The seventh and last installment of boy wizard Harry Potter and his antics at Hogwarts, sinisterly titled Harry Potter and the Deathly Gallows...

Whoopsie!  (snicker)

Brilliant! It actually makes more sense than the REAL title!

There was some discussion on my LJ a while back of what the title means. The best guess that I saw was that it alludes to the Hallows of Britain, so the "deathly hallows" may be the Horcruxes or perhaps a kind of anti-Horcrux.

"Deathly Hallows" has all the semantic content of "Smurf," "Marklar," or "Malkovitch."

Actually I'd kind like to see "Harry Potter and the Great Gringots Caper" as Our Heroes get together with the Ghost of Dumbledore and clean out the joint... :)
