Harry Potter and the Goblet of the Phoenix! - What's the Difference?

[@proballa27]

oh man the Neville omission was such a crime! I mean there was so much content in the books that something inevitability was going to be cut out, but that was such a crucial aspect of Neville's character development in the book. When Neville finds out that Bellatrix is out of prison in the books it's like the complete turning point for Neville, he basically becomes the badass of the series from that point on making rapid progress in in the DA lessons and becoming the leader of DA by the 7th book. Maybe it's just that Neville was such a superior character that he would have overshadowed Harry to some extent, but they did his character development a disservice in this movie

[@Dreadjaws]

Specially considering Neville's actual importance to the plot (namely, that all it would have taken would have been a mental coin toss from Voldemort for _him_ to be the actual protagonist of the story).

[@proballa27]

exactly, and I think that plot point was what the movies were trying to avoid, because it kinda diminishes the whole "chosen one" angle of Harry if there's another character with the exact same qualities.

[@sugandhakohli]

honestly speaking, i had a friend who had never read any HP book, but had seen all the movies; didnt actually know that the prophecy could have pointed out to Neville as well.

[@Richard_Nickerson]

But that's HOW he was the Chosen One. Voldemort CHOSE him

I wish they would have included the Weasley's picking up Harry from the Dursley's in the movie. That was probably the funniest moment in the book. Arthur blasting his way out of the boarded up fireplace and the Dursley family all in their nicest suits covered in dust. And Uncle Vernon throwing things at Arthur. And Petunia yanking on Dudley's giant tongue after his fat ass ate that candy Fred dropped. So damn funny.

[@Liutgard]

In my not-so-humble- opinion, Goblet of Fire was the crux, the lynchpin of the series- specifically in the graveyard. When Harry makes the choice to get up from behind where he was crouched, and decides to face Voldemort head-on, that is THE MOMENT in the whole series. Everything hangs on his decision to get up and fight. And I love that moment. That's where I burst into tears- book and movie both.

[@dominicmitchell2088]

That's my favorite moment in the movie

[@fbritannia]

Yeap, it's also my favourite one.

[@Ganychan]

Yes! It defines his choice at the end of 5 to fight Voldemort after hearing the prophecy, instead of ignoring it. The movies underplay that big time.

[@sugandhakohli]

agreed!

[@nickclark1815]

It's when things changed, the series became less about the fun and whimsy of this magical world, and more about stopping a terrible evil, becoming more action oriented. I honestly love the change, as the first three movies feel completely different from the others, but it still fits within the context of the story. It's rather genius.

[@spacewaifuu]

Man the movies were so unrespectful to Sirius and his relationship with Harry, he´s actually so much more present and supportive, it makes you feel the family love Harry never had. And you missed Harry´s grief after Sirius dies, the long talk they had in Albus´s office a whole morning and in between all the things from the office Harry destroyed in a rage attack he had while struggling with realising Sirius was death and Albus being alright with Harry tearing apart his precious objects. It was very harsh on the book. In the movie is not like that at all. Also as a fun thing that Gilderoy Lockhart appears on the Mental Asylum when visting Neville parents, and he´s out of his mind af.

[@nahor88]

Movies 4 and 5 are the absolute WORST in the series, while books 4 and 5 are the best for that exact reason. There was very little to no fan service left in the 4th and 5th movies. A mind boggling decision seeing as how the main demographic watching the movies would be PEOPLE WHO HAVE READ THE BOOKS. Radcliffe supposedly was drunk in many scenes he did... why not go ahead and let him loose destroying Dumbledore's office?

[@christopherrussell2926]

The only acknowledgment of Gilderoy's fate is the "WHO AM I?" Flourish and Blotts scene at the end of Year 2.

