DUMBLEDORE IS EPIC! First Time Watching *Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix (2007)* Reaction

[@TheDorkSideTV]

Dumbledore may be the true pimp of pimps! This is my favorite movie so far in this marathon so the next movies have big shoes to fill! Thanks for watching with me as always 🙏❤️

[@ronweber1402]

Apparently in the books Dumbledore basically pimp slapped Tom and it wasn't nearly as even a fight as the movie depicts.

[@ADowneyBear9]

Dumbledore can only aspire to be as much of a pimp as Gandalf, but he's definitely up there.

[@ankitsaxena2023]

🥸 In Movie version they show Dumbledore very less powerful. Here is the book version in short. Please read it “But Master - he is here - he is below -” Voldemort paid no attention. AVADA KEDAVRA!” Harry had not even opened his mouth to resist. His mind was blank, his wand pointing uselessly at the floor. But the headless golden statue of the wizard in the fountain had sprung alive, leaping from its plinth, and landed on the floor with a crash between Harry and Voldemort. The spell merely glanced off its chest as the statue flung out its arms, protecting Harry. “What - ?” said Voldemort, staring around. And then he breathed, “Dumbledore!” Voldemort raised his wand and sent another jet of green light at Dumbledore, who turned and was gone in a whirling of his cloak; next second he had reappeared behind Voldemort and waved his wand toward the remnants of the fountain; the other statues sprang to life too. The statue of the witch ran at Bellatrix, who screamed and sent spells streaming uselessly off its chest, before it dived at her, pin- ning her to the floor. Meanwhile, the goblin and the house-elf scuttled toward the fireplaces set along the wall, and the one-armed centaur galloped at Voldemort, who vanished and reappeared beside the pool. The headless statue thrust Harry backward, away from the fight, as Dumbledore advanced on Voldemort and the golden centaur can- tered around them both. “You do not seek to kill me, Dumbledore?” called Voldemort, his scarlet eyes narrowed over the top of the shield. “Above such brutality, are you?” “We both know that there are other ways of destroying a man, Tom,” Dumbledore said calmly, continuing to walk toward Volde- mort as though he had not a fear in the world, as though nothing had happened to interrupt his stroll up the hall. “Merely taking your life would not satisfy me, I admit -” “There is nothing worse than death, Dumbledore!” snarled Voldemort. “You are quite wrong,” “Indeed, your failure to un- derstand that there are things much worse than death has always been your greatest weakness -” Dumbledore never failed down in book version. Voldemort was nervous entirely while face Dumbledore. Voldemort go inside Harry coz he failed to face Dumbledore.

@@ADowneyBear9 this has yet to be seen by my own eyes but I have heard great legend of Gandalf

[@ADowneyBear9]

@@TheDorkSideTV I’m honestly jealous that you’ll get to experience the trilogy for the first time when you decide to watch it. One of those series that will blow every expectation out of the water.

[@kkspencer8376]

Neville's parents weren't killed. Bellatrix and Barty Crouch Jr used the Cruciatis curse on them, to torture them for information. They never gave in. Their minds were broken by the torture, so a fate worse than death. They barely recognize Neville. He was raised by his Gran, but often went to St Mungo's Hospital for Wizards to see his parents. It really was a fate worse than death for the Longbottom family.

[@ADowneyBear9]

One of the greatest scenes from the books was cut from this movie and that was Neville visiting his Parents at St Mungos over christmas at the same time that Arthur Weasley is there. Neville's parents don't recognize him, but when he goes to leave his mom gives him a candy wrapper like she does every time she see's him. His Grandmother tells him to throw it away, but he always keeps them. A fate worse than death for sure.

[@MissWonder4U]

@@Ispeakastronomy7 I would blame the movies actually, because if you haven't read the books it's very easy to get confused with just this pieces of dialogue, aswell with the fact that they never show Neville's parents The movies are a very good portayal of the books but it could've been better i think

[@ADowneyBear9]

There’s a line too where after Neville is given the candy wrapper, he looks over at Ginny and the trio defensively in case they were to laugh, but Harry just thinks that he’d never seen anything less funny in his life. That scene will forever live rent free in my head.

