i been waiting for thissssss <3
Random shit:
* The time between Goblet of Fire and Order of the Phoenix being published was the longest of the series.
*In the books, Kreacher plays a significant hand in the events that lead to Harry going to the Department of Mysteries.
* There's a lot of stuff about Snape in this book that the movie left out. There's only a blink-and-you'll-miss-it acknowledgment that he's in the Order in the movie, whereas in the book it's clear that he's a lot more active. In the scene where you see young!James bullying young!Snape, Lily shows up to yell at James to stop, and Snape calls her a mudblood. This chapter is titled Snape's Worst Memory.
* It's never brought up in the movie, but when Harry told Snape that "he's got Padfoot", Snape did alert the Order, which is why they turned up to rescue everyone.
* Peeves the Poltergeist is a minor character in the books who doesn't really have any plot relevance, and thus doesn't appear in the movies. However, in the books he's constantly being a pain to everyone. When the Weasley twins leave, they tell Peeves to "give her hell". Peeves very happily obliges and causes absolute havoc. None of the professors help Umbridge, and it's mentioned that at one point McGonagall passes by Peeves trying to unscrew a chandelier, and she quietly tells him it unscrews the other way.
* Easy to miss, but the subtitles pointed out that the person speaking the prophecy about Harry and Voldemort was Professor Trelawney. In the third book, Harry tells Dumbledore about Trelawney prophesying that "the servant will break free and set out to rejoin his master", and how it came true with Peter Pettigrew. Dumbledore remarks that it's the second prophecy she's made that actually came true. She made the prophecy while being interviewed for the position of Divination professor, and Dumbledore hired her in order to protect her.
* Cho isn't the one to rat out Dumbledore's army in the book; instead it's a friend of hers, and veritaserum wasn't involved. Switching it to Cho was a really good choice, her friend has no relevance in the stories beyond this event, and the outcome (squashing the potential budding romance) is the same.
* In the book, when Mr. Weasley is injured, Harry and the Weasleys visit him at the wizard hospital. While there, Harry briefly encounters Lockhart, who still hasn't regained his memories but is happily autographing things. He also accidentally sees Neville visiting his parents, who are alive but nearly catatonic. They don't recognize him.
* You have no idea how accurate you were when you asked whether or not Neville could be the chosen one if Voldemort tried to kill him instead. It's 100% true.! The prophecy in the book is longer, and could have applied to either Harry OR Neville. Voldemort decided Harry was the bigger threat, and so went after the Potters himself, while a group of his Death Eaters, including Bellatrix, went after the Longbottoms.
* The chapter where Dumbledore and Voldemort fight is titled The Only One He Ever Feared.
The biggest let downs of this movie are Hermione and Ron being prefects, and the lack of "Weasley is our King."
not being*
Shaun in the last movie was like "if the dark arts teacher is evil in the next movie (shakes head in disapproval)"
me thinking about how in the next movie Umbridge shows up "yeah you still haven't meant the most evil teacher/character"
The moment the aurors show up to fight the death eaters gives me goosebumps everytime. The music and constrast of white on black is god tier. I prefer it to the events of the books even though its short lived. Seeing lupin, tonks, mad eye, shacklebolt & sirius squad up is so sick and I wish they let that fight breathe a bit more before Sirius's demise. Would be cool to see a little more Lupin and Tonks cuz they get shafted alot in the movies.
Also the fight with Dumbledore and Voldemort is still to this day the greatest wizard battle on screen. Also during this fight they go through all the elements (Fire, Water, Air & Earth). You can even hear Voldemort say "Earth" after Dumbledore turns the shards of glass to sand.
Omg one of the cast was listed as 'Slightly Creepy Boy' lol I have never noticed that hahaha.
Snape still did not teach Harry to shield his mind by the way.. Harry still can't keep Voldemort out if he should want in but he is weary of doing so now because Voldemort can't process love, which Harry has in spades with his friends and found family inside of his memories.
