I think you could make a similar argument about the liquid luck, to be honest.

Yea you're probably right, why wouldn't everybody take liquid luck before every fight? But at least with that, everybody should be taking it which would even out the luck in a way.
With the Time turners you can just go back an fix stuff. And he realized that so they were all destroyed at the end of book five and no more we're made... I mean c'mon, that's a pretty lame way to fix it

You said you read the books, right? Slughorn warns all of the students before that contest about taking too much of it.

Yea I know, but I mean if your a death eater about to invade Hogwarts, I think it's worth the side effects to go ahead and take some. The same goes for the people defending it; I think it's worth risking a little giddiness to have the castle walls luckily not fall on top of you...

So the death eaters are trying to take over the world, but they're concerned about getting reckless?

The book may have said something about it being hard to make, though.

It is supposed to be difficult to brew, but I mean Voldemort can talk to people in their minds; I'm sure he could find someone to brew him a potion you learn as a sixth year...

Did they learn how to make it? I thought they just got it as a reward for making something else.

Still though. If Slughorn can brew it Snape sure as hell can and if Voldemort asked Snape to brew it he would've had no choice.

Yea, like I said though both sides would be using it in reality so I guess it wouldn't make a ton of difference.
The Time Turner thing would be a much, much better thing to have

Books:

1. Prisoner of Azkaban
2. Goblet of Fire
3. Deathly Hallows
4. Half Blood Prince
5. Order of the Phoenix
6. Chamber of Secrets
7. Sorcerer's Stone





The Movies past Azkaban are terrible except for Hallows part 1 it was pretty good. Part 2 could have been better. Wish Chris Columbus would have stayed on.


I like all of them but I wish she could re write Chamber and Sorcerer's Stone because starting with the Azkaban, she really hits her groove and from then on the books flow better and are written better.


I loved the begining and ending of Hallows but the middle dragged on and on even though it was important to the overall story. The same thing happened with Order of the Phoenix. Great Begining and Great Ending, the middle wasnt too great
