Rotten Red Rod posted:The script was leaked a while ago and it proved to be totally real. So yeah, that's what happens. Dumbledore's big plan is to bring the one remaining live magic deer to the magic president crowning ceremony so he can prove Grindlewald's one is a fake (it's a zombie controlled by Grindlewald). They do this by having groups of the protagonists carry identical briefcases, only one of which has the deer, to misdirect Grindlewald's minions. So once again it's barely about Newt at all. Isn't this just exactly the same plan as one of the books/movies? Also: Wizards can teleport in like three different ways why is this always the plan

There's two Grindelwalds at the start of the second film too, to distract... someone.

IIRC it's that they're taking Harry to the Burrow which has a shitload of defensive charms thrown over it and the surrounding area, including anti-apparation magic. Also can't use floo because "it's being watched" or whatever and I think Jo just forgot about portkeys. Also all these defensive charms work on final boss underling rules for some reason because the second the ministry falls they're instantly shatter and a shitload of death eaters descend on the wedding. Honestly the first couple chapters of DH feel a lot like JK had some set pieces she wanted to hit and just connected them in the most straightforward, lazy way possible.

JKR really is the queen of writing herself into a corner, and then attempting and failing badly to paper over the plot holes. There's no good reason they couldn't have apparated or portkeyed to, like, a mile away in the other direction. But whatever, she was writing movies at that point and needed a chase scene.

Are we saying "magic deer" because the idea sounds like it was ripped from Blue Rose? Or is it an actual deer. Because if it's the latter then  at how blatant it is.

In Order of the Phoenix, Dumbledore lost his jobs as Chief Warlock and Supreme Mugwump because the magic deer kept reading Daily Prophet propaganda.

Look, the deer picks based on heart purity, not on actual qualifications so for a multi-polar wizarding world this is probably an improvement.

Does a pure heart even require any moral baseline, or is it just a matter of being unconflicted? Would the magical deer elect a Terminator because of its pure desire to kill its target?
