Harry Potter Question

Hi all. Well, we all know that I have too much time on my hands, so I've been re-reading the Harry Potter books, and have just completed number three. Now, after finishing book six, I have definitely realized that there is more to all the books than I originally thought. Everything is planned to a tea (tee??), and everything has meanings. Near the end of the third book, when Lupin and Black are going to kill Pettigrew, Harry intervenes and tells them not to. Dumbledore later says that when one wizard saves another's life, they are forever in debt to them, and one day Harry will be glad that he saved Pettigrews life. My question is, has that day happened yet? I can't remember....I mean, I just read the fourth book like, 3-4 months ago, and that has a big part with Harry and Pettigrew in it, but I don't think Pettigrew saved Harry or anything. So, I wonder if that will be incorporated into the 7th book somehow...
And another thing I've realized-I haven't read books 1-3 in a long time, since before the movies came out for those books and GOD, they changed more than I realized! Especially the third book-it's like, completely different, and much better than the movie!!! It's so weird. I've watched the movies at least two times each, and I've watched all of them in the past month or so, so I remember things in my head how they are in the movies, and it's just totally weird when they don't happen in the book! I seriously wonder what they did to the fourth book in order to make "Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire". I hope it doesn't suck!
Anyhow, that's my Harry Potter rant. You all must be sick of Harry Potter by now....I've become obsessed. I've even started looking at a couple of websites and stuff, which I've never done before. Ahhhhhhh!!!!!! Internet Junkie!!! Oh well....

Hi Joanne,

Seems to me that no one knows the answer to your question. I am no help as I haven't read the books at all. Love you.

No kidding....all you Harry Potter geeks out there! Sheesh!!!
Although after reading the first chapter of the fourth book, I must admit that Wormtail was trying to divert attention away from Harry Potter being used in Voldemort's plans....but I don't think that he's saved Harry yet in any of the other books....

No, I'm pretty sure any acts of Wormtail in the fourth book were simply out of cowardice. I'd say that when this bond actually comes into relevant effect, Dumbledore's words would be remembered for the readers' sake.

I wouldn't know as I am still reading the 5th book. Which apparently means I'm not a real Harry Potter fun.:P
So guess what!!! I found a new home and mine is sold. I move 3 weeks from today AHHHH. No pressure. I"m just moving accross from Millwood town centre on the South side into a townhouse. So that's my news and why I don't have time to read much.lol

Have you ever wondered how Percy ended up with "Scabbers"?? There's some thing up with Percy...but I just can't put my finger on it.

Remember the very first chapter of HBP where Snape was keeping Pettigrew as a "servant"? I bet now that Snape is on the run for killing Dumbledore, Pettigrew will help out the good side to give out as much info as he can on Snape so that he can stay out of Azkaban. He will prove very useful, but only to save his on skin, as he is quite the "worm". That's what I think!

Also, did you find the part in OOTP about the kids finding a locket? I haven't checked yet...just wanted to know if it was true.

I have indeed wondered how Percy ended up with Scabbers....that could be something coming up!!! Oh yes, and I haven't gone back and looked up the OOTP locket thing, but it did mention the exact same thing on mugglenet.com, I think. Either that or thesnitch.com. One of those...and Pettigrew is definitely a worm....

Well all of you HP Fans, I seem to have inspired you to answer Joanne's posting.

Maybe Oscar and I should begin reading the HP series.......

Love ya!!! Mom

You definitely should read the HP books! They're awesome. You would probably like them, actually. I'm sure Oscar wouldn't sit there and listen though...

Mommy, I am offended that you think that I wouldn't sit and listen to Harry Potter. I would listen to them while sleeping in my little bed, cuz I AM CUTE!!!!!!

Luv, meow meow meow OSCIE
