My fan theory was that it would turn out that Harry was actually a squib. His only magical abilities were the ones he gained when Voldy attacked him as a baby. Harry would have to make the huge sacrifice of giving up his future as a wizard to finish off you-know-who.

@coolnerdlll6053 Год назад

@Doomzdeh Год назад

Would’ve been an amazing and tense reveal, but how would they have known that beforehand? Harry wouldn’t have known he was a Squib, and no one else would have either because they can’t tell that themselves, hence why Neville was believed a Squib until much later in his childhood.

@coolnerdlll6053 Год назад

@@Doomzdeh Maybe they'd realize that Harry and Voldemort are almost unrealistically even matched, so Harry must have Voldemort's exact skill set.

@AustynSN Год назад

I had an opposite theory. I thought it was going to turn out Dudley was a wizard, but Dumbledore suppressed his abilities as part of a deal with Petunia so Vernon wouldn't find out.

@janekof Год назад

my first theory was from a kid who had figured out that harry was indeed a secret horcrux and had to die. he surmised that harry would come back however because dumbledore is in fact not dead and teaches harry to come back from the dead like he did. basically, dumbledore is a secret animagus as a phoenix and teaches harry. the need for dumbledore not to be dead was very prevalent back then!

@riluna3695 Год назад

If y'all liked this little exploration of the past, I think there's a lot more potential here for more videos. Could do each book one by one, going over what you were _supposed_ to think (Snape stealing the Stone) vs what clues there were that it wasn't actually the case. Basically picking apart how you were supposed to "solve" each story's "mystery", or see certain twists coming. Who was the one opening the Chamber? What signs were there that Sirius wasn't after Harry? What hints were there that Mad Eye wasn't the real Moody? So on and so on. I for one think that would be truly fascinating to explore.

@Goomyx1492 Год назад

That would be a lot of fun. Also videos about pre-theories for each book would be interesting.

New theory: since wizards can travel between their portraits, all the Dumbledore portraits on the Chocolate Frog cards are connected and report back to Dumbledore, and with advent of his portrait in the Headmaster’s office, it gives them a central point.

My friend and I were convinced Fawkes was Dumbledore’s horcrux during the lead up to deathly hallows. We thought dumbledore killed grindelwald during their duel, and he was then able to make a horcrux to help defeat Voldemort

@projecteer4498 Год назад

what would interest me a lot is if he could make one even if he hadn’t killed Ariana during the duel. Considering he didn’t know and really tormented himself over it, blaming her death on himself could be seen as much more “soul splitting” than voldemort’s careless murders of others to make his own. I’d still be skeptical of him choosing to make a horcrux even if he could’ve considering the other lore theorized with that process (cannibalism, etc.), though it could work with that being the time of his life he was influenced by Grindelwald and being yet another imperfection of dumbledoor using life altering dark magic. definitely an interesting one that is fun to think about :)

@bunnybitties Год назад

Ohhh that wouldve been so good!

@AdamIsaacs4637 Год назад

This is super interesting. Fawkes is literally immortal, so if he was a horcrux and somebody attempted to destroy the horcrux inside Fawkes, would the horcrux actually be destroyed? Or would Fawkes simply burst into flames and come back with the horcrux still attached? I’m assuming the horcrux would simply be destroyed and Fawkes would continue to live on, but if the horcrux cannot be destroyed within an immortal being, then it would be impossible to kill Dumbledore 😮

@JennifuhhGilardi Год назад

@@projecteer4498yes but there is also the context that sometimes you can make a horcrux without realizing it

@JeremyLeaton912 Год назад

@@AdamIsaacs4637 yeah, I think that was a good point my friend made back in the day when we would discuss this theory. And when you factor in fawkes coming in to save Harry in the chamber of secrets, it really felt like everything made sense. I think it makes sense that he didn’t create the horcrux, because even with dumbledore being power hungry in his youth, I think he wouldn’t have been able to bring himself to actually perform the act of putting his soul into another living being. But we were 11/12 in the lead up to the deathly hallows, and we didn’t really consider the ramifications of what creating a horcrux would hold. We just thought, oh hey, that sounds like something super handy to defeat Voldemort. Lol.

