HARRY POTTER PRISONER OF AZKABAN BREAKDOWN! Easter Eggs You Missed! | Harry Potter Rewatch

[@NewRockstars]

How do you rank the Harry Potter films as films? How do you rank them in terms of adaptation success from the books?

[@vegardyrnes1793]

P O Azkaban 1, and The Half blood Prince n 2! Definitely! I also love the first one!

[@anubusx]

That car bomb joke damn.

[@anubusx]

Chamber Of Secrets is mine.

[@lt.langle]

If the dog was sirius surely the aunt blowing up was also sirius. All other unspoken magic isn't that powerful

[@lt.langle]

Holy crap just realized harry days' die again lily' when he mispronounced diagon ally

[@BerryOfBlu]

Peter Pettigrew did not *choose* to be a rat, in the books they say the animagus don’t choose, and it’s dangerous because you could turn into a fish far from water and die, which is why it’s monitored by the ministry

[@elijahdrake9113]

Yeah they get most knowledgeable things wrong it’s okay!!

[@ObsessiveGeek]

To be fair this is specifically covering the movies which don’t go into detail about if it’s possible to choose what form your animagus takes

[@vinnyl264]

@@ObsessiveGeekthey use the books for other details so really can’t just pick and choose

[@MyTelevision8060]

Which book? I don't remember that.

[@KieranBrooklyn]

This film had a very notable shift in tone, style and stakes. I remember being quite scared by this one when I was very young. The Whomping Willow and Pettigrew always stuck with me

[@xenablossom4682]

Yeah. This movie is where sh*t got real.

[@b3yourself91]

I read that much like patronus, the animal that you change into depends on personality etc

[@xenablossom4682]

@@b3yourself91 That's right. One important example from the books is Tonks's Patronus changing from a jackrabbit to a wolf due to falling in love with Remus.

[@trip478]

Making dementors fly isn't an overstep at all!!! It's an amazing change that makes these creatures bigger threats that's echoed through the rest of the series. Honestly dementors wouldn't be as scary if they ran around vs flying

[@alexp601]

They'd probably look more like the Scream villain running around 😅

[@Fffreakyyy]

You glossed over my favourite line in this movie, after Dumbledore asks Hagrid for a nice cup of tea, or a large brandy: “you’ll find no small glasses in this house”

[@KieranBrooklyn]

Prisoner of Azkaban is the most beautiful looking of the films 🌌

[@thatone24chick]

I have always said this one is the best one, which is funny because it is the only one in which Voldemort doesn’t make an appearance. A testament to Cuaron’s work! 🇲🇽

[@LeonardoKlotz]

Alfonso Cuaron did right leaving this franchise after making only one movie. Usually, when you see a small budget director going from a small budget to a big budget, he usually wants to stay in the big budget territory, sometimes making sequels or similar movies. Cuaron avoided that, and instead used his experience on big budget movies to explore other genres and try different things. I love a director who explores different genres. Is usually what leads to a lasting career.

[@ttmusic5833]

One of the theories I like about why Remus carries chocolate all the time is because chocolate is a poison to dogs. He carries it to try and kill the werewolf part inside him.

[@TakeTheWorld21]

Prisoner of Azkaban is a fan favorite for a reason, this one had it all imo

[@HarlowRisk]

All but most of the book context that was relevant to future books.

[@batmanwholaughs3547]

We all know this is the best Potter movie, right?

[@SPKingX]

Yes

[@IAmThanSolo]

Hallows 2 is my favorite

[@mohd2412]

57:16 A small error here....The time turner was given by Prof. McGonagall not Dumbledore

[@lylearoyii]

And it was "first term" so first year? That's what it sounds like from the dialog dispite it may mean beginning of the school year. It's going to be interpreted and misinterpreted for the rest of existence.

