Who's in charge of the school rules at Hogwarts?
What would've happened to Harry if he simply refused to participate in the Triwizard Tournament?
Would he have been cursed? Expelled?
Why does whoever gets their name tossed into the Goblet of Fire absolutely HAVE to take part in the tournament?
What if someone just threw Dumbledore's name into the fire?

So it's a goblet... do you drink the fire?
Like firewater?
Like Native American racism?
That lady author was trying to tell us Indians can't hold their liquor.
Snape would have fucked him, man.
Snape would have taken him in every hole. He would have fucked him six ways 'til Sunday. Harry would have been on all fours, begging him to stop at first, and then begging him for more. Snape would fill him with thick, warm potion and then fuck the potion out of him. Harry would be a drooling, babbling wreck by the time he was done.
Who's bright idea is it to put a 14 year old in an area with a firebreathing dragon?
DIDJA PUTCHA NAME IN DA GAWBLET ARRY
How does hogwarts prepare you in anyway for the real world when the wizarding world is implied to be getting smaller and smaller
What will Harry do for a job when urban expansionism forces the magical community out
the baddies, obviously. Did you see the film or read the book?
The implication was that the goblet would cause something magical and terrible to happen to him if he didn't compete.
Rowling admitted she shit the bed with Goblet of Fire
Explain further.
What the fuck did you expect you fucking child laughed out of /lit/? Harry Potter was easily 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.
after learning at Hogwarts you are stuck working for the wizarding community no matter what, there's no other possible future for you.
Imagine some muggleborn deciding after finishing school fuck this magic shit, and tries to go back to the muggle world and live. Good luck getting a job when the last 7 years you didn't learn any maths or sciences.
this is a pasta, right?
my sentiments exactly
Wasn't that the point of the event? Take the golden egg from a dragon?
...
what up tumblr
do you have anymore false flags to post on twitter?
There was a Harry Potter TV thing a few years ago in the UK, and she basically said GoF was a nightmare that she was on the verge of scrapping, but her publicists threatened her with a fucking uprising if the book wasn't out on time
To be fair, they only meant to put 17 year olds in an arena with a firebreathing dragon. That's why they had the age line around the Goblet.
I believe that voldemorts plan makes no sense as it stands. About forty things need to happen that are completely out of his control it would make a lot more sense if their plan was simply to force Harry into the tournament hoping that he gets killed or badly injured, but the plan hinges on Harry surviving the first two challenges and winning the third.
Yea, but the baddies put him into the event. He didn't enter himself.
Yep
Pasta of truth
pasta of complete shit
I don't think the idea that the books are rubbish should be so controversial.
this
the fact that the only thing people ever cry about is the image is proof that its 100% correct
Minus 1312313123244 points for Slytherin
The same geniuses that thing that a sport where enchanted balls of lead home in on children's skulls.
you're a dumbfuck its from a review of possibly the worst film which the reviewer still gave a 7/10
It would make sense if Voldemort was also secretly rigging the tournament.
I'll type that out again, non-retarded:
The same geniuses that think that a sport where enchanted balls of lead home in on children's is a safe and fun activity for children to play.
Seriously, even though they have healing magic they have no magic to bring back the dead, so if a lead ball moving at 60mph shatters a kid's skull, killing them instantly, how the fuck do the teachers explain that to the parents?
>mph
>all this butthurt over quidditch
pussy
No it wouldn't. The whole point of the tournament is to get Harry to win so he touches the cup, taking him to Moldywart. BUT IT'S SO FUCKING STUPID. There are a million ways of getting Harry to him and that's the one they choose. Even if they did rig it it will still be dangerous, where many things can go wrong. They sneaked in a man who has taken the form of a renowned bad wizard hunter and is hiding him in a tiny box. How about, instead of the stupid idea of going through all that hassle just so he can give Harry advice for the tournament he kidnaps Harry. The plot makes so little sense it's Star Wars prequel tier.
Jesus fuck this is pretentious pasta
>Hey dude, just turn off your brain
>If you do it will hide my terrible writing ability
>replying to a low IQ memer
mate
because they wanted nobody to know what was happening, so they sent a death eater to set it all up, having one man on the inside is all you really need to stealth operations. voldemort wanted to make a big event out of killing harry in the tournament
>He doesn't know what pretentious means
DUDE FANTASY ISNT REAL WTF I HATE FANTASY NOW
How do I not? The last two lines are. They are elitist as fuck
It's pretentious, not him. Quit you're incandescent faggotry
Pretty much this. After getting in as Moody he could have had Harry touch a portkey at pretty much any time he wanted over the school year. He could have abducted Harry and brought back Voldemort within week 1.
As for OP's question, I'm going to have to google it. Fuck.
Does it make you insecure?
