Malfoy Manor

So now they're making both the Malfoys sympathetic.

And fun fact, apparently they're filming more stuff at Malfoy Manor for season two, which again, never happened in the book.

Yeah.

So it's expounding the lore and-

So, there have been videos, uh, and leaks, but there's been like nothing.

You just see like a field and a giant, large, white stand.

And so the rumor, the leaks are that they're filming like for the Burrow or they're filming for Malfoy Manor, which again, why in Malfoy Manor is beyond me, but they set up that story for season one, so now we have all the bullshit for season two and onward.

The Burrow, to me, makes a lot of sense, 'cause it's the countryside.

know this.

yes luna also has a very sad backstory she watched her mom die in front of her so that would be really interesting to see from her point of view and also luna gets taken by the death eaters and she's stuck in malfoy manor for so long so it's like what was luna doing that whole time

Yeah,

that would be really interesting.

But we know Charity Burbage is the teacher by the time we get to the end, or rather the beginning of Deathly Hallows, because she's the one that gets kind of sacrificed in Nagini.

at that little Death Eater dinner at Malfoy Manor.

And then as we most recently read in our previous major moment, Electo Caro takes over the position and she starts teaching from the point of view of their animals.

And, you know, they forced wizards into hiding by being vicious towards them.

It was just a, it would have been a matter of where he would find him.

Like, I don't like, I don't know how hardcore Harry would go.

Like, would he capture a death eater and have them touch his dark mark and like, call him to him yeah um would he search malfoy manor for him would he maybe search uh the the forest in albania for him like i don't know that maybe voldy does go into hiding i don't know because he knows he's not protected at that point if he learns that all his horcruxes are gone he might go on the run and try to create another horcrux Like, I don't know.

I think it worked out.

Now like they're obviously, you know, unorganized and like that's their personality, right? Like not every wizard is like that.

Malfoy Manor is very manicured and all that.

But like the wizard world in general is a little eccentric and wild and unorganized and like not sleek, right? So two things.

One, it makes sense that it would look like an actual broom and not like whatever, pointed tip thing the uh like the nimbus and the original design uh from the movies right uh and then two these are all kids in school like why would they have the best type of broom harry has a really nice broom the rest of them would kind of be using so-and-so broom like okay brooms like pretty used not high-end right clean sweeps clean

Because he disarmed...

Draco at Malfoy Manor.

Yeah.

Yeah, so it's...

They're about your acceptance of that single I as, as the right reflection in the mirror of who you are and what you are about, and everything in the series takes you to that moment and Harry's real acceptance to that.

When Harry yells at that in, in the basement of Malfoy Manor, when he yells at the mirror accepting that I as his identity, man, story over.

Har- Harry has gone there.

Um, and of course the I delivers because the I is what it is.

Mm-hmm

... or, you know, Malfoy Manor [laughs] that he has taken over.

Mm-hmm.

Not only does he not have a place that's truly his own, but the depth of his claim to Hogwarts is undeniable.

It transforms the narrative from a strict, narrow coming-of-age mystery into a sprawling ensemble drama.

So it's basically toxic family dynamics at Malfoy Manor.

Exactly.

It's a very Succession-esque approach to character development.