[@xenablossom4682]

I think the students wore everyday clothes beneath their school robes in the books; it even looks like the case based on the book covers. Harry appearing in the Great Hall to confront Snape in the Deathly Hallows Pt. 2 might be an easter egg about this detail. Fun Fact: Harry and Hermione's casual clothes from PoA return in DH Pt. 2 during the Battle of Hogwarts, but with an extra coat over them.

[@k13ffur]

"These killings didn't stop the Weasleys from putting up Mormon numbers." You killed me with that line! I had to pause because I was laughing so hard!

[@puppylover4865]

Lupin’s werewolf form is definitely one of my favorites werewolf designs.

[@ObsessiveGeek]

Really? It’s incredible uninspired compared to every other magical creature

[@aaronbroadwater]

I have always thought it was my least favorite version of a werewolf ever lol

[@chirstialove9409]

PoA is one of my favorite. It's like the transition from childhood into adolescence ❤ and the happy carefree fade away.

[@NoMercy745]

There's another interpretation of "You're going to suffer, but be happy about it" from the text. Harry suffers through that night, finding the true betrayer, Lupin's attack, and the Dementor swarm, twice, but is happy in the end because Sirius asks Harry if he would want to live with him.

[@silverloveguns]

how many times are you going to repeat that Neville’s parents were tortured to the point of insanity 😂

[@master-of-many-fandoms2020]

To be fair, there are people watching this that may have forgotten details. Repeating does help.

[@Convoy00X]

At least 5 more.

[@jeremyjackson5367]

Until you’re insane

[@PunchSuccaa]

Dumbledore living through that night multiple times with his own time turner is an interesting edition to dumbledores big plan

[@Altmetalpunk]

That "I'm gonna kill him" line really showed that Daniel hadn't quite arrived as an actor yet lol

[@He-Man00]

Yeah he sort of struggled with the emotional scenes in those first 4 movies. It looks like he's smiling whenever he's crying

[@aaron-downey]

I think it's the crying around that dialogue that hurts the scene.

[@CJDoggg00]

And the weird lip movement after he said his line lol

[@He-Man00]

@CJDoggg00 I imagine the director was "look furious" and that's the mouth shape Daniel chose

[@Alejandroigarabide]

What is it with mid 2000s movies and awesome werewolf designs? This and Van Helsing had the all-time best werewolves in cinema history, both in design and realism.

[@ObsessiveGeek]

Wut?!! Van Helsingborg is one of the worst movies of all time, the CGI in that was shocking even at the time and has aged incredibly badly. I’m not a fan of the Werewolf design in POA though at least the CGI still holds up well even today

[@skulzer9363]

@@ObsessiveGeek L take, Van Helsing rules.

[@elijahdrake9113]

This film cemented my childhood crush for Emma Watson lmao

[@joshuagorski9452]

Shrunken head = one of the best characters in this film

[@amanda_of_house_dracarys]

I couldn't stand the shrunken head part 🤣😭😭😭 I think because it was one of my favorite books of the series and this movie didn't follow it as closely as the first two movies followed the books.

[@1dareu2mov3]

46:31 The whole 13 dining together thing is also a pretty clear reference to the Last Supper-Jesus and the 12 disciples makes 13, and Judas was the first to rise (Jhn 13:30) and the first to die (Mat 27:5)!

[@limdoo6473]

Lupin probably had chocolate on hand at all times because of the dementor presence at Hogwarts

[@Jarcovancapelleveen]

I think that this movie is a lot of people’s favorite.

[@ObsessiveGeek]

Both movie and book. Well second favourite book, Half-Blood Prince takes the top spot but up until that book was released it was 100% POA

[@barney7822]

2004 was an interesting year And this movie had one of my favorite PS2 games

[@happyslapsgiving5421]

29:30 I like to think that he was a Ravenclaw boy all along, but he was just pranking someone (maybe Trelawney) or he was otherwise busy with some other hijinks that all the students go through but we know nothing about because we focus only on our main group. And the other kids were either playing along or... well... charmed. 😅

[@ToddChristensen27]

Quick correction. You mentioned that wormtail chose to be a rat. You don't get to choose what your animagus form is. You go through the complicated months long process and find out afterward what animal you get to transform into

