> QUESTIONS
> 1.  I still don't get this "like a lover" stuff between Bellatrix & 
> Voldemort.  What *was* their relationship, in your opinion?  What 
> about Rodolphus, her husband? Was theirs a marriage of convenience? 
> Did he not care, or did he know that if he did show he cared, 
> Voldemort would kill him?  

Kemper now:
I think Bellatrix is a beard.
Rodolphus and Walden forever!
Let the ship wars begin!!!


> 9.  Why/How was Neville able to break free of the Body-Bind Curse?  
> He certainly couldn't break free of Hermione's in first year!

Kemper now:
Voldemort's spell casting is a bit impotent after Harry's sacrifice.

 
> 11. There has been quite a varied response to Molly Weasley in this 
> scene.  What is yours?

Kemper now:
Hmm... It seemed a bit movie-ish and I've been a bit eye-rolly with
it... but now that I have a child (I did not at the time of the first
reading), I hope my child outlives me and can understand her rage/fear
at the possibility of losing second child (and on the same day!).  If
it were real life, I can see her dropping the sixth and, the forbidden
and most tabooed, third letter words.  

 
> 19. Many were disappointed by the part Slytherin played at the end, 
> having hoped for so much more from students, children of DEs, etc.  
> Thinking of the roles of the Slytherins who *did* play a part – 
> Horace and Narcissa in particular – are those parts worth 
> celebrating?  How significant to the outcome were they?

Kemper now:
NO!!!  I pray the movie takes liberties with the Battle, showing
Slytherin students fighting their parents (hard to show, I realize),
getting killed by giants and Fenrir.  

Thanks SSS for the sum and qs!!!
