Our First Time Watching Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 1

[@theirongiant5112]

The whole burying Dobby without magic thing is just like being respectful and putting in the time and effort to truly honor his life and sacrifice. As opposed to using magic to make it easier on themselves and not putting in the time and effort. Overall it’s just a love and respect thing.

[@Syntell]

I like that idea too.

[@melodramatic7904]

@@Syntell The other thing about Dobby is that those of us who read the books had way more time with him than people who only watched the movies. For example, after he became a free elf, he tried to work for other wizarding families but he damanded pay and no one was willing to pay him, so he ended up getting a job at Hogwarts in the kitchens. The whole thing about the kitchens at Hogwarts was cut from the movies. So Dobby actually helped Harry a lot during the Goblet of Fire.

[@lynetteoliva1256]

Hey guys, great reaction. Just to let u know, Alastor "Mad-Eye" Moody's death in the book happened pretty much the same way it happened in the movie. Mad-Eye was killed & Mundungus Fletcher, who was riding w/Moody, disapparated (teleported)out of there. About Dobby, he appears in just about every book after his introduction in Harry Potter & The Chamber of Secrets. He ended up going to work in the kitchen @ Hogwarts. I think it was so he could be close to Harry. He would visit Harry often & gift Harry socks every Christmas. So, yeah, I guess u could say Harry & Dobby were friends. Dobby was the one to get the Gillyweed for Harry from Snapes stores in The Goblet of Fire. He is loved for his kindness, loyalty & always wanting to help & protect Harry. That's why when he died in the book & movie, I cried. @ the end in the book, Dobby had more clothes. I don't know why they kept him in the house elf rags in the movie. I guess it was easier for the CGI. Did u notice the name on the tombstone Hermione brushed the snow off of when Harry & Hermione were in the graveyard @ Godric's Hollow? The name was Peverell which was the last name of the 3 brothers in the story about The Deathly Hallows. It is believed that Harry's invisibility cloak is the one from the story, & that he is descended from that brother. Anyway, again, great reaction guys. See u on the finale.

[@garybassin1651]

The beach where Dobby was buried is a place in Wales. It's become a memorial site and people used to leave socks there. It started to impact the ecosystem so they had to ask people not to leave socks anymore. Now they leave either flowers or small stones.

[@rhiahlMT]

The books went further into Dobby. He had new clothes. Hermione found out Hogwarts had house elves and went on a campaign for elf rights. Sirius had a larger role in the books also. The movies did a good job but the books had a lot of things going on that weren't in the movies. Time constraints of course. Stephen King was asked about the scariest villain he'd ever seen and he said "Dolores Umbridge".

[@prathapkutty7407]

Did Stephen King really say that?

[@rhiahlMT]

@@prathapkutty7407 From the article I read, he did.

[@rhiahlMT]

This isn't the original article but it gives the gist. Dolores Umbridge takes the accolade of being noted as "the greatest make-believe villain to come along since Hannibal Lecter." The words of high praise came from King's review for Entertainment Weekly regarding the fifth book installment, Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix. His answer came in response to the question, "What’s the best thing about Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix?" In no uncertain terms, King highlighted that "The gently smiling Dolores Umbridge, with her girlish voice, toadlike face, and clutching, stubby fingers, is the greatest make-believe villain to come along since Hannibal Lecter." It's certainly a bold statement, but one that is completely justified. King went on to explain that most people will recall a teacher that they feared so much that they dreaded the journey to school, and Dolores wholly fits the bill. The Defence Against the Dark Arts teacher filtered into the narrative with a looming doom that students couldn't escape. Dolores' nefarious acts put her on par with Death Eaters. She was discriminatory towards muggles and half-bloods, but her wickedness wasn't reserved only for them. She behaved appallingly to her family and to any other students that she wanted to punish. King's description of her as "the gently smiling Dolores Umbridge, with her girlish voice" is attributed to what made her so fearsome. At first glance, her fairly innocent, well-kempt appearance could fool anyone into believing that she might be a kind individual. People may initially feel at ease before her despicable personality would be revealed, and she was able to catch others off-guard.

