      I'm honestly Dumbledore once. (No, I didn't possibly kill my sister, and no, the person I shall talk about is not the same gender as me.) In 5th grade I fell in love with my best friend. (You'd say it was a crush, but for me, it was love.) He said he liked me back. (He didnt.) But as the months grew, he became toxic, and made fun of me. I ended up making a desision I don't regret. I ended the 'relationship' (Rest In Peices, Bryan, our ship name) and our friendship. We are not on bad terms but are not friends in 6th grade. I am very proud of myself for doing something that at the time, seemed wrong, but ended up making both of us happier. I am very happy now, I have very good friends and am getting mentally better from all the bullying elementary school gave me.

      I agree. I dated someone like that. It was a gay relationship. He’d have me drive him places to steal things. Claiming he couldn’t work cause of an injury and he needed to care for his mother. But he was using me. Just like Dumbledore, all because he was charming and handsome, I blinded myself to what he was really doing because love makes you do crazy things.

      @memise1188 Před 3 lety +175

      @@Amirs48 the movies completely changed everything that was in the books, so it's kinda ruining the story line.
      The book says when Dumbledore and Grindelwald have their duel they don't kill each other (maybe because they still love each other). Dumbledore of course defeats Grindelwald and the Elder wand passes over to him. Grindelwald is put into his own prison he made called Nurmangard or something. He was in there for the rest of his life.
      So in book 7 of HP, Grindelwald DID know who owned the Elder wand when Voldy goes to see him but in my opinion, his last act of love(?) for Dumbledore was to refuse to tell Voldy who owned it/where it was. Grindelwald told Voldy that he didn't deserve to be the owner of it because he doesn't understand as much as he thinks he does about it so he wasn't worthy of it. That's what makes Voldy mad and kills him.
      Voldy does find out eventually on his own that Dumbledore owned it last and it was buried with him so then he goes to Dumbledore's grave and breaks it open to take it by force. but Grindelwald WAS right, he never mastered the Elder wand because he didn't understand how it worked so he couldn't defeat Harry with it.

    I think Dumbledores' background plays a big part in why he put so much trust in Snape. After all, he was a former death eater, not a lot of people would have greeted him with open arms back in Hogwarts. I like to think that Dumbledore, who had been on the wrong path himself, until a terrible loss changed him, saw a bit of himself in Severus.

    • @qwertyCandy
      @qwertyCandy Před 5 lety +252

      Imho it wasn't one-sided, for multiple reasons.
      1) The film clearly shows that Grindelwald can't fight Dumbledore just like Dumbledore can't move against him, but why if Grindelwald could have just destroyed the blood pact?
      2) If the blood pact was just a failsafe to protect himself against Dumbledore then surely it would have been smartest to keep it locked down and safe somewhere? Instead he keeps it on him at all times.
      2.5) Actually, he even tends to wear it over his heart, hence how the niffler stole it.
      3) Last but not least - he would rather die than to let Voldemort steal from Dumbledore's grave. Despite the fact that Voldemort kind of pushed the same ideas Grindelwald had.
      And a bonus one that's purely my speculation - because Dumbledore never beat Grindelwald in that famous duel, he won because Grindelwald gave up. We know that in a fair duel, the Elder Wand always wins, that's the point. And in all of recorded history, there was only one exception to the rule - the Dumbledore/Grindelwald duel. What if it wasn't an exception, and Dumbledore never managed to beat Grindelwald through magic? What if at some point Dumbledore told Grindelwald to just kill him if he's so sure that what he's doing is right, and Grindelwald just can't do it, so when he's emotionally distraught and pretty much has given up, Dumbledore disarms and puts him to prison?

    It wasn't easy being Dumbledore. He was cursed with one hell of a fate, being instrumental in the rise of two Dark Lords in a single century. When seen in this light, his actions make total sense. And there's a reason he's the only wizard Voldemort ever feared. Dumbledore is death personified, weaponized against evil and made triumphant. He understood it and embodied it fully, not as an ending but rather as a process of renewal. And I mean this in a good way, because death, in its absolute negation of selfhood, is the only instrument capable of striking the supreme and purest note of love.
    Also, I think this was your best HP video yet.

    Dumbledore feeling disdain for muggles at a younger age would not have been so far fetched as it was the abusive act of muggles that made Ariana “ill” and put his father in “jail”. He lost more than half of his family because of that one act by muggles. So his resentment towards them and his youthfully rash behavior would’ve been enough to push him over to that belief. He found easily in Grindewald a kindred spirit that could’ve easily been felt as love. But as much as Dumbledore resented muggles, he was not a torturer and was not willing to go as far as Grindewald would’ve. That is the one true thing about Dumbledore.

