"I don't think I mention a graveyard!"

Hey readers. Sorry about the fact of no post earlier today, I have been busy at school (like always). I said though that I was going to do a couple of Blog Post's today, so here we go with the first one. Before I get to it though I would like to say that Potter's Army is approaching 100 Blog Posts. This Particular Post is the 98th Blog Post I have done here on Potter's Army, so lets get to this post shall we.

Now in this post I want to talk mainly about the graveyard scene in Goblet of Fire. What about it really can I talk about it? Well I know we all know what had happened there, but I want to briefly go over that scene because it has got to be my favorite scene in the Goblet of Fire movie, but I think it hits my top 10 favorite Harry Potter movie scenes. Well we all know that Harry had gotten to the Graveyard in the third task of the Triwizard Tournament. He and Cedric had made it to the cup, but it took them to the graveyard where Lord Voldemort and Wormtail were waiting for Harry. Cedric was killed by Wormtail on Voldemort's orders. Then Harry gets tied up to a statue/tombstone, and the Wormtail starts the incantation/potion thing. "Blood of the enemy!" That is where Harry is needed. Wormtail takes blood from Harry's arm by cutting it with the knife he had just used to cut of his own hand (movie). Lord Voldemort then rises once again. He has taken full body form once again. We all know this, and of course I didn't go into super detail there I just gave the brief overview of what had actually happened in the graveyard. Read Goblet of Fire for a more (and greater) detailed version of that part in the Harry Potter series. Actually read all of the books because they are amazing am I right? Anyway lets get back on subject here. Now what do I really wanna talk about the graveyard for? Well I want to discuss the importance of this scene really. Yes, I know we all know it is an important scene because this is where Lord Voldemort comes back. Well that isn't the importance I am talking about! Rewind four years. What would be today's date? February 2nd, 2007, before Deathly Hallows was out, and when we were giving guesses on if Snape was 'Good or Evil?' Remember those times, ah so long ago. Why did the time have to pass? Okay sorry got to get back on task. Yes so that is what I want to talk about Snape being good or bad. Not a lot to talk about with this graveyard scene, but it is what I want to talk about. I always thought Snape was Good, but I thought Dumbledore was never dead too. I will talk about this all another time though. So what about Snape and this scene. Well while I was waiting for Deathly Hallows I re-read the Harry Potter Books several times, and when I always got to the Graveyard scene here when Lord Voldemort talks to his Death Eaters. He says these words which made me think I was right in Snape being 'Good' like I thought he was, "One, too cowardly to return . . . he will pay." If you do not remember this part in the book, just go to page 650 of Goblet of Fire, this section can be found at the bottom of the page! When he says that though I thought he might be talking about Snape. Which might have been correct though, even though Snape did his apology to Voldemort that we learn about in Half-Blood Prince which makes us to believe he is 'Evil.' We never really know Snape's true fate until the end of Deathly Hallows! :( So yeah I just wanted to point out a significant section in Goblet of Fire, a detail someone could have overlooked. I am sure some of you all made that connection too.

Well, this was kind of a LookBack Post as I would like to call it. I will be doing some more of these kind of posts in the future I think. I know though that this post wasn't a very good one, but I thought I'd put it up here and let you all be the judge though! So, thanks for reading this post though. I hope you enjoyed it! Make sure you tune in tonight or later today for a Book Excerpt, and maybe another Blog Post. A book excerpt for sure though. Also make sure you email me at noahmarkbitney@gmail.com with questions, comments, suggestions, a PicPost, or your very own blog post! Thanks again for reading though, and I really hope you enjoyed this post even though it wasn't all that great! :D

Potter's Army Redesigned

Well hey readers!!! As I said I was going to at least but a Blog Post out about the new features today on February 1st of 2011. Every month I want to try and create a new theme for Potter's Army with some significant thing to do with the Harry Potter world. This month's I choose to do the books of Harry Potter. Well why didn't I choose the Blog Picture for this particular blog post to be a book cover or something? Well it has something to do with the new theme, a certain feature in this theme. I will get to that later though. So, you all know what this blog post is going to be about, it is going to be about the new theme of course. I will of course go back to my regular random Harry Potter thing's posts tomorrow. So lets get to it! :D