[@malalaz66]

In the book, Dobby plays a HUGE roll in Harry’s life. His role is so much smaller in the movies. Still heart breaking when he dies. Dobby saves him multiple times in books 4 and 5. In book 6 he spies on Malloy for Harry (he works at Hogwarts starting in book 4 I believe) so many times he helps Harry. I cried when he died. In the books, you get to hear Kreachure’s story which is heartbreaking.

[@LaurinGarcia]

The reason Kreacher was acting differently towards Harry than he did to Hermione is because Sirius not only left Grimauld Place (the former headquarters of the Order of the Phoenix) to Harry in a will but Harry also inherited Kreacher as well. As a result Kreacher is magically bound to obey Harry. Harry never freed Kreacher because Dumbledore asked Harry not to due to Kreacher knowing way to much about The Order of the Phoenix secret group. When Harry found out about Regelus Black being R.A.B Kreacher told Harry about how Regelus use to be a Deatheater during the first war. But one day Regelus found out that Voldemort was using his favorite house elf to experiment on when he was creating the evil magical defenses in the cave where the Slytherin locket was originally located. When Kreacher told Harry about how he was tortured by Voldemort and how Regelus sacrifice himself to save Kreacher, Harry felt sorry for Kreacher to the point that he gifted Kreacher the fake Slytherin locket that use to belong to Regelus. From that moment on Kreacher changed his attitude not only towards Harry but he began to be kind to Hermione and Ron as well. 📿🪄

[@elizabethbarringtonthealia911]

Hey there, you two! Love your reactions! In the book, just about all of the characters were more established, and Dobby did actually come to be a friend of the trio. (He hung around at Hogwarts and had trouble finding a paid job as a free elf while Hermione was very focused on the cause of freeing all elves, including those at Hogwarts. She knitted a ton of hats and left them everywhere around the kitchens and such but the elves all avoided them aside from Dobby. He collected them all and wore them as a massive stack on his head.) And the elves were actually pretty powerful, but they and every other magical creature out there were seen as less by the elitist wizards. Those wizards pretty much used their wands/magic to uphold that view, so Harry treating Dobby as an equal and burying him without magic was sort of seen as a mark of who he was and what he stood for which was very different from the Ministry and Voldemort.

[@Syntell]

I like the idea of putting real effort into burying your loved one rather than simply waving your wand. That type of effort gives you a unique opportunity to sit with your thoughts and grieve.

[@h0rr0rshow]

Splinched (where Ron got hurt) is where the portal closes when you are in both places at once. Like a door slamming on your arm before you can get through.

[@kk_sj3635]

Yeah Dobby was in the books more than Mad Eye. Dobby also helped them with a lot of other things too. When he got a job at Hogwarts (and he was being paid properly), he pretty much hung out in Harry's dorm. The gang even helped out with Dobby's girlfriend and stuff. Those are some of the things I remembered but yeah, he was a constant character.

[@psychedelicpegasus7587]

Dobby took up the task of cleaning Gryffindor tower because the other house elves at Hogwarts wanted to avoid finding one of the hats Hermione knitted and hid in the common room to set them free. Winky the house elf wasn't Dobbie's girlfriend.

[@VonOutlaw]

In the books Hermione explains that her parents as always wanted to go to australia, so she erased their memories of her and of Harry and Ron and everything about the Wizarding World and sent them to australia. She then says that she hopes that after the war she'll be able to find them and restore their memories but if not they will live their lives nice and happy and safe.

[@fabmothernature7324]

In the books Dobby watched over Harry in Chamber of Secrets…He was the Malfoy’s house elf and risked punishment/ death to warn Harry about their plan. He also helped him win the second task in Goblet of Fire and visited him when he had no other friends ( besides Hermione). Dobby was a great friend to Harry.

