7. I gave you a partial credit on that one
8. Correct!
11. No points, you got the easy part
13. Correct!
14. Correct!
18. No points...I need the full name.
19. No No No No! And thank goodness!
EDIT: And Bellatrix was Sirius's cousin, so I'm gonna guess her maiden name was Black. Also I just imbd'd the director, so I won't say it. But he would've been awesome.
9. Correct!
16. You got the original response from JK, but she has recently changed Ron's occupation to something else...and the second answer somewhat makes more sense...
I don't know about awesome (on JK's director pick), but it would have been much more strange...
But....like Stanley Kubrick.....his films are the director's films first.....even when Kubrick did The Shining, it was a Kubrick film first....
.....I just think JK's story would have gotten lost in this director's vision....
Expect more questions tomorrow....
5. October 31st (Halloween) of 1981

15. Teddy is Lupin and Tonk's son, Victorie is Bill and Fleur's daughter
23. Harry becomes Albert Runcorn, Ron becomes Reginard Cattermole, Hermione becomes Mafalda Hopkirk
Also, I'm pretty sure there were only 5 people in Harry's dormitory, although I could be incorrect.
You would be correct about the people living in Harry's dorm for books 4 through 6....
EDIT: Not to question your authority, but I'm almost positive each house has 5 people per gender per year. And I agree that Rowling's vision might have gotten lost. She's really particular about that, and I'm pretty sure that's why she stopped negotiating with Disney.
So the six are Harry, Ron, Neville, Dean, Seamus, and Peter.

A: Harry Potter 7b - $44.6m, breaking the old record of $30m set by The Twilight Saga: Eclipse.
Nice.
31. Cornelius Fudge, Rufus Scrimgeour, Pius Thicknesse, Kingsley Shacklebolt
32. Harry repairs his wand and returns the elder wand to Dumbledore's tomb
37. He blows it up himself by hitting an Erumpent horn with a spell
38. The death eaters destroy it after he breaks the taboo
49. Repairs minor injuries, such as a broken nose
52. Finite Incantatum
55. Temporary connect the Dursley's house to the floo network and transport Harry directly to the Burrow. I believe this was done in the fourth book and didn't violate any laws at that time, so it seems like it would work again.
Also, I went to see Deathly Hallows: Part 2 at the midnight showing last night. It was very good, but there were a ton of changes from the book. Probably my second favorite installment after Prisoner of Azkaban.
Question 32:
It is put back in Dumbledores grave
Question 33:

Cruciatus - The Torture Curse
Imperius - The Mind Control Curse
Question 48:
Prevents doors from being opened.
Question 49:
Heals minor injuries like a broken nose.
Question 50:
Expelliarmus
Question 51:
It attaches a secret to a persons soul and prevents anyone but the 'Secret Keeper' from revealing the 'secret'
Question 52:
I dont know if there a universal 'cancel all magic' spell, A shield charm can deflect them, or perhaps you are referring to the 'Thiefs Downfall' which will remove all concealment charms (polyjiuce potion, Ageing potions, Invisibiity spells etc)
Question 53:
I believe this is the tickling charm
Question 54:
The 'Wronski Feint' is a tactic employed by seekers in quidditch where they pretend to spot the snitch, fly very fast and the ground, hoping the opponent will follow and then pull up sharply. The aim being that your opponent not manage to do so and hit the floor.
Scoring and more question are in process.....standby.....

YES!!!
It is doubtful that Dobby did anything more than just stun Peter (part of the code of the house elves)....but in the book, Wormtail's magical hand punishes him for is momentary lack of resolve...

The only problem with this method is that the house was being monitored for magic....but that didn't stop all of the others from taking Polyjuice in the Dursley's house.