It would be really cool if you were to watch the deleted scenes after you all complete the series. I am just remembering how many really good scenes they cut.
Also, Sweeney Todd yes please!!!!
You should watch men in black 2 and home alone
Percy Weasley is a shitheel. Went from a snobby head boy to a ministry bootlicker that betrayed even his own family and Arthur was disappointed in him
He could never be Alan but I can totally see Tom Hiddleston playing a good Snape
One of my biggest gripes with this movie is how they handled Cho. In the book there's more focus on how challenging it is for her and Harry to date considering he was with her ex-boyfriend when he was murdered which was pretty interesting, if depressing. But the change I like the least is the reasoning for her and Harry breaking up. In the book it was actually a friend of hers who squealed on Dumbledore's Army and she did it willingly, so when Cho defended such a selfish act, her and Harry had a big fight and that's why they broke up. In the movie she was given the truth potion so it's not her fault at all yet Harry still ices her out. You could make the argument that he didn't know she was given the potion at first, based on how he reacts when Snape mentions it but there's absolutely no follow up, we don't even see her again this movie. It's two movies worth of romance building without a proper payoff.
they did harry and ginny so dirty in the movies, they are the best in the books
Not shown in the movies but Professor McGonagall standing up for Professor Trelawney when she's fired is actually really sweet considering she hates the subject of Divination and doesn't even get along that well with her usually.
Eric touched on it on the end but yeah, the reason Dumbledore kept personal distance from Harry throughout this one is because he was scared that their proximity would lead to Voldemort possessing Harry and either trying to kill Dumbledore through Harry or make Dumbledore sacrifice Harry. The moment in the office right after the snake attack where they did actually lock eyes confirmed Dumbledore's fears, that little bit of Voldemort peaked out and there's another moment the movie cuts out after Dumbledore's Army is caught where they lock eyes again and Harry is once again filled with a desire to hurt Dumbledore. I definitely get the frustration with Dumbledore but I also get his POV too, it's just an awful situation all around sadly.
One big thing left out was the extent of the Department of Mysteries. It has many more rooms where employees sworn to secrecy (Unspeakables) studied the Mysteries of the Universe for centuries. The entrance had 12 doors which implies 12 Mysteries we don't know all of. The main focus was of course the Room of Prophecy which stores recordings of all prophecies. The other was the Room of Death which has a one-way portal to the afterlife (The Arch/Veil), and no option of becoming a ghost. However the book also showed the Brain Room where Thought was studied in the form of hostile brains in jars (Thought was studied because Muggles seem to be more advanced), the Space Room which was basically a giant low-gravity model of the solar system, and also the Time Room (full of clocks and was also the source of Time-Turners that were all smashed in the battle). Fun fact, the Department learned the dangers of Time Travel the hard way. Finally, there was a door which couldn't be unlocked by anything, said to be the Room of Love studying the most powerful force in existence.
Also I would have loved if they showed St. Mungo’s as well as Neville’s parents. They say they suffered a fate worse than death in this movie, but didn’t actually explain that they were tortured out of their minds and now have to live in a wizard mental hospital. Such a sad storyline :(
Who was the girl who was changing her hair color and face at the beginning
Nymphadora Tonks, she was born with the power of Metamorphmagus. She is first cousins with Draco, niece of Bellatrix, and cousin-once-removed with Sirius.
I'm a Harmony (Harry/Hermione) fan. People always argue that they're more like brother and sister and yes Boom, of course guys and girls can just be friends, but you could say the exact same thing about Ron and Hermione; that's honestly how they felt to me with their petty bickering. The movies also don't do their relationship any favors by including moments where Ron is a massive dick towards Hermione, amongst other things that come in the next three.
I'm not a fan of any of the canon Harry Potter ships and frankly I think Rowling sucked at writing romance.