[@AndreMoore1978]

Wait until y'all read the books. Dobby had SPECIAL sense of style. Our first impression is Dobby going to extremes to keep Harry out of harms way. Once we learn his true intentions, we can't say anything bad about our dawg Dobby! 👊🏾👊🏾👊🏾

[@cariann2220]

The books dobby is in so many more of them, possibly even all of them after the 2nd and yes they were friends. He got a job at hogwarts and he worked there, Hermione made clothes to try to free the elves in hogwarts and they didn't want to be free so dobby was the only one taking them and he took them all tons of nitted hats and socks. Dobby helped harry get the gillyweed instead of Neville although I do like that Neville helped in the movie because it showed how much he loved herbology. Dobby was a hero and I loved his send off in the movie when I finally read it though it felt way more painful and long, a lot of thoughts while harry dug the hole for dobby. He was such a unique elf because he wanted to be free, it made him special.

[@Syntell]

You could sense that there was more to that relationship. If felt like more of a homage to the book readers than that movie watchers.

[@NYSweetEPie]

Exactly. To further elaborate, house elves, in general, played a bigger part at Hogwarts. In Prisoner of Azkaban, you find out that house eleves work in the kitchen and sent the food up to the tables. One particular house elf, Winky played a significant role in Globlet of Fire.

Voldemort is still not happy with Lucius for failing to get the prophecy. That's why he took Lucius' wand. 7:58 Dragon fire actually. Dobby was in all of the books except 1&3. Book readers got to see him and get to know him a lot better. I think Harry wanted to bury Dobby without magic because he felt Dobby deserved the extra effort and recognition after the life he'd lived and saving their lives.

I think he also wanted to work out his grief through sweat in the books it was such a great side of Harry to see.

The movies made Hermione OP (overpowered) and made Ron the comic relief, especially in the early movies. They gave her some of the things Ron and other characters did in the books. She for sure is the most 'book smart' and the best at the most magic, but Ron was also just naturally a good wizard with being the only with an actual wizarding family. Harry obviously is the most clutch and a natural when it comes to dangerous situations.

@@Syntell I understand translating a book to movie would require some changes but they straight up omitted important information.

The reason why Harry wanted to dig his grave without magic, wasn't because he couldn't but because he wanted to show Dobby one of his friends that he loved who passed away the respect in which he deserved. He wanted to feel the pain and the discomfort that would come from having to dig it himself to show more respect to his friend that he loved the passed away saving his friends. He also is treating him as an equal, and not a slave or a servant like other witches and wizards would.

Dobby's death is tragic in the books because we spend way more time with him. After the events of chamber of secrets Dobby is without a job and no one would hire him for money. But one day we find out that Dumbledore has agreed to hire Dobby to work in Hogwarts kitchen to work with other Hogwarts house elves. In Goblet of Fire book, it is Dobby who gives Harry the gillyweed rather than Neville. Also, during the same year Hermoine starts her own club called S.P.E.W. (Society for Protection of Elfish Welfare) to help free all the house elves (since house elfs = slave). As a gesture to help free all the house elfs Hermoine knits multiple hats and leave them all around the Griffindor common room. But one day the trio sees Dobby wearing tens of hats one on top of the other. It is then Dobby explains that not all elves want to be free and they love working for their wizard family (or Hogwarts for that matter). 37:32 Excuse me? You should watch both parts 1 and 2 together.

His overall gratitude for something as simple as a sock and what it meant to him as a house elf.

luna was far more involved in the books. her neville and ginny are often called the silver trio (harry ron hermione the golden trio). she was actually introduced in book4 i think and is in ginny's year. one of my favourite parts of the last book is when the golden trio visits her house and see her room and she has a sort of a Muriel of harry ron hermione ginny and neville appreciating their friendship like its so beautiful!! another hilarious scene that comes to mind is luna commentating during a quidditch match (i dont remember which book) in her drawling voice and disinterested comments. plus her and hermione fighting over random stuff was always so fun to read about too (luna being head in the clouds imaginative type and believing in all sorts of wild things and theories while hermione being hard headed and narrow minded only following facts) also this is a personal thing but despite me being a hardcore romione stan, if i had to choose another ship i would totally say ron and luna cause they kinda cute

