| rocketpig said: I also wondered about how Dumbledore defeated Grindelwald when he had the Elder Wand. But given the rest of the book's theme about how the pursuit for power and objects is nothing more than folly, I'll give Rowling the benefit of the doubt and just say the point is that nothing is "all powerful", even the Elder Wand. It's just a really, really good wand. |
Indeed, as Voldemort and Dumbledore dueled to a virtual standstill in Order of the Phoenix despite Dumbledore's mastery of the Elder Wand.
Also, I'll add another fantastic moment in Deathly Hallows: the death and revelation of Severus Snape. An incredibly powerful moment to be sure... and one I think they captured wonderfully on the big screen. Especially with Alexandre Desplat's composition.
