Do you think Snape's good or bad?
GOOD

I'm still waiting for "Harry Potter and the Avian Flu Outbreak," with special guest author Frank Lee.

if snape ISN'T good it'll be because she's changed the story drastically since book 6 was released. and seeing as she's been planning this and building up to it for years and years, it's unlikely.

yeah good point vovat. he said "severus, please..." not "severus, don't.." or whatever. he was probably saying "please carry on with it" just as he pleaded with harry to keep passing the poison to him.
another thing. we know that voldemort believes snape is on his side, and dumbledore believes he is on his. snape said in chapter 2, "how do you think i could fool the dark lord, the most powerful wizard on the planet?"
remember book 5 i think, dumbledore got snape to teach harry occlumency? from this we know snape is a master of it, better than dumbledore, otherwise dumbledore would have taught harry himself. and seeing as dumbledore is the only wizard voldemort feared i'm gonna say snape could easily block voldemort's attempt at legilimency. so maybe he's using it on dumbledore to hide the fact he's really on the voldemort's side? dumbledore is not stupid, we know this. we also know that HE knows snape is a master of occlumency. he knows very well that he could be tricked with it, so obviously there is something huge and binding between them that we don't about, and this is the reason he trusts snape, not just because snape said he was good.

I'll admit that I initially thought Snape might really be evil, but I was soon convinced otherwise. I agree with Steve's reasoning. Besides, as someone else pointed out, Dumbledore wouldn't plead with Snape not to kill him. After all, he thinks death is "the next great adventure."
I haven't seen the new movie yet. I hope to do so sometime this week.

misleadtheworld, zub, glad we agree.
he is BLATANTLY good. we all know he's a bit of a dubious character, obviously has delved into the black arts in his past... and you'd think by what he does at the end he'd definitely be on the bad side.
but dumbledore ain't a fool. i'm pretty sure dumbledore knew this was going to happen and even asked snape to do it, for the greater good.
some evidence...
hagrid overhearing snape and dumbledore argueing and snape saying something about him not wanting to carry through with it. of course, you could see this as snape's unwillingless to carry on as a double agent in general and thus paint him in bad light. but i reckon dumbledore is telling him he's going to have to kill him.
remember when harry had to force dumbledore to drink that stuff in the cave? the book described harry as hating himself, and repulsed by his actions.... almost exactly the same way snape's expression was described when he was about the kill dumbledore (ie. filled with hate, revulsion). he didn't hate dumbledore... he hated what he had to do.
when snape was making his unbreakable vow... he twitched before he made it. obviously a sign he wasn't happy about it.
the fact he ran off with the malfoys at the end. why was he only blocking harry's curses? why didn't he grab him and take him to voldemort? i can't remember exactly, but i think snape and the malfoys weren't even running with they death eaters, they were running away from them too. they're gonna go into hiding, snape will convince them to turn to the right side like dumbledore was trying to do.
there is obviously a lot more back story to snape and why dumbledore trusts him so much, and this will undoubtedly come out in the last book.
before dumbledore's death he managed to tell harry everything he needed to know so he could continue the battle on his own. was dumbledore even important anymore? he was getting old and weak, he knew this, and if snape killing him meant snape still had the trust of lord voldemort, it was probably for the best. snape's position could help the order a lot more than dumbledore now could.
blah blah..
oh, and llama, we'll see in 2007 when the last book comes out! learn to love, and you'll see snape for what he is. a wanker, but not an evil wanker.
