@@thattopbloke4304 already have but the star wars sequel trilogy was pure trash they destroyed and ruined my favorite charecters from the ot and the directors that directed the sequel trilogy seem to hate the past 6 films
@@thattopbloke4304 luke skywalker would never say its time for the jedi to die its time for the jedi order to end dont beileve mark hamill was on set telling rian to change that scene and refused shows how shitty of a director he is
One of the disaponting omissions from the 3 book was at the end Harry receives a letter from Sirius saying he can go to Hogsmed and that's all where Harry learns who sent the firebolt
@@Gurra88 It was a good adaptation, but ofc they had to remove stuff. I read the book non-stop in like 10 hrs. That couldnt be done in a movie. Goblet of the fire is the worst adaptation in my opinion
@@victor1998-swe nope half blood Prince is the worst adaptation in terms of adapting the story. They omitted all the important memories of Voldemort and added unnecessary non-canon stuffs. Although i must say they got the tone and music right.
I wouldn’t go that far but a season per book would be awesome to make a limited series of 7 seasons with 8 hour long episodes for each season, with a series finale of 2 hours min. ;) perfect! And I’d vote Nick Frost in for Hagrid!!❤️
But in the future. The movies are too recent, and the way they are making book adaptations to series nowdays sucks. It woul be very important to place the action in the 90's as in the books.
I was always mad that the movies left out the explanation for why Harry has to stay at the Dursleys every summer. When Harry's mother died, a protection charm was placed over Harry, but it only works when he's living under the roof of a blood relative. Since Petunia is Lily's sister, the charm works as long as he's under the Dursleys' roof. The scene where she changes her mind about kicking out Harry in Order of the Phoenix is because Dumbledore sends a letter to her reminding her of the charm. The Dursleys may be terrible people, but not even Petunia wanted to see Harry killed. It's also disappointing that the movies never explained that Petunia wanted to go to Hogwarts too and when she found out she couldn't because she was a Muggle, she became bitter about it.
@@amwfan88 it was in the books. The build up romance of Harry and Ginny. Ron and Ginny actually made the quidditch team in movie 5 not 6. The fallout between Percy and the other Weasleys and how he redemmed himself in last book. Fred actually amazed Percy was joking and then suddenly died and Percy covered his body fr DEaters as he mourned. How Kreacher turned clean and loyal to Harry after giving the fake locket made by Regulus. The house elves in Hogwarts where dobby and the rest work and clean and then Kreacher led them to fight in the last boom. Ron and Hermiones first kiss makeout was in front of Harry when Ron tried to protect the house elves for her SPEW. Harry had to break them up saying theyre curr at war 😄
@@kaycee.does.utube7779 Yeah, but I'm unclear as to what your comment has to do with mine. I know it was in the books, but my comment was on the biggest omission from the movies. I've read all the books.
Some other noticeable ones: - Barty Crouch Jr. getting the Dementor's Kiss, thus destroying the only testimony (other than Harry's) about Voldemort's return. - Umbridge revealing she was the one who sent the Dementors to attack Harry. - The full backstory behind Marvolo's ring, Hufflepuff's cup and Slytherin's locket and how Voldemort got them to make them horcruxes.
Some people also thought that Ginny cheated on Dean when she kissed Harry, but it was made clear in the book that she broke up with Dean. It was also stated in the first film that Snape is one of the teachers protecting the stone, but his defensive method, the potions, was never shown in the film. Also, that eye effect on wizards under the imperius curse contradicts the difficulty of spotting the liars among those who claimed to be under the imperius curse. It's also unfortunate that the full story of RAB (Regulus Arturus Black) wasn't shown in the 7th film. It's also revealed later in the 5th book that it was Umbridge who sent the dementors to Harry.
In order the see Thestrals one must see and fully understand death. Harry was an infant when his parents were killed and unconscious when Quirell died. It took him almost the whole summer after Cedric died for him to fully process what had happened.
Not really. It was an ok storyline, but Lupin was really a shit dad and husband. It was probably better that it was left out so people didn't hate him. After all, he was continually self loathing that he constantly rebuffed Tonks and when he finally got her pregnant, he was so scared of his werewolf curse being passed on (even though he knew it wouldn't because it never has been in other cases) that he basically abandons here and asks Harry to let him accompany Harry to do things while leaving Tonks with the baby alone and without any help. I won't say that their death was their fault since fighting at Hogwarts at the final battle was a good thing, but it was still really shitty for BOTH Tonks and Lupin to go fight leaving their baby with Tonks' mom. Should've though about how it would be like to grow up without either parents.
Um, you do know that Harry hadn't actually opened the present containing the mirror until after Sirius died in OotP, don't you? It was one of Harry's greatest regrets.
@@boyankovachev7982 No, he didn't! How could he know what it was when he hadn't opened it or even read the note yet? But yes, he was a dumb teen who acted in the moment for not opening it when he got it.
