we know that the hbp is not harry or voldemort so there will probably be a new character. And I hear snape has a girlfriend. Rowling is pregnant again with her 3rd child so who knows how that will slow down her progress.

Many think the HBP could be Hagrid...that he discovers he is some kind of prince of the giants and uses that to get the giants to fight for Dumbledore...that's an interesting idea.

I doubt it's firenze, he doesn't seem like a likely proeminent character...but yeah, the new DADA teacher...who, again, is a mystery. :p

arghh the same debates had been going on before the release of the 5th book -who's gonna die? Most said Hagrid and Ron, or mr Weasley, none thought of Sirius lol. Probably JK Rowling is going to surprise us again...

rowling has said that it will have alot to do with the 2nd book so maybe it could be hagrid. maybe it is tom riddle as he is kind of separate from voldemort. I also heard that it is over 1200 pages

The Tom Riddle idea seems a bit weird to me, yeah he's quite different from Voldemort but thechnically he IS Voldemort, just his younger self and Rowling specifically said it won't be Voldemort or Harry...so unless they turn back time/bring the young Voldie into the present I don't see it work...

1200 pages wow they keep getting bigger and bigger.

I also heard that the last word of the 7th book will be "scar". Hmmm...

scar I wonder what they will be about. Any word on how long the movie goblet of fire wil be, it is after all twice the length of azkaban. I heard 4 1/2 hours with a 10 minute intermission??? I would sit if it was 8 hours. I heard it comes out in 2005 as well. Has rowling said she will let the movies catch up to the books, thus goblet of fire is in the movies then hbp comes out to book and then order of the phoenix and hbp will be in the movies before book 7 comes out, probably in 2008-2010 at this rate. what do you know

I have to admit, I'm not too sure about the dates...but yeah, I also heard the goblet of fire is going to be like 4 hours long...personally I haven't gotten to see the third movie yet *grrr* but I saw pictures of it also as the actors are getting older it will be harder and harder to see them as the cute kids from the Philosopher's Stone, but I do hope they won't change them, many fans will be dissapointed.

But maybe do something about Draco's hair! 😵

as the mirror shows ron as quidditch captain, which could happen as he is now on the team and him as head boy which also could happen as he is a prefect could the mirror relly tell tell the future and harrys parents could come back to life. or maybe harry dies and joins them. maybe he will find the mirror again and see him with his parents and sirius

Well one thing Rowling herself said was that Hermione will become Head Girl.

Also about Snape, I think he was in love with Lily while in Hogwarts, thus the obvious enmity between him and James...wonder who can be his new girlfried...Trelawney? 😵

Also I'm not trully convinced Sirius is dead. I may be wrong about this, but that archway can also be a gateway to another dimension or something....

I think Snape dies in book 6 trying to save Harry, shoving him aside or stepping in front of some magic or something. Either that or in year 7 Snape finally gets doda and maybe he names Malfoy as his student prodigy. I also expect for OliverWood to possibly replace Madam Hooch as quidditch ref or deffinetly a position at Hogwarts.

I dont think this will happen as dumbledore will need Snape as Potions master. I like it better with a new Defense teacher every year

Yeah definatley, that's like one of the trademarks of the books...a different DADA teacher every year for different reasons. It IS supposed to be jinxed, after all. 😵