[@christopherrussell2926]

The 4 book moments from Year 4 that I missed the most was: *1)* The Dursleys. *2)* The actual Quidditch World Cup match. *3)* Barty Crouch Jr.'s explanation of how he escaped Azkaban with his mother's help, and *4)* Those 3 words that should have capped Albus' eulogy: "Remember Cedric Diggory", which could have EASILY been added in AR as the camera panned up to the Great Hall ceiling. Anyway.... everyone has their opinions, but for me, those were the moments.

[@rachellily]

[@Jason0binladen]

You forgot how we not only see Neville's parents in St. Mungos (I believe they cut St. Mungos because it sounds like a racial slur) But also the fate of professor Lockhart

[@Jason0binladen]

After having his mind changed completely by Ron's broken wand, it was clear that using a broken wand was more dangerous than borrowing another person's wand, because the wand would change loyalty if you overpowered the other wizard, Ron got lucky when he only got sick trying to use the wand, he could have been mentally handicapped the rest of his life, which is why by breaking the elder wand Harry makes sure no one can use it again

[@Jason0binladen]

Let's just say I wouldn't want to be a wizard doctor even if they are paid as much as real doctors

[@TheDark4light]

Yeah he breaks it. Without repairing his old wand. I can deal with him breaking it but really? What are we meant to assume he just got Ollivander to make another one? It was a brilliant scene in the book because it shows Harry staying as normal as he can despite who he could be.

[@Jason0binladen]

TheDark4light that and again broken wands are not usable they make that clear in the book, Ollivander couldn't make a wand made by death, a wand everyone would kill over for centuries, so Harry does the only reasonable thing he breaks it, making sure no one else could use it

[@Jason0binladen]

As for his old wand who's to say he doesn't just take a feather from Fauxes the Phoenix and have Ollivander make another wand? Ron didn't get his wand fixed he got a new one and never complained about it feeling wrong, the wand chooses the wizard therefor fixing broken wands is impossible because they are sentient to the point that they choose the wizard

[@reshufflepuff9564]

What about Dumbledore "calmly" pushing Harry against the wall and shouting at him

I hate Michael gambon as dumbledore

[@92Beyo]

Me too. Richard Harris was like a x10000 times better

[@ZombieChimpanzee]

HARRY DID YA PUT YER NAME IN THE GOBLET OF FIYAH!

[@amvin234]

Neither Gambon nor Harris was a good Dumbledore. Gambon was a little too over the top, and just has a totally different personality than the Dumbledore of the books. And Harris was too subdued, lacking any sort of gravitas, instead giving Dumbledore an aura of "I'm gonna drop dead any moment, and even speaking is a struggle for me." The Dumbledore of the books was described as a much more animated character than Harris's. But overall, I'm more willing to accept Gambon's stronger interpretation of the character rather than Harris's. Can you even imagine Harris dueling Voldemort in book 5??

[@92Beyo]

Yes I can. Harris never had the chance to play the more furious side of Dumbledore, he acted true to the source material, in Book 1 and 2 Dumbledore was that calm. Nevertheless, he was never described like how Gambon played him. Even when angry, it was more of a tranquil fury, never shouting like an idiot. I think Harris would have nailed that part.

[@lobsterairsoft499]

The order of the phoenix movie is a crime. It is the second shortest movie and excludes so much cool stuff from the book. And its not like the stuff they left out was because they couldn't fit it in. It would have been easy to show them at St Mungos, or extend the sequence in the department of mysteries etc etc etc

[@pytergomes6321]

[@Rubberman202]

I think a major problem with these adaptations was that the movies were being made while the books were still being written, meaning the screenwriters and directors didn't know what would and what wouldn't be important.

[@indy_go_blue6048]

@@trisin What Rubberman means is that several of the films had been made or were in process before book 7 was published, and Jo herself says she was extremely secretive about how it would play out. Other reviewers, both serious and YT plebes like Cinemafix, have commented on the same thing.