@@Compucles Sirius told him. Yea, he told him it's a way to contact him, and not "It's a two-way mirror with which we can speak", but yea. P.S. I may be wrong, now when I think, but fck it. I'm way too deep. Still. One love ❤️
But Sirius told him when he gave it to him that it was a way to contact him if he needed him. Harry then thought he would never use it cause he didn’t want to risk contacting Sirius and getting him caught.
When they find Slughorn transformed into an armchair and Dumbledore mentions dragon's blood .... it later appears at Bathilda Bagshot's home too. It was never explained in the films but it referred as an ingredient used in the potion used for transformations
i think the tabboo on voldemorts name in the end is one of the most important things they should have mentioned in the movies. It was brilliant from voldemort. Harry and Dumbledore worked always on people so they dared to say his name.
if there had to be honourable mentions in this video, I would add why Harry out of the blue wrote "Do you know anything about Chamber of Secrets?" in Tom Riddle's Diary after finding it in Moaning Myrtle's bathroom. At this point, neither did he know that Moaning Myrtle was the girl who was killed 50 years ago, nor did he know that the Chamber of Secrets was in that very bathroom. Then, why would he randomly write that in the diary? ANSWER: In the books, it has been explained that Ron Weasley received detention cleaning the trophy room in which he had to clean Tom Riddle's 50-year-old Trophy of Special Award For Service to School. Since Harry and Hermione knew Chamber of Secrets was opened 50 years ago, and the culprit was caught, they guessed that Tom Riddle must have helped in capturing the culprit and hence received the trophy 50 years ago. Harry saw the name Tom Riddle in the diary, learned that the diary absorbs ink, and decided to try and ask the diary about the Chamber of Secrets based on his assumptions.
I always thoughts that one of the biggest mess ups of the movie was explaining how Harry got his old holly wand back. I think snapping the elder wand was dumb.
One moment that i liked is that in GoF Hermione figured out that Rita Skeeter (the author of the daily prophet) was an unregistered animagus (her animagus form being a beetle) and that she used this form to spy and hear gossip, Hermione caught her and put her inside a jar charmed with an unbreakable charm and threatened Rita to stop spreading fake news or otherwise she will expose her for being an unregistered animagus
2:39 There is an other delete scene just before fleur and bill wedding : Lupin ask Harry if he could be the godfather of teddy. Fun fact : Victor Krum also attended the wedding.
I read the books. Saw the movies with my husband. After each movie I spent the next couple of days answering his questions. The last movie. We were in a crowd. A few people heard me answering my husband's question. I spent the next hour explaining plot holes. I finally said. Read the books. Funnily enough. A couple of months later I ran into a couple who had been in that crowd. They had done what I told them too. They read the books together and wanted to thank me.
In the thestral entry you say "while you could argue that he should've been able to see them after Cedric's tragic end, the books made it more plausible why he couldn't view them earlier.", but in both the book and movie that death is why he can see them.
Perhaps he would have seen them if they were ever within eyeline.... OoP us first time being driven by carriages with nothing pulling them happens in the movies and I don't think it happened previously in the books either..
OoP us first time being driven by carriages with nothing pulling them happens in the movies and I don't think it happened previously in the books either... so he couldn't see them because he never had the opportunity to see them (or not).
I may be in a minority (at least of those who have read the books) but I didn't read the series until after I saw the movies (I first read it just 6 years ago in fact), and it completed the story for me. I don't dislike the movies, but am grateful for having read the books. I could hear the characters in the actor's voices when reading (even if they never said the line in the movie).
I don't think they explained that Slughorn was a Slytherin very well in the movies. To me Slughorn was an important example that not all Slytherin's are pureblood obsessed and evil. Granted he did have some negative qualities, most notably favoring outstanding students, but for the most part he was a descent person. His appreciation of outstanding students was given regardless of house or blood status, even giving points to Gryffindor when appropriate. He also didn't favor Slytherin students just because they were Slytherins, he barely seemed care who Draco was in the book.
Why couldn't Voldemort kill Harry in the final movie? It explained that a part of Voldemort's soul was in Harry and that it had to be destroyed. Harry willingly faces Voldemort and allows himself to die, but while the piece of Voldemort's soul is dead and Harry is now free of his bond with the Dark Lord, Harry himself is still alive. We get a hunch from Dumbledore's Force Ghost as to why that happened in the book but not in the movie. Also while Harry lived, the fact that he was ready to die for his loved ones kept them safe, mirroring his mother’s sacrifice. I personally felt that was a nice touch, but that too was omitted from the movie.
Remember the Elder Wand wouldn't answer to Voldemort properly, and that it actually belonged to Harry? Apparently the Elder Wand wouldn't harm its rightful owner, and since Harry became the rightful owner at that time, the Elder Wand couldn't hurt him.
@@johnseelinger9803 That could've been a factor as well, although it was really poetic that the main reason Harry survived was due to Voldemort arrogantly insisting on taking Harry's blood for his new body. I also love the foreshadowing of Dumbledore's victory eye twinkle when Harry told him about that way back in "Goblet of Fire."