The Minister of Magic truly turned into Joe Biden this movie
1:48:00 - I had forgotten until thinking on this moment from the books, but Umbrigde had ticked off all the teachers to the point where they would not help her with the twins and their magical tricks and treats and charms. Like, the books go into how for weeks before their big show, they were giving out their concoctions to everyone and anyone to get out of trouble or to cause trouble. Then did the huge explosive show and made a swamp in one of the corridors? The teachers could have helped but did not.
To be honest. It bugs me when Sirius says harry is so much like James when we see that James was a piece of shit bully
Yeah but it made sense that Sirius would think of James w rose-colored glasses being his best buddy and all.
Professor Trelawney is a descendant of Cassandra (the Greek seer cursed to have no one believe her visions).
Also something that isn’t mentioned in this movie is that it’s Umbridge who sent the dementors to Harry in Little Whinging. The dementors work for the ministry of magic, it was her who sent them to attack Harry.
It's such a stupid omission too, it's literally like two lines that she says in the book right when she's about to use the Cruciatus Curse on Harry, they could have easily included that in the movie.
"Brits use silly units" - Ik he's doing it on purpose at this point, but the US is literally one of the only places in the world to use F instead of C. Idk what this guy's fucking problem is
Get a sense of humor. You've placed way too much self-importance on the geography of your birth.
Shit got real in this book. I think none of them made it out of the ministry in one piece. Hermione almost got bisected, Ron... made out with a brain or something.
so fun fact the reason harry scream was actually silenced pls fact check me on this but i think he had lost aunt or grandma and that was a raw scream that really made emma waston and other ladies on set cry somebody fact check me on who he lost but thats the reason.
sorry for typos im tired lol
The other schools are probably still coed. Something that none of the fans seem to acknowledge when it comes to the supposed gender exclusivity of the schools in the movies is that the students from those schools that showed up at Hogwarts were just the top students of their respective schools, not the complete student body. Sounds to me like the boys at Beauxbatons and the girls at Durmstrang were just slacking during movie four. Also, do you know how many boys from Beauxbatons and girls from Durmstrang were at Hogwarts in the books? Two. One from each school. Do you know what their names were? No? Well neither does the fandom because they were unnamed background characters. Do you know what their significance in the story is? The boy puts his name in the Goblet, steals Harry’s date at the ball and then appears in Hogsmeade and is never seen again. The girl stands in the great hall next to a male student…..and that’s it. She’s gone after that. The fandom acts like there were a huge mix of boys and girls at this event and that they were somehow important. They were cut out of the movies because they aren’t important and there was only one of each. They’re probably still attending the schools but just weren’t part of the entourage to go to Hogwarts. They should’ve studied harder.
SWEENEY TOOOOOOOOOOOOOOODDDDDDD, BOOOOOOOOYAAAAAAAAAHH!!!!!!
PLEASE continue to point out the differences between the movies and the books! I haven't read the books since I was a child, so I'm relearning a bunch of stuff! :D
To make it simpler: Harry was bugged the entire time, and no one knew if Voldy was listening in at any given moment, so to be safe, they excluded Harry from anything that could give away their plans. Even Harry's memories weren't safe, so they HAD to limit what he was exposed to. Now, Harry didn't know he was bugged, and Dumbledor NOT TELLING HIM was a shitty decision, but I get why as well. Harry had to act as normal as possible, otherwise if he was avoiding certain people/places, that's ALSO a clue for Voldy to use. It was just a shitty situation, all the way around :/
voldy lol, i love it
God, the whole stretch in the ministry was the peak of this series and your reactions throughout it all were so great. Can't wait for the last three movies.
