Now me:
I'm right there with you Melody.  For the entire last 20 min of 
Matrix Revolutions I'm sitting there thinking, "That's what's going 
to happen to Harry."  "That's what's going to happen to Harry." Over 
and over again. 

I can't really seeing it ending any other way.  But, of course, that 
is how JKR wants us to see it right now and she has a genius for 
manipulation.  I can tell you in every book she's guided me exactly 
where she wants me to go, has me thinking Harry's thoughts a split 
second before he speaks them and when I put that realization along 
with her hint's in interviews about him possibly not surviving, and 
the definite end of the saga at book 7, she most definitely wants us 
to believe, that at least for now, he is going to die.  

Personally though, although I'd be very sad, I'd applaud her guts for 
carrying it off though. She'd have many angery fans out there. Just 
look at the ruckus killing Sirius made.