Harry calling Serius Padfoot didn’t come out of no where, while in the train station Alistar Moody calls Serius padfoot while he was in dog mode and Harry was right next to Moody the entire time.
Dobby's social status is answered way better in the books, I have to say! Also, in the movies, it seems like Dobby instantly becomes everyone's friend, but in the book, they get to know him and like him gradually, which is much more logical.
This is why it’s a good idea to read the books at some point. There are SO many little details that are plot important that had to he cut from the movies.
I think they never explained Neville almost being singled out instead of Harry as they were born around the same time, Neville’s parents torture and them being admitted to st mungos, when Mr Weasley was attacked the family and Harry visited him in hospital and there was an incident where Harry came across Neville’s mother, would also explain more why the cruciatus curse on that spider bothered him so much. Also the handling of the prophecy which was never explained that it came from a dumbledore memory and why professor trelawney was hired by dumbledore.
I know that when it comes to adapting comics and books to the big screen some stuff is left out for various reasons, but it would help not to leave such important facts out when adapting the lore from books to film.
I feel like they could have done a better job if they had waited until the books were finished. Most of the issues arise from the fact that they weren't working with full plan. They only got little hints about what must be kept in without explaining why. Meanwhile many important details were left out because no one knew they would be important later. If the books had been done, then the movies would have been vastly better and made more sense.
@@pingidjit Maybe, although I don't think that applies to most of these exclusions. Plus, the books were finished before the last 3 movies were made, so you can't blame any of those cuts on that excuse. On that note, I heard that they wanted to cut Kreacher from the Order of the Phoenix movie, but Rowling told them it was important that he been included.
The patronus charm full effect. The fact that Patronus turns to a certain animal shape. The fact about how the patronus changes if a person falls in love and becomes the patronus of the person they fell for. (like with Tonks and Snape). Also the fact that all time turners were destroyed as it leaves a lot of plot hole
Thinking it over the permission is weird either way: deal with mandrakes, engage in (supervised) duels, potentially ride/get maimed by a hipogriff- fine Go to nearby town full of candy and butterbeer- we can’t do that without a proper contract. Think of the legal ramifications!
It's because they are leaving the campus all the rest are on school grounds. And getting maimed by a hippogriff wasn't fine remember got the griff almost killed.
All the books have two “endings”: the action ending and the explanation ending. The movies always over indulged on the action ending (except HBP, no Order and DE fight) & completely skimped on the explanation ending. This is a huge cause of plot holes in the movies- no explanation of the Marauders, no explanation from Crouch, Jr, no explanation of the prophecy (or Harry destroying Dumbledore’s office). HBP skimps on explaining the objects Riddle stole for horcruxes & on his history. DH pt 2 skimps on telling us why Harry survived and why he was able to defeat Voldemort in the end. If the filmmakers had taken more time to tell the incredible story and less on making action movies, these could have been explained.
another interesting thing with the thestrals, if you notice when harry asks what they are nevelle looks right at the thestrals, it is clear he can see them and is even mentioned in the books that he can see them since thestrals were taught in care of magical creatures in the books and that was how harry learned about them and that was how we learned nevelle can see them too
Well.... its dead giveaway (Pun intended) when Bella asks Neville "how's mummy and daddy" in the movie (cuz she's the one who killed them) he was probably present when that happened...
My biggest question from the movies is why they added a fight at the Burrow that isn't in the book, then, in the same film, removed a battle between the Order and Death Eaters in the aftermath of the death of Dumbledore. In the books, this is where Bill is attacked by Greyback. All we get to see in the movies is Bill saying his scar was a souvenir from Fenrir Grey back which he hopes to repay. I understand cutting things for time and the flow of the film, but the fact they threw in a random battle at the burrow, at the expense of things actually in the book, always irked me.
I’ve read somewhere that the fight at the burrow was put in place so that there could be a fight in the middle of the videogame, but since I haven’t played the game I don’t know if there is a fight in the middle of it
In the ootp book all DA members would be informed through a coin when a meeting was supposed to take place and that the parchment everyone signed their name on was jinxed by Hermione so that anyone that snitches them out to Umbridge will have “sneak” or “snitch” (don’t remember exactly) written on their forehead with pimples, Marietta i think her name was, a friend of Cho Changs suffered this by ratting the DA to Umbridge
There is tons of things that were omitted in the movies, but having read the books countless times, i almost couldn't differentiate which things would be fully explained and which ones not (for example to someone who had never read the books) because i already know the backstory of everything. By the way, the story of Sirius mirror is that Harry simply forgot that he had it (With it, it came a note that said to Harry not to open it at the moment, but to use it later. He stored it wrapped and forgot about it). After Sirius' death, he found the mirror again (too late) and tried to use it but of course it didn't worked. He smashed it in anger, and that's how he got left with a shard
Since I read the books first I could never relate to people not knowing the back ground 😅 it’s not till non readers point it out I’m like oh yeah that didn’t make sense out of context
Every item Voldemort used, had a meaning to him. The ring and the locket were family heirlooms, Slytherins items. The cup was originally Hufflepuff's heirloom and the Diadem was Ravenclaw's. The snake and diary were dear to him and showed him who he really was, who he became. Harry was accidental, but his destined enemy and downfall Also the mirror. The reason why it is broken is bc Sirius gave it to Harry, told to only open it when he arrived to Hogwarts but Harry forgot it and only after Sirius d1ed, he found it in the bottom of his trunk, smashed under all his other stuff and he felt horrible when he realized what it was and tried to use it, even tho he knew Sirius was gone
This was a great video however, if anyone can explain the following issue that I'm still thinking about, that would be great: @ the end of Chamber of Secrets, Draco's father leaves with Tom Riddle's diary; How did Dumbledore end up with the diary in Half-Blood Prince???
