Where would they get a gun?

Why did you make this thread again?
Why are you so low kinoma IQ and pleb?

According to J.K. Rowling herself the Wizards were too stupid to think of that.

Every wizard learns a spell that auto-protects them from fast moving non-magic projectiles at a young age.

...

Then why not imbue the bullets with +5 fire magic damage

Voldemort can't just get killed

How are brits supposed to get guns

sauce?

Because the author didn't think about it, she's a woman, you can't expect good logic.

Why didn't they use pen and paper for notes

well uh because then it wouldn't be one of the dullest franchise in the history of movie franchises. Each episode following the boy wizard and his pals from Hogwarts Academy as they fight assorted villains has been indistinguishable from the others. Aside from the gloomy imagery, the series’ only consistency has been its lack of excitement and ineffective use of special effects, all to make magic unmagical, to make action seem inert.

Perhaps the die was cast when Rowling vetoed the idea of Spielberg directing the series; she made sure the series would never be mistaken for a work of art that meant anything to anybody?just ridiculously profitable cross-promotion for her books. The Harry Potter series might be anti-Christian (or not), but it’s certainly the anti-James Bond series in its refusal of wonder, beauty and excitement. No one wants to face that fact. Now, thankfully, they no longer have to.

>a-at least the books were good though
"No!"
The writing is dreadful; the book was terrible. As I read, I noticed that every time a character went for a walk, the author wrote instead that the character "stretched his legs."

I began marking on the back of an envelope every time that phrase was repeated. I stopped only after I had marked the envelope several dozen times. I was incredulous. Rowling's mind is so governed by cliches and dead metaphors that she has no other style of writing. Later I read a lavish, loving review of Harry Potter by the same Stephen King. He wrote something to the effect of, "If these kids are reading Harry Potter at 11 or 12, then when they get older they will go on to read Stephen King." And he was quite right. He was not being ironic. When you read "Harry Potter" you are, in fact, trained to read Stephen King.

>syltherin are bunch of niggers, minus 1000 points
what did he mean by this bold action?

They were in Britain.

Serious answer though, basic shield spells should be able to block bullets. A sloppy wizard or one who is bad at dueling might get taken out by a gun, but not Voldemort.

Slytherin only had one nigger and he was probably a mulatto

>Catch 22
>Not swapping positions with atlas memed

They tried that in the book but he has a charm on that makes him bullet proof.

So he wasn't really "pure-blooded", how did he get into Slytherin.

>worried about its Medusa-gaze? Wear night vision goggles
Everything previously established in Harry Potter suggests that this would just lead to paralysis instead of death.

>a revolving double barreled shotgun

Why not put some suppressors while they're at it?

>why didn't this childrens book live up to my manchild fedora sensibility

Fuck off /k/.

Because Voldemort can easily stop the bullets? He's a master at dark arts so a simple shield spell could stop them. Also because guns aren't allowed as the HP series is kid friendly.

Doesn't matter, they still act like a bunch of street niggers.

>ooga booga i want much money and powah don't care 'bout anyone else

Speaking of Harry Potter, this is the worst plot i've ever read in my life
thedailybeast.com/articles/2016/06/10/harry-potter-and-the-cursed-child-spoilers-here-s-the-plot-of-the-play.html

How about instead of guns? IEDs!

and a strategic nuke

guns are illegal in Britain

I bet he chimped out in the french streets during the last Quidditch European Cup.

Time Turners were a mistake.

>Bane the centaur

>posting this image
>expecting to be taken seriously

Atlas Shrugged and Great Gatsby is what idiots pretend to like/have read to pretend that they're cultured.

Harry Potter mpreg fanfic is more interesting than this play.

Actually, Atlas Shrugged is what uncultured swine pretend to hate to feel accepted, because they can't admit they enjoy the prose without feeling like they have to adopt the ideas it promotes.

Remember kids: it is the mark of an educated mind to be able to entertain an idea without adopting it.

>MUH LIBERTARIANISM
>SO DEEP

then you turned 20

would magic stop a bullet?

nice high school reading list

from a 2010 interview:
"ye wizzars be all cool n shit but they dumb yknow"

If a spell could be cast in time before getting hit by the bullet, I'm sure a few could.

...

Because then Voldemort would realize that guns exist and proceed to get some himself.

Voldemort can't be killed, they're called horcruxes and he had 7 of them. After neville destroyed nagini that could have been a viable option, but nobody had a gun handy during the battle of hogwarts. Also a standard shield charm could deflect a bullet, assuming we're talking about snipers, and if this is a close range handgun dealie, then an expelliarmus would disarm you quicksmart. On the other hand, the killing curse can't be shielded.

>needing a gun
>when you're a fucking wizard

are american wizards really shit or something?

