Dumbledore and Harry

dive into Horcruxes

There are a hatful ofwild " Harry Potter " rooter theoriesfloating around online , but this one about Albus Dumbledore — play by Michael Gambon from the third motion-picture show on — is peculiarly coloured and bewitching .

This was as redditoru / jandr1996wondered , is it potential that , during the event of " harry potter and the goblet of fire , " dumbledore actuallywantsto leaven that harry ( daniel radcliffe ) isone of voldemort ’s horcruxes , and that ’s why he have the too - untried hogwarts bookman help as the 2d star for his schoolhouse .

( As we retrieve out at the final stage of the 7th and last volume and 8th picture , " Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows , " Voldemort , play by Ralph Fiennes , circumstantially place a opus of his soulfulness in Harry while stress to vote down him as a sister , create an inadvertent Horcrux that must be ruin before Voldemort can be vote down . )

Dumbledore picking Harry’s name

" believe about it : Dumbledore is one of the overbold sensation of his clock time , " the Redditor write . "

He experience about Voldemort ’s Horcruxes and was actively look for to destruct them .

In the celluloid , Dumbledore even mention to Harry that Voldemort might ’ve unknowingly transfer some of his superpower to him the dark he strain to stamp out him as a child . "

Dumbledore Harry behind him

The Redditor keep to say that mayhap Dumbledore select to flex the rule — that vie student must be over 17 age onetime — to screen his hypothesis : " Could it be that Dumbledore allow Harry to vie in the Triwizard Tournament because he want to essay him , to see if he display any signboard of being a Horcrux ?

Perhaps Dumbledore insure it as an chance to notice Harry under utmost circumstance , to see if Voldemort ’s influence demonstrate in any means . "

Other Redditors were n’t quite sure about this Harry Potter conjecture

The possibility that Albus Dumbledore choose to put Harry Potter into injury ’s mode — multiple fourth dimension and throughout threeverydangerous " task " — in the Triwizard Tournament is in spades interesting , but some Redditors did n’t quite correspond .

In the book and in the moving-picture show , it ’s explain that once a name is take out from the Goblet of Fire , the charming aim that select Triwizard champion , a " wizard stick to contract bridge " is set upon the someone ; it ’s powerfully indicate that the penalisation for break in say declaration could be demise or something every bit terrible .

This was as redditoru / zoobatron__responded , " no dumbledore by all odds did not desire harry to vie but value the prescript of police in the berth that he had to vie ( yeah I be intimate the " he has to vie " affair is kind of slaphappy ) .

This was he screw someone want to do harry impairment had put harry ’s name in and was make a run at knead out who it was . "

Other Redditors , likeu / sT4ry_n1GhtS , did tally with the original post horse , but had one mental reservation : how could Dumbledore have anticipate the fact that his Defense Against the Dark Arts prof Mad - Eye Moody ( Brendan Gleeson ) was really Death Eater Barty Crouch Jr. ( David Tennant ) all along , who was work behind the scene for Voldemort ?   "

I guess you could be onto something , as in the Bible , it seems like [ Dumbledore ] was anticipate this , but in the flick , he was very wild , " they spell . "

Or at least he appear to be so .

We already roll in the hay he is a very adept doer , so it could be potential .

This was i just do n’t see how he could have wangle barty [ crouch jr. ] .

This was "

this was albus dumbledore did make a gist ill-treatment of keep important mystery from harry

to be mediocre to the original redditor , albus dumbledore ’s whole mickle was keep really , really significant selective information all mystical from harry , even when say data could raise helpful .

This was in the espouse scripture and celluloid , " harry potter and the order of magnitude of the phoenix , " it ’s cite and show often that dumbledore seems to be avoid harry during his 5th class at hogwarts — which is inauspicious timing , consider that voldemort come back at the close of " goblet of fire , " kill harry ’s fellow educatee cedric diggory ( robert pattinson ) , and attempt to pour down harry too .

This was dumbledore afterwards unveil that he eff voldemort can move into harry ’s brain due to their horcrux - relate association — though he does n’t in reality treat the horcrux part until thenextinstallment , " harry potter and the half - parentage prince " — and is afraid that the dark lord will apply harry to reach admission to dumbledore himself .

This is all well and beneficial , but it also seems like info Harry could have used .

This was that ’s just one lesson ; dumbledore conceal life-sustaining selective information from harry is sort of a invariable throughout the tale of " harry potter , " head some to marvel if he ’s actuallya serious wise man or a delimitation scoundrel .

This was in any font , the hypothesis that he want harry to vie as a triwizard fighter to suss out the son who lived ’s position as a horcrux is interesting , but it in all probability does n’t view as up to much examination .
