It was "Tom Gus (straight-up made up) Mervolo (not Marvolo) Dolder" in Swedish (bearing in mind the Swedish version kept many translations to a minimal, leaving many original words in, like Hogwarts for example) and "I am Lord Voldemort" was changed to "Ego Sum Lord Voldemort" (I am Lord Voldemort in Latin) to fit with that lol

[@kerp0864]

This is so true!! And I’m still not over the fact Harry the fan boy didn’t name one of his kids after her. Like she was basically a mother figure to him. She got him his first broom, was always looking out for him, showed genuine care for him. And it really sucks that Harry didn’t acknowledge that.

[@lainiwakura1776]

Chris Columbus was the only director who made the correct calls on casting and even got everyone to look as close as possible as the book descriptions as well. All the other directors screwed up on that account (neither Sirius or Bellatrix look like their book counterparts and don't even look related, never mind Narcissa and her skunk hair and HBC was way too over the top with Bellatrix).

He also deflects the spells into the other Deatheaters, and then takes their wands as he flees. Really nice touch I thought.

[@Shadow-In-The-East]

Fun (?) Fact: The reason that Crabbe is not in the final film and was completely replaced by a different actor and character (Blaise Zabini, another Slytherin), is because the actor that plays Crabbe that did the cameo in this video (Jamie Waylett) was actually fired from the role after being convicted for growing marijuana in his family's house, possession of a knife, and later that same year he was arrested and found guilty of violent disorder during the London Riots. He was pictured "holding a petrol bomb" and "swigging from a stolen bottle of champagne" and ultimately received a two year sentence for violent disorder and 12 months for handling stolen goods.

There’s a explaination as to why Dumbledore dropped Harry off at the dursleys despite them knowing that they”ll probably treat him horribly. In the books it’s explained that Lily’s Protection that managed to save Harry extends to Petuinia due to their blood relation. This is important cause in goblet of fire when Voldemort rebirths using Harry’s blood, The protection Harry has on HIM becomes useless so the house or wherever petunia is, acts like the only other layer of Protection Harry has (until he’s 17 anyways)

Ron’s problems in the movies are mostly faults made by the directors. In the books his relationship with Hermoine was a lot better and he was a lot smarter and braver. Some things in the books that he said were given to hermoine as well, like he knew about the Devil’s snare in the first movie, he gave the exposition on what a mudblood is in the book because hermoine was actually confused by it and didn’t know what it meant, and he said “if you want to kill Harry, you’ll have to kill us!” In the prisoner of askaban book.

1:17:00 - The whole "why did they have a members list" segment. I don't remember if they touched on it in the movie, but the reason the list exists is because Hermione cursed the *shit* out of it, so anyone who signs up to be a member of the D.A. can't betray the others without consequence. I can't remember exactly what she did to it, tho- I think it was cursed to make a traitor break out in boils spelling out the word "SNEAK"? It was all very scarlet letter of her. Also- to answer any "Why didn't Voldemort" question or point you bring up- It is 100% canon that Voldemort is dramatic as fuck and doesn't do shit unless it has specific meaning to him. Would it be safer to turn a grain of sand into a horcrux and toss it onto a beach? 100%. But its not *nearly* as angsty, edgy, or cool as sticking it in a cursed locket in a cave from his childhood.

It's explained at the end of the books that his mum sacrificing herself to save him left basically a ward of protection on him, that would remain until 18. Since his aunt was related to his mother, it was strongest when he was with her, that's why dumbledore sends him to live with the Dursleys. To protect him. Voldemort is able to touch harry from the 4th movie onwards because they put Harry's blood into Voldemort himself, so that the barrier no longer protects him from him.

Thank you! At 1:07:23 I've been waiting so long for someone to mention this. They could have taken less than a minute of screen time to explain this "rule" the way they did in the books. I believe it's in Book 5 one of the professors tells the students that up until this year they've been taught to say the spell out loud to get the desired result from their wand. But once the connection between wand and wizard/witch becomes more or less fixed, you only have to "think" the spell and your wand will perform the rest. This is why none of the adult characters need to speak their spells. The only reason a spell is spoken out loud in the films is so the audience can understand what is supposed to happen. But it makes sense for more experienced wizards/witches to simply do the spell without the fanfare.

[@LPChipi]

I'd argue the films are pretty mixed cinematographically. The first two by Chris Columbus are wholesome and cute. They're not amazing, but they do what they need to do very well. The third one by Alfonso Cuaron is actually really pretty. it's easily the best looking film of the lot. The fourth one by Mike Newell is pretty whatever. It's pretty boring visually, but it isn't plagued by the dark greens of the later movies. The final four by David Yates are really mediocre. I don't like how any of them look or are paced. I think some of the editing choices in these movies are genuinely baffling. Someone needs to hire a new Colorist and teach them that black, dark blue, and dark green aren't the only colours. I do agree with you on casting though. Even when the main three struggle at times, I think most of the actors do a pretty solid job save some side characters.

Her dad on the other hand wasn’t doing so good. In fact after the divorce he was laid off and then became a cleaning man at the ministry.

