Minerva McGonagall/Maggie Smith: "Hogwarts is threatened! Man the boundaries. Protect us!"

Welcome to the Minerva McGonagall/Maggie Smith thread!



Madam Professor Minerva McGonagall (b. 4 October,[1] 1935[2]) was a witch and Animagus who attended Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry from 1947 to 1954 and was sorted into Gryffindor House. After her education, she worked for two years at the Ministry of Magic and later returned to Hogwarts, where she became Head of Gryffindor House, Transfiguration professor and concurrently, at differing times, Deputy Headmistress and Headmistress of Hogwarts.

McGonagall was also a member of the First and Second Order of the Phoenix. In 1995, she opposed Dolores Umbridge, the High Inquisitor of Hogwarts. She also protected the students from Alecto and Amycus Carrow from 1997 until 1998, and as part of this resistance movement, fought in several battles of both wars, including the Battle of the Astronomy Tower and the Battle of Hogwarts (where she led the resistance against Lord Voldemort).

She survived the Second Wizarding War and continued her job as Headmistress for at least ten years, and retired sometime in the 2000s or 2010s.

Thanks about the title. I wanted to use an older quote but I think that DH movie line will suffice for now.

I wish we could've seen her in action more! But I am glad with the awesome DH2 scenes we got.

Overall I wish there were more fights in the movie just as it was in the book.

Here's a better close-up of the BTS.

Well someone does die in the special so maybe she's just staying tight lipped to not give that away. Hopefully its not Violet. I've been staying away from spoilers.

3 more days!
