Dave:
I really wanted the movie to have a scene after his sacrifice showing 
the DE's trying to attack people and it's all just rebounding on them 
-- Something analogous to _Yellow Submarine_ , when the Fab Four's 
music is just rendering all the Blue Meanies totally impotent. 
:)  Obviously the Potterverse wouldn't be that blatant, but still, 
something of that same idea that, ultimately, "Love is all you 
need".  (Harry's love, specifically.)
And then of course Harry's explanation: "I've done what my mother did 
-- Haven't you noticed ... you can't touch them, you can't torture them!"

Maybe the Prophecy *was* about Neville after all!!  :)

MGM!Wizard of Oz anyone?