    I believe that Gellert is really toxic, self-centred, vain, volatile and... whoever he is. But he also was just a boy expelled from school and abandoned by everyone. He could go a good direction, but Ariana's death brought an end to anything good in Gellert's life. He acted like a coward, he escaped, leaving Albus, but who knows what happened that summer. We don't know how he felt about Albus.
    I can't judge him. Sometimes it's better to leave people you love than hurt them.

    I think Ariana died because of Dumbledore's spell or Grindelwald's spell reflecting off the other due to the power of the Blood Pact, and it reflected into Ariana.
    Edit: New Theory/This one going into depth:
    Ariana's story was that two muggle boys attacked her for using magic, and traumatized her. Her mother decided to lock her up in the basement, keeping her from the eye of general public. One when Ariana's mother came to visit her, Ariana had a magic overload and killed her. Abeforth became her guardian, seeing as Albus was quite reluctant to the idea. He was too busy planning for the rise of "the greater good". Some time after hearing his and Gellert's plans, Abeforth confronted them, breaking into a 3 way duel. In the wiki, it is said that Ariana tried to stop them. Here is my idea of the duel:
    Abeforth/Gellert start it off. If it's Abeforth, it's to stop their plans. If it was Gellert, it's to get rid of the problems in the way. I think at first, Albus took Grindelwald's side, but not shooting to kill- rather to disarm or bring him out of conciousness. Albus then heard Grindelwald attacking his brother with spells of the lethal kind, and decided to distract Gellert by facing him off. This is when Ariana comes in and tries to talk sense into the boys. Gellert becomes tierd of her babbling, and throws her aside with the spell. Albus can stand almost anything, except for someone hurting his family. He, anger in eyes, casts a spell at Grindelwald. One that CAN kill, but has a respectable chance not to (not Avada Kedavra, basically). Grindelwald throws the spell aside with a flick, or the blood pact reflects it, and the spell hits Ariana.
    Ariana was an Obscurial. Her supressing magic had to bring this parasite into her. Parasites, just as viruses or any host-reliant organism doesn't want their host to die. They need to feed off it, home in it, and strive. It'll be difficult for the Obsurus to find another host than Ariana, because Wizards/Witches supressing their magic aren't a very common find. In theory, The Obscurus would try to protect itself from the spell cast by Dumbledore, perhaps having to sacrifice Ariana and her last strengths to keep itself alive. Gellert, recognizing the danger of the thing exploding out of Ariana's body (we know she was buried, so her body had to be somewhat in tact), ran. He knew Dumbledore was no longer an ally of his, and needed to go.

      Plot twist: she may have accidentally killed herself! She went from surpressing her skills to trying to be pro, so if anyone was gonna muck it up, it would be her. Maybe she killed herself, it's kinda similar to the way Luna's mother also accidentally killed herself with magic. If someone who's an adult and practised magic mucked it up, then it would be easy for someone not trained. I highly doubt the pros in that fight, and let's face it all 3 were, did it by accident. I also hate how much it depressed Albus when his sister literally had NO life and was in constant misery. It should have been a big relief that she was no longer suffering and in a better place with her mother. Gridelwald sucks for abandoning Albus just as he was free to do what he wanted to do for the first time, and for not helping him get over the accident, he sounds like a complete sociopath tbh who didn't care for anyone's feelings but his own.

    One of the early drafts of the script for the Half blood prince there was a line where Dumbledore recalled to Harry about a girl that he once liked in his youth. During the table read JK Rowling scribbled out the line and wrote at the side of it Dumbledore is gay and passed the script back to the writer. JK Rowling knew from very early on that Dumbledore was gay.

      yeah. it *may* have been a fact revealed by rowling [who i do not stan anymore] for the representation she didn’t give properly in her books or whatever, but even whilst reading the deathly hallows, and reading about their ‘close relationship’, i just knew that there was something more than friendship. their ‘close friendship’ just had the inclinations of a relationship to me, as a deep observer. and that was before i even knew that rowling revealed that dumbledore was gay. it’s very subtle, in my opinion, and definitely not enough to show that he’s gay but i think rowling did know that dumbledore is gay when she first wrote their relationship. rowling isn’t the best person [not with her transphobia, nope] but she’s a brilliant writer. she has the endings of her stories planned beforehand and it’s clearly depicted throughout the franchise. like her or not, there is no denying that she is extremely talented in writing and is gifted with a clever story making mind so there is a huge possibility she didn’t tell dumbledore’s gay during the series but rather after.

    Dumbledore will *always* (get it?) and forever be one of my favorite characters. One of my favorite scenes between Harry and him takes place at The Mirror of Erised. Fans have a lot of speculation over what Dumbledore saw, but most of us have concluded that he saw himself reunited with his family - however, I’ve always thought there was something a bit more to it. I remember him saying he saw a nice, warm pair of socks. I know Dumbledore’s not a house-elf, but what do socks represent to a certain species (cough, Dobby)? What was Dumbledore’s biggest regret? (Cough, Ariana).

