Harry Potter and the Portrait of What Looked like a Large Pile of Ash - ANIMATION

[@CreeketsCreek]

I especially love how Ron's Ron shirt is there during the whole thing

[@HikariMichi42]

And how it always has his current expression on it! xD

[@CreeketsCreek]

HikariMichi42 Yep XD

[@qoyote]

And how the tall Death Eater's wearing his Hermione Has Forgotten How To Dance shirt way before that line.

[@teffley2766]

Just as bad as Ron himself.

[@Artsqool]

Yes apparently runs Ron shirt was just as bad as Rowan himself

[@lyricbot8513]

I never realised that the story was so consistent before. The AI seems to understand comedy and breaking the 4th wall.

[@PUNCHEDPUNCHEDPUNCHED]

Geo Globe ikr how it has consistency is amazing and makes it better XD

[@verzeda]

Yeah! Ron Magic!

[@eoleopeo6417]

It wasnt just AI, the ai fed groups of words and the people at Botnik who made the Ai would choose which words in order to make a coherent story.

[@Elmithian]

Eoleopeo 64 Yeah... that was a major let down when I checked out the website. I thought the thing had genuinely used a sorts of neural network to make it come out but no... it gives you the option of almost 20 words to insert every step of the way.

[@sofialaya596]

it's for sure a better writter than me

[@aredlogo7815]

Harry had the “Potter Stinks” badges, Ron had the “Weasley is Our King” song, And Hermione now has the “Hermione Has Forgotten How To Dance” shirt.

C Y the perfect example of what visuals can add to a text!

The wondrous power of text and visuals is the real magic.

This is by far the definitive best version.

Ron is my favorite character

Almost (but not quite) rivalled by Harry always facing the wrong way because he decided to tear out his eyes on a whim.

[@chloejec6318]

Ron sounds like 2D

[@Parelf]

@@seongunness608 Tim Burton's I think

[@witch8446]

Me too! It’s messy but it’s also very good-

[@Lugmillord]

This can only be topped by a life action version. Overall, this story made me question who is good and who is bad. The death eaters seemed like honorable people.

[@soulenoid6701]

Lugmillord true, but I'd rather not have to witness Harry tearing his eyes out

[@noaedlund]

yeah, the actual cast doing a rendition of it would be hilarious

[@diemsky8965]

The death eaters had some good bromance going on there.

[@ethanlivemere1162]

Lugmillord Yes, but Voldemort definitely is a very bad and mean wizard.

[@enderblawk5068]

I'd play Harry if that ever happened. I've been told that i look very similar to him

[@andreaulle7960]

Love how one animation is just as goofy as the story, but this animation manages to make it so dark and disturbing

[@christinafrazier1364]

I JUST REALIZED RON IS THE HANDSOME ONE THE CHAPTER TITLE WAS REFFERING TO

"The floor looked like a pile of magic" * Shows a pile of Magic: The Gathering cards * I laughed a bit too long at that, frankly.

[@298yen7]

I paused at that part to see if I recognized any of the art. God I'm a abomination

[@gabrote42]

Same. Paused to see if there was an Emrakul there.

[@miaow8670]

Honestly, the best version of all. The music, the dialogues, the intonation - everything fitting the absurdity of the original text perfectly. "Yeeeah, Ron magic!" xDDDD

[@1classikai]

I freaking love the delivery of Harry’s “Oh boy!” at the end

[@FunnyFany]

"... as he dipped Hermione in hot sauce. 'BEEF WOMEN'" Ok, I cackled.

[@caegray6987]

This version is SO good! It adds so much to the story! It makes it seem almost sensical too! The voice acting is what really makes it I think! And the bad looking death eaters! Man this animation makes it soooooooo much better!

[@3v1lp1ngv1n]

This book is a goddamn masterpiece. I'd buy a whole series written by this ai.