Since it’s never explained, here’s the rundown on what the other disowned Black family members on that tree did to earn such a fate. Iola married a muggle, Andromeda married a Muggle born wizard, Cedrella married a “blood traitor”(pure blooded witch/wizard who isn’t a blood supremacist), Phineas supported muggle rights(he may sound familiar to Bree and that’s because his father, also named Phineas, is the headmaster in Hogwarts Legacy), Marius was a squib(muggle born from magic parents, making his situation the equivalent of coming out as LGBTQ+ and getting kicked out by conservative parents), Sirius had multiple reasons for his disownment, him running away was just the last straw, being sorted into Gryffindor and being a blood traitor being the other two and Alphard was disowned posthumously for leaving Sirius a bunch of money in his will despite the fact that Sirius had already been disowned by that point and he had time to change it but chose to financially support his young nephew instead. There was also Eduardus Limette Black who was disowned for unknown reasons. On top of all these, there’s probably a bunch of Blacks who were able to help muggles or support disowned members anonymously and so weren’t caught and disowned and any children of disowned members who are born after disownment are not allowed a place on the tree.
umbridge getting dragged never fails to satisfy
I can finally tell you that patronus is actually a Thestral. One of those Skeleton horse things that you can only see if you’ve seen death.
My Patronus I meant, strangely for some reason I can’t edit my comment
Oh I would love for you guys to do Sweeney Todd!
I was definitely harryXhermoine shipper 💯 the chemistry was there idc
I imagine boom is a pro with a Balisong 🫡
The Ministry cannot track who cast a spell. they can only Track where the spell was cast. So they cannot find out that Harry used Crucio. Him using the Patronus was only known because Harry is the only wizard living in that area
the collective screaming when he says HES BACK- LIKE NO SHIT DUMBASS OMFG
Sorry to double reply but them dropping any aspects of utilizing the House of Black is one of my biggest issues with the pacing of this movie because we get to experience some of Sirius' home life.
Sirius' mom, Walburga, was in that painting that Kreacher was cleaning early on in the movie, and she is VASTLY racist. From the moment Harry gets to Grimmauld Place, Walburga is ranting about how much she hates Sirius and how he's a waste of space, the Weasleys and Hermione specifically. Kreacher is the only one in the house that can shut her up. Everyone tried cleaning the house to make it more liveable, and there'd be a bunch of random, dangerous shit everywhere. If they cleaned a room successfully, they'd come back, and it'd be dirty all over again.
Also, on the family tree wall, if yall remember seeing the name Andromeda, she's Narcissa's [Draco's mom] and Bellatrix's older sister, and they're all 1st maternal/3rd paternal cousins to Sirius. The entire House of Black is named after constellations or stars, as well.
I LOVE that you brought this up. The House of Black is so important and that, along with the Marauders' and their whole storyline and a couple other things, are what I wish they would've touched on more in the movies! It really shows just how different Sirius is from the get go and against all those racist ideologies.
commenting on the Fudge banner in the ministry "Damn alright Churchill, chill the fck out".....
Didn't you yanks feel the need to carve your leaders faces in a whole ass mountain instead of just a banner?
Don't like Churchill, but Boom has a British hate-boner for some reason. Idk what his fucking problem is, every chance he gets he says the kind of things people look down on Americans for
Your anger over it is the point. He’s trolling you guys and you’re falling for it. He doesn’t actually hate you guys. What he’s doing to you is what you guys casually do to the French on a daily basis. It’s all in good fun. If he actually hated you, he wouldn’t be watching Harry Potter or Heartstopper.
He literally stated the irony of why I make the jokes. Americans get made fun of for this stuff all the time, but you point out other countries do it and people take it personally lol. Also why would I say Mount Rushmore when it's taking place in the UK? And if I did say Mount Rushmore, it probably would have been met with "silly yanks, don't they know others exist besides them?"
One being bad doesn’t make the other better
both are bad, dude
This is never touched on in the movies, so I feel totally fine telling you this, but Bellatrix Lestrange actually used the Cruciatus Curse on Frank and Alice Longbottom so relentlessly that she drove them to the point of madness and they have to remain at St. Mungo's for round the clock care, which is why Neville has lived with his grandmother and is also why in GoF when fake Moody demonstrated the Unforgivables, he reacted the way he did. And if you remember, Igor Karkaroff outed Barty Crouch Jr. as being the one who led to their torture and him being the one to demonstrate the curse to Neville is just another layer of how dark and twisted the Death Eaters are.
