Two of my favorite subjects rolled into one post!  

It was I who theorized that Fred & George's departure could lead to 
Harry not spending all seven years at Hogwarts.  Don't get me wrong, 
I love Hogwarts, but I really felt like there was a lot of waiting in 
this book for a big climactic finale that seemed certain not to take 
place at the school.  It also felt like there were things happening 
outside of the school that Harry wanted to be a part of (and as a 
reader I wanted to know about.)  I don't think that Harry is just 
going to decide not to go back to school in Book 7, but it is 
conceivable that something could happen which forces his final months 
of education to be more on the job, practical training, maybe?  

On my favorite subject, The Prequel, my new and brilliant idea (we're 
not talking about a whole lot of brilliance on a Monday morning) 
which I'm sure has a snowball's chance in hell of occurring: if JKR 
does not want to write another book on our favorite subject of the 
WW, what if she wrote or oversaw a screenplay?  I know, no movie 
stuff here, but this is a non-existent (and will likely never exist) 
fantasy movie about the back story of the Marauders.  Come on, a 
really terrifying opening seen of a small boy being bit by a werewolf 
and then flash forward a few years to the fantastic four at Hogwarts
(alright, fantastic three & substandard fourth!!) This is good stuff 
people, tell me you wouldn't pay money to at least see it if you 
couldn't read it.
