    Let’s be real, “Tom Marvolo Riddle” being re-arranged to “I am Lord Voldemort” was one of the biggest “Oh shit!” moments of our childhoods.

    • @TheAuthor4911
      @TheAuthor4911 16 днів тому +33

      No, this guy is actually on the right track! Voldemort knew his mother's protection wouldn't allow him to harm Harry as long as he lived with a blood relative (which he couldn't find because they blended in with everybody else in the entire city, you wouldn't even know he was there) and so instead of spending the time to track her down and have his servants kill her, only then to recreate a body with blood he didn't have, he used the blood of the one protected, counteracting the protection and thus allowing him to kill Harry and fulfill the prophecy. Voldemort's inability to understand love may have been his biggest flaw, but you have to admit he was incredibly smart when it came to gaining as much power over anybody as he could.

    I'll never forget first learning that Harry was a Horcrux. That had to be the first moment my heart genuinely sank. To learn that he had a piece of Voldemort's soul inside him would be like learning that your father, who you believed to have been killed, was really the villain you've been fighting the entire time.
    And James being a bully is a huge one for me. Snape's unflattering words, even when James saved him, could always be chalked up to his own bias, since people can say bad things about someone else no matter what. So to see him truly be a bully, backing up what Snape told Harry, was devastating.

    When I was a little kid, the Quirell plot twist hit me so hard when I read it. My family had all read the book so I started reading it over the pandemic. (I was like 6). I was really enjoying it, but one night my brother came into my room and told me we were going to watch the first movie. I was upset because I hadn’t finished the first book, so I ran into the living room and immediately started reading. I was on the chapter “through the trapdoor.” My family was watching the movie while I was still finishing the book, and I was really rushing through it so I could get the to end and watch the movie. But then, I reached the “it wasn’t snape. It wasn’t even Voldemort.” I eagerly turned the page and read “it was quirell” I was totally shocked and reread it like ten times. Even to this day, that’s my favorite hp plot twist. 😅❤

    One thing that I really love about the Tom Marvolo Riddle twist that makes it really underrated and interesting in my opinion is how it was handled in transitions. I’ve been studying Spanish for years, and I decided to try reading the HP books in Spanish. When I got the second book, I was dying to know how the Riddle twist was handled, since it being an anagram was very language specific. I was pleasantly surprised to learn that they had thought of that: his name was changed to “Tom Sorvolo Ryddle” which rearranges into “Soy Lord Voldemort,” and Soy is Spanish for I am

      When I was first reading book two as a kid, I had it from the library and at the page where these two things were written - Tom Marvoloso Riddle, A som i Lord Voldemort, the letters in both were pencil-crossed, someone obviously wanted to know if really all the rearranged letters were used and nothing was added 😂

      What about Wolfy McWolfenson?

Heck, I'm pretty sure I learned of the mythical Remus because of Harry potter and really couldn't tell you anything about Romulus and Remus beyond wolves being involved and them being the Mythical founders of Rome... ON a similar note, I wouldn't really expect a child to recognize that so many of the Blacks are named for celestial bodies unless they were a total astronomy nerd.
      The series has tons of meaningful names, but I'd say most of them are more Easter Eggs than hints the average reader is likely to notice on a first read.

      Admittedly, I was thinking from the perspective of an English monoglot. Naturally, it's going to be far more obvious to a native speaker of a romance language. Similarly, Malfoy and Voldemort might as well be totally made up names to English speaking ears(at least for us yanks, perhaps being right across the channel and a long history of rivalry means the typical Brit knows at least a little French), but are probably obvious in their meanings to a native speaker of French and possibly native speakers of other Romance languages.
      Or for a non-Harry Potter example, many Japanese names are just common Japanese words whose meanings would be obvious to a native Japanese speaker, but I wouldn't expect an American child stumbling upon their first anime dub that lets ethnically Japanese characters keep their original names to know what they mean, not even the ones nearly every anime fan in the Anglosphere has learned.

      A few others:
      1. Harry is a wizard and his parents were murdered. Kind of not small.
      2. Voldemort taking Harry's blood actually saved Harry.
      3. The Snitch contains the Resurrection Stone.
      4. Harry has actually seen and handled the Lost Diadem and that well-hidden memory helps him find it. (Not as big because the Diadem had only just been introduced but still really nice)
      5. Harry's invisibility cloak is a Deathly Hallow and Ignotus Peverell is his ancestor.
      6. Xenophilius Lovegood has been co-opted by the Death-Eaters and is trying to trade Harry's life for his daughter.
      7. James and Sirius were animagi.
      8. There's a horcrux in Bellatrix's vault.
      9. Saying Voldemorts name is actually, suddenly, life-threatening.
      10. Moaning Myrtle holds the Secret to the Chamber.

But whenever Snape does something that’s suspicious he’s always around Quirrell. Like when they think he’s messing with Harry’s broom and Quirrell gets knocked over, or the fact that Snape is just constantly following Quirrell around….It was so well set up and very obvious once you learned it but without knowing the context it was truly very hard to see

    Was anyone else not overly surprised at Dumbldore’s death? At the time, I figured that he would have to die in order for the stakes to get higher. With Hermione’s comment in the first book about harry being safe so long as Dumbledore was around, well, that practically screams that Dumbledore was going to have to die at some point. In a typical hero’s journey the mentor has to die or disappear in some way so that the main protagonist can complete his journey. It wouldn’t make sense for the only wizard Voldy ever feared to still be around when Harry defeated him. I don’t know… am/was I crazy?

    Surely Snape killing Dumbledore can't have been that much of a surprise, since we have him discussing the assassination plan with the sisters Black. He even alludes to the fact that he thinks it will be him carrying out the plan when the time comes. Of course, the situation is far more complext (which we don't learn until deathly Hallowes) but it is still a rather large clue. The shock comes, I am guessing, because we hope - even to the last - that can somehow be avoided. I think it is sometimes well to differentiate surprise from shock.
