Even though J.K. Rowling has become something of a pariah after her hurtful comments towards the trans community, the Harry Potter books are something that no one can take away from her. She may not be a good person, but her literary talent is undeniable and will surely stand the test of time for decades to come.

However, not every story in Harry Potter has been crafted to perfection, and over the years, fans have found a number of ways to improve the overall story.

Here are the 7 greatest fan predictions that are better than canon:

Don't get us wrong - the Harry Potter saga ended on a fittingly happy note, and no one in their right mind would blame Rowling for not sticking to the landing. But if the author had made the final books in the series a little darker, fans would have loved them even more.

Take the idea of Ron dying, for example. It may sound depressing at first, but if implemented, it could have made the story feel richer and more complex, as the traditional happy ending has long since begun to bother readers.

Sadly, none of these great ideas turned out to be true, but at least we can still hope to see them implemented in the upcoming HBO Harry Potter reboot!