>kids getting petrified
>kids getting killed
>kids being taught arson and curses
>has a forest full of man eating spiders
>has a giant fucking snake
>has a giant dog
>has a tree that will fucking kill you
>literally trained lord voldemort in killing people and making them horcruxes
>this school somehow has funding
I don't fucking understand how the wizard world can function on this shit. Like where do they get the money to support this fuck huge castle?
>because they wanted nobody to know what was happening
No one would have known either be they secretly snuck him out. They don't even need to do that, all they need is a bit of blood. How hard could that be for the guy on the inside to get without anyone knowing?
>voldemort wanted to make a big event out of killing harry in the tournament
Ah I see, Voldermort's one weakness is he is a fucking idiot. I can understand hubris or stupidity in villains but Rowling has no idea how utterly stupid it is. She could have orchestrated something where Voldemort gets fucked over by his pride that doesn't saddle him with the intelligence of George Lucas.
Voldemort has a massive ego? you think he doesnt want everyone to be talking about how he completely nuttered the ministries first triwizard tournament in however long. he had a massive hard on the entire time thinking about the headlines
>money
slave labor and witchcraft and wizardy
how does voldemort masturbate? does he use nagini has some sort of fleshlight/dildo combo?
If voldemort succeeded he would have been utterly feared. Hell he pretty much already was in failing, he caused the ministry to break down like a bunch of limey wankers
>masturbate
he uses all of the unforgivable curses and amortentia on muggles or witches ill let you figure out which order
No? Im not a manchild?
>He thinks elitism necessitates pretension
>He doesn't know what pretentious means
To be pretentious requires a posturing about something, not having an attitude towards something. That post could have been written by a pretentious person but it doesn't have to be.
Say person A likes classic music and dislikes rock music and tells person B this who holds the opposite opinion. And say that person B asks a question which allows for this. Is person A pretentious? We don't know. We don't have enough information because we don't know why he holds the opinions he does (which is the element that makes someone pretentious).
This person dislikes Harry Potter and thinks it's shit. Since it is not the opinion that makes someone pretentious but the way in which it relates to other people this person gets a pass for this. So far not pretentious. Next they set up a set of things they think are better. Again as for reasons already stated not pretentious. It ends with some elitist quotes, but considering that elitism is not a necessary component of pretension they also get a free pass.
There is nothing in the post which makes that person pretentious. They could be, but there is not enough material provided to know for sure.
i've watched all of those films and more, what's your point
Jesus christ youre a tryhard pushing that stale pasta
You're talking to people that only watch capeshit and flavor of the week television shows like DR WHO
Why would a school have a group of people where everyone is the bad guy. Why did she write Slytherin to be so bad?
>he uses all of the unforgivable curses and amortentia on muggles or witches ill let you figure out which order
wait since the imperius curse makes people your slave does that mean voldemort can make woman just fuck him whenever he wants?
and then he could imperius the husbands and make them unwilling cucks while he slams his basilisk inside their chamber of secrets?
Jesus fuck this was cringey tryhard fuckery
Did you just pass Lit 101 today in Freshman year?
You are a sad faggot who is really trying here
Memes don't equal a definition.
But your link agrees with
I'm sorry if you have bad reading comprehension then.
youre projection is cancer
>wait since the imperius curse makes people your slave does that mean voldemort can make woman just fuck him whenever he wants?
thats exactly what it means
>and then he could imperius the husbands and make them unwilling cucks while he slams his basilisk inside their chamber of secrets?
yes yes
"having or showing the unpleasant quality of people who want to be regarded as more impressive, successful, or important than they really are"
>than they really are
Believing that Harry Potter is shit and those other movies are better would only be pretentious if the person in question expressed such opinions in order to appear greater than they are. That is literally the position I just outlined.
And isn't that what they are doing?
Your mobile posting is showing, shitskin
He could have just half assed every test for a minute then given up and it would have been fine.
There is nothing in that post that necessitates pretension. The post is very elitist but being elitist does not necessarily make a person pretentious. The person who made it may have been but we can't know just based on that post.
>ETERNAL
>GLORY
>all those retards talking about wizards lack of math and science classes and how hopeless they would be in muggle world
who gives a shit lol? why would you care when you have magic?! you are literally demi-god on earth, you dont need ANY money, people will just do anything you want and agree to anything you want. even squib can make himself millionare and live in massive mansion with hundred servant with just couple magical items.
the problem with rowlingverse is that there exists wizarding world at all. why have wizarding world and have some wizards be bums and low wage workers when they could all live among muggles and live like kings?
You're still retarded, they explicitly say that bad injuries barely ever happen and no one's died in years; and even that might have been F&G trolling Harry. Obviously it isn't anywhere near as dangerous as you're imagining, try again.
muggle world sucks desu. and potions and divination are pretty fucking cool. potions and herbology are the science equivalents
>wait since the imperius curse makes people your slave does that mean voldemort can make woman just fuck him whenever he wants?
>and then he could imperius the husbands and make them unwilling cucks while he slams his basilisk inside their chamber of secrets?