@alexlazzerly3677 Год назад

I always much preferred Molly being the one to take out Bellatrix rather than Neville. Not only is it more surprising, but the symbolism of a mother's love (Molly) triumphing over obsessive lust (Bellatrix) is more poetic than just straight up revenge.

@davelemmens1396 Год назад

RAB was the first theory I came up with on my own and was the first one that it turned out I was right. I started reading Harry Potter around the time the second book was released. Being from the Netherlands, I read the Dutch translations of the books. But by the time Goblet of Fire was released, I was so eager to read the next installment that I didn't want to wait the additional 6 months for the Dutch translation to be done, so I switched to the English books. And when the Dutch translation would become available I'd read that one as well. One of the quirks of the Dutch translation though, is that they also try to translate some of the names, or at least use a Dutch version of the same name. The surname Black in English is Zwarts in Dutch, so Sirius was called Sirius Zwarts in the Dutch translation. When I read the English version of Half Blood Prince, I had no idea who RAB could be. But when I read the Dutch version, the initials were RAZ, not RAB. I immediately thought that had to be related to the Black/Zwarts family. That's how I came up with Regulus, also because he was specifically named in HBP as well.

@@hungrypandastudios6213 Harry gets a bedroom during book 1. They give it to him over the summer and only because the letters addressed to him said cupboard under the stairs. If Harry made those around him evil, then it would have affected Ron more than just on those occasions. All his classmates, especially his bunk mated, would have been affected, and they weren't. There are very good reasons for why Ron turned on Harry at those times, and you can't just claim that they fall in line with your theory just because some of them happen to coincide with prolonged periods, not when no one else has that issue. At the end of the day, if this had a kernel of truth, then JK would have added more clues and would have made it a central idea, but she didn't because it isn't a thing or it didn't occur to her to add that in. The theory is fun, but it simply isn't true. The Dursleys are just bad people. On a separate note: the locket didn't make Ron hate the locket, it just generally made him irritable. If Harry worked the same way, then his horcrux wouldn't have made the Dursleys hate him, it would have just made them more irritable towards each other. And they cared about each other a lot. Harry wasn't the source of their hate, he was the object of it.

Another theory I liked was Sirius’s wand had been turned into a Portkey before he fell through the vale. So he was being held prisoner somewhere.

Probably not. It works kinda strange -- Dumbledore mentions to Severus that he wouldn't be ripping his soul to save an old man of humiliation (or something along those words). So one would think Neville wouldn't be ripping his soul for killing a dangerous dark witch. (Plus, really wanted to see some good guys cast more unforgivables - it's war, right?)

@casssieboy Год назад

I don't think Neville is a killer. Snape's situation is different I think. Even Harry didn't want Sirius and Remus to kill Peter, because James wouldn't want his best friends to be murderers. Now that I think of it there aren't many kills that are 'justified' if you wanna call it that way. Harry knew what he was doing to Voldy but you could still call it self defense, same goes for Mrs. Weasley. Maybe it could have worked for Neville in some way but I'm happy it didn't happen.

I remember the time between books 4 and 5, it was the peak of HP craze and I got to ear some theories from friends in a time when the Internet was barely there. I remember "Harry Potter and the Green Flame" to be a rumored future title. There was also the theory that Voldemort had a daughter who would secretly attend Hogwarts in year 6 or 7. And of course, there was the big theory that Dumbledore was the actual big bad, because of "the gleam" in book 4.

@BrailleBennett Год назад

I wonder if the daughter theory inspired the cursed child at all. That would be funny if so.

I was guessing Ron would be the one to die. To motivate Harry like crazy to kill Voldemort. Thankfully I was wrong.

@BrailleBennett Год назад

I'm pretty sure J.K. Has said in multiple interviews that she meant Ron to die but then couldn't go through with it in the end. I could be misremembering though.

@RAZ3275 Год назад

I remember spending a lot of time on mugglenet and veritaserium web pages. There were so many theories back then. I remember how excited everyone got for books 5, 6, 7 and going to the internet as soon as we finished the books.

