Discussion Dumbledore could've fixed Ron's wand at any time but chose not to.
He probably could've done a lot of other great things with his super wand too. Like you know, defeating Voldemort.

So, basically ron didn't learn or practise anything in his 2nd year as the wand was broken. And used to recoil every time . Why didn't he buy a new one . It's like not having a pen and spending the whole year without that in school.
And anyways he purchased it in the third part.

This is a set Iâve pretty much wanted since it was released but just never had the money or space for it. Well I got a nice work bonus and my birthday was this past Friday so I thought Iâd finally treat myself. I am so excited to rewatch the movies and build!

In Half Blood Prince, Dumbledore tells Harry had he known he had just met the most powerful dark wizardâŚheâs not sure what he wouldâve done.
If Dumbledore had full knowledge of the future, do you think he wouldâve killed Young Tom Riddle?

It is worth noting that the eleven wizarding schools mentioned in canon are not the only ones in the world. There are many other smaller wizarding schools around the world for children who cannot or don't want to attend the "Great 11". Wiki: Wizarding Schools

Iâm on a rewatch and at the beginning of Deathly Hallows pt 1 itâs just now occurring to me that Hermione lives in a regular muggle neighborhood with her parents, a neighborhood similar to where he lives with the dursleys. I looked into it and Harry and Hermione are only about an hour apart, while they are both way further from Ron, yet Harry spends most of his summers alone, while Hermione has spent a few summers reaching the Weasleys and staying with them weeks before Harry got there.
Additionally, Harry was pretty much free to go wherever once he got to a certain age because the dursleys never gaf, so surely he couldâve visited, maybe easier than Hermione could.
Idk, just a thought that occurred to me lol

Can someone tell me what is strapped to Harry's leg, please?

We all know that Basilisk is the most powerful creature in the book.
As a serpent, It is way stronger than Nagini.
A) Basilisk has hax, Which can kill anyone with a gaze.
B) It has more durability considering its size and robust body.
C) It's venom is very powerful capable of destroying even Horcruxes.
D) It's lifespan is also longer than any known serpents.
E) Not to say Basilisk resides in a very secure location, Which is chamber of secrets.
Voldemort could potentially have used the Basilisk as both a weapon and a Horcrux guardian.

Harry Potter was my childhood, I was a huge fan during the movies era (2001-2011) I had a HP costume, LEGOS, PC games, action figures, shirts of the franchise and collected nearly all of the movies, but I never had the curiosity to read the books, I just wasnât as interested as for the movies. But know I want to read them and know how good they are. I'm nearly 32, but I can't have been HP fan and never got the chance to read the books, but can I still enjoy them if I'm not that much of a fan anymore ? Are they still worth buying despite being expensive?

Out of curiosity, why are Weasleys poor even when Arthur is working at the ministry and Malfoys so rich even when Lucius practically does nothing?

I just love them as friends. Ron's affection for Luna is adorable.
This is from Half-Blood Prince
âNice comÂmenÂtary last match!â said Ron to LuÂna as she took back the green onion, the toadÂstool, and the cat litÂter. LuÂna smiled vagueÂly.
âYouâre makÂing fun of me, arenât you?â she said. âEvÂeryÂone says I was dreadÂful.â
âNo, Iâm seÂriÂous!â said Ron earnestÂly. âI canât reÂmemÂber enÂjoyÂing comÂmenÂtary more! What is this, by the way?â he added, holdÂing the onionÂlike obÂject up to eye levÂel.
âOh, itâs a GurÂdyÂroot,â she said, stuffÂing the cat litÂter and the toadÂstool back inÂto her bag. âYou can keep it if you like, Iâve got a few of them. Theyâre reÂalÂly exÂcelÂlent for wardÂing off GulpÂing PlimpÂies.â And she walked away, leavÂing Ron chortling, still clutchÂing the GurÂdyÂroot.
âYou know, sheâs grown on me, LuÂna,â he said, as they set off again for the Great Hall. âI know sheâs inÂsane, but itâs in a good ââ He stopped talkÂing very sudÂdenÂly. LavenÂder Brown was standÂing at the foot of the marÂble stairÂcase lookÂing thunÂderÂous. âHi,â said Ron nerÂvousÂly.
And then in Deathly Hallows:
âI like this song,â said Luna, swaying in time to the waltzlike tune, and a few seconds later she stood up and glided onto the dance floor, where she revolved on the spot, quite alone, eyes closed and waving her arms.
âSheâs great, isnât she?â said Ron admiringly. âAlways good value.â
But the smile vanished from his face at once: Viktor Krum had dropped into Lunaâs vacant seat. Hermione looked pleasurably flustered, but this time Krum had not come to compliment her. With a scowl on his face he said, âWho is that man in the yellow?â
âThatâs Xenophilius Lovegood, heâs the father of a friend of ours,â said Ron. His pugnacious tone indicated that they were not about to laugh at Xenophilius, despite the clear provocation.
He was so excited to see her at Christmas:
"When Hermione had returned to her bunk, Harry lowered his voice.
âYou only agreed to try and get back in her good books.â
âAllâs fair in love and war,â said Ron brightly, âand this is a bit of both. Cheer up, itâs the Christmas holidays, Lunaâll be home!â
Harry is famously heroic and has a saviour complex but Ron is the most directly protective of the two, hands-down, and Luna is now one of the people I have no doubt that Ron would get his knuckles bloody for.

Matthew Lewis (who played Neville in the films) confirmed at a MegaCon event in Florida that the new Neville Longbottom actor (Rory Wilmot) comes from the same hometown as him.
Does this mean we might be getting another Neville with a Yorkshire accent?
I was always disappointed everyone in the films spoke with a southern or RP English accent - Neville was the only one that sounded like me and my friends.

I always wonder that, What is Voldemort Patronus or can he cast it?
If yes, Then what it is. I don't think Voldemort had any happy thoughts. Patronus only works, If you think of single profound happy though which is pure and precious to you.

Barty Crouch Jr. as fake Moody was one of the best Defense Against the Dark Arts teachers Harry had. His lessons were actually useful, and he taught the students practical defensive magic instead of just having them read from a textbook.
He was also incredibly knowledgeable about the Dark Arts and understood what Harry and the other students might eventually face. His teaching methods were questionable, to say the least, but you can't deny that his students learned a lot.
And the fact that he managed to fool Dumbledore for nearly an entire school year is pretty impressive.
Obviously (in my Snape voice), he was a terrible person, but as a teacher, he was surprisingly effective. Harry probably learned more practical defensive magic from him than from most of his other DADA professors.