[@daforkgaming3320]

Some of the lines that weren’t from the original text like Ron shouting Ron magic after throwing the stick at Voldemort just work so well

[@smoffjohns2466]

You're an insuppressible talent! With the art, animation, voice acting, sound effects, and original comedy brilliance, you've truly stamped what could have been merely regurgitated with your own unique style. Harry Potter and The Portrait of What Looked Like A Large Pile of Ash is 10x funnier thanks to your efforts.

[@leighte2426]

They say to this day he’s still rolling down the stairs

[@TornaitSuperBird]

Well, he did roll down the stairs for the whole summer.

[@tempolynnrealofficial]

I got a degree at hogwarts. I vividly remember seeing someone screaming and falling down the stairs. He stole my wand on the way down the stairs tho >:C Luckily, it was a trick wand. What is a trick wand you ask? It’s a fake wand, so if anyone stole it... I guess you could say, on Halloween instead of “Trick Or Treat” he asked “Trick or Trick” c;

[@baconsoup8346]

Every summer, Harry Potter rolls down the summer long stairs.

[@ericforsyth]

*Elle Mikayla & Tempolyn!* Was this comment written by an AI?

[@tempolynnrealofficial]

Eric Forsyth yes

[@kuraihikari5785]

That moment with the pig was absolutely beautiful.

[@KindredKeepsake]

That "Girl with a Pearl Earring" portrait at the start will haunt me forever.

[@nope6021]

"Yeeeeaaah! Ron magic!" I love Ron's voice oml.

[@mickodooku6058]

Context made this go from funny to ominous

[@CoachJohnMcGuirk]

Micko Dooko the context is what makes it funny! Although the computer getting confused as to if Hermione was a food item or not multiple times was very strange. I would chalk that up to so many strange magical treats that don't have real world counterparts being so prevalent in the books. It got j.k's writing style spot on though. Like dead on. "Ron's ron shirt was just as bad as Ron himself"

[@mickodooku6058]

Yeah I guess so

[@momololo3223]

OH BOI

[@kevinl-g9759]

Voldemort is the best combo of megamind and one punch man

[@KaichouClips]

The art style really looks like one punch man in some parts, but that just makes it more entertaining

[@ButterflyMusicStudio]

I feel the art goes more with mob psycho 100

[@AgsmaJustAgsma]

The soundtrack is so depressing on its own, but that's what makes this video so good.

[@TheDimensionDweller]

Returning to this after two years and, man, it hasn't gotten any less hilarious. What a great animation. What a weird, weird script.

[@TigirlakaLaserwolf6]

I've seen like 5 versions of this but I think this is my fave.

[@PiGirl13]

Most of my favorite moments were already commented by other people so I'm just going to say I love the fact that one of the books on masonry was authored by Mr. Staircase. Also the visual style and audio of this is 👌

[@lucid_lady6067]

lol That's gotta be my favorite line "The death eaters were dead now, and Harry was hungrier than he had ever been..." Is he going to eat Death now that the Death Eaters aren't? Is he going to eat a spicy Hermoine? Also the added chatter from Ron as he reached for his wand was way too funny

[@livydijoseph5659]

This has a distinctly Monty Python's Flying Circus feel to it.

you actually put sense into it...when i first read it, i thought harry’s ghost was literally harry as a ghost and then some random ghost called mr staircase pops out of nowhere and it was hilarious. but you turned it into harry’s pet ghost, mr staircase 😂

Mister staircase could have been living in the dursley house, considering that Harry used to live under their staircase.

[@olymolly3637]

out of all animated versions, i found yours to be self-interpretative, unique & very artful. you're simply different :D & after reading some of the others' comments, you seem to get the Botnik's story most, i guess, & reinterpret it into a very good visual style & references (edit: literally & not, but that's what makes this version funny & quirky). one more extra step to be taken as a challenge (but totally unnecessary) from this video is to make this video a smoother ride with more animation frames & facial expressions. that'd waste a lot more time & blood & sweat for the animator(s) though. definitely subscribing because you're worth it, Smashiell :) (last edit: bloody hell, the effort you made into making, adding to & editing this whole thing from only ProZD's voice & the source material... wow)
