Snape knew. He told umbrige he didn’t know what Harry was talking about and immediately alerted the order.

[@shynessemoslay9020]

the dichotomy of it all

[@hoosting1998]

Umbridge is honestly one of the best written villains ever. There's nobody that doesn't hate her guts

[@turntsnaco824]

And often more than Voldemort at that, which is really powerful. Makes sense though...we haven't really been given a ton of hard, visceral reasons to _HATE_ Voldemort by this point. We know he's evil - we know he's prejudiced against mudbloods, we know he killed Harry's Parents. We watched him order Wormtail to kill Cedric. But like.....those are all things you expect from a racist psychopath with an ambition for world dominance. He's the status quo for "evil villain". But Umbridge was "just" a ministry official in pink, filling a teaching position at the local boarding school. There's no reason she had to be the way she was. But she's proof that evil has many faces and takes many forms. It isn't all demonic imagery and voodoo witchcraft. Sometimes it's as simple as someone trying to bury the truth, and willing to subdue and even harm anyone who gets in their way, including children - and that's summing her up in as FEW words as possible....

[@ajandrianjafymusic]

I might be wrong but I believe Stephen King said that she (umbridge) is one of the best written villains. Not sure how credible it is but to have someone that’s written evil like King say that about your own character must’ve been a trip for JK

[@zelbayanym]

4:14 Muggles can't see dementors, so Dudley just experienced all that without seeing what was happening

[@sam_imp2743]

Well spotted on Percy. His storyline isn’t adapted in the film. There’re bits set up in the fourth book with him working for Mr Crouch and being ambitious and sort of feeling embarrassed by his Dad’s reputation. But in OotP, Fudge promotes Percy to his junior assistant simply to try and get info on Dumbledore through his Dad. Percy doesn’t see that and thinks that he is being held back because of his dads reputation for loving muggles etc and they had a big argument about it and Percy cut all ties with the rest of the family. There is one bit in Harry’s hearing where he sycophantically laughs at Fudge’s joke about Harry’s nonsense stories. Non of this story line is played out other than spotting that he works for Fudge in the film. It doesn’t just end here though even with Fudge accepting the truth and resigning…for now, Percy will continue not talk to the family. There is a great line where it says that Dumbledore says it “people find it much easier to forgive others for being wrong than for being right.” Ron says “it’s the sort of mad thing that Dumbledore would say”

RIP MAGGIE! THANK YOU FOR THE MEMORIES!

[@rhondanoel2953]

Omg! The way that you're able to recall things from the previous movies and decipher stuff is phenomenal. I really enjoy your reactions. Keep up the good work!

[@marshallpeters7174]

Snape couldn't let on in Umbridge's office that he knew what Harry was talking about. He did immediately alert the Order, though, which is how they were all able to arrive in the nick of time. Dumbledore took a bit longer to arrive because he was in hiding. Also, I think you're the first reactor I've seen who recognized Percy in Dumbledore's office.

[@Kr4th]

Dumbledore also went to save Umbridge from the Centaurs.

[@rainbowpegacornstudios]

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....*

[@samanthapatton4139]

"RESIGN?? I want him in Azkaban!!" Hilarious! 😂

[@learobinson4450]

Some background to give more context to the movies. No spoilers, just more context. Sirius had 3 cousins. They were the daughters of his father’s brother. The Black family believed strongly in blood purity so all of the Black children were expected to marry other Purebloods. Sirius’ oldest cousin was Bellatrix. She married Rodolphus Lestrange & she & her husband became Death Eaters. It was Bellatrix, Rodolphus & his brother Rabastan along with Barty Crouch Jr. who tortured Neville’s parents, Frank & Alice Longbottom, so severely that they lost their minds. They now are in the Permanent Spell Damage Ward of the wizard hospital, St. Mungos. The second daughter is Andromeda & she was Sirius’s favorite cousin because, like him, she didn’t believe in Blood Purity. Her parents wanted her to marry Rabastan Lestrange but she refused. Instead she was disowned by the Black family since she married muggleborn wizard Ted Tonks. They are the parents of Nymphadora Tonks - the young woman at the beginning of the movie who can change her appearance at will. Sirius’s youngest cousin was Narcissa. She married Pureblood wizard Lucius Malfoy & is the mother of Draco. Dumbledore distanced himself from Harry because he suspected Voldemort was accessing Harry’s mind. He didn’t want Voldemort to use Harry as some kind of unwitting spy. Dumbledore thought if Voldemort believed that he & Harry had the typical student/teacher interactions then Voldemort wouldn’t be tempted to invade Harry’s mind to find out what the Order of the Phoenix was up to. That’s why Dumbledore didn’t want Harry to know what the Order was doing or their plans.