[@jmorgan3977]

Actually, JK Rowling was in constant contact with screenwriter Steve Kloves and did let the creative team know what would be important. For example, they were gonna cut Kreacher out of movie 5 (the only movie Kloves didn't write btw) but she told them he had to be in it because he'd be important later. These movies are different from the books simply because every movie adaptation is different from the books. I'm not saying you fall under this, but a lot of book readers can't seem to grasp that it's gonna be different, and that's ok that it is.

[@chsparkle]

Actually, I think it's mentioned it was red light that hit Sirius in the department of mysteries, suggesting a stunner rather than a killing curse which is green. Going through the veil meant his death but if he hadn't fallen through, he might have been okay. In the film, they just make it green and clearer that Belatrix killed him.

[@loreleishuck4453]

While a Stunning Spell is red, its not the only spell of that color. Knowing Bellatrix Lestrange, I think it is more likely that she would cast a Cruciatus Curse than a stunner, even if she and Sirius were cousins. Another possibility would be the Disarming Charm, which is said to have a Scarlet color.

[@blablatarantino4718]

Eilidh Macleod I'm pretty sure, that she used a Cruciatus Charm

[@parttimesaint3165]

I whipped out my book to check. It says Bellatrix fired a jet of red light which Sirius easily evaded and he taunted her to do better. Bellatrix's "second jet of light" hit Sirius. It can easliy be assumed it was another red jet (which I, too, do) but it could be any colour. As to which spell she used, we can only assume it wasn't a green jet symbolising Avada Kedavra. The only indication is that Sirius' "eyes widened in chock" and he had a "look of mingled fear and surprise" on his face. Stupefy (as I see it) doesn't allow the target to show any emotions, they just drop unconcious. Who knows? Hagrid could take a few without falling. Maybe Sirius was just so resiliant he could stay concious (albeit not in control of his body) for the duration of him falling backwards into the veil. In short: All we know is that she used a jet of light. Colour presumably red. Have a nice day.

TheKeyser94 Stop using feminine words to try and insult women. There's nothing inherently wrong with bitches and pussies. And Jo's interpretation of prophecies is amazing, because they only are self-fulfilling ones.

[@TheKeyser94]

Ganychan No her interpretation is pure wish-fulfilment, nothing more, nothing less, she was afraid, she had no guts, she should have ended what she had began, not give excuses for the character not to have character development, that story would have ended much better if Harry actually had become a killer.

[@Ganychan]

TheKeyser94 "That story would have ended much better if Harry had become a killer". No. Sometimes courage and "having guts" is about not killing and being the better person while trying to give the one who hurt you the opportunity to repent.

[@TheKeyser94]

Ganychan No, that isn't being brave, that is playing safe, because you are fucking afraid of actually doing something new or innovative, speak about a controversial subject, Rowling was and is still in her nice ivory tower about that subject, at least she had come down a few steps, but not much.

He literally sacrifices himself and Voldemort's spells don't work but in the movie he wins in a laughable duel. ugh the movies are so not great

[@BlueSparxLPs]

In all honesty, the only thing I dislike about 7 P2 is the way Voldemort dies. I think even in a movie context, it would have been more powerful for him to simply fall to his death after a tense moment of quiet (the moment of quiet being solely for the dramatic suspense that would better fit the theater).

to me one of the biggest differences (after the Christmas at the Closed Ward, of course), was the whole scene after the fight at the ministry. Dumbledore's explanation on Harry's connection with Voldemort, and how the prophecy plays into all of it.

+ChanCeNecK It's pretty well-known that virtually none of the famous adult actors took the HP movies the slightest bit seriously. Especially the villains.

There is one thing hardly anyone mentions when talking about the differences, and understandably so since it doesn't really impact the plot, which is the wierd and totally awesome shit they see in the department of mysteries. The unspeakables working there, the brains, the time room and so much more. It's fascinating to see that there is actual research into different types of magic going on.

[@OoznynKoo]

The 5th book was probably my favorite, and my least favorite film adaptation. I think the biggest thing they missed, which I feel was conveyed by the book though not in so many words, was the thing about the mirror at the end: Harry could've used it to figure out Sirius wasn't actually in any danger, and In the book, I think he realizes this, but not so in the movie.

