Dobby Dark Knight Send a noteboard - 19/07/2010 02:39:06 PM
Thoughts, feelings, etc.


The first time we meet a house elf. Jk Rowling sure knows how to create some fascinating creatures. I always wondered, though, how Dobby was able to stop the post owls. Did he stand outside Harry's all day long looking for owls?
Formerly Mat Bloody Cauthon on Wotmania, blessed be its name

I can't remember how much I hated him the first read Deadsy - 21/07/2010 03:44:15 AM 1925 Views
You're right. It's not as bad the second (or third) time around with him. StormCrow - 21/07/2010 01:54:01 PM 1719 Views
I don't think I ever truly "hated" Lockheart Seriana Sedai - 26/07/2010 06:09:20 AM 1722 Views
My problems with Dobby are very different from my problems with Lockhart Camilla - 21/07/2010 07:02:55 AM 1829 Views
I can see that and I understand completely. StormCrow - 21/07/2010 02:06:27 PM 1990 Views

This section really brought home to me how well Rowling writes about love and relationships. Rebekah - 21/07/2010 07:22:43 PM 1839 Views
That last remark made me check out the names in the French translation... Legolas - 26/07/2010 05:18:36 PM 1863 Views
Don't get me started on the Norwegian translation. Camilla - 26/07/2010 09:52:09 PM 1794 Views
Ahahahahaha! Rebekah - 26/07/2010 09:55:17 PM 1656 Views

I found an error i the POA preview in the back of my book Deadsy - 20/07/2010 10:51:42 AM 1614 Views

Thoughts on the movie quality Deadsy - 21/07/2010 04:15:20 AM 1536 Views
I always felt that the first two movies were the best, and the others bungled the atmosphere. *NM* lord-of-shadow - 21/07/2010 03:08:29 PM 999 Views
I wonder if Rowling ever looks back and wishes she could change some stuff Dark Knight - 21/07/2010 06:44:41 PM 1640 Views
I think this book isn't as deep or as thoughtful as the first. Rebekah - 23/07/2010 11:36:17 PM 1685 Views
I feel the same way. aria - 24/07/2010 01:04:39 AM 1564 Views

I'm indifferent 'cause I can't find my copy of POA *NM* Deadsy - 26/07/2010 01:27:05 AM 1069 Views

we need an impatient smiley that taps its foot while looking grumpy. *NM* Camilla - 27/07/2010 08:51:30 PM 979 Views
More than anything! *NM* Seriana Sedai - 27/07/2010 09:01:33 PM 986 Views
It's not Wednesday yet! *NM* Legolas - 27/07/2010 09:26:21 PM 897 Views
But it was a question: Camilla - 27/07/2010 10:25:27 PM 1586 Views
Yes, but the two possibilities in Rebekah's post were either Wednesday or next Monday. Legolas - 27/07/2010 10:33:10 PM 1946 Views