[@FancyHattt]

You can’t just cast the killing curse, To quote the book: “Avada Kedavra’s a curse that needs a powerful bit of magic behind it - you could all get your wands out now and point them at me and say the words, and I doubt I’d get so much as a nosebleed. But that doesn’t matter. I’m not here to teach you how to do it." But also keep in mind what Bellatrix says in OotP: "Never used an Unforgivable Curse before, have you, boy?" she yelled. She had abandoned her baby voice now. "You need to mean them, Potter! You need to really want to cause pain - to enjoy it - righteous anger won’t hurt me for long" 43:00

[@p.gin3955]

14:03 Yes, and if you remember in the last film when Prof. Moody (Barty Crouch Jr.) was performing the 3 unforgivable curses in class, he used the Cruciatus Curse (The Torture curse) on the spider creature on his desk and made Neville watch it up close, that's the exact same curse that was used to torture Neville's parents... That's why Hermione cried out "Stop It! "

[@pamelalee1508]

EVERYBODY hated the pink tyrant !!!... honestly you have a good soul..it shows in your reactions..to the characters..the cast members..well done !... 🌿🌿🌿

[@Malark_o]

To add more context to the Neville situation, his parents were tortured for information with the cruciatus curse to the point of insanity by Bellatrix. They are now in a wizarding world hospital, which Neville and his grandmother visit often. It isn't highlighted in the movies, which is a shame, since it adds a lot to Neville's character. (Especially the part where he keeps each bubble gum wrapper his mother gives him when he visits)

[@Malark_o]

Another fun Neville fact: he could have been "The Chosen One." The prophecy does not name harry by name, but that a child born in late july to parents who defeated volemort three times. This child would bring about the downfall of Voldemort. Neville and Harry were born within days of each other, both parents having defeated Boldemort three times. Voldemort essentially chose Harry, fufilling the prophecy, and literally making him the Chosen One, not Neville.

So as you saw in the second film Tim Riddle was a handsome young man who took after his father who was a Muggle (Tom Sr.) after graduating from Hogwarts he traveled and learned darker magics and sacrificed parts of himself for knowledge and abilities.

Tom Riddle went to Hogwarts 50 years ago, WAY before Harry's parents.

[@ravenm6443]

No lie, I literally cried! She was a wonderful actress and such a brilliant person to watch on screen! But Professor Mcgonnagal is my favorite character in Harry Potter. Somehow, she made everyone feel like you could approach her, through the screen lol, she felt like a teacher but also like a grandmother. Idk how she managed to play that part with both those roles simultaneously. She’d tell you like it is, she’d be honest with you, she’d be disappointed if you didnt something you shouldn’t have, maybe sometimes amused by the antics lol, but she’d always have your back and be so proud of the person you’ve become. I absolutely loved her as this character and as an actress, just so brilliant and lovely!

[@babablacksheepdog]

Not sure about the films, but in the books, Cho is a year older than Harry, and Cedric was three years older than Harry. Also, no, Harry's dad and Tom Riddle did not go to Hogwarts at around the same time. Voldemort is in his late 60s/early 70s, but his appearance has been so altered by his evil magic that it's impossible to tell his actual age. Hagrid went to Hogwarts at around the same time as Tom Riddle, but was a few years younger than him. Dumbledore is well over 100 years old. Although wizards are not immortal, they are very long-lived, and remain healthy and vigorous at ages 100+. The films kind of messed up with the casting for Harry's parents, as they look like they are in their mid to late 30s in flashbacks, but actually they were in their early 20s when they had Harry. Sirius, Lupin, Peter Pettigrew, Harry's parents and Snape were all in the same year at Hogwarts, so Lupin, Sirius, Pettigrew and Snape are meant to be in their 30s at the time of the events of the books (again, the films have age the characters up by casting actors in their 40s and 50s to portray them). Lucius Malfoy was at Hogwarts at around the same time as them, but was a few years older.