One of the things I really like about this series is that they discuss the differences, but generally don't judge them one way or the other. It's informative and entertaining, and doesn't force their opinions on you. Most people can't seem to do this without injecting their opinion into it, and that often makes it seem biased one way or the other.

They were putting their own opinions in it though, and missing out on huge changes, so it loses value in information.

[@indy_go_blue6048]

Dowling needs to take a break from writing and focus on what it truly means to be an Englishwoman.

[@alphasierra.]

Wanna find out if he was gay?

[@Crash_2099]

Alpha Sierra I mean he chases after a younger boy throughout the series

[@ehtuanK]

Wow, that "That's what she said!" totally got me. Spewed apple juice all over the carpet, well played!

[@jcaudill07]

It always drove me nuts in the Goblet of Fire film that Fudge announces himself as Minster for Magic at the world cup. Am I wrong or is it the Minister OF Magic???

[@sivad1025]

no you're right. I've always thought for sounded classier but since it's the only time used it sounds out of place.

[@Dreadjaws]

Minister of Magic is in the american books, while Minister _for_ Magic is the original british version.

[@sivad1025]

Dreadjaws But they say of in the movies... why change it in the first place???

[@Dreadjaws]

sivad parks They also localize those things in the movies.

[@maxnobel2044]

After marathoning the first four films last Saturday, I really appreciate how the films continue to present Neville's evolution as a possible chosen one.

[@eriqrodriquez8425]

So somebody should fix the caption at 9:45 to say "in St. Mungo's," as in the name of the hospital they see Neville at... also "Christmas on the Closed Ward" is the name of a chapter at 10:01

[@Doctor_Straing_Strange]

Also in the books it's Dobby who tells Harry about the room of requirements instead of Neville

[@avery8323]

*Calmly* If ur a true potterhead, u know what this means

[@nickclark1815]

It means Dumbledore doesn't go "HARRYDIDYAPUTCHARNAMEINTHEGOBLITOFFAR" that always made me laugh, because it's so ridiculous the way he says it. That is something I noticed almost immediately though, what an odd thing to change.

[@kkittyyt7961]

Avery in the book, "calmly" in the movie "HARRY! DID YOU PUT YER NAME IN THE GOBLET OF FIYA????"

[@mariannaschwark]

5:07 When Harry wrote Sirius' name on the letter, I was thinking "But wouldn't he write Padfoot for secrecy?"

[@zoetheepic1125]

IT'S NOT SPEW!! IT'S S.P.E.W.!!

[@JorgeHuerta95]

I had totally forgotten you where doing this, so I when I saa it (not expecting it) I got really excited. This is awesome!

[@rachelconsoli8428]

I'm so happy you mentioned the christmas break/st. mungo's stuff cuz it really was a freaking crime!! I can't wait to see what you do to movie 6 tho because while I get most of the cuts in the movies up until then, movie 6 is a fucking travesty and gets rid of SO MUCH necessary plot stuff to make way for romcom sideline bullshit.

[@edward4840]

Do the Thing and Who Goes There! It'll be AMAZING!

[@Alex-zq9ru]

Goblet of the phoenix what?

[@bradleya3381]

You- you get it, right?

[@deadzedcomics]

I love your use of that ancient Czech film, the one about the Golem

[@countersims]

You forgot how they left out Bertha Jorkins

[@bjones2600]

What a birthday present to me!!! Thanks CineFix!!

[@99lodewijk]

I would suggest 'what's the diffrence... Percy Jackson' But that' d be too easy. Everything is diffrent

[@stephenchin2178]

FINALLY!!! I've been craving this video!

[@canine221]

How messed up is it that the same guy who tortured Neville's parents was teaching at the school and performed the same cruciatus curse on a spider RIGHT IN FRONT OF HIM! That's so beyond fucked up

[@MaCabaret]

It was bellatrix lestrange that tortured neville's parents.