Well, I d have to say that if we go by the current spells we know of then the creating of Horcruxes would have to be considered the 4th unforgiveable and with that in mind, I would like to venture the Stealing of ones soul capturing it within an object. Someone elses soul. This would violate the highest of morals and solidify with what we have heard of the way Horcruxes are crested. Forcibly removing someone elses soul may actually be worse that Avada Kedavra.
*************************************
Question 83:
(To rectify, Avada Kedavra was used to destroy a horcrux, Harry was attacked with it which in turn killed the part of Voldemorts soul taht was traped within him. Just saying...)
Considering that we are expected to be creative here, I would say that throwing it through the Veil (as seen in Order of the Pheonix) would work.
*************************************
Question 84:
Well for one he wouldnt have sent his Patronus to lead Harry to the Sword. Noe would he have given his memories to Harry. I think however, most importantly, he would not have stayed at Hogwarts. This really was the key to everything, If he wasnt at Hogwarts then no doubt the school would have been in a much more dire situation than it was when Harry returned. I could easily see Him finding ways round the enchantments on Grimauld Place and leading Voldemort to the Order. Essentially, Harry gets it right. Snape was the Bravest man. What he must have endured from both sides, the suspicion, the scorn. Fact that he stayed true to Lily was testament to his powers. I think a better question would have been, "If Neville were the chosen one, Would Snape have effected the war" and I think he would. He was a very powerful wizard, Able to hide his mind from Voldemort, and Brave. in addition to the reasons already mentioned, to stand up to the Dark Lord with no visual weakness, yes in my opinon, had Neville been the chosen one, then Vldemort would never have fallen and Snape may well have been the second most dangerous wizard in history.
*************************************
Question 85:
Im sure that the TPA crew would have ideas about this. Obviously you could just remove the Lost Continent, turn it into Diagon Alley which is a very obvious choice. Id go the other way. Id try to incorporate the Pteradactyl Fliers. Make them Brooms, its a fairly easy thing to do, as Much as I love the Jurassic park ride, you could change that into a 'Tour of Gringotts' and have the drop the Thiefs downfall. Even add in a waterfall at the top of the drop. AND expand into Lost Continent. The Atlantis tour could easily be swapped to a tour of Nurmengard. The Triwzard Tournament could be shown daily at dusk, lots of special effects, wands, Death Eaters, the whole shibang. Wouldnt require much, just a redressing id imagine.
*************************************
Question 86:
In truth I dont think it would have made much difference. Lucuis was already deemed surplus by Voldemort, his sons defection wouldnt have changed much other than maybe Luciuis being killed, but ultimately it would have effected the events. Voldemort was always going to want to kill Harry and so i dont think the fact Dumbledore was alive could have changed his mind on that. It may have delayed things by a year at most, BUT like Dumbledore says, Harry would have chosen to hunt him down anyway, so chances are, it wouldnt have made a difference. Maybe even made things harder for Harry. Having your mentor alive is a temptation to seek help or at least advice and then Voldemort would have kown where Harry was. I dont beleive that Draco had the sense to remove the vanishing cabinets on his return in the last year and I would guess Death Eaters would have found a way into the Castle regardless of the defences. The thing is here, The over riding thing is, The Prophecy was heard and it was going to be fulfilled. It really doesnt matter if Draco went AWOL or Albus lived. Voldy was out to kill Harry and he wasnt going to let anything stop him.
*************************************
Question 87:
Im a fan boy. It should include an online Hogwarts V Deatheaters battle IMO but ill buy it regardless.
*************************************
Question 88:
Again, as before. Ginny and Harry as a couple I dont think would have changed a whole bunch. If we assume that all other things are the same and only their relationship changes, Harry would still have gone off hunting Horcruxes. The only think I see changing is Ginny going with them. And with Ginny, maybe Ron would never have done a runner. Other than that it would be pretty much the same. For the reasons stated in Q86
#85- I would love to see WWOHP expanded. Keep in mind since I dont have to scale plans and demintions from the park I am not sure all of this would work but here it goes. I think they should turn the area between WWOHP and the Sindbad Show into Diagon Alley I think there would be enough room to do it and then they could leave part of Lost Continet and they could leave Mythos untouched. Now somewhere in LC (which wouldnt be very big anymore) they would need to fit a ride of some kind because the only things left would be Mythos and Poseidons Fury. In Diagon Alley they could use the Sindbad Show building to turn into Gringotts and make a Gringotts roller coaster simular to The mummy type of coaster. Then the could move olivanders wand shop to Diagon alley and make it a little bigger to move the crowds of poeple through faster. I figure trying to use some of the existing buildings and not taking over all of the Lost Continet would be the most cost effective way of expanding WWOHP.
28. Ron's wand came from one of his brothers and it was broken by the Whomping Willow in his second year
29. Harry's wand came from Ollivander's and was broken by Hermione's Confringo curse in Godric's Hollow, but later repaired with the Elder Wand.
76. Tag your partner and attack Mrs. Norris.
And for number 65, Gellert Grindelwald was killed by Voldemort in the book but lived in the movie, so he is a possible answer as well.
Edit: Oops didn't see someone else had answered. Skipped the last few posts.