Honestly even though it’s not fully explained in the movies I feel like number 10 isn’t really a valid point. Yes, they are leaving out the background story, but there is still a reason for the disappearance of every single one of them in the movies. Quirrel dies, Lockhart looses his memory, Lupin is discovered to be a werewolf, Mad Eye is exposed to not be the real one, Umbridge is taken by the centaurs and Snape must leave after killing Dumbledore, so in a way there is an explanation for that matter
And in the books it is explained that even before the trio comes to hogwarts, defence against the dark arts teachers came and went and no one lasted more than a year after Dumbledore refused Riddle the job
a season per book would be awesome to make a limited series of 7 seasons with 8 hour long episodes for each season, with a series finale of 2 hours min. ;) perfect! And I’d vote Nick Frost in for Hagrid!!❤️
They do the mirror in the book dirty too. It doesn't even make an appearance until after Sirius dies in the book. He didn't open the package Sirius gave him in the beginning of OotP because "...he knew he would never use whatever it was. It would not be he, Harry, who lured Sirius from his place of safety.." and then proceeds to do dangerous nonsense like sneaking into a sociopathic, torture prone bureaucrat's office and using a fireplace to talk to him instead. Then, for some reason, Sirius doesn't immediately go "yo, you need to hang up this government-connected fireplace facetime crap, call me back on the burner mirror" and just casually talks to him and never mentions the damn mirror! All that mess could have been avoided entirely. And then of course after Sirius dies he opens it, has a sad because it doesn't work, and then just chucks it in his box where it shatters and later becomes a plot shard because he thinks he's seeing a dead Dumbledore in it. Utter nonsense.
Harry gave the twins the money, because he did not deserve it and "we'll all need more laughs in the world". Not simply because he got a lot of money from his parents.
I can't imagine someone who only watched the films and has not read at least 1 or 2 of the books. The films didn't include lots of important things like Voldemort's relatives which are incredibly described in the sixth book. On the other hand, they included things that did not exist and which in my opinion are kind of dumb, like the Talking heads in the 3rd film, which I didn't like even back then when I was a teenager.
Added dumb things Dragon fight, blowing up of the Room of Requirements door, and everyone flying first one stupid and second major plot hole for last book/movie third broke the fact that Voldemort's flying was extraordinary. The worst changes were in the last movie with the Malfoys ... they did not run away they stayed to the end (only ones sitting at the Slithering table) and Harry disintegrating Voldemort (how were they to prove he was dead)
I have always been sad that they didn’t make a TV Series instead. The movies are so rushed and therefore not only are a lot of things left out, but in the movies the focus is almost entirely on the main plot regarding Voldemort. The aspects of his everyday school life is reduced to a minimum, even though as a student it’s an important part.
Another thing never mentioned is that Harry talks to Kreacher by Floo powder in the 5th book. He asks where Sirius is and Kreacher lies, telling him Sirius has gone to the Ministry and will never come back. They also don’t mention that Harry inherits Grimmauld Place and Kreacher, which is why Kreacher has to obey him in Hallows.
Light bulb!💡 I have a plot twist theory. What if Regulus told Dumbledore secretly when he found out about the horcruxes when he found the locket horcrux?!?! 🤯🤯😎
I love the first three Harry Potter movies, the other movies not so much although I do like and enjoy them they just lack the charm, style and personality of the first three movies!
There was also the thing about there being house elves liveing in the kitchens that cook all the meals and that dobby ended up moving in and was in almost every book after the 2nd one. there was also peves witch outside of the book did appear in some of the games. they never explain the teleport spell in the film well they kinda do but its 2 line's by harry and doumbledoor and it dosnt make it obvius what it was. they also dont explain the hole thing about what happens when the spell fails and part of you gets left behind. in the 4th book they actuly explain that the 2nd challenge they planed with the mermaids to kidnap the 4 frainds and there was a part after the challenge where doumbledoor is talking to the mermaid about how harry rescued everyone else and gave up winning first place. there was another character who took over for hagrid at one point and i think it was the cyclops from the first film there was also this part where they reveal that the 3rd deathly hallows was actuly harrys invisability cloke cus unlike other ones his was perfect invisability and it never wore off.