[@TheDorkSideTV]

@@Ispeakastronomy7 they don’t explain what happens to his parents though. So I had nothing to gage what had happened. Just saying they suffered a fate worse than death doesn’t actually explain they are now insane due to torture. They may as well be dead if we aren’t going to get more info about them 🤷‍♂️

[@Square-ow7oq]

I liked it even better in the books. When the order is battling the deatheaters, he just comes out of nowhere, snatching them left and right, and they are terrified of him. 😂 and Tom is even more obviously afraid of him than in the movie. So good.

[@kjlucky6501]

That line is so good lol

[@sleepy_pommie]

A huge part of Snape’s memory they left out is that Sirius tried to prank him by telling where to find Lupin when he was changed into a werewolf. He was even laughing at the possibility that Snape would be killed. James heard of it and saved Snape before he could be attacked.

[@ronweber1402]

Ya Snape and James hated each other and did shitty things to each other but James did have his limits. Sirius on the other hand, because of the way he grew up, was much more prone to violence.

[@phousefilms]

It also serves to cover(up) why Snape saved Harry in "Philosophers Stone".

[@YenellyT]

I don't like that the movies didn't touch on why james didn't like snape, and how it sometimes went both ways, but what sirius did was pretty messed up. @@ronweber1402

[@voidackerman2082]

“I need more from Sirius Black, I love him!” Who’s gonna tell him😭

[@needyverse]

James’ behaviour in school actually really disturbed Harry in the books. After finding out James was essentially Snape's bully, Harry struggled with the fact he had been thinking of his father as a hero for so long (due to other people’s impressions/stories) plus everyone saying he reminded them of James - but after seeing Snape's memories, Harry also related more to Snape after growing up neglected and bullied by his aunt, uncle and cousin.

[@turtleg7127]

Tbf tho… Snape willingly became a death eater to begin with… then he delivered the prophecy to voldermort which lead to the potters and longbottoms demise… then bullied children. Idk how Harry could even try and relate to that manchild

[@marleymarsss]

@@turtleg7127they meant relate to being bullied as kids bruh lol how did you miss that lol

[@turtleg7127]

@@marleymarsss yeah ok? So Harry related to 60% of the population too… like Jesus voldermort probs used to get bullied. So now Harry wants to relate to voldermort. Like I get they both got bullied but Snapes still a horrible person… (but movie snape is a diff story cuz that man’s a beast)

[@danielj6897]

Sirius tells Harry at one point, "Maybe you're less like James than I thought you were. The risk is what would've made it fun for him." After Harry sees the bullying, he starts to question whether he wants to be more like his father after all. It would've been nice if Harry could've had a sincere moment of apology with Snape, but I doubt he'd be very receptive to it.

[@needyverse]

34:20 Not sure if you understood this, but Snape deliberately reveals that Umbridge has been using Veritaserum (powerful truth serum) to interrogate students, including Cho. Basically, Cho didn't snitch - she didn't have a choice once Umbridge forced the potion down her throat.

[@treeofrage7622]

He was also the reason the Order eventually showed up. "Hes got padfoot at the place it was hidden" idk if its in the movies but in the books you know that Snape definitely knows that Sirius is Padfoot

[@marshallpeters7174]

That whole sequence plays out quite differently in the book. It was Cho's friend who snitched on the group, not Cho herself. Snape gave Umbridge the Veritaserum to interrogate Harry, when she was trying to find out where Dumbledore had gone. Apparently she dumped the entire bottle into the tea she offered Harry, though Snape had told her three drops would be sufficient, but Harry was too smart to drink it.

[@littleogeechee223]

Dan Radcliffe and Gary Oldman did become very close while making the films. Dan’s scream, I read, was so loud and so full,of anguish that it brought both Emma Watson and Helena Bonham-Carter to tears.

[@darkvortex2410]

In the book, it was actually Cho's friend Marietta Edgecombe's. Hermione put a curse on the parchment they all signed up on. If you ratted out Dumbledore's Army your face would be horribly disfigured by a series of close-set purple pustules that spread across her nose and cheeks. These pustules would form the word SNEAK. Over time it would fade by the word could still be seen. Kingsley(the black guy with Fudge) actually changed her memory to keep the order safe which caused Umbridge to LOSE IT. She PHYSICALLY ASSAULTS and screams at Marietta. This is probably the angriest Dumbledore gets in the WHOLE series. Dumbledore is immediately on his feet, wand in hand pointed at Umbridge, and his temper flared. He's PISSED that one of his students is being harmed.