Question 81:
According to Lego, how do you make Polyjuice potion?
Brent Moody: step 1, take bicorn horn smash with hammer put in cauldron, stir clockwise. step 2, take 5 knotgrass plants grid them and put in cauldron and stir counter clockwise. step 3, take boomslang skin cut up with knife put in cauldron and stir clockwise. step 4, (final step) take 5 leeches and smash with hammer and put in cauldron and stir counter clockwise.
Ed: This is I think how you would really make Polyjuice, but not in the Lego environment....it is much simpler.
Alan Hiscutt: Well, I d have to say that if we go by the current spells we know of then the creating of Horcruxes would have to be considered the 4th unforgiveable and with that in mind, I would like to venture the Stealing of ones soul capturing it within an object. Someone elses soul. This would violate the highest of morals and solidify with what we have heard of the way Horcruxes are crested. Forcibly removing someone elses soul may actually be worse that Avada Kedavra.
Ed: Seems reasonable....any other ideas?
*************************************
Question 83:
Come up with a better way of destroying the cup, without Ron using parseltongue.
Eric S: they should've used Avada Kedavra
Ed: I think that would have tried that already on the locket and would have found that it didn't work...
Alan Hiscutt: Considering that we are expected to be creative here, I would say that throwing it through the Veil (as seen in Order of the Pheonix) would work.
Ed: It would seem logical, but the attributes of the veil were never fully explained, we might just be putting the horcrux in a location where we could never get at it to destroy it.

"Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone" is a considerably shorter book with no sequels required.
Hogwarts - First day of classes
Snape: "Welcome to Potions class. Avada Kevrada! The rest of you will turn to page 73."
At the beginning of book 6, Snape mentions to Bellatrix and Narcissa that when Potter showed up at Hogwarts, there were some who thought that he would be the next dark lord and they were not eager to kill the boy because of that.
And the fact that since the Dark Lord had been missing for so long, he thought that he was gone for good.
@ Alan
The only ones I didn't give you credit for were the ones where your answer was close to "not much". While a perfectly good answer on its own, and arguably very accurate, I was hoping someone would take the opportunity to think outside of the box....at which point "not much" is not much of an answer......and lets be honest.....it is not like you need the points here, you answered every other question I could come up with and several before I even had the question....
@ Everyone
Alan and I are seriously considering doing more trivia challenges. While we have a couple of ideas (or lets be honest here....they were Alan's ideas), we are interested to see what types of trivia challenges people want and what type of format we want it in. The free form of this thread seemed to work ok, but it did have its issues (mainly with the host, but I will attempt to be better about that).....this is basically a plea for ideas to make this better.....
@Everyone
the trivia(s) we may or may not do are not set in stone yet, as jeff said any input would be greatly recieved. I myself would love a star wars one (but thats because I am a geek) but keep in mind the theme of TPI, so we wont be doing a Boston legal one for example (again that sucks. Love that show)