[@splash._]

Cabaret Macabre along with Barty Crouch Jr. , Rodolpus and Rabastan Lestrange

[@MrSamusdark]

See you guys next year when they release the last part.

[@uknwtheusername]

Everyone will hate me for this but.... they should remake the Harry Potter franchise into a series, leaving out no detail, making it a perfect adaptation from book to screen. Although, maybe wait a few years till everyone's forgotten about harry potter.

[@RedKingdomWarrior]

Considering how the movies we have turned out in length just with what was cut, you could potentially have a 7 films at 6 hours per film (which no theater would logically carry) or a Hobbit treatment of anywhere between 14-21 movies covering the 7 books. That is a spell for disaster for a movie series! Adaptations have to trim their source material like this and present the focus and items related to the focus Ain the best way possible. I love the analysis these guys are doing. Another reviewer called The Dom is looking at the films, too, but complains about what gets removed without looking at the focus of how adaptation really works.

[@uknwtheusername]

RedKingdomWarrior Sorry to cut you short, but perhaps I didn't make it clear in my comment, and I apologize, but I meant television series.

[@fightingmedialounge519]

He knows he is just saying whether it be a movie or tv harry potter will never be a perfect adaptation.

[@uknwtheusername]

Kye Dysarthria "you could potentially have a 7 films at 6 hours per film (which no theater would logically carry) or a Hobbit treatment of anywhere between 14-21 movies" So no, I'm pretty sure he didn't get it. As for whether a TV series could be perfectly adaptable is arguable. It is definitely possible. Especially if they make it 1 book = 1 Season of 22 episodes 45-60 mins long. That's potentially 22 hours per season ( the first seasons would be shorter, and the later ones longer to accommodate for the books). How accurately they stick to the storylines and the characters is really up to the director, but if they do anything near the existing movies, it'll be good enough.

[@fightingmedialounge519]

No it is not when it comes to adapting novels like harry potter you're going to have to make change's and leave some stuff out if you don't the adaptation will fail.

[@ASLTheatre]

I am glad you guys pointed out this isn't a one for one difference but a general difference in story's and how they played out. I am also glad you guys didn't fall off the face of the earth. Your difference between the book and the movie of The Martian has been my favorite.

[@izzierose2]

I was so annoyed when they cut out so many Sirius scenes. Especially in the Goblet of fire.

[@jidm19]

This is perfect, as I am going through the HP series book right now. So I'm super stoked this happened. ON WITH THE VIEWING!

[@jordanknoxville]

do kick ass 2 what's the difference or the walking dead season 4

[@baddonkey75]

kickass is a book?

[@TheComicMaster1995]

Yep, they even did a video of ot

[@tjarsun]

Amazing! Looking forward to part 3!

[@blowfishes]

You missed one of the main bits that peeved me and that is the way Dumbledore reacted to Harry after his name is drawn from the Goblet of Fire. In the film Dumbledore grabs Harry and pins him against a wall demanding to know if he put his name into the Goblet. This is way out of character for Dumbledore. In the book he calmly asks Harry if he put his name in or got an older student to do it for him. This ads more importance to the laster incident in the Half-blood Prince where Harry doesn't try too hard to get the memory from Slughorn and feels terrible about his lack of effort when Dumbledore explains the importance of the memory almost with a sigh. It shows the first time that Dumbledore has shown any real negative emotion towards Harry.

[@alexishernandez1128]

Please don't make us wait so long for the next installment! i love this series!

[@gyromurphy]

Bout time knuckleheads. And what...December we'll finally get Harry Potter and the Half blood Hallows? Shaking my f-cking head. You see that bullshit↑ you made me do? Why was i compelled I to censor my words for your comment section...?

[@benstrigle1209]

Because someone put an imperius curse on you

[@jasonblalock4429]

Unless the writers are *serious* Potterheads with photographic memories, these have to take a long time to edit and compile, especially with each book after Azkaban being 600+ pages. And it's not like these are the only projects the channel is working on...