And muggleborns are a thing, amirite?
why didnt they just use guns
if guns became popular they would probably invent some antiprojectile rings and amulets and all start wearing them. boring to write about.
see the first part of
So it's a probably pretensious post
>No one would have known either be they secretly snuck him out
Yes they would. If Harry Potter goes missing randomly from school, nobody would let that go, especially not Dumbledore or the ministry, but if he disappeared in a maze full of deadly traps as part of the competition then they could have just claimed he fell fowl of a trap and died.
this has to be the lamest thing ive ever heard. wizards can teleport, turn you into a ferret, control people, impersonate people etc
>guns not being introduced was bad
>the wands are like guns wah
>why didnt they use guns
........yea no duh a duel is like a gunfight, you will use cover and position to you advantage because you dont want to get hit by anything when fights consist of disarming spells, stunning spells and killing curses
They only need a couple of hours. He goes of for adventures all the time. No one is going to notice before he gets him out. Or if voldemort can magic the cup to teleport him to him why doesn't he magic something else. Why doesn't he just prick Harry's finger, telling him some bs why and take the blood?
The maze is the most convoluted, fail prone plan to do something really, really simple. What happened if Harry was just like nah I'm not entering? What the fuck are they going to do about it? What if he fails or dies in any of the events? What if he loses? What if the inside guys gets discovered because he is hanging around for so much longer than would be needed for a not stupid plan?
>what happened if Harry was just like nah I'm not entering? What the fuck are they going to do about it? What if he fails or dies in any of the events? What if he loses?

why are you putting so much yet so little thought. Binding magical contract. harry isnt a wuss. He wont lose because barty crouch tskes care of it, he only has to survive the third two tasks and barty helps. barty takes care of the third entirely
first two tasks*
And mad eye was infamous nobody was fucking with him except dumbeldore and dumbeldore grew a little suspicious at the end but couldnt do anything
>duel is like a gunfight
only for pleb tier wizards. dumbles and voldy were using massive and mass transfiguration like its piss easy shit. the way rowling verse works is basically
shit tier wizards who cant even protego < normal muggle < normal wizards < elite soldier < skilled wizard < very powerful wizards like moody/bellatrix/snape
yea i know im just saying people criticize the fights when they would be fast paced and adrenalized for the majority of wizards who cant duel their asses off
The plan for using Moody was actually really solid and it was kind of last minute voldemort found out the tournament was being held only a month or two before hand, thats when he kidnapped moody
But what does a binding magical contract mean? It's never explained. It's literally Rowling just magicing the plot to go how she wants to when there is no logical sense. Why doesn't he force him to be bound to some magical contract that makes him take a holiday to where he lives? It's completely arbitrary. Rowling just says I want this to happen. I don't care how it will fuck with the consistency of my universe or what loopholes or whatnot it will create because I can just use magic I make up on the spot to stop anything I realise later makes the whole thing stupid.
> he only has to survive the third two tasks and barty helps.
Yep a 14 year old only has to survive a DRAGON. What could go wrong? Are you really saying that any normal person would go "I could capture him or acquire his blood in a safe and fast method, or I could make him fight a dragon and some fish people to achieve the exact same thing. It's okay I have a guy who can give him a hint."
He'd probably call Harry 'Lily' the whole time as well.
>Yep a 14 year old only has to survive a DRAGON. What could go wrong?

he survived a basilisk, maybe he knew he was a good flyer. maybe he didnt care because its just a game breh
To add technically Harry has voldemorts soul inside him its why he can talk to snakes and part of the reason why hes so powerful. Voldemort knows harry is tough shit, probably not why but he has no problem challenging him.
Technically also Harry couldnt die because Voldemort was his horcrux
forget that last part that doesnt happen til the end of goblet
>Harry couldnt die because Voldemort was his horcrux
the fuck are you talking about. harry was voldemort horcrux and when harry dies voldy has one horcrux less, thats all. harry isnt protected by anything except plot armor.
i said i fucked that up disregard
I meant harrys blood was in voldemort so harry couldnt die unless voldemort did because his moms protective spell was in him and voldemort since he uses his blood at the end of goblet. but disregard..basically voldy likes to fuck with harry and really wanted to make headlines and give a big fuck you not only to harry potter but dumbledore and the ministry for doing it under their noses
>harrys blood was in voldemort so harry couldnt die unless voldemort did because his moms protective spell was in him and voldemort since he uses his blood at the end of goblet
horcruxes dont work that way. you dont make someone or something horcrux by just dropping some blood in them or onto something. harry had no horcruxes of his own.
harry lives because he was the owner of all 3 of the deathly hallows which makes you immune to death or some shit
no you arent understanding im not talkimg about a horcrux. i mean when voldemort revives himself with harrys blood hes effectively doubling its power and harry cant die unless voldemort himself does
it wasnt just that....but this
and the fact that he chose not to die in purgatory because he had friends and family to fight for
Lily potters protection is doubled in the graveyard scene