So explaining details in coments to some things it feels to be in vain, why everytime dobby comes u try to do jokes i get it first time u see him as elf which is not up to what we have been told or saw elves as, but everytime???..... u dont get that character arc. it feels i wasted my 50min 😐😐

In the books, Dobby had a much bigger role. He came back to Hogwarts in the Goblet of fire book, where he was unale to find any job for chosing to be free and nobody was willing to pay an elf money in exchange for his services. For this reason, he came back to Hogwarts and was hired by Dumbledore to work in the kitchens for a galleon a week with a day off each month, also he was also the one to provide Harry with the "Gillyweed", not Neville as per the books. Further, he was also a good friend to another elf Winky who became alcoholic after she was wrongly asked to leave her last master. Further, he also made sure to send Harry gifts every Christmas which were usually socks as it was very special to him because it was a sock which led to him being free. He also helped Harry spy on Draco in the book Half-blood Prince book along with Kreacher when Harry was sure Draco was planning something. His story was very well written in the books and was butchered by the movies. For this reason, those who have read the books were very sad when Dobby died.

[@VonOutlaw]

When it comes to the whole horcrux thing there's a bit of confusion at times. Basically the what happened is Voldemort split his soul a total of eight times, but only seven of them were put into a horcrux, the 8th one is prime Voldemort

Spoiler alert, kind of. People are mostly confused with there being 7 horcruxes. He wanted to split his soul into 7 parts. Meaning, there are 6 objects and Voldemort himself. 7 parts of his soul, 7 horcruxes. Horcrux number eight was a complete surprise, even for him.

[@curvydva]

They didn’t wake up Hermione because it had to be Ron who destroyed it; he was the one most affected by the Horcrux. Also, in terms of story pacing, you saw her reaction to his return, if they take time to go back to the tent, wake her, destroy the locket THEN circle back to her fussing at him, all the emotional weight disappears and she just seems like a nag considering what they just faced. Her extreme reaction (asking for her wand) happens BEFORE she learns he destroyed it and it’s purely about him being back and feeling like he shouldn’t have left in the first place. The more info she learns the more she calms down. If they wake her up, she never gets to truly express herself. Also, Horcruxes aren’t inherently physically dangerous, they just take measures to defend themselves like dodging something that could destroy it. They weren’t in REAL danger because there was nothing there for it to take control of that could harm them, just play mind games. Luna is still in this movie because her father has a news paper that was the only one speaking out against Voldemort, the Death Eaters and their crimes against muggles. They kidnapped Luna to get him to stop and also to potentially lure Harry into rescuing her.

[@pFoz]

Yeah, dobby had more presence in the books, as well as kreacher. There's a chapter on kreacher's tale with rab that gave me goosebumps. It was too bad they couldn't work that into the movie.

[@VonOutlaw]

I don't know how to spell out the spell that allows you to cause a wand to regurgitate its last spell that it performed. We do those see it in the book being done in the fourth one Goblet of Fire when Harry's wand was stolen, and the dark mark was put up into the sky at the Quidditch match. They found that it was Harry's wand that was used but Harry's wand was stolen from him while he was watching the match, which he didn't know at the time.

[@EdgarPina-dn4hc]

WHY ARE LAUGHING ABOUT DOBBY?????????