[@LaurinGarcia]

Things in The Order of the Phoenix novel that are not in the movie; Mrs. Fig is a Squib (a person born from a wizarding family but unable to do magic) who was Harry's neighbor for many years. She was even mentioned often throughout the book series. But Harry never knew that Mrs. Fig is actually part of the wizarding community. Harry actually found out about Hagrid being a half giant by mistake during Goblet of Fire. Hagrid's biological mother, Fridwulfa is a giant. Hagrid's father was a wizard. Grawp is Hagrid's brother by way of their giant mother. Ron's brother, Percy had a falling out with the Weasley family. He never believed Harry's story about Voldemort's return and was on the side of the Minister of Magic. Neville's parents are very much alive and are permanent patients at Saint Mungo's Hospital for Magical Maladies. Because of all the torture that Bellatrix, her husband and Barty Crouch Junior inflicted on them they are mentally damaged. While visiting Mr. Weasley in the hospital Harry, Ron and Hermione come across Neville and his grandmother and was able to meet Neville's parents. The Weasley twins weren't expelled. They quit school. When Harry won the Tri Wizard Tournament in Goblet of Fire he gave his winnings to the twins. Harry originally tried to give it to Cedric's father but he refused to take it. As a result of Harry giving it to the twins Fred and George started using the money to start a side business and made Harry as a secret investor and silent partner. That is why the twins kept inventing all sorts of magical practical joke sweets throughout Order of the Phoenix. When the Harry, Ron, Hermione, Neville, Ginny and Luna flew the Thestrals the majority of them couldn't see what it was they were flying. Earlier in the school year they did learn about Thestrals in Magical Beasts class when Hagrid introduced them to the students. Those who had witnessed death had no trouble seeing them. But the rest couldn't and all they saw was raw meat being devoured by some invisible entities. When the group flew the Thestrals it was as if they were flying on thin air. They can feel the animals but couldn't see them. In the end of the book when Harry talks to Dumbledore in his office, Dumbledore reveals that the prophecy actually came from Professor Trelawney and it was he who witnessed Professor Trelawney make prophecy while she was in a trance. The prophecy was; "The one with the power to vanquish the Dark Lord approaches... Born to those who have thrice defied him, born as the seventh month dies... and the Dark Lord will mark him as his equal, but he will have power the Dark Lord knows not... and either must die at the hand of the other for neither can live while the other survives... The one with the power to vanquish the Dark Lord will be born as the seventh month dies..." Dumbledore said that two babies were born at the end of July. Harry Potter and Neville Longbottom. Though the prophecy fit Neville just the same as Harry because Neville's parents also defied Voldemort three times, it was Harry that Voldemort chose to kill instead of Neville. It is believed that Voldemort chose Harry because Harry's mother was a muggleborn. Neville's parents are purebloods. During the last evening at Hogwarts Harry desperately runs to the ghost of Nearly Headless Nick and tries to talk to him about Sirius possibly coming back as a ghost. But Nick tells Harry that the only reason why Nick is a ghost residing at Hogwarts is because he refused to move on to the beyond. He refused to let go and wanted to remain. Nick explained to Harry that Sirius moved on. 📚🪄🔮

[@Masq1980]

'Now as he's holding her - beat her ass like a piñata.' LOL loved that! Also loved that you brought up the fact that the others couldn't see the Thestrals and so, to them, they would be flying on nothing - as well as I think you are the only reactor I've seen so far think of the possibility that Voldemort could have been twisting Harry's mind on purpose with pretending he had Sirius - very perceptive :) In the books, it goes further in depth to explain that Sirius had been checked up on by Severus when Harry said the 'He's got Padfoot at the place where its hidden' and found him still at Grimmauld Place and that is how the Order knew that Harry and friends were in trouble and show up to the fight.

[@allisongrinnell5107]

Neville’s parents didn’t die. They were tortured into madness and live in an asylum. Voldemort was hunting babies from the prophecy. Neville was the next to last baby boy who fit the description.

