My Sole Harry Potter / DH Criticism (Spoilerish)
It would have been nice to see Harry forced to suck it up and apologize, to Snape's face, for his misjudgment. Throughout the series, Harry's always right and those who don't believe him are always wrong. The one aspect that Harry was always totally wrong on, and it's dealt with by a name tribute in the epilog? feh.

1. I think Snape knew, though, from his 'death scene'
Can't WAIT to see Alan Rickman rolling around with the snake and having such a dramatic end!!!

2. Well, He Would Know
That Harry would realize what a dick he'd been.

Casting Rickman as Snape was sheer brilliance on someone's part. How many actors could make us care about such a greaser?

4. Harry lived in a "Black & White" world...
One thing constant throughout Deathly Hollows is that people are more complicated than Harry ever imagined. From Dudley's attempt at a good-bye to Dumbledore's dark family secrets to Narcissa Malfoy's redemptive act, Harry (should have) learned that most of his judgements about people have been wrong all along.

3. i dont. snape was not nice to harry, and harry was not supposed to know that snape was good.
if anything, harry owed an apology to dumbledore for not trusting him.

5. Nonetheless
Snape acted in Harry's best interests on more than one occasion.

7. I thought Snape called it
when he accused Dumbledore of fattening Harry like a pig for slaughter. :shrug:
