The U.S. war against terrorism has achieved a milestone, the most important milestone with the controversial death of 9/11 mastermind Osama bin Laden. Over the years his death was a suspense as several times rumor spread that Laden has been killed in the mountains and caves of Afghanistan. Parallel to it, connection of Harry Potter series with Laden is also much talked about.
It is learned from reliable websites that the first movie of the Harry Potter series, Sorcerer’s Stone, released in November 2001, just months after 9/11, had similarities with Laden and his terror network. The movie brings to light the ongoing conflict between the little wizard and the evil Voldemort who is bent on killing him.
Earlier known as “He Who Must Not Be Named,” Voldermort was completely an unknown entity. He was much like Al Qaeda leader Osama bin Laden that has been seen in the last volume of the Potter series in a seismic one-on-one combat.
The final series of the movie, Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part 2, will be on multiplexes this July and it is surly going to profit off the death of Laden. The movie contains complete epic of evil villain and his network of loyal terrorists. Moreover, the Voldemort dies on May 2 in the movie, and Laden's death news was confirmed on May 1st. So, basically it seems a similar story.
The big question - Will moviegoers recognize the similarity of the plot with bin Laden?
Well, one thing to take note here that the book series of "Harry Potter" predates the 9/11 events of 2001.