[@GiantPetRat]

Calm down, kiddo. You're getting these videos FOR FREE.

[@gyromurphy]

Araxie Rose why? Everyone else gets to be cunty on youtube. I'm just following suit.

[@batshine8]

Yes, strip away your individuality and conform!

[@obiwankenobi395]

Me:reads title Also me:visible confusion

[@Christophee1987]

Although most of the film's finale is a rushed nonsensical mess, I do like the sequence with Voldemort possessing Harry better than the book version.

[@xxSOME1ELSExx98]

Damn it when you unintentionally stubble upon & begin a ongoing series... I'm Subscribed now

[@arihellfire]

Do this for the hobbit lol

[@supersmashgamer1248]

Im saying, the devils are in the walls! Idk why, but the line is so cool!

[@brandonanderson1919]

Where is the what's the difference for Game of Thrones

[@XTheJaws]

watch Preston Jacob's "What you are missing" Series. He does it for each episode and is somewhere at the end of season 3 now.

[@Richard_Nickerson]

Pretty much a book per season. And there is a LOT of omitted material. A LOT

[@LOLKrlos]

If people think they butchered the Harry Potter books, there's barely anything left from ASOIAF in the show.

[@alexarias5717]

Carlos.C especially on the sixth season lol

[@BigBadMumba]

a

[@GrandMaMaYT]

this content is magical

[@squidy7771]

wait... aren't voldemort's eyes red? why did they change that in the movie??!!

[@coen8323]

Squidlord to make him more human like

[@calamitousenigma9052]

Which is dumb af.

[@TamagoSenshi]

Red eyes are edgy and detract from the seriousness of antagonists

[@TiroX517]

I've heard that with his eyes being red it was hard to see any emotion in his eyes, which to me seems perfectly fitting for Voldemort but meh. Also I'm not sure if this is the actual reason.

[@loganbigmo]

Mike Newell, the director of _Goblet of Fire_ wanted his eyes blue as he believed red could not convey emotion. David Yates kept that in for consistency although he allowed Voldemort to have a normal tongue in his movies (Voldemort had a split snake-tongue in Goblet)

[@soonsims]

I think it's ironic how the video talks about how much is skipped in book four while the video itself mentions like 10% of the differences. Nice job.

[@quinnconnelly7245]

We need a fourth Walking Dead episode

[@halcohen122]

Can't wait for episode 3!!!

[@21dumpstreet93]

I prefer Sherry squatter and The Sorcerer's bone

[@mel2nieee]

Thank you for clearing all this up for me! I thought Neville was bothers by the Imperious curse because he likes bugs. I didn't know his parents were tortured. Thank you.

[@shinobitoby]

Can you guys do Civil War Comics vs the movie

[@briankentpirrie5228]

do one on dune (1984)!!!!

[@felipeleguer87]

that would be a long video XD

[@briankentpirrie5228]

Felipe Leguer have your hear of the unmade jodorowsky's dune?

[@Dreadjaws]

Linkara made a video of that. More or less. But yeah, it would really take long.

[@DoraLee90]

The Lost in Adaptation videos by The Dom are done soooo much better and more interestingly.

[@FLEXICUTlON]

Order of the Phoenix and goblet of fire get it right lol

[@Greek75]

Omg they have merged the names of both goblet of fire and order of the Phoenix come on now

[@tomofdutyftw4412]

I know I noticed that 😂

[@FLEXICUTlON]

Sorry XD

[@dillonfabianfallil1942]

Damn This needs more likes.. Very well done guys!!!

[@juliawunder1521]

You forgot: "HARRY, DID YOU PUT YOUR NAME IN THE GOBLET OF FIRE?" ...............................he said calmly.

[@AndrewUnchaned]

FINALLY WHERE HAVE YOU BEEN?!

[@dustinjohnson2177]

It's definitely on the list.
