Having seen a couple other HPFGU members mention their "dear
husband's" theories, I had to pass along my own's recent
pronouncement, spurred by the media hype of a Book 6 death. It is
apparently, based on the war movie model (a la John Wayne WWII), a
genre I'm not much into myself, but I thought it might be an
interesting addition to the discussions,(if only to chuckle).
Anyway, it goes as follows:
The next major death will be McGonagall.
The characters and their model counterparts:
Dumbledore=battle-tested general/colonel, loved by his troops, but
somewhat remote
McGonagall= strict sergeant that distills order in his/her troops,
keeps them together as a unit
Snape= whinging lieutenant that may or may not be passing secrets to
the Nazis/enemy.
So the theory goes, McGonagall dies at the end of 6, leaving the
world looking bleak and disorganized. Kids (troops) must begin take
control of their own destiny until mid Book 7 when Dumbledore dies
(from a plot of Malfoy and Voldemort) and Snape and Harry must in
the end must work together to defeat VOldemort. Various sidekicks
may also buy it along the way.
Snape ascends to take over leadership of Hogwarts.
So whad do you think? Too much wine and too many bad movies? I
personally think Snape could only be redeemed through death /self-
sacrifice, but maybe that's a little harsh....

Griffin782002 now:
I have little idea about old war movies, but I can't imagine M.G. dying in the sixth book. I am really worried about Ron. After the O.W.L. exam in Divination that joke "die Ron die" seemed to me not very innocent. And I also worry about his family, he nearly lost his father in OotP. It sounds cruel but she already done that (assuming that Sirius has gone for good).
Griffin782002 who is not so sure if we should use other movies or books to make predictions about H.P. (I thought D.D. would die in OotP) :-\