[@elizabethstrong6057]

"I need more for Sirius Black, I love him." 🤐 Oh, and the books mention that Umbridge is the one who set the dementors on Harry.

[@FLQueerLiberal1982]

Quick note that's never mentioned in the movies, Sirius and Tonks (Nymphadora) are 2nd cousins. Tonks' mother is the sister of Bellatrix and Draco's mother.

[@YenellyT]

so is tonks also draco's cousin?

[@FLQueerLiberal1982]

@@YenellyT yes, her mother Andromeda Tonks (nee Black) is the sister of Bellatrix and Narcissa. Andromeda was disowned after marrying a muggle-born named Ted. Also, I was incorrect about Tonks and Sirius... I ALWAYS confuse 2nd cousin and 1st cousin once removed, or 3rd cousin and 1st cousin twice removed - or is it 2nd cousin once removed? But yeah, Tonks and Sirius are 1st cousins once removed, Tonks and Draco first cousins.

“Umbridge is a scrub. Scrub is an Umbridge.

Watching your excitement throughout was a joy as always! Loved how hyped you got for the Dumbledore/Tom duel. The next 3 movies are entering into the “third act” of the whole saga, so just be prepared for it to get even crazier from here! 😊

[@philipem1000]

I think there are reasons they hate Umbridge so much. Part of it is the banality of her evil. We can understand Voldemort, he wants to rule the world; Umbridge reminds of us those petty little tyrants that are common to bureaucracy. Rowling often commented about how kids understand that some teachers are not fair and not even nice. Umbridge sort of embodies every rotten unfair authority figure we've ever encountered...

[@CrystalClear5617]

Because she is a 2 faced b***, Voldemort is openly evil and doesn't hide what he's about. Umbridge pretends to be all holy and innocent and it pisses me tf off.

[@KayHarperOfficial]

Here Sirius said Nevilles parents suffered a fate worse than death. They aren't dead, they were driven insane and are at the Hospital for magical illnesses.

[@almas4663]

Luna is one of my favorite characters in this franchise.... Even In such an extraordinary place like Hogwarts, she's considered to be out of the norm. People avoid her, or at least are cautios or awkward around her... But she's one of the kindest, purest souls Harry has met yet, and shevonly seems off because of her trauma, and her unique outlook on life... But she's kindhearted, loyal, intelligent, optimistic, wise, and always thinks outside the box.

[@wyrdspace_01]

And I think she's in Ravenclaw, the Divergent version of Erudite, I guess. The quality of Ravenclaw students is usually intelligence.

[@TheDorkSideTV]

This is perfectly said. I love her and hope she has more screen time in the future movies

[@learobinson4450]

@almas4663. Luna makes people uncomfortable because she is truly, completely, unashamedly & unapologetically herself at all times & that’s something the rest of us want to be but don’t have the strength to do.

[@HygorBH]

The Dementors's attack actually proved to be a turning point for Dudley's character. Because Dudley had a happy life without any "worst memories" to experience, the Dementors sucking out his soul made Dudley see himself for exactly who he was/is: A bully. The attack made Dudley realize he needed to change his ways, and ever since then, Dudley started acting kinder to Harry. When Harry stormed off to his room after yet another fight with the Dursleys, Dudley left a cup of tea at Harry's doorstep, and when Harry left the room, he accidentally stepped on it, and assumed it was another prank from Dudley, despite, for the first time ever, being a genuine act of kindness from him. But as usual, the movies never showed this, or hinted it at all.

[@grahamgresty8383]

I wish they had included in the movie one of the, possibly, two most emotional scenes from the books. The most emotional and character developing scenes, for Neville, was him visiting his parents in St. Mungo and receiving the candy wrapper. The other IMO is in Goblet of Fire where Harry gets hugged by Mrs. Weasley in the hospital wing after the shock wears off and Harry realizes that he's the one that convinced Cedric to touch the portkey, and survivor's guilt hits Harry.

