaths,
    and   if so, who?
  
  Yeesh.  Tough one.  I think Hagrid will die, but I also think that 
because this is a war, many more will, too.  Definitely Dumbledore, 
too, but much later in the story.  


5.  Of Lupin, Sirius, Krum, Fleur, Lockhart, Winky, Dobby, Moody,
 Bagman, Madam Maxime, which characters will have speaking lines in 
OoP.

I don't think we will see much of Krum or Fleur.  At least I hope 
not.  I think we will see the most of Lupin Sirius and Moody.

6.  At the end of OoP, will Dumbledore be the headmaster?
 
 Yes.  I certainly hope so.

7.  At the end of OoP, will Fudge be the Minister of Magic? 

This is one I am not sure about.  I don't think Fudge is 
very "bright."  I just can't see him staying in that position.  But 
then, he could always surprise us and show some spine later on.  I 
don't know.

 8.  At the end of OoP, will Neville be the same forgetful boy, or
 will he have changed in some way?
 
I agree with everyone else on this one.  He's going to change, I 
just don't know how yet. I'd like to think he gets a chance to kick 
some a** and realize how strong he is, therefore changing his 
perception of himself forever.
 
9.  At the end of OoP, will Sirius have cleared his name?

I'll use what Richelle said on this one: "No.  I don't think he'll 
have his name cleared until the very end."  Ditto.
 
10.  Will Harry and Voldemort have a confrontation?

No, I don't think so. There have to be other powerful wizards 
besides Harry that will be at the "right place at the right time" so-
to-speak.  Does that make sense?  It can't ALWAYS be Harry, alone, 
facing the dark forces of evil, can it?  I would like to see what 
some of the other characters can do.  Although they might get killed 
in the process, come to think of it.....
 
11.  Of the following magical things, which will a character use
or confront:  pensieve, veritaserum, boggart, Marauder's Map,
whomping willow, polyjuice potion, nifflers, portkeys, rememberall, 
floo
powder, time turner, sneakoscope, foe glass, secrecy sensor,
knight bus.
 
All of them, I hope!
 
12.  Will there be Quiddich at Hogwarts?

OH yeah.


 If so, who will be the Gryffindor Keeper?

Ron. :D  Come on, the guy needs a chance to show what he's got.

Gryffindor Captain?

Harry, just because he's Harry *sigh*


13.  Will anyone else turn out to be an animagus?  Who?

I'm stabbing in the dark here, but Arthur Weasley.  ;-)
 
14.  Who is Mundungus Fletcher?

He's going to be like Obi Wan.  Remember in "Star Wars"  when Uncle 
Owen told Luke, "That one's just a crazy old man."  That's 
Mundungus.  He looks and acts crazy, but I bet he's a lean, mean 
fighting machine when it comes right down to it. Hehe!

15.  Will Wormtail use his silver hand in an important way?

Probably.  I find Peter Pettigrew REALLY annoying.  All the 
grovelling, snivelling and backstabbing don't endear me to him.  I 
just hope he pays off his debt to Harry in a good way.


I agree with Richelle!!  Someone make up a new survey!  I'm sorry I 
missed it the first time!  

Alora :)
