    Dumbledore could "see" what the boys were up to because he was on the Chocolate Frog cards. Just like the portraits of headmasters could move to any other portraits of themselves, Dumbledore could visit any of his Chocolate Frog cards. When he was stripped of all his titles, he even said it's ok as long as they don't take him off the cards. When Harry got his Dumbledore card, Ron explained that you can't expect him to hang around all day!

    Another theory: Mr and Mrs Evans loved and preferred James Potter (who they found amusing and charming) a lot more than they did Vernon Dursley, and this only exacerbated Petunia's resentment and jealousy of her sister Lily even more. What are your thoughts on that?
  • on the limbo at kingscross, I thought everyone knew it was voldemort, its the exact same thing that was dropped in the cauldron in the graveyard, in goblet of fire
  • @canteventhough
    I don't believe the remaining twin is Willy Wonka, but I LOVE that theory and it makes me feel warm and fuzzy.
  • I love the Snape code theory so much, if you look closely in the film, before Snape starts his code, he pretty much makes fun of harry because knows nothing of the Wizarding world. What's funny is that Snape thought he wasn't paying attention, so ij the film when Snape walks up to Harry, he looks down and sees the notes, evident that Harry WAS infact paying attention, that's when Snape starts the code, and it makes sense, after calling him out, and realizing that he actually wanted to be a charised and hard working wizard to learn his culture, he then says the code, which is essentially I'm sorry, for you and your mother, then he says, let us begin

    I want to point out that trelawney did say some prejudiced things about Firenze, but so did he and the centaurs were incredibly prejudiced towards humans and seers. I think that it was mostly a difference in opinion, because centaurs used the cosmos to predict the future and seers seemed to have more of a psychic inclination, and that difference in opinion caused them to be against eachother since they had to share divination and each thought the others methods were bunk.

    Also fun fact. On numbani, if you look in the reflections of the buildings, you can see the reflection maps of the PvE map. It's mostly just added boxes and force fields to zone areas. But it also has the addition where the map continues to the side of the airport
  • On Lily and Petunia's parents' death, the "normal Muggle death" could've been seemingly normal but also involved foul play- perhaps the Death Eaters caused a fatal car accident? That could even be where the lie the Dursleys told Harry about his parents came from
  • @nanabutner
    When Hedwig and Dobby both died——“I CRIED FOR DAYS”! The useless death of helpless innocents always is so hard to accept!
  • No way Hermione wiped her parents memory earlier because she’d have to use magic outside hogwart before legal age so the ministry would’ve known
  • @nishatsompura
    What about this theory? In the book Tale of Three Brothers, the veil represents Death and the bridge (referenced in the book) refers to the pathway between Life and Death. The three brothers create the hallows to safely use beyond the veil - the invisibility cloak will let the user to safely pass through the veil and navigate whatever is beyond the veil, the elder wand is the only wand powerful enough to use on the other side of the veil, and the resurrection stone is the only way to safely recall the person who entered the veil, to be brought back to our world. The three brothers were very powerful Wizards who found a way to safely go beyond the veil and also use the Deathly Hallows in our world as well.

    About Harry making just the Dursleys mad by being a horcrux. Could it not be that it built up in them over time from the best part of 10 years of constant exposure. The breaks between school terms could mean that the effects of the horcrux are lessened within his magic friends. Moreover, the times during school in which the Durlseys aren't exposed could also lessen the effects, but takes much longer due to the amount of exposure. This could explain why Dudley shows remorse towards Harry when they leave him (in Order? in a deleted scene?)
  • @hollywalker3726
    Anyone notice that Uncle Vernon hoped that Harry would get the death penalty in Order of the Phoenix. There's an argument that the Dementor's Kiss is a form of death penalty in the wizarding world. So the fact that Harry saved Dudley from a dementor attack, Uncle Vernon was hoping his son would get the wizarding death penalty too. Both penalties are equal in my view, you lose your soul with the Kiss, so you might as well be dead.

    I have a theory: Draco actually knew he was the owner of the Elder Wand after he disarmed Dumbledore. The reason he didn’t take it or was open about it, was because he knew that Voldemort would’ve killed him and his family for it. Draco grew up in a magical family that dated back for centuries, and his house was full of magical relics and history, surely he would’ve known about the Deathly Hallows and how the Elder Wand worked.
  • can you maybe make an audio book of all harry pottter books . your voice would be perfect bro
  • @Amizare1
    I've always theorized that the Australian school is on top of Ayers Rock.
  • I think the theory that snape is Harry’s father might be the worst one yet, like how would you read the books and that’s your conclusion
  • @LyleFrancisDelp
    Rowling has addressed the Dursley behavior being due to the "horcrux" in Harry. She said simply that the Dursleys were just mean and there was no relationship between the two.
