 * Not that I don't think the line is great, it just contradicts a concept that Dumbledore puts forward very strongly in the sixth book. Harry is told by an anxious Dumbledore (a very rare emotion for the latter) that he does have the choice to walk away from the Prophecy's prediction. The "you have no choice" line in the film blows that idea out of the water.--Yin&amp;Yang 12:10, November 28, 2009 (UTC)
 * I agree with Yin&amp;Yang, This line spoils the concept of book.Remusblack 17:14, December 10, 2009 (UTC)
 * Agreed. That's what happens when idiots try to improve perfectly good books with some corny quote for the movie.