Well the first new feature I want to talk about is the flashback section. It is labeled as, A look back at Harry Potter book history. This feature is pretty self-explanatory. It will be updated daily now that I have my laptop at a fully mobile capability. It just is a daily basic flashback about anything that has happened in the past about the books. I am really hoping you will all like this. The next thing I want to talk about isn't really a new feature it's just changing a little bit for this month. The Quote of the Day section is normally a mix between Book and Harry Potter movie quotes. For just this month it is just going to be book quotes, since the main theme of Potter's Army this month is the books. Now another completely new feature that I have added is called the Chapter Image of the Day. It is a random Chapter Image (USA version) from the Harry Potter books, that will be updated daily, it is the Chapter Image of the Day! One special thing about this particular thing is that if you click on the image it takes you to another page on Potter's Army that is only assessable through this image, and on this page it shows you all (almost) of the images from that particular book that the Chapter Image of the Day is in. So, make sure you check that out. Now a really anticipated feature that has been added to the blog is the Potter's Army Facebook Page! I have had a lot of people asking if there was a page to 'Like' on Facebook for the blog, and I never had made one because I was running off of my iPad. Now, I have a laptop and there is a 'Like' Page on Facebook, the link for the Facebook Page is on the Potter's Army entertainment sidebars. So make sure you 'like' Potter's Army on Facebook. Another thing on the Facebook subject, there is a share bar for you to share Potter's Army to your Twitter Page or Facebook Page. Now another new little thing added is the Part One DVD countdown. I know not for the books, but that was just added today since the release date for Part One on DVD date was actually released today. Thought you might like that?

ANNNNNDDDD NOOWWW FOR THE LAST NEW FEATURE ON POTTER'S ARMY!!! As you might have noticed that the links on Potter's Army are green, and then whenever you 'hover' your cursor (laptops, and desktops only) over the link it turns blue. WHY IS THAT? IS THERE A REASONING BEHIND IT??? YES THERE IS!!!!! The green is for Harry's eyes in the book. He has green eyes, Jo has made that specifically clear in the books. BUT in the movie's, Danielle Radcliff has blue eyes (which is why I chose the image I chose). So, I made the links green and blue just to show the significance of Harry's eyes! Not really cool I know, but I thought it a neat feature to add.

Now thanks for reading about all the new features on Potter's Army. I am hoping you will enjoy them throughout this month. I would love to hear what you think about the new features, email me at noahmarkbitney@gmail.com with your thought's on them please. I want to hear your feedback. Make sure you email me though too with your own blog post you might have, a PicPost, questions about anything Harry Potter, or comments too. Again I am hoping you will enjoy the new features. If I add anything I will make sure to all let you know, and hey also remember to tune back in tomorrow for my back to regular posts! Thanks again for reading, and remaining loyal to Potter's Army.

P.S.
Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part One DVD release date was released today! April 15th it is going to be released. I will talk about all of it tomorrow, if you want to know more about what features will be in the Blu-Ray Combo Pack, and the DVD features tune back in tomorrow, and for a Book Excerpt. Thanks again for reading! :D

A Bellatrix Lestrange PicPost

The craziest and dumbest person I've ever known in the wizarding world. I hate Bellatrix Lestrange's character (maybe that's a funny one, but whenever i see her on the movie.. I'm irritated. hahha) I've known Bellatrix for being so loyal to Lord Voldemort, but who thought that Mrs. Molly Weasley destroyed her, that's when she tried to kill Ginny. "You dare speak his name with your unworthy lips, you dare besmirch it with your half-blood's tongue, you dare.." the most unforgettable and worst line of hers to Potter, how dare she spoke to Potter like that. haha. But it's amazing how Helen Bonham Carter portrayed her role, that freak Death Eater only knows how to kill nor to serve only his master without any doubts and hesitations.