[@VonOutlaw]

So with Dobby we see in the 4th book he's the one that gives Harry the gillyweed so that way he can swim underneath the water. He is also the one that helps Harry find the room of requirement which they used to make Dumbledore's Army in the fifth book. Dobby started working at Hogwarts in book 4, he was the only paid house elf there. We see him exchanging gifts with both Ron and Harry over the years. And we also see him dress up in some funny clothing. This however is all in the book unfortunately and was not shown in the movie. I'm also leaving out some other good moments but just from this alone you can see why there is a large fan base that loves Dobby. #RIPDobby

[@VonOutlaw]

The Deathly Hallows story where it talks about the invisibility cloak that's not Harry's grandfather. However it is one of his great great great great great great great great great great grandfather's. That might be a couple too many greats but his father was related by Blood the peverell Brothers

[@Persewna4]

So, Dobby's role was completely cut out of multiple movies where he interacted with the trio and their circle. It started with Goblet of Fire, where Dobby got a job at Hogwarts, as, once we he was freed, Dobby started asking for wages and wizard families weren't willing to pay him for, y'know, doing work. He also did start wearing clothes - a huge disservice done to him in this film that he was still wearing his dirty old pillowcase. There was a whole subplot in GoF where Hermione, inspired by Dobby's embrace of his status as a free elf, and learning that Hogwarts had a whole crew of unpaid, unfreed, house elves working for the school (all those magnificent Great Hall feasts? Not magic, made by house elves working the kitchens) tried to encourage the other house elves to seek freedom and follow Dobby's example. It did not go well... Hermione eventually started trying to "trick" the house elves into freedom by leaving hats or socks around the common room, so they would accidentally free themselves when they came to tidy up. This resulted in Dobby being the only house elf willing to go to thr Gryffindor dorms. He kept every one of Hermione's hats (she had handmade them) and socks, which were Dobby's favorite article of clothing for obvious reasons. He even made a pair of socks for Harry as a Christmas gift that year, which made Harry feel all kinds of awkward about, but he wore the socks nonetheless, because it made Dobby happy to have the means to give Harry a gift. Also in GoF, it was Dobby, not Neville, who gave Harry the gillyweed for the second task. In OotP, Dobby was the one who told Harry about the Room of Requirement, when they were looking for a place to hold their secret lessons. I think these omissions from the plot in previous movies is why more time is spent on Dobby's death here, almost like an "oops, we should have been building the connections with this character before, but we still want movie-only viewers to feel this moment the way book readers do". A lot of characters were done dirty by the movies versus their development in the books. You can only include so much, but some choices were especially egregious. I agree that I wish we had gotten more for Luna too, she's my favorite, and her actress completely nails her too.

The people that were attacking Harry and all the other people that were looking like Harry do the Polyjuice Potion or Death Eaters. One of them was Severus Snape

[@Micoke12]

Totally agree, this one was a bit slow. And in general, made me realize that the secret sauce of Harry Potter is Hogwarts! Loved the character development and high stakes in this one, but I missed the school setting. For whatever this one's faults are though, they MORE than make up for it in the next film. Get ready for an action packed conclusion! One of the best films in the series! In the next video, would love if you could give a ranking of all 8 films. PS - Also felt the same about Dobby, and I read the books, lol. I am in the minority though, most book readers were VERY invested in Dobby. I felt a little sad when he died, but didn't feel it was a strong enough dramatic note to end on. But some people were moved to tears.

[@dabosssman7027]

As soon as Syntell finally likes dobby they took him away 😂🥲

[@MultiGreenG]

Bellatrix is my favorite HP villain.

[@ReginaPhilangy]

Nope the middle of the seventh book is sssslllllooooowwww too. You do spend more time learning about Dumbledore's life and get to know him as a more complex and complete person. But it really was them camping and moving around and not knowing what to do next for a good chunk of that book.

Nymphadora was pregnant

[@flugsven]

Hermione need someone to make her laugh. See, we laugh With book Ron, but At movie Ron. There's an important difference. Dobby were present in all the books, from book four, and he Really helped Harry out on a few occasions, so there's a pretty strong bond between them.

[@malalaz66]

The last one is amazing for me, except for the end of the battle of Hogwarts. The book ending is SOOOO much better.

[@RedTought]

After 7 movies don't know even the basic characters is....

[@VonOutlaw]

When meningitis fled that's what caused mad-eye death

[@Lynn7015hb]

I did not read the books and I was not that attached to Dobby. I found him somewhat annoying . I was surprised he got more attention in death than some of the others in the series. I read some of the comments here though that do explain he was much more present in the books.