[@grahamgresty8383]

You are correct: Snape understood Harry's message and passed it on to the order of the phoenix. You also noticed Ginny's power which is shown here because it was a different screen writer (she's more like book Ginny). From now onwards, the old writer returns and Ginny returns to being a 'simp'. Ron is also made the comic relief moreso as the writer wanted to put Harry and Hermione together. You are also correct: Chow is a year older in the books but in the films she becomes the same age as the trio, in that she is still at school when Nevil is in year 7 but shares none of their classes! In the books, magic galleon coins are used to summon Dumbledore's army displaying the time to meet. These were used by older students later to be summoned into battle.

[@Masq1980]

In the books, Moody put Dissolutionment charms on the group which basically turns you into a human chameleon, not exactly 'invisible' but close enough to where muggles wouldn't notice them flying around. Padfoot is Sirius's nickname when he was in school. You pick up on a lot of small things, I think you're the first reactor I have seen, notice that Filch seems to be eating a Bread/Bread sandwich lol. Also - how Sirius communicates through the fire - I love both ways actually...the one with the coals as his face was kind of cool too because I kind of imagined it that way when I read the books initially when they first came out. It's described, if I remember right, as if the speaker is putting their head into the fire so they are basically kneeling on the hearth ...so it just seems natural to me that the face as the fire was cool

He definitely has a deadly kind of grace that's darkly magnetic.

no its not easy to cast the killing curse, it takes a lot of old dark magic to perform. and actually the amount of times Voldemort has used it since his teenage years is part of the reason he looks like he does - which he already did before he tried to kill the Potter family, but it surely got even worse.

Great reaction! You are fun to watch. To answer your question, no, Tom Riddle and Harry's dad didn't go to Hogwarts at the same time. Remember, wizards have much longer lives than Muggles. They can live up into their 200's. Harry's parents went to Hogwarts in the 1970's. As I recall, Tom Riddle went to Hogwarts in the...1930's? Or was it the 1950's? Anyway, at least 30 years before Harry's parents showed up. Harry's parents died in their early 20's. Tom Riddle had already established himself as Voldemort and had a cult following by then, and was much older and craftier.

Snape also provided fake Veritaserum. By now you should realize with Snape things are not like they seem. Imelda Staunton (the actress who plays Umbridge) is also a very talented actress in her own right. She especially is good at playing weird characters (and the Queen). Slytherpuff here - which means IF I answer the queestions honestly I am a Hufflepuff, but since the Sorting hat would take my choice into account - I am Slytherin (plus so far I have always managed to be sorted into Slytherin).

[@toodlescae]

In Dudley's defense muggles can't see Dementors and the only person he knows who can do magic is Harry. You saw Voldemort as a young Tom Riddle in the 2nd movie. He looked handsome for years until he started delving into *really* dark magic. That started to change his looks so drastically that almost no one who knew Tom Riddle realized he was Voldemort during his first attempt to take over. The magic they used to give his fragment of soul left after his body was destroyed the tiny ugly body and sustain it finished the transformation. Voldemort is much older than Harry's Dad, Sirius, Lupin and Snape were. Voldemort was 66 in the 2nd movie. The others were (or would have been) in their 30's. Harry's parents were only about 21 when they were killed by Voldemort.

[@biancaeze14]

BRUV! Don't have us waiting this long for your HP reactions.

