We all know what will happen in book 7: Harry gets a relation with the Hermoin and their pal Ron dies.

I still haven't read the books or seen a movie, but the trailer of the 3rd movie was really cool!

Well, that's just one of the few possiblities..but I do agree that someone will die, just like in the 5th book. Obviously, there is going to be a final showdown between Harry and Voldermort, so..it will definitely have to end, because that is the main part of the story. So seven books is what it should stay at.

I don't think Harry and Hermione marry, I think Ron and Hermione marry because they're always arguing and stuff and when they get older that should transform into wild attraction.

Oh, Ron and Hermione are both into each other. And they both kind of know it. But Ron's worried because of the whole Krum situation (Hermione visited him over the summer before book 5). And Hermione knows where she sits with Harry. She's wants to be his friend, but with Ron, she's weird. In several books they're really awkward about hugging each other.

At any rate, I would definately appreciate more books afterwards. Harry and the gang know so little about magic compared to Voldey and his followers, so unless he starts picking up the pace I'm going to want more books to see how powerful he really gets.

How can you say that? We haven't even been shown a whole dementor. Just a hand and the sleeve of a robe opening a window in one of the trailors.

I mean, I've heard some people who've seen it (early editor cuts) think there is some resemblance, but they said that it was obvious they tried to stay away from the Ring Wraith design as much as possible.

As much as I am obsessed with Harry Potter, I to hope that the books end with his graduation, or possibly one other... maybe a history or companion sorta like the other Tolkein books.

I hope she continunes writing, just, not these.

oh yeah, Fictionalley.org is a Harry Potter site which has a TON of fanfics, many of which are REAllY good!

i think that it would be neat to have more books because i Love Harry Potter, but the point that many people have made about it taking away from the legend of the books makes a lot of sense... so I guess i just would like for her to keep writing, maybe not necessarily adding on to the HP adventures, but could follow something else

the thing with what happens in the 7th book: no, Harry and Hermione don't get together, it hasn't been set up that way..it is obvious that it is Ron and Hermione that hook up, I have a feeling that Harry might end up with a muggle but that has no fact behind it (just would be an interesting twist)

don't know about the dementors, i think they would try to keep it original

And the final showdown between Harry and voldemort definately depends on whether or not Rowling plans on keeping the HP books going...because if she does Voldemort will have to be a part of them or they just wouldn;t be as exciting