[@hlfbldprincess]

Dobby had a much bigger part in the books though. So we have more time to care about him and kind of forgive him for trying to “save” Harry in all the wrong ways.

[@marzh5278]

Dobby is free elf 💔😭

[@Syntell]

He's got his papers and everything 🤣😂

[@leav4g]

Horcrux. 1. Book destroyed by basilisk tooth 2. Ring --Dumbledore destroyed 3. Locket-destroyed by Ron. Only ones movie has revealed as of your viewing.😂❤x

[@psychedelicpegasus7587]

*Harry destroyed the diary with a basilica fang.

[@leav4g]

@@psychedelicpegasus7587 yes thanks. I was typing and sword came in my head.🤪

[@chwistofa]

Yeah I was destroyed when Dobbie died even only seeing the movie, probably mostly cause of how Harry was losing everyone I think.

[@milanbansriar8396]

Naahhh I'm done watching this reaction after they laughed at dobbys deattth

[@lilbrownbear]

nah im glad someone else said they dont like dobby cause i feel validated. I've read the book multiple times but dobby never really grew on me all that much. like i dont hate him but i really dont get the hype around him. like claire said his death is sad and i feel for harry and understand his connection with dobby but i realllyyyy dont jump up with joy when he shows up on screen. hedwig's death is far more sad to me.

[@poulamimukherjee4787]

Don’t take it in a bad way but I kinda feel you are not really invested in the series. I don’t know if you are even reading all the comments. You keep missing important words, like you reacted to mad eye as if you heard it for the first time, that’s literally what he is called back in the 4th movie. A lot of invested potter fans are watching your reactions and it’s a bit frustrating when you keep missing plot points. Like if you read all the comments you will know that people are explaining what’s there in books.

[@anand201997]

+1 (same things i quoted, if u find please read)

[@poulamimukherjee4787]

@@anand201997 ya really! They keep talking in between dialogues, don’t register names, they missed the whole of 5th movie and watched 6th and dint even bat an eyelid when bellatrix screamt I killed Sirius black, like they dint watch Sirius die and dint even question it. Even while all the action is happening their worry is why isn’t Dobby wearing cloths. Looking at all the weasleys they go oh my god so many weasleys??? What the actual fuck, it’s been 7 movies and you don’t know that there are 7 Weasleys. Well even if you dint know it’s 7, you still know it’s quite a bit right, there are literally 5 in kings cross in the first movie. It’s annoying really. I have seen other reaction channels going deeper into comments and fan theories and actually replying to comments. You know how Harry Potter fans would literally explain everything that’s not in the movies and but in books, and other reaction channels would actually acknowledge them and talk about it in their reactions later. I am not saying that’s the benchmark, it’s possible that they don’t like the series as much or something, but atleast put some effort. This is lazy.

[@anand201997]

the very thing which makes me sigh😩 so much is that they said "green light" bro u r in the 7th movie and not even know 'Avada Kedavra' wowww. and its not dark yet i mean bro cedric died,sirus dies, his parents died, the greatest wizard of all time died, dobby died, Alastor moody died and still it feels to them a late night comedy show 👏👏@@poulamimukherjee4787

[@IamOksamytna]

Very uncomfortable reaction

[@georgeharrison5362]

They are giving you the story...meanwhile you are talking over it to each other. Ho hum...

[@UnnLykley]

[@ashleyrenee5387]

I highly recommend you both read the books. I personally would love book review videos from you on how you would compare them with the movies. There is SO much more that happens in the books. No spoilers, but Dobby plays a bigger part in the story. In fact, house elves in general play a bigger role in several of the books. Also, the movies do Ron a disservice, in my opinion. Both he and Hermione’s personalities are slightly changed for the movies.

[@heidispencer3639]

Hard agree about Ron. In the books he was my favorite character. He was smarter and more intuitive in the books regarding the wizarding world. In the movies they make him just the comic relief.