[@abhishekankit4154]

The prophecy was about Harry, which shows that Harry is way more powerful than Voldemort, but he marks him as his equal, as both of them are Half blood & Harry's parents defeated him thrice, that's why he wanted to kill Harry when he was just 1 year old. Cho never told Umbridge about DA, it was her friend, this led to breakup between Harry and Cho. Voldemort was quite handsome, but he lost his good personality, you will come to know the reason in next movie.

For real the scene when Sirius die, there must be voice down becours the screem of harry was so painfull that even Belatrix and Hermione begone to cry

[@chris...9497]

Poor Harry is going through serious PTSD. Yes, this freezing cold is localized around the boys; the rest of the UK is suffering a terrible heat wave. Harry manages to fend off the Dementors, then Mrs Figg shows up. She's a squib; she supports herself as a breeder of cats and kneazles (a magical cat breed) and moved into the neighborhood to keep an eye on Harry's situation (on Dumbledore's request). Muggles cannot see Dementors. When the Dursleys ask Dudley 'Who did this to you?', I don't think he's in clear enough mind to answer or very much understand the question. I think he points to Harry maybe as a way of saying 'Ask him; I have no idea!'. My understanding is that this encounter with the Dementors holds a mirror to Dudley, showing him how horrible his actions have been. He changes afterward. I suggest you look on KZbin (wait until AFTER "The Halfblood Prince") for the deleted scene of Dudley resolving things with Harry. Voldemort's appearance changed. You saw him as a 16yr-old memory, you saw him as a parasite resident in Quirrell's body. He changed. His previous physical incarnations were all normal. Correct; once you're dead, you're dead. Once you cross that threshold, there's no return to corporeal form. That said, Voldemort's body was destroyed when the Killing Curse he aimed at baby Harry rebounded and struck him. But Voldemort had already put in place the means to not die. No; Voldemort did not die. It got very close, but his preparations kept a toe in this world, which was enough for him to make his way back. All will become clear. The Weasley Twins are 17, but about to start their Seventh Year, the final school year. Yes, they're adults, but they haven't finished school yet. As adults, they can quit, but the vast majority of 17yr-olds do complete their schooling. You've seen the film complete already, so I'm just pointing out the reasons now: Harry's had dreams, where he sees what Voldemort sees and thinks and intends. It gets worse in this film. Harry and Voldemort are sharing experiences, sharing thoughts. And at some point, Voldemort will realize it. When he does, Harry becomes an open transmission to Voldemort of everything Harry sees and hears and thinks. There will be no secrets. Harry has to learn how to shield himself, a difficult thing for an immature mind. I believe they are trying to give Harry the time necessary to mature enough for training, for even having the perception of what mind-muscle needs exercising. The dream Harry has on the train to Hogwarts, of Voldemort on the train platform; that's foreshadowing. Voldemort is wearing Draco's clothes... The Shrieking Shack is an isolated outbuilding set on Hogwarts school property. The opening shot is of Hogsmeade; the meeting is being held in a pub run by Aberforth; he's identifiable by the pub, his penchant for wearing kilts, and his deep affinity for goats (which he allows full run of his pub and home). This pub is where the students meet to recruit for training and membership in 'Dumbledore's Army'. When Hermione mentions Cho couldn't take her eyes off Harry, did you see Ginny's reaction? And did you see Ginny hang behind when everyone files out after practice? Neville always had power; he just lacked confidence. Harry's such a good teacher that he was able to instill or find that ember of confidence in Neville and fan it to a roaring blaze. The big problem for Arthur Weasley is that Voldemort's snake Nagini is venomous. The venom destroys the body's ability to clot its blood. And being a magical snake, the result is very serious. Basically, Arthur had 20 minutes before he bled to death, but Harry's warning to others got help to Arthur in time. Still, it was a full month in St Mungo's Hospital before Arthur could go home to finish recuperating, and it was touch and go during that month. There was a generation of Black Family members who were given astronomical names, including Sirius (after the Dog Star of the Constellation Canis Major, the Big Dog). There were three sisters who were cousins of Sirius: -Bellatrix (named after a star in the belt of Orion the Hunter; it translates to 'female warrior'); she had an arranged marriage to Rudolphus Lestrange, but they did not have children. -Narcissa (the feminine of 'Narcissus', a constellation depicting the self-loving character of myth); she had an arranged marriage to Lucius Malfoy and is the mother of Draco. -Andromeda (named after a constellation depicting an ancient queen who dared to compare her daughter's beauty with the Olympian goddesses, which led the pantheon to place her chained to her throne in the heavens); she refused to be wed by arrangement (to keep the bloodline pure) and married the muggle Ted Tonks, giving birth to a daughter Nymphadora Tonks. Even in pureblood families, not all members internalized the racism. Yes, Snape was bullied by James and his crew; they were all in the same Year. And Harry is the spitting image of James. The Weasley Twins decided they'd had enough, that Hogwarts held nothing useful for them anymore. They decide to leave in a manner that makes certain they CAN'T get back in and they leave as LEGENDS! Harry won a big cash prize from the Tri Wizard Tournament, which he couldn't bear to keep, seeing it as 'blood money'. He tried to give it all to Cedric's dad, but he refused it. So, he gave it to the Twins to start their business in Diagon Alley. Every wizard or witch has an innate talent; the Twins' talent was entrepreneurship. Voldemort cannot see the Prophesy at this point; Harry DID learn to shield himself. Unfortunately, Voldemort got off one last transmission, sending a false vision of Sirius's capture and torture. Hermione was correct. There are no 'safeties' on Killing Curses. They kill as quickly and suddenly as guns. You can't have Harry murdering anyone straight out; it forever damages the soul. Snape has been to Order meetings at Sirius's townhouse; Sirius's nickname was 'Padfoot', and the townhouse is 'the place that it's hidden'. Snape first contacted the Order, which is why they showed up to fight the Death Eaters in front of the Death Arch.

