You loved that she wasn't in the 7th? Now that's savage. But yeah she was great in the 8th movie.

mrwalkerfour (01/07/2016) [-] he was a occlumency badass. he would literally enter the mind of the opponent and know what attack was going to come next by hearing them think it, and then reposte it accordingly. so he always knew what his opponents were going to do before they did it. he was a very powerful combat duelist.

mrwalkerfour (01/07/2016) [-] he had to be good at occlumency because voldemort would enter the minds of hhis subjects to make sure they were loyal to him, snape had to be able to trick voldemort in these situations, because if he didnt voldemort would see snapes true identity as an ally to dumbledore. he had to be capable of tricking one of the most powerful dark wizards to ever live, on a daily basis.
this is why other death eaters dont **** with him, he is second only to voldemort, maybe even stronger in some ways. the death eaters know this which is why none except bellatrix dare to show distain towards him for his years at hogwarts.

What you said is both in/correct
Severus Snape is a master of the mind arts being BOTH Occlumency and Legilimency.
He uses Legilimency to see what others think in a duel in order to know what they will do.
Occlumency is the art of defending, organising and or hiding ones mind or thoughts.
It bugs me when people, especially fanfiction writers get this wrong.

I don't think you comprehend the level of aggravation I feel when it is mixed up.
I couldn't gain satisfaction til I had left a comment about it.
It would have kept me awake at night and irritated me for days.
I don't like being in bad moods, because I get frustrated then I get angry at being frustrated, the frustrated at being angry.
I hope you understand, it is a vicious circle and so I HAD to comment.

mrwalkerfour (01/07/2016) [-] voldemort was also a very powerful occlumence, and likely always had his mind blocked from penetration, snape wouldnt have been capable of seeing what voldemort was planning. he had no idea voldemort intended to kill him until it was too late. once the snake was set on him he had no way of combating it, the snake was impervious to any attack snape could use.

lean (01/06/2016) [-] >>#14, Hard to say. He never wanted to hurt Harry, sure, but I bet you he would have gladly done James, Sirius, or Lupin. He was a dark, dark dude, with pretty much his only redeeming quality his love for Lily. If he hadn't loved her to the extent that he did, he probably would be banging Bellatrix. He was full baddie until Voldy went after the Potters, as harry witnessed in the memory.

mrwalkerfour (01/07/2016) [-] snape was never really a "dark" dude. yes he was a death eater but i feel he did that not because he had a hatred for muggles and halfbloods.
he never had a true family. he had no real friends, except lily. when lily decided to date snapes bully and hang out with snapes bullies (a seriouslly **** thing to do to be honest) he had nobody then. then lucious malfoy befriends him, and suddenly hes got friends, people respect him, people stop treating him badly. he finally feels like he belongs somewhere, and when these new friends say "we're joining voldemort" he follows because he doesnt want to be alone again. he wants to prove hes strong to his new friends and he does, becoming one of the strongest death eaters alive.
if he hadnt been with lucious malfoy and his lot he wouldnt have joined the death eaters, not of his own choice. he was a lonely young guy who jsut wanted to belong. its the same thing which gets young people into gangs, the sense of purpose of family, of belonging.

steelplatypus (01/07/2016) [-] It was also partially his own infatuation with the dark arts. It was stated pretty plainly in the books that he was enthralled by them and while everyone else was learning to simply to defend against them he was trying to learn everything about them so he could master them, even going so far as to invent his own spells (Sectemsempra being the best example). I think it's pretty safe to say that it's at least a small part of the reason he fell in with Voldemort, he likely thought there was no one alive who knew the dark arts better and probably figured he could learn a thing or two from them.
Not saying he was a muggle/mudblood hater, he was definitely not in the death eaters for the same reason as most of the others, but in a sense he was still a "dark" character.

wrpen (01/07/2016) [-] The books and the movies present two very different characters. No offense to Alan Rickman, he's a great actor, but the books play him like a villain with a few redeeming qualities, while Rickman plays him as a heroic triple agent that simply resents the protagonist. Arguably a much better character, but probably not what Rowling intended for him to come across as.

mrwalkerfour (01/07/2016) [-] rowling has stated that Allan rickmans portrayal of Snape is one of the more accurate portrayals of her characters.
he doesnt really resent harry, not as much as he shows. he simply has to be mean to harry so that there's no suspicion on the death eaters side of him. if when voldemort returned everyone noticed snape treated harry kindly theyd be asking him why and wouldnt trust him, and his cover would be blown.
he acted cruel so that if voldemort returned he could say "look ive been treating him like **** all this time i do not like them, im a death eater"
there was SOME resentment from snape, but he didnt hate harry. sometiems harry would upset him because when he looked into harrys eyes he saw lilys, everyday at hogwarts harry would be a reminder of his failure and that could make him slightly annoyed at harry for being there. the guy still risked his life to protect harry almost every year.

Eyy guys, should i re-read HP in english?
I've read the books (and a couple of them - several times) in my native language, but I am pretty sure some stuff gets lost in the translation.

They leave a lot of Minerva-badassery out of the movies. She was my favorite character and I was always disappointed when they left that stuff out.

I loved when the deatheater spit on McGonagall's face, Harry stepped out from under his cloak and said "You really shouldn't have done that..." and crucio'd the ************ . She just goes, "WHY?" And he simply says, "He spit at you."
Harry was good, but these books showed that not all good people do only nice things, not all evil people will be straight up dicks. People had depth. Harry was impulsive, had a habit of strangling people when he was pissed (Sirius, Malfoy, Mundungus) and had violent tendencies that led people to truly believe he killed Dumbledore and blamed Snape. I don't know if it was just me, but I think it was implied people thought he and Dumbledore had a perverted relationship, due to Dumbledore being lovers with Grindelwald.... or at least wanting to be lovers with him.
These books infer child molestation, rape, and torture and are still on the children's shelves and barnes and noble. wtf.

bagguhsleep ONLINE (01/07/2016) [-] I read the first paragraph then skipped ahead and read the last.
Really curious what you wrote in the four lines in between that would make your next sentence start with "these books infer child molestation, rape, and torture.." but I'm leaving it to my imagination for now.

It's mostly just extrapolating from the mythology of centaurs, and how traumatized Umbridge was after she was recovered from them. Centaurs were from Greek mythology, and they were very much about pleasures of the flesh: eating, drinking and yes very frequently, rape.

peterdivine ONLINE (01/07/2016) [-] It's **** that never made it into movie 5 like this which showed me how disappointing the movies were compared to the books. Entries before and after Book 5 had stuff cut for run-time, but Book 5 itself is easily my favorite of the seven. It's filled with details, side-stories, developments, vindications, plots, surprises, reveals, tragedies and humor.
The movie subsequently guts nearly all of them, and leaves a skeleton left for viewing. No chase scene out of the Room of Requirement when they get busted, no fights between Umbridge and the teachers, no collapse into anarchy when Umbridge replaces Dumbledore as Head, no centaur revolts, and an absolutely minimalist Cho romance, Ministry of Magic scene, and trial. Complete disappointment, beginning-to-end.

poelsemutter (01/07/2016) [-] I hear what you're saying and I agree for the most part, but I do feel like they did good by the Ministry of Magic part. especially The part where Voldemort tries to posses Harry. That felt really powerful in the movie and its probably the ONLY time i liked the movie interpretation better than the book