My all-time favorite HP theory was one I found in a book analyzing the first four in the lead-up to the fifth. It was that Remus and James switched bodies as part of a prank and thus, Remus was dead and James was in his body and that’s why Remus was so intent on being close to Harry while at Hogwarts and Grimmauld Place.

being a recent-ish harry potter fan (got into it 2 years ago) i am loving reading everyone’s theories in the comments. i always thought how fun it would’ve been to wait in line for the next harry potter book to release and go see the movie when it came out in theaters. but unfortunately i was a baby when the series ended.

@greglewis102 Год назад

I have always been proud of younger me for catching the one line from Petuna in OOTP or HBP where she says "that boy" and harry tells her that if she means his father then he has a name. I knew she meant Snape. Granted I missed so many other more obvious things (like RAB) but still.

I loved speculating as the books were coming out! I was an adult, but my teenaged niece got me into them, and we would anxiously await each new one. I still have an email, printed out and tucked into my copy of book six, containing some of our guesses about book seven. - We did have the diadem (a.k.a "tarnished tiara") on our horcrux list.

@DarkLordGanondorf190 Год назад

The Death Eaters catching on to the chocolate frog cards is less likely, in my opinion, than communication through patronuses. I always thought it would be incredibly obvious to see a patronus leaving or entering a building and when you know a person's patronus you even know who sent the message.

@DirtyShirt1914 Год назад

Never thought about that communicating through the frog card as a portrait. That would be amazing! Head Cannon assimilated!

@wvchemteach Год назад

A fanfic author, St. Margarets, figured out the connection the Vanishing Cabinet had to Diagon Alley before Half-Blood Prince came out. Harry uses the cabinet in her fic to rapidly get to London from Hogwarts. Another phenomenon you might want to look into is the small kerfluffle where the fanfiction The Seventh Horcrux was sold in some countries as a leaked copy of Deathly Hallows before it came out.

@lancecdcw Год назад

I love this video because I didn’t read the books when they came out like most folks. I had seen all the movies and caught most of them in theaters (the first two in my college dorm room), but never read the books. It wasn’t until SCB did a review on Cursed Child that I went back and read the books. I watched a review of Cursed Child and loved all the theory videos before that. This channel is also the reason I have a Pottermore account. So listening to this video helps me to get a peek into the thoughts and theories readers had at the time. I could only imagine. I have a different appreciation for the films and books, but I have a greater appreciation because of this channel. 🎉

@Msjangel1973 Год назад

Oh my god i bought the 7th book as soon as the shop opened and was silly enough to walk out reading it. Not even 10 meters from the door a guy in a €1000 suit came running up to me asking WHO DIED. Wow im a fast reader BUT NOT THAT FAST LOL

@crimtanecreature8903 Год назад

I've come up with a What If that I think would be very interesting. "What If Harry Potter Was A Squib". Would Dumbledore know when he was a baby? Would he tell the Dursleys? Would the Dursleys treat Harry better knowing he wasn't magical? Would Dumbledore still bring Harry to Hogwarts to learn about Magic and teach him to defend himself? Would Harry still have some of Voldemort's powers such as parseltongue? Would Harry still get a wand and would his original wand choose him?(Even though he wouldn't be able to use it). Would it be public knowledge that "The Boy Who Lived" was a squib? Would Harry still be put in Gryffindor? Would Filtch be kinder to Harry cause they're both squibs? Would Harry have more Astronomy, Herbology, History of Magic, Potions, Care of Magical Creatures, Divination(Maybe?) or Study of Ancient Runes classes instead of classes that involve using magic. Would Harry be taught how to fight without magic like with a sword, using potions or having pet magical creatures? Would Harry still go into the chamber of secrets and save Ginny? Would Harry still runaway from home and call the knight bus or meet Sirius? Would Harry still need to save Sirius from the Dementors? Would Harry still be enter into the tri wizard tournament? Would Voldemort still take Harry's blood and return? Would Harry be able to save himself and Dudley from the dementors? Would Harry still be allowed at Hogwarts when Umbridge becomes Headmistress?