[@sararaplee8736]

Imelda Staunton did a fantastic job playing a character who was more hated than the story's main villain. The fact that Umbridge was more hated than Voldemort himself makes the scene where she gets carried away like firewood by the centaurs that much more satisfying. When I first saw Grawp, I thought he looked like the illustrated kid on the cover of MAD Magazine, Alfred E. Neuman. Also.... Cornelius Fudge, after seeing Voldemort: He's back.... Me, sarcastically: *Gee, if only someone said that the previous year and at the hearing. Oh, wait....*

What if after everything that I've been through, something's gone wrong inside me? What if I'm becoming bad?" "I want you to listen to me very carefully, Harry. You're not a bad person. You're a very good person, who bad things have happened to. Besides, the world isn't split into good people and Death Eaters. We've all got both light and dark inside us. What matters is the part we choose to act on. That's who we really are." Fun Fact: Theatrical movie debut of Evanna Lynch. Lost In Adaptation Fact: The character of Nigel (William Melling) was created strictly for the movie; he does not appear in the books. However, he combines elements of The Creevey Brothers. Automobile Enthusiast Fact: During filming, Alan Rickman banned Matthew Lewis and Rupert Grint from being within five meters of his new BMW, because during the making of Harry Potter And The Goblet Of Fire (2005), they spilled a milkshake in his car. Looney For Luna Fact: Evanna Lynch beat 15,000 girls for the role of the beloved Luna Lovegood. The radish earrings worn by Luna Lovegood were made by Lynch. In the scene where Luna Lovegood is barefoot in the forest, Evanna Lynch said that it was fifty degrees during filming, so her feet were really cold. She said the director offered to have a stunt double be barefoot for her, but she declined. Testing One Two Three Fact: J.K. Rowling had been a schoolteacher before writing the books, and this movie featured some references to the British educational system. From the mid 50's up to 1987, students at age sixteen were given Ordinary Level (O-Level) Exams in all of their major subjects, for which they can receive their General Certificates of Education. This corresponds to the Ordinary Wizarding Level (O.W.L.) Exams given at Hogwarts. Students who planned to go on to university stayed on two more years to take their Advanced Level (A-Level) Exams, which roughly correspond to Nastily Exhausting Wizarding Test (N.E.W.T.) Exams.

[@Durag__bandit98]

This movie nerfed dumbledore he was easily beating Voldemort in the book. After Umbridge fired Trewlany Dumbledore hired the Centaur that saved harry in the forest movie 1 to spite umbridge. Nevilles parents were tortured into insanity by Bellatrix lestrange Sirius cousin and Dracos aunt which means sirius and draco related too. They visit the wizard hospital to see Mr weasly was hurt for months the movie made it seem quick but it wasnt and thats where the gang meets neville and see his parents and run into Lockhart who has no memory but knows he used to be famous so just goes around giving autographs cant wait to do this for next movie cuz its a big huge plot point left out ur gonna love

[@Raven5150]

A side story the movie left out is 5th years Dumbledore selects the prefect, they the hall monitors of Hogwarts well ron and herminone were selected but Harry wasn't and on top of Dumbledore distancing himself from Harry lead to more drama, but Dumbledore explained Harry already had enough to deal with

[@moontainbew5018]

Ron and Hermione become Presfects that is also why Seamus backdown. Which is great because in the books Ron is more badace than think, due to he just doubts himself like Neville, but in the backside their more braver better than they think they are. Plus Shacklebolt the cool deep voice black guy is badace in the books he can take on 3 or 2 death eaters. Hes pretty calm barely gets angry, and one of the top tier toughest Wizards. he also was also around with James time said he was cool, though also James was a Bully, but know this Snape and James hated each other like Harry and Draco, the only difference was James grew up and tried to better himself , Snape did not. So he let a childhood grudge go beyond boundaries. Plus though James awas a bully many dont realize this but the other fact is he befriend outcasts that no one liked. Sirius who was from a dark family hated him for not being like him, Lupin who was a strange boy who many thought was weird and poor, and Wormtail .. well easy to understand. So James like Harry takes in outcasts Ron who is poor doubt himself, Hermione, a muggle born, Luna a laughed at friend, Neville, who is clumsy but brave, so basically Harry is like his father here i wonder if any one reads this and thinks on it.

New vernacular for 2024, "Fold his ass up!" Keep 'em comin'!🤣

[@cassiana__6201]

Neville was using his father's wand, that's why he has some difficulty with spells.