While it's impossible to mirror content from a novel to a movie 1:1, the HP film series falls incredibly short of the novels, especially from book 3 onward. In terms of adaptation accuracy I would have called it one of the weaker attempts (fantasy series), above Eragon and Golden Compass. Then Wheel of Time came along and made HP look like a master glass in film adaptation.
Ha, Eragon was a literal pile of dogshit. Not only was it badly done in general for people who knew nothing about the books, but it also attempted to combine parts of multiple books into one short movie and changed so many things randomly. I don't even want to remember it existed and wish someone who cared would make a movie on it.
@@DarkAoiishi I always hate when they combine multiple books in one movie. Look at Artemis Fowl they burnt that movie bad. The worst one I know of was The Seeker (The Dark is Rising) X.X all plot points changed and they said they thought it was better that way.
The marauders' identities were obvious and didn't need to be spelled out. Padfoot is a dog, wormtail is a rat, moony is a werewolf and James is the only one left so he's prongs.
Harry does not use the name "Padfoot" out of nowhere. Early in the movie we see Sirius walk next to Moody and Harry disguised as a dog, and Moody then says "Padfoot, are you barking mad!?"
That's why reading is always better then the actual shows adaptation or movies; been reading since what 2005-06 ish. I legit picture a looot of those scenes and moments much better in my head. And the majority that was showed to us felt weak, but if you never read rhe books you should be fine and enjoy the movies and like everyone think they are one of the best movies ever made.
It's more that the original source material is almost always superior. You also don't get the full story when you read the novelization of a movie, after all.
Regarding Fred and George having the funds to open their shop, I think the GoF movie tried to offer an alternate explanation: While their bet with Ludo Bagman was also among the things omitted, the movie has them taking bets among the crowds during the Tri-Wizard Tournament tasks, which they didn't do in the books. I'm not saying Movie!Harry didn't give them his winnings off-camera, this is just my interpretation.
I like that list like these exist and I cannot express how much I love the books but truly none of these questions should have been left unanswered. The movie adaptation should always stand alone on its own in my opinion to be qualified as a good movie. There should not be extra reading material left behind to make sense of the plot of the movie. A movie should tell its story completely. The fact that lists like these are necessary proves that overall the Harry Potter movie franchise failed in achieving what it set out to do in faithfully adopt a book series into a movie series. I have always felt that the Harry Potter books should have been made into a 7 season 8 episodes a season series instead of whatever we got instead. At the beginning because the page count of the first two books were lower there weren't that many missing plot holes but then the page count got higher and the run time remained the same. Harry Potter should have been a well funded series from the start.
i don’t think Professor Mcgonagall would’ve allowed Harry to go even if he had a signed paper or she would’ve assigned a teacher/ auror or two to accompany him. Which would’ve made it less fun. Also would’ve impacted the later books and movies if he didn’t receive the marauders map.
With Harry being able to see the Thestrals, I do agree with the part about Quirrell since Harry didn't see Quirrell die in the books since he passed out, but for his mother, I think Harry did see her death. Remember cribs have bars in them, and Harry would have been able to see through the bars on the crib. I think he saw Voldemort kill her, and if he didn't see her dead body hit the floor, that's still seeing death. If people argue that she might not have been really dead or whatever until she hit the floor, realize this: at the end of the first chapter of Goblet of Fire, when Voldemort killed Frank Bryce, the text said that Frank was dead before he hit the floor. Also, in Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix, with Harry not using that mirror to see if his godfather was really in danger or not; remember that when Sirius gave Harry the mirror, the mirror was wrapped up. Harry did not open that present until after Bellatrix murdered Sirius. Harry learned about how the mirror worked after opening it since it contained a note from Sirius about what the mirror did and how to use it. Harry actually tried to use the mirror after opening it to try to speak to Sirius again, but then remembered that Sirius didn't have the mirror on him when he was murdered. One aspect that WatchMojo seemed to forget to add was who gave Harry his father's invisibility cloak. It was revealed near the end of the first book, Sorcerer's or Philosopher's Stone, after Harry woke up in the hospital wing, that Dumbledore gave it to him.
Maybe, although I think they meant more of a bassinet than a true crib. Even if he had seen it, the same argument applies as to why he didn't see them at the end of GoF: naturally, a baby can't understand death. You're absolutely right about the mirror, though.
@@Compucles Yeah, I have heard that J. K. Rowling said that to see the Thestrals, not only do you have to see death, but you also have to understand it, too. I find it a complicated situation, but you are totally right that babies don't understand death.
Honestly (and I love HP so very much), the 3rd movie has always been a disappointment because it didn't explain the Marauders better. Similarly, Half-Blood Prince was one that made a lot of non-readers really angry, as I recall, because it left out so much.
Without watching the video. The most important thing they did not explain in the movies was how Harry survived the killing curse from Voldemorte in the forbidden forest. Answer because Voldemorte took Harrry's blood when he recreated his body.