[@jessicamcelroy7879]

I never realized those were even supposed to be the same shops/wizard. And I JUST rewatched those films this week

[@robertodelosreyes7210]

The best harry potter movie, and yes, it’s because it was directed by Alfonso Cuaron

[@_Banjo_]

i think the real world date thing with Lupin on the train was coincidental. The dates in the book dont make much sense especially when you consider the 1st of september in the books is always a sunday, and the students always start school the next day

[@Handsome_Black]

"The Map.....never lies!" Sirius said it himself. Newt Scamander at Hogwarts in year 3 confirmed!

[@ObsessiveGeek]

I mean he could be visiting as a teacher or just to visit Dumbledore (maybe to make sure Buckbeak isn’t killed)

[@theeverlovableme9121]

It's not unreasonable that Newt would still be around since Dumbledore taught him at Hogwarts and Dumbledore is still around.........

[@sombonTV]

This has become my go-to Saturday thing! Get a hot chocolate & watch these recaps! You all do so much work & it always comes thru. Great job & thank you! Also more animal facts please! Like animatronic Scabbers vs real rat Scabbers. Though I guess the only animals left to follow are Hedwig & Fawkes who isn’t real. Oh & technically Sirius.

[@veo16]

Ah yes. The one where every teenage boy at the time had an Emma Watson awakening.

[@ProdLucio]

🙏🙏🙏

[@moses9647]

Nah that was the fourth one at the ball.

[@owencoles2798]

I agree with all the room of requirements except the third.

[@malmal3003]

That moment when Snape instinctively protects the kids from werewolf Lupin showed me how he actually cared more about the kids than he let on. It's one of my favorite moments in the film, I hope they keep those nuances in the TV series.

[@AnvilPictures]

35:38 the probably did the prank scene after they got the shot they wanted. But just asked to do a safety take and placed the fart machine then. Because it would be pretty hard to get the scene done after the prank.

[@ObsessiveGeek]

I’m sure that’s exactly what happened, pretty much everyone was in on it except Daniel, the full outtake is hilarious as Michael Gambon and Alan Rickman keep the scene going longer by improving. Dumbledore makes a long winded explanation about how dreams allow a person to be completely unaware of their surroundings (implying a sleeper can fart away without feeling embarrassed) while Snape simply saying things like “…yes…quite” as all you hear are farts and you can see Daniel is trying his best not to crack while the scene is filming. RIP to two extraordinary talents who brought entire families joy every year.

[@Zombiesnyder13]

I wish Matt Reeves had called Michael Seresin to work in the sequel of THE BATMAN Seresin did great with the cinematography of this movie and PLANET OF THE APES So his style would've been fitting for the city of Gotham

[@toddbrown4185]

The whole series is amazing, but everything about this film in specific makes it stand out. The cast, the vibe, the updated castle, everything just makes this one so good.

[@brennanbarnes7628]

This was my favorite HP film as well, REALLY wished Cuaron could have stayed for another film or two.

[@FortuneD7]

So about the runes that were used in the movie. The first one is called Pertho and represents power, magic, and mystery. The second rune is called Algiz and represents protection, shield, self-defense

1:00:00 i like to think the memory Harry used was when Lupin telling him "you're more like him than you think..."

[@timrob12]

6:19 - Upon my last viewing I noticed that most of Vernon's lines consist of him yelling: "MARGE!". Which must've been slightly funny/weird for the dubbing sessions into other languages as it would basically be: [Timecode] "(translation of Marge's name)", [Timecode] "(translation of Marge's name)", etc...

[@FitzyyLives]

I'm glad I'm not the only one who thinks about things that must have happened during production

[@timrob12]

@@FitzyyLives I thought about it because I'm from Belgium and watch the movies in Flemish, so after hearing the local actor (Wim Opbrouck) shout out Marge's name multiple times, I can only imagine it must've been a bit a weird dubbing session.