[@jackkilman8726]

In the books, we learn that Dumbledore was offered the position of Minister of Magic before Fudge, and turned it down. Fudge knew he wasn't the first choice for the job and lived in constant fear that Dumbledore would change his mind.

[@TransparentEclipse]

I’m hyped for this one cole, can’t wait to see ur reaction to the ending duel, have a feeling it’s gonna be epic! Hope u enjoyed this movie as much as the last ones! Loved the reaction to it for sure! A fun fact for you… in the books, the fight between Voldemort and dumbledore was WAAAAY more lopsided, dumbledore waxed voldemort hard and voldy had to possess Harry basically as a last resort. In the movies they had to make it more lopsided to make Tom look like a bigger threat. But that fight was never close, dumbledore is clearly stronger than Tom in every way

[@arroyalpain]

Order of the Phoenix, let’s go!!! The action is intense but it’s good to see the trio and squad grow into bad asses fighting against wizard criminals. I love Helena Bonham Carter as Bellatrix, she’s such a unhinged character. Super excited for Deathly Hallows pt 1 and 2 - the intensity and action is hard and insane to watch but man, Half Blood Prince is definitely a catalyst for the finale! Great commentary Cole, can’t wait for the next ones !!

[@Raven5150]

In the books delorus admits to sending the dementors this is the longest book the audio version is 26 hours long

[@lilscenechick1995]

I always figured that she did or had something to do with it based on her extremely defensive response to Dumbledore’s underhanded accusation.

[@needyverse]

Craziest part of the Dementor attack at the start is that Dudley couldn't even see them, since he's a Muggle. He just feels their presence, runs with Harry, sees Harry get thrown up against a wall, watches Harry try to say "Run!" to him, then suddenly gets attacked on the floor of the tunnel by something he can't see - just feels his soul and all his happiness getting sucked away. Pretty traumatising, you have to admit.

[@Algorythmfpv]

Calling Filch a "scrub" is hilarious because he's actually a squib. (non magic person born to a magic family, opposite a muggleborn wizard) but sounds very coincidentally close, and hilarious.

[@kulas4362]

This is also my favorite both movie and the book. Love your reaction to this franchise. That moment moment when Sirius died. And... cho actually is not the one that snitch. It was her friend. Can't wait for more...🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥✌️

[@brenoch5641]

I cant wait to see your reaction for the last three movies. These films were part of my childhood and teenage years. It's absolutly amazing to witness someone waching for the first time. I already love your channel, and you seem to be a very nice guy with Chris Pratt likeness :)

[@Katsi404]

The Albus P.W.B.D. goat trumps tiny Tom, as the Prophecy foretold.

[@iwatchthings231]

47:22 You are so right about Dumbledore not wanting to be Minister of Magic. He was, in fact, offered the job on a silver platter no less than five times, and he turned them down each time in favor of being Headmaster of Hogwarts.

[@InimicalWit]

11:49 Right, this is nuts - we still haven’t even begun the school year, yet. Harry’s so much more of the world of witchcraft and wizardry that the school itself hardly encompasses his magical experience Great videos, Cole. Think I called you Colin, once; sorry. Thanks for letting us watch with you 💙

[@Raven5150]

Hagrid is only half giant his dad is human that's why all the other giants are even bigger than him

[@wyrdspace_01]

Yassssss! You're back! I hope you got sorted and this is my favorite of the entire series I believe. Hope you and the rest of the subscribers enjoy!!!🪄🪄🪄Happy New Year!

[@ct6852]

Definitely some great moments in this one. Love that montage scene where they're practicing their spells. Solid editing and score during that scene. Also all the stuff with Luna. And the wizard battle at the end, of course. Feel like a magic standoff like that was one of the only things missing from Lord of the Rings.

[@thetruthseeker3198]

Loving your reactions Cole. A reactor is great when it feels like im watching a movie ive already watched for the first time!

