lol didn't really catch the similarites, before, either. In Great Expectations, I could see the escaped prisoner who becomes a parent type person to Pip being a lot like Sirius, but Arthur. .. Hey, Mr. Weasley's name is Arthur. .. teehee
OH happy belated Bday Emma  Computer was jammed yesterday, so here's your bday wish now!
Happy happy birthday, from all of us to you. We wish it was our birthday, so we could party, too. HEY!

wow! I've never thought there are similarities between Harry Potter and King Arthur. But I do like HP much more than any King Arthur or Lord of the Rings. | |

Hmmmmmmmn..........It makes me question Rowling's sources of ideas. It just makes me think that she just feeds off other peoples ideas

that is quite funny but as we all know J.k although she is an amazing writer she has used ideas from other sources.
For example The Hippogriff is actually a mythical creature and thats where she got the idea from.
The Character of gilderoy lockheart is a real person!!!!
The names for spells are taken from latin names along with character names aswell!!!
