Aimee has just noticed the continuity problems in HP. Has she pondered the problems with the Sirius reference in Book 1? Let's watch and find out.
Yeah, for as much as she talks about having a plan, there are a lot of holes. Mostly little ones, but it is sloppy, IMO.
And I always go with the pulling it out of her ass explanation ("How much credit do we give the creators?" is a common problem I have with trying to predict stuff)
I just hope that if she does the "Encyclopedia of Harry Potter" as she mentioned as a possibility back when HBP was released (and I really hope she does--awesome way to share backstory she wasn't able to put in the books!), she'll be able to reconcile the plot holes.
I hope she does, too
But I think you may be a bit overly hopeful.

I missed this - what is it?
Have we talked about His Majesty's Dragon here yet? Cause dude, that was fun.
Wheee! And two more (plus!) coming!
Yay dragons!
When Hagrid shows up, in Chapter 1:
"Hagrid," said Dumbledore, sounding relieved. "At lasst. and where did you get that motorbike?"
"Borrowed it, Professor Dumbledore, sir," said the giant, climbing carfully off the motorbike as he spoke."Young Sirius Black lent it to me. I've got him, sir."
"No problems, were there?"
And that's it. Dumbledore 'knows' that Sirius betrayed James and Lily, and, yet, that's a completely neutral reaction to the reference. The whole timeline of the 24 hours immediately preceding that scene are weird, so it's just another data point of oddness.
I've always heard the fannish interpretation of that line to mean that Dumbledore was already aware of Sirius' innocence at that point.
That he just allowed him to be incarcerated etc for his own purposes, I guess.
Or that since he couldn't prove it, so he couldn't prevent it, yeah.
That he just allowed him to be incarcerated etc for his own purposes, I guess.
Dumbledore has a tendency to keep his own council. Plus there's the whole proof thing.
I don't put it past the old man to have his own reasons for things.