[@TheDorkSideTV]

That is an awesome compliment so thank you for taking the time to leave it!! Happy to have you watching along with me during this marathon ❤️🙏

[@shantizunn]

Can't wait for my absolute favorite "The Half-Blood Prince" (besides The Chamber of Secrets :D) It would be so cool the reaction video to last longer. 😊 P.s. Luna is a Ravenclaw

[@carolinevillar1]

3:19 - Mrs. Figg is the Dursley's neighbor who used to look after Harry as a child when the Dursley's went somewhere and didn't take him. In the first book, for example, Harry only went with them to the zoo because Mrs. Figg couldn't look after him. She was a Squib (born to wizard parents but without powers, just like Filch). 16:50 - Some students hid Luna's things and bullied her for being authentic, real, creative, open-minded and super honest! The members of the armadas were our Luna's first real friends!!! 19:10 - Dumbledore 'ran away' from Harry throughout the book because of this connection between his mind and Voldemort's. Dumbledore was afraid that when Voldemort found out, he would be able to see everything that happened in the Order of the Phoenix and at Hogwarts through Harry's mind. 21:24 - I hate the way the movies have portrayed some characters (Ron, Ginny, Luna...) especially Neville... he's not that fool who can't cast a single spell. He's super hard-working in class, intelligent, hard-working, loyal, fair and a beast at herbology! I hope the new series does justice to the characters! 28:22 - Neville's parents are still alive and live in St Mungus hospital. Soon after Voldemort 'disappeared' (after trying to kill Harry) 4 Death Eaters (Bellatrix, Rodolphus and Rabastan Lestrange and Barto Crounch Jr) went after Neville's parents to try to find out where Voldemort was, and tortured them with the Cruciatus Curse until they 'went mad'. They don't recognize anyone, not even their own son, so despite having living parents, Neville grew up an 'orphan' like Harry. 30:32 - Cho's friend Marieta (who only joined the Armada because Cho asked her to) was actually the one who snitched on the Armada. She didn't believe much in Harry and her mother worked at the ministry, so she was afraid of her mother losing her job and ended up snitching on everyone. 37:34 - The battle at the Ministry was actually quite different from what was shown in the movie. Hermione almost died, Neville's two legs were broken and much more (particularly one of the things I like least about the adaptation). As far as the prophecy is concerned, only the one it's about, could remove it from where it was, and no one other than Harry and Voldemort could also hear it. As Voldemort was a bit 'low-key' he didn't want to appear at the ministry, but he needed to get the prophecy because it contained what he thought 'was the key' to why he couldn't kill Harry, since Voldemort only knew parts of it. 47:38 - The bow is called the veil of death and is studied by the Nameless Ones in the Ministry of Magic. Bellatrix didn't cast an Avada Kedavra on Sirius, she cast another spell (described as a red light) that threw Sirius into the veil, and once there, the person never comes back (a.k.a. dies).

[@FluffySylveonBoi]

Filch was always for cruel punishments, especially physical ones, but they were prohibited and he misses the times when he could torture students, Umbridge got him on her side, because she allowed worse punishments and she promised him he will be able to whip students too (later, so he always has something to look forward to) and she gave him freedom to do many things so he is now her dog. Also the Weasleys are blessed to have Harry, he saved Ginny, now he saved Arthur and also the future of the twins Fred and George. They want to have their own business and Harry gave them the money he won in the Triwizard Tournament, he did not want the money because half of it belonged to Cedric.

[@laurine____7543]

And draco team up with flich bc he was nominated by ombrage to do it He was happy about it tought ^^

[@Raven5150]

Major side story of creature left out he was missing most of the book turns out he been snitching, belatrix is Sirius cousin so creature can speak to her

[@neuralwarp]

The house elf : his name is Kreecher

[@DeborahBarker-dh6nk]

Not expelled , dropping out , With STYLE !!!

[@hi10143]

I love your reaction videos. I look forward to them every week

[@b-six-twelve]

It makes no sense that dumbledore and Harry would lie about Voldemort’s return, but feels so realistic somehow that the ministry would be in denial about it anyway because they were too afraid of what it meant. Kind of reminds me of all the Covid denialism, among other sorts.

[@Raven5150]

The reason there is no audio when Harry is screaming after Sirius is killed is Daniel screamed so loud I'd was unhinging for Helen and Emma so they left the audio out to so how much emotion it was

[@DeborahBarker-dh6nk]

Daniel had just lost a family member , making it even more heartbreaking .