It’s because you’re *supposed* to read the books before you watch the moviesssssss My mom had us read a book and watch it’s movie after the book, and then move on to the next book and watch it’s movie after reading it Thats so obvious
the more interesting question about the marauders map is - how did the Weasly twins figure out the password? at the time the twins stole the map from Filtches office they were 1st or 2nd year students...
That was never explained in the books, either. Rowling eventually said something about how the map would give reactions whenever they said some words from the password, thereby allowing them to figure it out by trial and error.
Did the books actually explain why he ended up with Ginny? I read them, might have missed that crucial part of building up the narrative connection between those two.
There were a lot more scenes that hinted at his growing affection for Ginny. One of them was when Slughorn introduced the amortentia potion which is supposed to smell like the thing you like the most. Harry smells the same thing later and it was revealed that the smell was coming from Ginny. There are scenes where Harry finds Ginny making out with Dean and his struggle to understand why it bothers him so much. Then there were parts where we see how much he is struggling with the fact that he facies his best friend's sister. He is also shown happy, though he doesn't openly show it, when Ginny breaks up with Dean. Lastly, after winning the match, he was just so happy that when he saw her in the common room, he kissed Ginny on impulse in front of everyone during the celebration for winning the Quidditch match leading to silence. He then brings her away to talk about it and they end up dating. Ron is shocked, but is ok with it even though he was so against Ginny's other boyfriends because per him, it's better to be his best mate than some random dude.
In The Order of the Phoenix, when Harry was calling Professor Dumbledore constantly and he didn’t hear him what did Harry want and why Dumbledore couldn’t here him?
That scene was a poor portrayal of Dumbledore's decision to distance himself from Harry during his fifth year. There are mainly two reasons why Dumbledore decided to distance himself from Harry. First, Dumbledore had started to suspect that Harry had a piece of Voldemort's soul inside him. As a result, Dumbledore did not want to put himself and Harry in a situation where Voldemort could act through Harry to attack him. Secondly, Dumbledore did not want Voldemort to know, through his connection with Harry, that Harry was an important person to him. Dumbledore hoped that by so doing, Harry won't be used as a weapon against him by Voldemort. Therefore, he gave Harry so much space that Dumbledore barely appeared in Book 5 until towards the end.
While the Harry Potter movies were overall pretty good adaptations, this is just further proof that entertainment adaptations will almost never fully live up to the original source material. Plus, most of the rare times they actually do are because the original creator was heavily involved in the making of the adaptation.
Actually in Harry was allowed to go to Hogsmead in the 4-6 book because at the end of book three Harry tells the Dursleys he has a Godfather thats a murderer and that scares the Dursleys so as not to suffer his murderous Godfather's wrath they sign whatever Harry put in front of them.
I thought the reason why Harry had never seen thestrals before was because he'd never taken the carriage upto the castle before and so he never had a chance to run into them until that point.
I've always wondered in the first part of the deathly hallows when the three got captured by the snatchers why they didn't disapporate ( hope I spelt that right) like they did when shinkly got them at Grimleys place
11. 'How did J.K. Rowling know Harry Potter was the chosen one to focus on his story?' Anyway, here are the questions: 10. Why does the defence teacher always change? [0:36] 9. How did Harry know Lupin & Tonks had a son? [1:46] 8. Why is Harry allowed to go to Hogsmeade? [2:46] 7. How can Fred & George afford to open a shop? [3:48] 6. Why couldn't Harry see thestrals earlier? [4:48] 5. How did Dumbledore find the first 2 Horcruxes? [5:40] 4. How did Barty Crouch Jr. escape Azkaban? [6:33] 3. How did Voldemort's followers find the trio? [7:38] 2. Where did the two-way mirror come from? [8:33] 1. Who are the Marauders? [9:52]
The two-way mirror was an insult. Someone should've reminded Harry that it was in his possession days after receiving it and the death of Sirius may have been prevented for some time.
I don't think anyone else knew about it except Sirius. He received it as a present from Sirius, but didn't open it until everything was over and Sirius was already dead so even he didn't know about it yet.
When he gave it to Harry he told him it was a way to get in touch with him not exactly what it was so Harry forgot about it because he didn't want to give Sirius a reason to leave the house.
@@Amokra Still, it took months for Harry to remember that he had the mirror in the first place. Anyone else could've mentioned the bag in passing to remind Harry to look.
@@MrTimelord77 No one else knew about it Sirius slipped it to him and Harry hid it so he would not remember it himself. I do agree the movie should have shown his anguish at the realization of it.

One of the disaponting omissions from the 3 book was at the end Harry receives a letter from Sirius saying he can go to Hogsmed and that's all where Harry learns who sent the firebolt
The 3rd movie gave me cancer and a touch of ebola. One of the worst adaptions I've ever seen
@@Gurra88 It was a good adaptation, but ofc they had to remove stuff. I read the book non-stop in like 10 hrs. That couldnt be done in a movie. Goblet of the fire is the worst adaptation in my opinion
@@victor1998-swe nope half blood Prince is the worst adaptation in terms of adapting the story. They omitted all the important memories of Voldemort and added unnecessary non-canon stuffs.
