this is why Hermione slapping (not punching btw) Malfoy feels that much better in the book. it's so much more out of character for Book Hermione to physically assault a student than Movie Hermione, who for some reason got painted out to be much more than she actually was. *EDIT* : also book Hermione is supposed to have buck teeth (which i believe Morgan covered in his PS video), and that only goes away when in GoF Malfoy (or was it Goyle?) jinxes her & makes them grow even longer, and then she tells Madam Pomfrey to shrink them to even shorter than what it was previously! it's only after this that Hermione's "beauty" is ever mentioned, and this is when Ron started noticing her as a potential dating partner (which ironically started with their awkward moment at the Yule Ball).

Crookshanks wasn’t even a regular cat.

Aging up the Marauders, Lily, and Snape actually annoys me. Part of the tragedy is how young Lily and James were when they died. They had barely left school or had time to start their lives, and yet they were prepared to die fighting. I've always felt this is part of the reason why Harry accepted the need to fight so young, because that is what his parents did. Snape's character also makes so much more sense if he is 30, rather than nearing 50. Snape's life basically freezes or ends when Lily dies. When Lily died he was only out of school for about two years. That is mostly why he is still so angry at his high school bullies, and still so deeply in love with his childhood best friend. That is why he was stupid enough go to Voldemort to save Lily and why he was immature enough to not care if James lived or died. Snape was still a kid when he was a death eater.

Still hate how the screenwriter gave Hermione Ron’s line of “if you want to kill Harry, you’ll have to kill us, too.” It was one of Ron’s amazing brave moment. It was the moment where he showed how much he cared about Harry that he was even willing to _die_ with him. Right there, he bravely stood up to Sirius, who he thought was a freaking murderer. And declaring that, if he (Sirius) is going to kill Harry, then he should kill him, too. And he did that ON A BROKEN LEG. but of course, the screenwriter just _had_ to give his moment to Hermione. Just like he did with plenty of other Ron moments. Is giving Ron his own lines and moments a torture or something?

The way the movies portrayed Harry and Ron’s friendship made people misunderstand their relationship. Harry and Ron were CLOSE, like inseparable. They immediatly became friends on the train and Ron was already very loyal offering to be Harry’s wingman in the midnight duel and even sacrificing himself in the game of chess.

This may just be my hot take here, but I actually really like Lupin’s werewolf form in the movie. The scrawniness, hunched back, and crackling bones (while he’s transforming) makes it seem like an ungodly affliction. Something that you wouldn’t even wish on your worst enemy. (Edit): Also, the wolfsbane potion didn’t completely stop Lupin from turning into a wolf. It just allowed him to “keep his mind” while he was one. “I was a very small boy when I received the bite. My parents tried everything, but in those days there was no cure. The Potion that Professor Snape has been making for me is a very recent discovery. It makes me safe, you see. As long as I take it in the week preceding the full moon, I keep my mind when I transform... I am able to curl up in my office, a harmless wolf, and wait for the moon to wane again. Before the Wolfsbane Potion was discovered, however, I became a fully fledged monster once a month. It seemed impossible that I would be able to come to Hogwarts. Other parents weren't likely to want their children exposed to me.”

I haven’t read the books in a while, but if I remember correctly Cedric tried to have the match replayed because he realized what happened to Harry, and he didn’t think it was fair for Hufflepuff to win that way Gryffindor turned him down but it’s a nice little moment that shows you what kind of a person Cedric is

[@davidw.2791]

They could have done this. They could have done it without even having to cast a guy to play Cedric one film before his big outing in GoF. But Cuaron decided the Quidditch mid game (where Harry DID successfully cast a Patronus but it “doesn’t count” as the dementors were not real ones) and finale (where Gryffindor wins partially so that Malfoy can stfu about being smug that Buckbeak was gonna die).

Theory: Crookshanks is actually James and Lily's previous cat, and when they died he was placed in a pet shop. He recognized Sirius in his dog form and his human form, and he also recognized Peter which is why he was always after him. And if Ron let Crookshanks eat Scabbers, Dobby, Tonks, Cedric, Lupin, Sirius, etc would all be alive as Voldemort would have never been revived. The hero of the story would be a cat!

Another theory is that Crookshanks is actually Serious’s brother (idk how to spell his name) who knew how to turn in a animajis because Serious did and left a something lying around that told you how to turn into a animal. And he survived Voldemort’s horcrucks and was angry when Peter framed Serious. So he decided he wanted to eat Peter.

The bond of the Marauders and how that plays as a character motivation for Harry is one of the most important parts of the series and it really saddens me that they cut nearly all of that background information in POA. Harry's "Prongs" line is so emotional and not only is it not in the movie, but it wouldn't make sense if it was there. I still see POA as the best movie though, I think Alfonso was the best director of the 4 and he did a great job adapting the book to a movie. The way he shows the time-turner and the interactions between future and past Harry and Hermione here is more comprehensible than it is in the book, and more interesting.