As for Sirius' death, it's the worst for me. It has been since I first read the books. Cedric got me, don't get me wrong, and it hit hard because despite him being 17, he was still a damn kid and that was the start of my trauma LMAO. But Sirius hit different. Not only because he was Harry's godfather, but because Harry had never known stability and what it was like to have someone in his corner rooting for him and not treating him like he couldn't handle things when he definitely could. Yes, he had the Weasleys and they loved him dearly, but Sirius and Harry's relationship is different. They're connected through James and Lily, James especially, and they hold onto that. It's tragically beautiful and heartbreaking.
And as a life long fan of HP, books and movies, I don't mind when you mention how much is left out because they did, but they also had to. There is an incredible amount of detail and lore and world-building and it would be impossible for them to fit everything in. With that being said, I LOVE the movies and I think they did one hell of a job portraying the characters and their development and the overall story. I seen every single movie in the theatres growing up and to see the world I loved so much come to life was unforgettable.
Keep watching and enjoying because I live for these. Truly.
In regards to the conversation at the end in regards to harry and voldemort being linked and the school year it seems that the time when things were happening might help give a slightly better picture. The attack on Arthur Weasley was just before Christmas so not too long into the school year with Harry learning the Occulmency from that point on for a good few months, also to note his own interest in the department on mystery stuff didnt help as he wanting to know made him more susceptible. The end of the movie taking place around May/June. There was a considerably longer amount of time were they were trying to stop it then there was doing nothing and not telling him anything, with it only being once it was likely that Voldy knew that they started to be proactive
This is why the TV series should hopefully be really good. The showcase of time of the school year should be a lot easier with having the longer runtime and some characters will likely be a better of with them being able to give them more depth.
0:31:25 WWI vets before the onset of WWII
1:13:05 Kind of funny knowing who she would later voice in Arcane. because now I'm imagining an angry redhead with giant metal fists yelling, "THAT'S MY CUPCAKE!"
im loving yalls reactions to this i really hope you guys do the fantastic beasts movies
Should definitely watch youtube videos that do full breakdowns of differences between movies and books
Happy Birthday Boom!
Also I cannot wait for the next three movies. Lots of shit bout to go down yall
So, since last week, I've checked a list of everything the movies have skipped or changed from the books for every single movie, and it turns out that Fred and George are apparently much more present in the books and really help Harry out during all the school years prior to this one, as well as in this book too. Ron and Hermione's personalities have also been switched (apparently Ron is supposed to be the brave, confident one and Hermione is supposed to be the one scared most of the times), and during the training part in the Room of Requirement, Ron actually defeats Hermione 3 times in a row and boasts about it.
It's not explained in the movie, but it was explained in the PS2 game (which is the only HP game I played prior to Hogwart's Legacy) and the book, the place in which Sirius dies is the Room of Death. The strange doorway is actually a passageway between the world of the living and the world of the dead, but once someone crosses it, they can't come back. It was explained in the book, to say that Sirius was dead (because Bellatrix hits him with a spell that knocks him through the veil), but in the movie they accentuated it by having her use the killing curse.
We finally meet one of my favorite characters, Luna. She really is a vibe, I love the energy she has about everything and how she doesn't care what others think, she just does and say whatever she wants.
Forgot to mention this in the last movie, but the winnings of the tri wizard tournament that he gets he gives it to the Weasley Twins so then they make their own business to sell pranks (which they invent themselves) and the like they were experimenting on the students and after the fireworks scene they leave to start that business
Bellatrix is not the cousin actually Draco mom and her are sisters so yes she’s very close to Malfoys 😂😂😂 my goodness y’all definitely have a lot learn about the Potter movies hell yall got a lot to about characters in movies as well
Bellatrix and Narcissa Malfoy are sisters, and are descendants from Andromeda Black. She is Sirius’ first cousin.