P.S. Hey readers make sure you tune in later for all the info on the new Potter's Army design, and another post! So, two more post tonight! :D

Going back in time

Hey readers, before we get to today's blog post I wanted to say a few couples thing about the blog like I usually do. Well, I would like to say thanks for all the page views in these past day's as I continue to blog! That was over the weekend though, and now we have reached the week and yet no new battery for my computer! I will not be able to update things to the blog until at night every night (if I can). So, please be patient with me, I will get posts out during the week and update features in the blog, just not until at night. Once I get my battery I can take my laptop to school, and fix up the blog during some of my classes. I use my iPad, now just as a media thing and to check my stats for the blog! I will use it sometime to do a blog post, but I prefer to use my laptop here. So, well thanks for reading all of that, now lets get to the really important thing, THE BLOG POST.

Well, well, well we all know what the above image is from do we not? The third Harry Potter film, Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban. Well what about this image is so important? Well for tonight's blog post I have decided to do a post on the magical object that was introduced in this book/film, and at this exact part we find out about it (well a little bit after this scene). I think you all know what I am talking about, The Time Turner. Hermione used it to get to all of her classes all year long in their third year at Hogwarts. She took extra classes in her third year, so she need to use the time-turner to turn back time to go back to some of those classes. We all know this from reading the book, but now what I wanna talk about tonight in this blog post is, what if you had a time turner? What would you do with the power to turn back time? Would you change anything in your life that happened? Would you go back in time to go back and change a certain event in history (like 9/11)? What about going to meet someone you've always wanted to see that is now dead? Well I am going to answer some of those questions for me. I want you though to answer them please? Email me at noahmarkbitney@gmail.com with the answer's to some or all of those questions and I will put it online for other Harry Potter fans to read (if you do not want it online please tell me in the email).

So the first question I asked is: What would you do if you had the power to turn back time, would I change anything in my life that happened? Hmmm. . . I do not think I would do that. I believe that everything happens for a reason. Everything that has happened to me to this day has a certain purpose for happening. An example is that if I never became friends with my friend I would have never met the girl of my dreams. Yes that is a positive thing that happened. A negative thing that happened to me that turned into a positive is that, if I never lost the friend I did, I would still be friend with that jerk today and making my life feel miserable. See everything happens for a reason in my eyes. I do not know about you, but that is how I feel. So yeah I would not go back in time to change anything that happened to me if I had a Time Turner.

Second question I asked was, would you go back in time to change a certain event in history (like 9/11)? Hmmmmm I think this kind of entails with my other answer to the other question. Everything happens for a reason, even though 9/11/01 was a horrific day, it happened for a reason, there was a reasoning for that happening. I think it helped us (American's) realize that we need to fight these terrorists. Thousands of people died, but I still believe everything happens for a reason. So, no I would not go back in time to change a event in history if I had a Time Turner.

Now for the last question, If you had a time turner would you go back in time to go see a certain person that has died? (If so who?) Hmmmmm. . . . . Yes, yes I would. Who would I like to meet? Well not Jo, because she is still alive! :D I think I would want to meet either, Abraham Lincoln or John F. Kennedy. Why? Not really sure. I just thought them as one of our (American's) greatest presidents ever.

Okay okay so there are my answer's to the Time Turner questions. Now I completely forgot that Time Turner's can't take you extremely far back in time! OOOPPPSS :0 Ha, well I would still love to hear your answer's to the questions if you'd like to please because all of you who read this are apart of the blog! Well, thanks though for reading this post. I hope you enjoyed it. It is a longer one, and I hope better but your the judge their. Remember to email me at noahmarkbitney@gmail.com with your answer's, questions you may have about anything (this blog or something Harry Potter), comments, or suggestions for future posts or the design of the blog. Thanks again for reading, I really hope you enjoyed it!
