High geekery  
What other fandoms does HP best parallel for you?

For instance, Star Wars:
Harry = Luke
Ron= Han (or possibly C3PO)
Hermione = Leia (which is why Harry/Hermione is wrong)
Dubmledore=Obi Wan Kinobi
Voldemort = The Emperor
Wormtail = Vader (it works, really)
etc etc.....

What other movies, books, or shows can you parallel with the Harry Potter Universe? Does the character Dumbledore matches with always die :\

Discuss

Harry = Buffy
Ron = Xander
Hermione = Willow
Dumbledore = Giles
Draco = Spike

This connection supports Draco/Harry XD And Dumbledore totally doesn't die, so it's all good.

Well, yes. Obviously. I'm very much supporting the theory of Harry(Buffy) sleeping with Draco(Spike) :p
[identity profile] semirose.livejournal.com on April 10th, 2005 09:41 pm (UTC)
*wince* then Harry should be Xander, cause Spuffy=ick. Plus Xander/Spike is hot and Draco/Harry rocks. There, it all works out. ;)

Agreed. *gives cookie*


We should really make a Harry/Draco club in HiH.

mmm cookie.

hee, now that would stir up some drama.

Haha, ah yes, the Harry/Draco pusher.

My friend Massive Destruction (she's..uh, a yaoi artist if you uh, didn't know) could make you very happy. LOL.
[identity profile] flimsy.livejournal.com on April 10th, 2005 10:37 pm (UTC)
I don't force anyone to like H/D :p


Could she? Well, then, be a sweetheart and link me to her website/journal? :D

She only does Harry Potter yaoi for certian people, and only if she feels like it... so.. mostly her gallery is Naruto. I'm sure I could talk her into a H/D peice. I did get her to draw Hot Man Flesh Gendo in bondage.
[identity profile] flimsy.livejournal.com on April 11th, 2005 01:31 pm (UTC)
Beautiful art! :D

But it's okay - if she doesn't draw H/D already, you don't have to ask her to draw something, I'm sure she is busy :)

Why thank you :) My cross-genre geekiness knows no bounds!
[identity profile] pangkeryaogoen.livejournal.com on April 10th, 2005 09:08 pm (UTC)
No no no. Lol.

If you want to do this correctly, I offer a different veiw.

RON is not HAN he is CHEWBACCA.

HERMOINE is not LEIA (don't pick becuase they are both female, that's wrong)...but for the life of me, I can't think of anyone with that much brains from Episodes 4-6...

DUMBLEDORE is not OBI WAN, he is YODA.

VOLDEMORT is not THE EMPOROR, he is VADER.

WORMTAIL is not IMPORTANT ENOUGH to be MENTIONED.

DRACO MALFOY is BOBA FETT... except he doesn't have a backpack with jets...

PLEASE ignore the RANDOM capital LETTERS.

Oh, and if we switch it up that YODA is now DUMBLEDORE...death will not be an issue.

Fry- Slytherin. :P
I now have Fett's Vett stuck in my head...
[identity profile] emilie-rainbow.livejournal.com on April 10th, 2005 09:33 pm (UTC)
Except that Yoda does die in Return of the Jedi. He's being all old and weak. tells Luke there's another Skywalker, then dies and fades away.
[identity profile] pangkeryaogoen.livejournal.com on April 10th, 2005 10:27 pm (UTC)
Man..this is what I get for like...watching the entire series in 3rd grade and then... only seeing Episode 4 along with the bastardization of the series in recent years (I'm 20, 3rd grade was a LONG time ago lol)...

George Lucus needs to stop pimpin his child out or get a better vison.

Yoda still is a better match for Dumbledore. Yoda was old and wise from the start, and likes to speak in riddles!
[identity profile] rabidchild23.livejournal.com on April 11th, 2005 05:23 am (UTC)
Aha, but Obi Wan was old in 4-6 as well, and wise..but his wisdom was occassionally misguided by emotion. Much like Dumbledore's decisions to keep secrets from Harry!

Oh, and Ron isn't Chewbacca.....Perhaps C3PO...and Hermione can be R2D2 XD
[identity profile] pangkeryaogoen.livejournal.com on April 11th, 2005 01:26 pm (UTC)
Chewy is such a great character though....

Yeah, C3PO works.

XD

Yeah, Obi Wan was old in 4-6. He's not the smartest Jedi in the box, or so it seems...even in 1 and 2. Sure he survives the original massacre, but hes like the short bus Jedi.

I can just see Dumbledore pulling a 'you are now floating' on Harry. And Dumbledore's office is just about as strange as a swamp. Except Yoda doesn't have a spontaneously combusting bird.

thanks. It's the only animated icon I've ever made...I think I need a change soon though :)
[identity profile] caffienerain.livejournal.com on April 10th, 2005 11:09 pm (UTC)
Anyway. Hee. I'm going to go with my backing from previous entries this weekend, with "Lost."

Locke - Dumbledore, only he's less creepy and more cool. (Can you get cooler than locke?)
Sawyer - Draco, he's evil, and then hated and loved at the same time.
Claire - Hermione because well, she's cute and smart (Claire likes astrology!) but not pregnant.
Charlie - Ron! He's loveable and goofy but not addicted to heroin.
Jack - Harry -- kinda. Because captain hero Jack has such a horrible past, and now he's overcoming it, well, Harry is too.

ooo, sounds good. Although I can't quite get past my Jack hate to truly support it, but I can't think of anyone else for Harry.

And yay for not making Hermione Kate *hates Kate*

Honestly, I think that Harry's sort of a hybrid of Jack/Micheal/Jin.
Jack, well, because of what I posted up there ^, Micheal because he's just kind of I'm gonna stay with my friend kid and not really hang out with anyone else, and Jin because... damn. Jin is determined like whoa. Don't feel bad about the Kate hate. I'm sort of Shannon hating right now. It's like, omfg NO NOT WITH BOONE! *sighs*

Whee XD Pointing out some obvious ones... well, somewhat, at the least.

Harry: Frodo
Ron/Hermione: Sam/Merry/Pippin (fulfilling the best friend roles...)
Dumbledore: Gandalf
Voldemort: Sauron
Wormtail: Wormtongue
Dementers: Ringwraiths
James and Lily: Drogo and Primula (both parents, both dead...)

I've got to add to this (though I think you nailed the ones you did). I see Hagrid as a Bilbo-esque character to Harry. He did, after all, become the closest thing to a loving parent to Harry has had thus far. Also, I see Remus as Faramir---no reason in particular, I just think both characters kick ass and have "brothers" (Boromir by blood and Sirius by friendship) with a bad streak :).

But who the heck would Aragorn be? *ponders*

Some of me says Sirius, but Sirius sometimes seems to be a bit too rash. But they are both mentors and guides to the main character.

Merry and Pippin could also be seen as the Fred & George of the Shire. ^_^ except not twins.