She literally is the cousin.
but Bellatrix and Sirius are cousins; her, Narcissa and Andromeda's mother is Sirius' aunt
They literality called her Sirius' cousin in the move twice
if you couldn't tell, Umbridge is a Slytherin lol
The problem with the house elves is that they liked being slaves.
I have seen many reactors watch Harry Potter movies over the past few years, and these reactions are my favorite by far. You guys are also the first reactors that have finally convinced myself to stop being lazy and read all of the books, so thanks lol.
Best girl Bellatrix has arrived lol 😂😉
You guys should react to bridge to terabithia
Alright, Bree is a fake fan, she called the Thestrals, Nargals
Why does the ministry like sound like the R)congress project 25 plans lmao
One of the more important things they cut from this movie is umbridge having some death eaters attack McGonagall and she manages to fight them off while taking 4 stunning spells to the chest. Apparently according to lore you need 7 stunning spells to directly hit to knock out a dragon
I'm not really sure how that's "important" but to clarify, it wasn't Death Eaters. They were Aurors there to arrest Hagrid, one of which being Dawlish who rather than being a confirmed Death Eater is just implied to be blindly loyal to the Ministry.
Its been a long time since I read the books.
OMG Bridge to Terabithia reaction please
There are things that the movies don't explain like the books because they aren't exactly important and there's only so much you can cram into a few hours. For example nymphadora tonks is a metamorph magus. A witch who is born able to change her appearance at will without the need for a polyjuice potion
And she's a Hufflepuff! Such a badass.
This movie is my favorite movie of all of them and it’s crazy part is the books that the movie based of it, is boring as hell and I couldn’t understand y until my mom told me that they talk a lot
I just had to pause the video because I am CRYING laughing at "Noooooo! She's understatedly hot!" 🤣
SIRUS NOOOOO 🥺🥺 still hurts sm I love this movie definitely up there for one of my faves
Filtch 100% sucks its not even ambigious lmao, but its not really suprising in the books that he would side with Umbridge, he's a miserable fuck who hates the students and lives to see them punished because he hates their shenanigans so much lol
I'm pretty sure his hatred of the students is all based on jealousy because they're learning magic and he can't because he's a squib.
The lady who played umbridge is brilliant. As is anybody who can play a character so well that ppeople despise the real person.Its just my opinion that sometimes she looks like will Ferrell in drag
Sean is 100% right about there never being anything more than platonic energy between Harry and Hermionie, and thats something that should be better appreciated
That's always been the vibe I got from them too in both books and movies.
Yesss! They're like brother and sister to me. The siblings they never had growing up. People always act like romantic relationships are the only important ones, and they are important, but having a best friend, is a different kind of love, but still as important. I always loved their dynamic
Now that you've mentioned it, please watch bridge of terabithia!
Every scene with Umbridge is absolute pain.. I'm loving these reactions though lol
Please watch the deleted scenes for deathly hallows part 1, they're soo good
MY FAVORITE FILM IN THE SERIES
I so needed this in my life today. My mom and baby got me sick with the flu/cold, and I'm staying at home wrapped up in a burrito blanket. Thank you so much for this!
TODAY IS ALSO MY BIRTHDAY AND BOOM SHARES IT WITH ME!?!?!?!?!?!??! THIS IS THE BEST BIRTHDAY GIFT I HAVE EVER RECIVED
It's about that time, Billy!!!!
Ooh, we getting spicy with this one. Also fun fact, Harry's scream when Sirius died was so raw and visceral that the cast kinda freaked but about it, and I believe that's why they made it silent. Apparently Daniel Radcliffe had lost an actual family member recently when the scene was shot.
I’m loving these reactions
Loving it!
This is my third favorite of the movies. I've been reading the books recently. Loving the reactions.
The day of the week