You have to understand that the reason most of the retards here hate Rand is because of demographics. Look at Sup Forums in general, almost everyone here come from a bourgeoisie upbringing and quite frankly are, or either are close to being NEETS; utter losers who have very limited life experience and responsibilities. They are so absorbed with politically extreme leftist ideals that one cannot have a rational discussion with them (I harbor various left wing leanings myself, but there is a difference between talking to a moderate and an extremist).

The young men I know who like Ayn Rand are admittedly arrogant and self-absorbed, but they are determined, intelligent and motivated individuals (Businessmen and Doctors). I do not mind Rand myself nor do I love her, I will not discuss too much of myself but I'll just say that I am rather far off being a NEET. Think the liberal feminist meme you see going around. Yeah, those are the people that disagree with Rand (The majority of people who hate her have never read her books, they just accept and repeat the culture of memes).

why not rape him instead?

a fucking videogame did it better than it go fuck your own anuses.
thank you.

ALSO it needs to be noted that voldemort was arguably the world's most skilled practitioner of legilimency, which means he can anticipate your actions seconds before you do them. Your best bet for killing voldemort is to take him by surprise when he's especially mentally vulnerable, like after he's realised his last horcrux has just been destroyed.
The real question is why voldemort, who's shit scared of dying, didn't go on the defence when he saw nagini die and harry come back to life. He should have fucked fled hogwarts by apparation, found some more significant childhood memorabilia and made some new horcruxes, but instead he stays there acting like a spastic and trying to stupefy and avada kedavra harry over and over again.

why didnt hermione just fuck everyone to get things she wanted

>videogame
This board is for adults no matter what people like OP and his thread make you think

...

magic can stop bullets

spells can be visibly seen traveling through the air.
a bullet moves faster than human sight.

Gatsby is a severely overrated book, like criminally overrated

Also TKAM is definitely FAR better than fucking pleb-tier children's fiction you cunt

Oh wait, Clifford the big red dog is in middle tier. I see, it's a clever troll. Hahaha ebin xd

Just imagine been in class full of American wizards and witches.

a thought moves faster than a bullet

how can our thoughts be real when our eyes are mirrors?

There's probably a "bulleticus fuckofficus" spell big V could cast in half a second to secure his plot armor.

When did tumblr start coming here? Was it because of that Hannibal trash??

You libertarian pigs think you know culture. Ha.

Even aside from turning selfishness into a virtue despite how obviously stupid that is, Rand could not write prose to save her own life. There is no flow, and the book is simply too long. There's a speech in it that could have said the same thing more powerfully in an eighth of its length. That's not writing, that's shit sticking to paper.

why didn't ron and harry kiss, lick, suck, and worship hermoine's sexy feet?

>then you turned 20
When will you turn 18?

Its never been really stated what are the limits of the shield charm, and what they can do. Can they protect against manmade objects, natural objects, just spells, or everything. The only thing you can reason is that Rowling said in a war between humans and wizards, that the wizards would inevitably lose partly because of the population difference (I think its an absurd 1,000,000:1), and because of the technological advantage being superior to magic.

Also, there's still no way Voldemort could do anything against a sniper round traveling at him faster than his nerve endings can react.

Yes, yes, well done Hufflepuffy, well done.

>HOWEVER

In a gun shop, m8

>Also because guns aren't allowed as the HP series is kid friendly.
so that's the excuse for poor writing

The only thing the book establishes is that looking at the basilisk's reflection causes paralysis. There's nothing about pictures.

Voldemort being killed by a muggle weapon would actually have been a better ending for his character

The potter films are straight kino save goblet learn to film analysis

Excellent taste.

how about the fact that a woman is one of the richest people on the planet while you're hugging your anime pillow and eating hot pockets.

Goblet of Fire is the best one after Chamber of Secrets. The rest are mediocre to shit

DH part 2 is genuinely great save for the epilogue

They should have just called Obama to get the Navy Seal team who took down Osama bin Laden to take down Voldemort

Holy fuck kys goblet is the absolute worst lmao

guns are more powerful than magic, rowling said so

Dh1 is pure kino

Hahahahahahahahaha

3>7>6>2>5>8> 1> 4

Consider killing yourself faggot

>watch Buffy
>literally only a SINGLE vampire/demon/creature so far is smart enough to use a gun

viets are more powerful than americans, reality said so

Are you retarded. Wizards can teleport and turn someone into a weasel without getting shot

Atlas Shrugged is enjoyable especially when you realize it has stark parallels to what is happening today.

Socialism, cultural marxism. Crashing the western world with no survivors.

You don't have to accept her whole fucking monologue of doom to see there is a lot of food for thought in there.

She needed a really good editor though.

You're a big horse

and that scene was cringy as fuck, which is why they stopped.

> it is the mark of an educated mind

more like the mark of not being an idiot
i could do that when i was in grade school