Although i must say they got the tone and music right.
@@subhamdas943 I feel that but I personally hated goblet of fire
Cutting the "who gave Harry the firebolt" was a wack
This is why we need a TV show. An episode for each chapter. Leaves a lot less possibility to omit details
Yessssssssssssssssss we do. It would be expensive to produce it though. So many special effects
I wouldn’t go that far but a season per book would be awesome to make a limited series of 7 seasons with 8 hour long episodes for each season, with a series finale of 2 hours min. ;) perfect! And I’d vote Nick Frost in for Hagrid!!❤️
But in the future. The movies are too recent, and the way they are making book adaptations to series nowdays sucks. It woul be very important to place the action in the 90's as in the books.
I agree
Or they could, y'know, let books be books. Don't need a movie or a TV show.
I was always mad that the movies left out the explanation for why Harry has to stay at the Dursleys every summer. When Harry's mother died, a protection charm was placed over Harry, but it only works when he's living under the roof of a blood relative. Since Petunia is Lily's sister, the charm works as long as he's under the Dursleys' roof. The scene where she changes her mind about kicking out Harry in Order of the Phoenix is because Dumbledore sends a letter to her reminding her of the charm. The Dursleys may be terrible people, but not even Petunia wanted to see Harry killed. It's also disappointing that the movies never explained that Petunia wanted to go to Hogwarts too and when she found out she couldn't because she was a Muggle, she became bitter about it.
@troy griffey I don't ever recall it being mentioned in any of the eight movies.
@@amwfan88 it was in the books. The build up romance of Harry and Ginny. Ron and Ginny actually made the quidditch team in movie 5 not 6. The fallout between Percy and the other Weasleys and how he redemmed himself in last book. Fred actually amazed Percy was joking and then suddenly died and Percy covered his body fr DEaters as he mourned. How Kreacher turned clean and loyal to Harry after giving the fake locket made by Regulus. The house elves in Hogwarts where dobby and the rest work and clean and then Kreacher led them to fight in the last boom. Ron and Hermiones first kiss makeout was in front of Harry when Ron tried to protect the house elves for her SPEW. Harry had to break them up saying theyre curr at war 😄
@@kaycee.does.utube7779 Yeah, but I'm unclear as to what your comment has to do with mine. I know it was in the books, but my comment was on the biggest omission from the movies. I've read all the books.
@@amwfan88 i think maybe they responded to the wrong comment on accident.
Some other noticeable ones:
- Barty Crouch Jr. getting the Dementor's Kiss, thus destroying the only testimony (other than Harry's) about Voldemort's return.
- Umbridge revealing she was the one who sent the Dementors to attack Harry.
- The full backstory behind Marvolo's ring, Hufflepuff's cup and Slytherin's locket and how Voldemort got them to make them horcruxes.
Your 3rd point is addressed in number 5
@@DeliciousDetail I know, I'm talking about the objects themselves (plus they did miss out mentioning the cup).
Some people also thought that Ginny cheated on Dean when she kissed Harry, but it was made clear in the book that she broke up with Dean.
It was also stated in the first film that Snape is one of the teachers protecting the stone, but his defensive method, the potions, was never shown in the film.
Also, that eye effect on wizards under the imperius curse contradicts the difficulty of spotting the liars among those who claimed to be under the imperius curse.
It's also unfortunate that the full story of RAB (Regulus Arturus Black) wasn't shown in the 7th film.
It's also revealed later in the 5th book that it was Umbridge who sent the dementors to Harry.
Was umbridge a death eater ?
@@markdillon9588 nope.
"The world, Harry, isn't devided to good peoole and death eathers." - or something like that; Sirius Black

In order the see Thestrals one must see and fully understand death. Harry was an infant when his parents were killed and unconscious when Quirell died. It took him almost the whole summer after Cedric died for him to fully process what had happened.
It makes me so sad to think that bassicly the whole lupin tonks storyline is left out especcially teddy tonks 😔
Not really. It was an ok storyline, but Lupin was really a shit dad and husband. It was probably better that it was left out so people didn't hate him. After all, he was continually self loathing that he constantly rebuffed Tonks and when he finally got her pregnant, he was so scared of his werewolf curse being passed on (even though he knew it wouldn't because it never has been in other cases) that he basically abandons here and asks Harry to let him accompany Harry to do things while leaving Tonks with the baby alone and without any help. I won't say that their death was their fault since fighting at Hogwarts at the final battle was a good thing, but it was still really shitty for BOTH Tonks and Lupin to go fight leaving their baby with Tonks' mom. Should've though about how it would be like to grow up without either parents.
Um, you do know that Harry hadn't actually opened the present containing the mirror until after Sirius died in OotP, don't you? It was one of Harry's greatest regrets.
But he still knew what it was. He was just a dumb teen, who acted in the momment.
@@boyankovachev7982 No, he didn't! How could he know what it was when he hadn't opened it or even read the note yet?