Harry asked about this specifically as to why Voldemort wont make a horcrux out of an old can or something. And Dumbledore said that in theory he could, but that he wont for very sentimental reasons. Voldemort was a trophy-hunter, so he made horcruxes out of things that are very valuable to him personally (diary, snake), or have massive value as a magical item (he made a horcrux out of one of the deathly hallows). obviously he could have ensured his immortality by creating one horcrux being literally unfindable, but he thought of himself as the most proficient wizard of all times and didnt really think anybody would even know that horcruxes existed, let alone know what they are, where they are, and beat all the traps. so why split his soul and put it into a rock, when in his mind, there was 0 % chance anyone would destroy his horcruxes anyway? this is a sort of Sauron situation. why didnt he have guard by the volcano? well, in his mind, he never imagined anyone would try to destroy the ring. he thought that anyone would just use the ring to gain more power. this was his weakness and ultimately his undoing. just like Voldy's

@@escalatingbarbarism5096 yes actually I have snarky. She did an interview w Daniel Radcliffe when he was yng for the movie and she seemed pretty stiff and judgy. (It didn't impact my love for the books or fans tho. Also im 35 i was 12 when the first book came out)

[@armythecat]

Still going through this and it and about Dobby loving Harry so much, it is implied that Draco talks a LOT about Harry to Dobby, but also kinda accidentally confides his insecurites to the elf knowing that he can't be betrayed. I am pretty sure Draco cares a lot about Harry and kinda considers him someone he wanna be friends with but he feels pressured by his peers and family to act like he hates Harry, which is kinda sad Edit: Also more about Dobby but I am pretty sure that as an elf for the Malfoy family the only way he can help Harry is by doing things that would be bad to Harry, since the Malfoys would definitely not let him do anything explicitly positive

[@DerPlaystationZocker]

He also probably overheard some plans Lucius Malfoy had, he had the Diary of Tom Riddle and dropped it into Jeanny's Bag at the Beginning of the Movie

[@sammyrockwell3377]

In book one, Draco tried to befriend Harry, but Harry disliked his smugness and attitude. Draco was so deeply offended, he treated him as an enemy from that moment on.

[@lordsauron1692]

1:03:50 it was actually Moody who cursed Krumm. It was foreshadowed earlier in the movie when Moody gave his lesson about the three unforgivable curses. He did it to ensure Krumm would knock out everyone besides Harry, so Harry would be the first to touch the trophy

[@taragirsch4374]

Once Lupin transforms into a werewolf he forgets himself after the first howl. At least thats what I interpreted. Thats why hermione was asking if he was still in there. Also she probably knows Lupin has been taking a potion given by snape for him to be able to transform and not forget who he is so he doesnt go on a rampage. Edit: You can even hear Serious ask him have you taken your potion tonight? As he was transforming

[@GabrielRamkumar42069]

I agree (≧▽≦)

[@kieranleehamilton]

For anyone wondering, Viktor Krum didn’t have his mind warped by the maze, it’s poorly communicated in the film but in the book we learn that Barty Crouch Jr, disguised as Mad-Eye Moody, used the Imperius curse on Krum. He did this in order to eliminate the other contestants, to ensure Harry would be the one to reach the cup.

[@jekkordie]

Just about to comment. But I will not say it is badly communicated. It is well hinted to in his introductions of the curses, without saying it out loud. Love this, makes the viewer feel «smart» for connecting it!

[@kiaradietze9836]

@@jekkordie In the clip played in this video not long after this scene was shown it also replays Harry realizing that Mad Eye/Barty Jr had bewitched Krum. It's not super obvious that it's the Imperius curse but it is directly said that Mad Eye/Barty Jr was the one behind it. I didn't get this when I was younger because I hadn't read the book by the time I watched that movie so I was like oh he must just be blind or something and that's why he didn't see Harry literally right in front of him? But I rewatched the forth movie literally the other day and I was like "ah".

1:10:30 Actually I remember this from the books. The more skilled you are at spellcasting, the less you have to do. One of the challenges in the later books for the kids to really exemplify themselves was being able to cast magic without saying the name, because it would make it way harder for an opponent to know what you're doing.

The final couple thing actually makes sense in the books. Book Ron isn't academically gifted either, but he's way more knowledgeable about wizard world and has the best street smarts of the group. Him and book Hermione have more chemistry than her and the blank page that is book Harry. The movies are pretty good as their own thing, but the further you go the less the character resemble their source and their relationships do not take that into consideration.

My favorite are the bloopers like the part where the students were supposed to be asleep as Dumbledoor and Snape are talking to each other and even though it’s supposed to be serious someone put a fart machine inside the actor for Harry’s sleeping bag and played the fart noises as the actors for Dumbledoor and Snape are trying their best to not smile or laugh but you can tell it’s very hard for them

I feel like a lot of your questions can be answered with "the books explained it better." The problem of converting novels into movies is that you go from a medium that can afford to explain it to you at a leisurely pace, to one that has to cram everything into a two hour time limit. Things get cut out, and when dealing with the fantasy genre like this a level of suspending your disbelief is somewhat mandatory.

They visit Mr. Weasley in St. Mungo's hospital after he is attacked by Nagini in the Order of the Phoenix, and they run into Neville and his grandma while they're there. It's a very sad scene, but it's also sweet how Neville cares for his parents. He's not embarrassed by them, but he doesn't want other people to laugh at them or anything. He's being protective.