    Honestly I think why some have trouble believing he was gay all along was because generally gay characters are characterized as that guy whose entire identity consists of being gay. It's really turned some people off, especially as sitcoms start adding more and more of this stereotype pushing the normality. Dumbledore was refreshing to me. It wasn't his identity. He was just a guy, just happened to be gay. Anyway, great video! I love these :)

      hatchettwit I agree with your assessment. Plus, as you said when a character is gay there's only one characterization: flamboyant, pink wearing, and all the other stereotypes we see portrayed in the media and yet depending on where you are from. The portrayal can be very different. I enjoyed the fact that Dumbledore was treated as you said a person who happened to be gay. Being gay wasn't his entire identity.

Just because I didn’t see him that way didn’t shock me because we don’t really know a lot about dumbledores past and upbringing apart from the few details we learn in the later HP books. Rowling’s response was brilliant because gay people just look like everyone else and are not and shouldn’t be stereotyped

      I agree completely, but she also displayed him a little bit as a stereotype(maybe to hint at us, before officially announcing it) - he wore colourful robes, he was especially kind to people, well mannered and following etiquette. People shouldn't be bothered with powerful people being gay or bi - Julius Caesar, Alexander The Great, Hadrian, several English kings, several German kings etc.

      I personally think of it THIS way. Gay-the stereotype flamboyant so on types. Homosexual-just like any other guy, except they just so happen to like GUYS sexually, instead of women. And if you just fall for one person and never have the same feelings of any other person, male or female, I don't think it should have a classification like this. I mean is there ANY mention of Dumbledore having these feelings for anyone else? No, so it shouldn't be classed as 'gay'.

  • @christophersanchez7731

    You have good theories and some of them were right
    But Dumbledore before losing Arianna was arrogant. Seeking power and glory, as he wanted before his mother’s death, feeling his family held him back from achieving his full potential
    Meeting Grindelwald was liberation for him, he fell for him as he was not only a kindred spirit but he for a time saved him from feeling trapped by his family
    Grindelwald did influence him, and yes loving him did brought him deeper into a dark path, but also it brought out what was already within Dumbledore, as he wanted power and glory, and saw Grindelwald’s vision for the world for the best of everyone, for the Greater Good. Caring less about his family until it was too late
    Arinana’s death, humbled him, seeing the cost of his dark selfish desires. It was that loss that transformed him into the Dumbledore we know
    One who no longer sought power for himself, or to be a great hero for himself but to groom other meek individuals like Newt and Harry to become great and change the world the right way

    We need a proper Book series on the crimes of Grindelwald and the build up to the battle between Grindelwald and Dumbledore. Personally I like to think that Grindelwald did in his later years show remorse for his actions through seeing what Voldemort had done and realising that he had been young,Naive, Arrogant and blinded by his quest for power. His redemption was not telling Voldemort the location of the Elder wand, not giving the Tyrant what he wanted, protecting his old friend one last time, to be reunited with him later. Grindelwald realised the error of his ways and knew that Voldemort was ultimately Evil and in the end Grindelwald was in fact more human than Voldemort could ever be. Xx

      This bothered me the most. Grindelwald was laughing while Voldemort tortured him, didn’t give anything away to him. Considering how powerful Voldemort was with possession and legitimency. It showed that even without a wand, Voldemort couldn’t just use imperio or possession to get the whereabouts of the wand from him. So regardless of his imprisonment by Dumbledore, he still didn’t give him away. Whatever his feelings may have been for Dumbledore, I agree with Harry’s assessment that Grindelwald didn’t want Voldemort to desecrate his tomb.

    It's weird to think that Grindelwald outlasted Dumbledore

      Also in a weird way it was a mercy killing. He would die sooner rather than later from the curse on his hand, there was nothing anyone-least of all Snape-could do about it, so in a morbid way they were 'killing two birds with one stone'.

    this proves that you can fall in love with anyone, no matter how evil or how good. Love is the most unpredictable.

      Are you frickin crazy? what''s up with these gay things? Grow up for God''s sake. Being emotional about things be it books,movies or reality, that mean much to you isn't gay or anything it's a human characteristic.

    I would like to believe that GG did not invade Britain, not only because he was apprehensive about Dumbledore but he too did not wish to face the man he had once loved as well as the fact that they both had made a blood pact that they would never fight each other🤔🤔
    And I would say that Voldemort died a pathetic death, will be hated by everyone who knows him but in case of GG, he died protecting his best frd and his love, and there will always be two people (Dumbledore and Harry) who would remember him as a better man!!

      I mean they kind of did. You could tell it was a romantic relationship, at least on Dumbledores end from what we saw in the new movie.

      Wessidious, ok, Albus was 'in love' with Gridewald but the love may not have been returned. We don't know the whole story, which is one reason I'm waiting for the new movie.