[@_Banjo_]

Its a long journey on the train, having chocolate is normal. Though i would say giving chocolate to someone isnt dementor related, it quite normal to get sugar levels up when someone has fainted

[@Arjay404]

This is also my favorite movie of the series. I think that this movie is what made the series become popular with everyone no matter the age and taste instead of just children and people that read the books.

[@Baby_Weber]

Something I just thought about, regarding Remus always carrying chocolate: He tells Harry chocolate makes you feel better. But as a werewolf, he's part canine and chocolate is known to be toxic to dogs. Remus, in the books, is known later on to be quite apathetic towards the idea of remaining alive. I wonder if this was a "contingency" of sorts for him.

[@justinnip13]

that part about making sure Ron is nowhere near the time maneuver, is so funny and makes so much sense

[@Elohim-i9z]

Newt is alive in the epilogue of Deathly Hallows. Obviously, he's not visiting Hogwarts at night, tho.

[@benoitbibaudbroza]

My favorite ever. Thank you for doing those reviews ❤

[@MasterCrawford343]

I can imagine that the Dementors being stationed around Hogwarts was actual torment for the Dementors, they feed on happiness and warmth and yet they're surrounding a school full of children that is filled with such emotions that it would look like a freaking Smorgasbord to them

[@nancyjay790]

The visuals in this film are so amazing. I think the Dementors really left a feeling of the absolute void of despair those beings evoke within their victims in this film. For me, it was so much more of a punch there, whereas when we saw them in later films, they are similar, but not quite as unearthly and haunting. Maybe that was just me.

[@gary-williams]

The hunchbacked Tom in Prisoner of Azkaban bears a striking resemblance to a hunchbacked wizard creep who approaches Harry in Knockturn Alley in Chamber of Secrets.

[@ethanabben]

Looking back, Fred and George giving Harry the map was extremely wise and mature of those two.

[@LaDracul]

I'm gonna say it, not thrilled that they changed around some characters in this movie. But that's not my biggest gripe with the series.

[@Mariah1hajilE]

LOVE the sally field/mrs. doubtfire shout-out ❤

[@vashkun1]

If I recall correctly harry was indeed attacked by dementors in the book while playing quidditch that's why he lost his nimbus 2000, on his fall the whomping willow destroyed it, when playing against Ravenclaw (I think) it's when Malfoy, Crabbe, goyle and their quidditch captain dressed as Dementors to try to scare Harry

[@Fantropolis]

I agree with what you said about Harry's father. That's dad talk for sure.

[@salsosa3745]

you should also do a fantastic beasts rewatch

[@toddbrown4185]

one (of many) plot holes that could be fixed from the fantastic beast series is Dumbledore's age. Obviously they chose a much younger actor to play Dumbledore in those movies, but an argument could be made that he spent so much time using the time turner that he was aging faster than others. Like maybe he went back in time to attempt to reconcile what happened to him and Grindelwald. This would lead to even more plot holes, but I think Jude Law was one of the best parts of Fantastic Beasts and played a very good Dumbledore.

[@Pearls_Have_Eyes]

this is honestly so much better than rewatching the series

Dementors feed on sadness not happiness and are repelled by happiness. Which is why they are drawn to him

[@SweetSlytherinGirl-Jennifer]

Yay! Love the Super Carlin Brothers!! So cool to see them on here! I really want to see the Slytherins' prank during the Quidditch game and how Harry casts his full corporeal Patronus for the first time! They also need to explore the Crookshanks/Padfoot dynamic.

[@viewhexel9859]

One of my most head scratching parts of this movie is how the Weasleys are going back to Egypt. The book made it clear (in the Chamber of Secrets) that every Weasley had the chance to spend winter break in Egypt. And now they win a lottery and spend the money to go right back? Sorry it isnt a very important thing, just weird they are so set on visiting their son every chance they get.

[@thewinterizzy]

The “did what? 😌” gets me EVERY time, I love it lmao. HP3 is my favorite!! Such a great film/story.
