Ridiculous Fan Theories
Quote from Heatherlly on March 14, 2023, 1:14 pmQuote from Naaga on March 14, 2023, 1:03 pmTheory: J.K. Rowling is Rita Skeeter
It assumes that Hogwarts and Harry Potter are for real. Basically, Rita Skeeter gets fired for being an unregistered animagus, and decides to out the Wizarding World as revenge. But her books are treated as beloved fiction instead of fact, so she just decides to enjoy the wealth and fame under her pseudonym of J.K. Rowling. It's a little far-fetched, but that's just want Rita would want you to think.
I'm into this.
I like the idea that, considering Skeeter's reputation as an unreliable source, that the Harry Potter books are completely inaccurate aside from the name of the main character
Then, the Cursed Child can be considered non-canon. The HP books are unreliable narration and CS is a badly written fanfic(her original work) on the Harry Potter. 😹😹
... I already considered Cursed Child to be non-canon. 😂

Unfortunately, it is called canon by JKR, or um, Rita isn't it 😜, so pretty much non-canon for me.
Yes, some of those are crazy, but some of them were during the earlier years when few of the books had been published. And many of the theories were by children. I do believe the one that Ron was Dumbledore from the future came out after book 3, because the time turner was introduced. There really wasn't much to go by and many of the earlier theories were out there and really seem crazy now. So I don't want to judge so hard, because even if I don't remember all of my theories, I bet some of them were crazy. 😊 I know some theories I agreed on were shut down by others and then they ended up being true. I don't mean to sound preachy, but I guess I am defending some of my crazy theories. 😅
I do admit that when I first heard the theory that Lily was pregnant and was planning on asking Snape to be godfather, I thought that was crazy. I still do, but then I start thinking. Maybe Lily was going a little crazy like Sirius not being able to go anywhere and staying cooped up in one house. Maybe she got hit by a curse that made her a little cra-cra. I actually think it might make some good fanfiction. I think it inspired me to draw Lily with crazy eyes.
Okay, I enjoyed reading others theories and thought anything was possible. We won't know until book 7. It was fun. I started to look at Fantastic Beast theories and did find the one about Queenie and Jacob being Snape's grandparents interesting. Do any of you remember your theories? Did any of you get clue books to come up with your own theories?