[@tommysimons8165]

Not sure if it’s mentioned in the movie but In the book it is revealed that Umbridge sent the dementors to try and silence Harry from saying Voldemort had returned

[@MatthewJamesKalasky]

Harry had a lot of anger issues in this instalment, and not without good reason, too.

[@jalapenojack]

That line at 24:04 was actually improvised by Emma Watson. Nice video man!

[@lechat8533]

Thanks for another great reaction :)

[@mikolokim8182]

This movie barely scratches the surface with how evil and vile Umbridge is.... People are not lying when they say she is often more hated than Voldemort. This is almost one of those things that if they did do a remake, it should be a tv series because there is SOOOOOO much that should be shown for clarification and substance.

[@chrisherbert7142]

Loving your reactions. I love to see someone fall deep into the potter world for the first time. Dreading you finishing 😢

[@emoartist12]

Snape and Bellatrix are show stoppers in this one.

[@corinnevanessa22]

Always a highlight for me 🫶🏻 Watching your Harry Potter reactions makes me so happy 😊 You can never have enough Tom-Foolery 😉 Hope you had a lovely Christmas and have a magical New Year 🎉 I’m super excited for the Half Blood Prince 🩸🤴🏻 xx 💋

[@Raven5150]

Dumbledore can only find the room of requirement when he's looking for a bathroom

[@jessicat2002]

I told you the first movie Dumbledore was going to be a G 😂 just imagine in the books he was even stronger during that battle I don’t know why they made him look slightly weaker in the movie, even though he was still super strong, but in the books, he was literally just toying with Voldemort and Voldemort is extremely strong. The only wizard that could go toe to toe with him was Dumbledore. That’s why everyone’s scared to say his name. Everyone’s scared that he’s back because he was literally the strongest most evil wizard of all time. but the one person he feared was Dumbledore.

[@Raven5150]

Side story not im the movie we realize Dumbledore has a huge amount of house elfs at Hogwarts, this is where all the food comes from in the banquet hall, and herminones is the only one that has a problem with it and leaves clothes everywhere until Dumbledore assures her his elfs are very well tsken care of and asks her to please stop leaving clothes for them

[@marcopolo1472]

He never does that. The Weasley Twins and Hagrid do that. Dumbledore pays house elves and gives them free days when they ask for it.

[@artembentsionov]

In the book, Bellatrix uses Expeliarmus to push Sirius through the gate into the spirit world. While Rowling always intended it to be final (no one returns from there), many fans thought he might come back. I think that’s why in the movie they made it clear that he was dead with Avada Kedavra

[@antoinetteserrano3082]

Bellatrix is Sirius’ cousin.Also in the book, Harry throws a massive fit in Dumbledore’s office which was quite dramatic I wish they would’ve done that scene

[@cassiana__6201]

The members of Dumbledore's army did well in the defense against the dark arts test. Harry received extra points because he conjured a corporeal patronus.

[@MeisterdiebKid]

Imelda Staunton did an amazing job at portraying umbridge 😄 shes so universally hated, i hate umbridge more than voldemort, voldi at least doesnt portray himself to be good 😅 and nevilles parents arent dead, they went insane after the torture from bellatrix and are in the same asylum as lockhart ^^

[@jeremyferrell9753]

Neville's parents where tortured into insanity he was never happy enough to conger a patrons

[@michellewalters7097]

Two fan films that will give you more information are Sisters of House Black and Severus Snape and The Marauders. They are both on KZbin

[@BrianZatzke]

This was so great of a reaction. Once you said, I can’t wait to see more of Sirius….. Oh no. He’s about to see what happens. Lol. Omg i absolutely hated Umbridge. Omg, she was so EVIL. In the books, Harry’s detention with Umbridge was ongoing and it made the cuts in the hand deeper and deeper everytime. It was so fucked. I wish they brought Firenze into the movie. The centaur that saved Harry from the first movie. Anyway, Half Blood Prince is gonna be so good. I can’t wait.

[@cassiana__6201]

Dobby has been working at hogwarts since the goblet of fire. He should've appeared in the last movie, this one, and in the next, but the directors left out his subplots

[@AHufflepuffAndASwiftie]

Harry was TRYING to help, but Dumbledore kept pushing him back to protect him. 😉
