It's kinda bizarre how these 3 are considered "unforgivable", but plants, potions, especially love potions, and spells that can, and will kill someone much more gruesomely and violently are totally cool. That's like saying shooting someone is forbidden, but stabbing, neck breaking, and burying someone alive, are fine.

[@SJ-di5zu]

Love potions were… uh, definitely a horrible idea. How the hell did Hogwarts not crack down higher security on love potions? Everyone knew Romilda Vane was trying to sneak one to Harry, and she directly got Ron, but she had no consequences? That seems like a jail sentence in real life as attempted r***. One of those things that I didn’t really think about when I read these at like 8 years old, but looking back at it now, it’s pretty bad. Not that different from the Imperius Curse, no? Fred and George probably shouldn’t be selling those. And yeah I get that Rowling wanted to show the good guys were “better” than the bad guys for not using Avada Kedavra, but the good guys managed to kill a ton of Death Eaters without using it, which just opens up more plot holes. Although Lupin did say to “shoot for the kill” to Harry once.

[@inkatana49]

@@SJ-di5zu Agreed. The idea that the "good guys" are better, because they don't use the three curses, is pretty flimsy when you think about it.

[@daangoes121]

​@@SJ-di5zuand when you teach children how to brew 'draught of living death'. That can easily kill a entire room of people

[@j-rey-]

I think the idea is moreso that killing anyone by any means will cause you legal trouble, but USING the killing curse at all, outside of an instructional setting like fake Moody did, is immediately punishable, even if no one got hit, or even remotely got hit. For example, if you were just on the street and shot a killing curse into the sky, you would immediately get jail time.

[@b0ruc]

Unforgivable cursers are: -Unblockable by any spell -By casting them you have to mean to control someone/cause unbelievable pain/kill someone. No other spell or plant needs this level of dedication and they all can be blocked. That's why these are Unforgivable You can for example fight off Imperius but you can not block spell if casted on you

The Memory Charms are not placed in the Unforgivable Curses list because the Ministry has to use it on muggles in case they notice any suspicious magical activity.

[@jah2017]

Great video as usual! I'm just nitpicking here as a huge book fan but if I remember correctly voldemort used the killing curse several times during his fight with Dumbledore. First trying to kill Harry but Dumbledore protected him with the wizard statue, then Voldemort missed a few and then Dumbledore dodged one by disapparating and blocked few more of them with the statues. But anyways I like these Potter videos a lot as well as the Percy Jackson videos. Keep up the great work!

Unforgivable Curse Hattrick has me dying Great video Morgan! The amount of research this wouldve taken is crazy. The editing as always never dissapoints.

[@Truck-kun11]

The addition of Avada Kedavra to the story was one of the worst decisions in my opinion. The concept is cool, an unblockable curse that kills you instantly, but the lack of limitations means that every villain only uses the same green beam, which ruins any creativity in magical duels. The reason Dumbledore VS Voldermort is the best duel in the franchise is because it's one of the only fights that isn't just two guys shooting lasers at each other.

[@Theplough106]

So you want two wizard guys trying to kill eachother just shooting random lasers at eachother, or either large water bubbles and self controlled fire snakes, Sure that's cool but, hang on I'm too lazy to delete this comment so I'm just doing this.

[@SJ-di5zu]

In the movies, they definitely spam Avada Kedavra. But in the books, the bad guys don’t really use it all that often (except the one Death eater in HBP). The reason is, using an Unforgivable in the middle of battle is difficult. It takes a lot of concentration and anger, not to mention you have to be a pretty strong wizard to use it in the first place. Plus there’s the collateral damage element. Going back to HBP, the Death Eater (I think Rowle) was firing killing curses everywhere, and accidentally killed a Death Eater rather than one of the good guys. It also seems like the easiest spell to dodge, so maybe it shoots slowly? Hermione, Ginny, and others directly dodged it, whereas the other spells tend to connect pretty frequently. I think the strategy in the high level duels is to shoot a lot of jinxes/hexes, then once their guard is lowered/they’re injured, use Avada Kedavra. That’s what most Death Eaters did against Order members. But I also see your point. I think one big change that could’ve been made is make Avada Kedavra block able and slow. That would make it so it’s still a super dangerous curse, but an on-guard wizard can always block it. It would give a lore reason as to why the bad guys don’t just spam it 24/7.

[@Disco13895]

@@lightning7234well most of the uses that were left unpunished were cast either before the creation of that law, by the good characters with plot armour and when Voldemort got control over the ministry. Most of the evil users of the curse were captured but I agree they are way to common to be called unforgivable curses. They should be called the tree evil curses or something like that.

Lately I've been watching some of your older Harry Potter videos and I have to be honest, they are extremely good!!! There's more information in one video then some creators have in their entire HP fan channel. It's clear that you do extensive research for each video, assume that comes from the passion that you have for your content.

[@achinthmurali5207]

It took me a while to realize this, but the reason why “Moody” asked Longbottom to see the Cruciartus curse it’s because it wasn’t moody, but Barry Crouch Jr. The same person who had used the curse on Neville’s parents. He was doing it to show that he could. Barty Jr. Was a good teacher, but a terrible human being.

[@SJ-di5zu]

I think Ron or Neville should’ve used an Unforgivable. Maybe Ron kills Greyback for what he said he’d do to Hermione and for killing Lavender, or he kills Rowle for killing Fred? I don’t know, I feel like it’d be an awesome revenge plot. And we all know who I’m implying Neville should’ve killed/tortured. Bellatrix! One of the themes of Harry Potter is revenge imo. Harry has to kill Voldemort, but he also wants to. He wants the revenge. Snape gets revenge on Voldemort for killing Lily. Sirius and Lupin seek revenge on Wormtail, Harry seeks revenge on Snape over Dumbledore, Molly on Bellatrix… I think it could’ve been so powerful if Ron and/or Neville killed prominent Death Eaters in retaliation for what they did.

[@antonangelov3855]

Would have been cool to see Neville get his revenge on Bellatrix. Killing her would be a bit too much, but still, I wanted something. I don't think Harry wanted to kill Voldemort- he just wanted to stop an evil force, but because of the prophecy killing Voldemort was inevitable, also because he just wouldn't give up or surrender. Usually, revenge is represented as a negative- those who seek revenge get punished for it (the bad guys) or get over it (the good guys).

[@Wailmur]

Also Rowle didn't kill fred

[@Mr-Geist-Bong]

I get that revenge angle, would be very cool but the whole point of the story is that vol and harry are so alike yet so different. Vol is defined by his cursed birth and evil choices, where as harry is defined by his genuine connections and good heart, if the good guys started using curses to harm it would change them forever into the very thing they swore to destroy

Even though the Hogwarts Mystery and Magic don't count, I can explain the unforgivable curse was used in Hogwarts Mystery and Magic Awakening. Professor Rakepick uses the cruciatus curse on the dark wizard to demonstrate Jacob’s sibling curse effect. Merula uses the cruciatus curse on Professor Rakepick, but it doesn't work. Professor Rakepick uses the cruciatus curse on Merula but is stopped by Jacob’s sibling and other students. Rakepick uses the killing curse on Ben Copper, but Rowan Khanna jumps in the way and sacrifices their lives in the process. An unknown wizard uses the imperious curse on Rowan to attack his friends but snaps out of it by Ben using the knockback jinx. Professor Elspeth MacGillony uses the imperious curse on the Nifflers for practice and uses it on the students to enter the Great Lake to find a magical crown on her. Bly uses the imperious curse on Jakub Gorski to help him steal what was thought to be a powerful wand and smuggle a dark wizard into the school as he was an Animagus as a lemur.