I love your hatred for Umbridge... trust we all felt that way about her even with the books

[@ziggystarlord]

The only issue I've with the movies, and not something I thought about until rewatching 15 some years later.. you can only see thestrals (dead horses) after you've seen death... Harry sees them for the first time in this movie, I guess to help explain it, but Harry saw his mom die.. so why couldn't he see them before. been a while since I read the books though.

heads up, the actor who played uncle vernon died...

[@joecrammond6221]

JK Rowling did a great job writing the original book, making Fudge and Umbridge characters we just can't stand to watch, the film did a good job adapting their characters with the actors doing a great job

Your reactions to HP are PHENOMENAL 🎉 i look forward to these!!!

[@angellopolys2494]

Yes, Voldy is really cool. He's my second favorite character after Dumbledore. I really need them to do him justice in the series they are planning. I remember being obsessed with his background story in the books, all the details and everything.

4:14 Dudley is actually pointing at the person who saved him. Not whose fault it is

[@couch.patati-patata]

Voldy did the NYAAAA spell on Dumbledore. The most powerful spell after the AK curse.

Can we have a compilation of everyone's reactions to "HE'S BACK!" already

[@richi6962]

28:43 bro i’m crying STOP lmaoooooo

[@RiseeRee]

Dementors are invisible to Muggles so Dudley actually couldn’t see that they were the ones attacking him.

[@couch.patati-patata]

Miss McG had a similar encounter with a headmaster, in The Prime of Miss Jean Brodie. But in it she wore a pink dress.

[@learntodrivenow]

Where's the Gryffindor's at?!

[@salvadormartinez8577]

LETS GO!! ❤

[@JACOTRA]

Voldemort didn't always look that that no. Remember him in the 2nd movie. It get's explained wtf happened to Tom Riddle don't worry. Also yeah there's no magic that can bring back the dead, but that's different from preventing death...

I saw this in theaters and when Fudge said "He's back!" the whole theater erupted in applause 😂😂

[@urhonykvist8795]

The killing curse works just like a gun. You point and do one little thing. Whit a gun its pull a finger

[@Rcmkney23]

recall 2nd year defense teacher Lockhart specialized in memory charms. memory can be modified, and even a person under truth potion can lie if they think its the truth. so memory viewing and truth serum confessions are not admissible evidence in court