But yes, he was a dumb teen who acted in the moment for not opening it when he got it.
@@Compucles Sirius told him. Yea, he told him it's a way to contact him, and not "It's a two-way mirror with which we can speak", but yea.
P.S. I may be wrong, now when I think, but fck it. I'm way too deep.
Still.
One love ❤️
Read the book. It's a plot point that he doesn't know what's the gift he received, then ignored and forgot about it until the end of the book.
But Sirius told him when he gave it to him that it was a way to contact him if he needed him. Harry then thought he would never use it cause he didn’t want to risk contacting Sirius and getting him caught.
When they find Slughorn transformed into an armchair and Dumbledore mentions dragon's blood .... it later appears at Bathilda Bagshot's home too. It was never explained in the films but it referred as an ingredient used in the potion used for transformations
i think the tabboo on voldemorts name in the end is one of the most important things they should have mentioned in the movies. It was brilliant from voldemort. Harry and Dumbledore worked always on people so they dared to say his name.
if there had to be honourable mentions in this video, I would add why Harry out of the blue wrote "Do you know anything about Chamber of Secrets?" in Tom Riddle's Diary after finding it in Moaning Myrtle's bathroom. At this point, neither did he know that Moaning Myrtle was the girl who was killed 50 years ago, nor did he know that the Chamber of Secrets was in that very bathroom. Then, why would he randomly write that in the diary?
ANSWER: In the books, it has been explained that Ron Weasley received detention cleaning the trophy room in which he had to clean Tom Riddle's 50-year-old Trophy of Special Award For Service to School. Since Harry and Hermione knew Chamber of Secrets was opened 50 years ago, and the culprit was caught, they guessed that Tom Riddle must have helped in capturing the culprit and hence received the trophy 50 years ago. Harry saw the name Tom Riddle in the diary, learned that the diary absorbs ink, and decided to try and ask the diary about the Chamber of Secrets based on his assumptions.
That is good to know
I love the films so much but they don't do Ron justice. He was incredibly smart in the books and they gave a lot of his lines to Hermione.
a friend of mine just read the books for the first time this summer and said "its like a whole new series" compared to the movies....like YUP!
Moony, Wormtail, Padfoot and Prongs. Yep I still remember reading the books and I made sure they were all before their respective movies.
You forgot about the reason why Harry has to stay with the Dursleys or that it was Umbridge who sent those Dementors in the beginning of book 5.
I always thoughts that one of the biggest mess ups of the movie was explaining how Harry got his old holly wand back. I think snapping the elder wand was dumb.
I liked the snapping but didn't like the battle of Hogwarts at the crack of dawn to Harry not repairing his holly wand prior to the break
One moment that i liked is that in GoF Hermione figured out that Rita Skeeter (the author of the daily prophet) was an unregistered animagus (her animagus form being a beetle) and that she used this form to spy and hear gossip, Hermione caught her and put her inside a jar charmed with an unbreakable charm and threatened Rita to stop spreading fake news or otherwise she will expose her for being an unregistered animagus
2:39 There is an other delete scene just before fleur and bill wedding : Lupin ask Harry if he could be the godfather of teddy.
Fun fact : Victor Krum also attended the wedding.
I read the books. Saw the movies with my husband. After each movie I spent the next couple of days answering his questions. The last movie. We were in a crowd. A few people heard me answering my husband's question. I spent the next hour explaining plot holes. I finally said. Read the books. Funnily enough. A couple of months later I ran into a couple who had been in that crowd. They had done what I told them too. They read the books together and wanted to thank me.
What a coincidence!
That’s awesome.
@@wikiuser92 Not really. It is a small Post.
In the thestral entry you say "while you could argue that he should've been able to see them after Cedric's tragic end, the books made it more plausible why he couldn't view them earlier.", but in both the book and movie that death is why he can see them.
They’re talking about how at the end of GoF he still can’t see em, but only at the beginning of OoP I think.
@@V1G4M1 Yeah, that part was only ever explained by Rowling outside the books, namely that you had to fully accept the death you saw.
He should of been able to see them from the start as he saw his mom die
Perhaps he would have seen them if they were ever within eyeline.... OoP us first time being driven by carriages with nothing pulling them happens in the movies and I don't think it happened previously in the books either..
OoP us first time being driven by carriages with nothing pulling them happens in the movies and I don't think it happened previously in the books either... so he couldn't see them because he never had the opportunity to see them (or not).
I may be in a minority (at least of those who have read the books) but I didn't read the series until after I saw the movies (I first read it just 6 years ago in fact), and it completed the story for me. I don't dislike the movies, but am grateful for having read the books. I could hear the characters in the actor's voices when reading (even if they never said the line in the movie).
I don't think they explained that Slughorn was a Slytherin very well in the movies. To me Slughorn was an important example that not all Slytherin's are pureblood obsessed and evil. Granted he did have some negative qualities, most notably favoring outstanding students, but for the most part he was a descent person. His appreciation of outstanding students was given regardless of house or blood status, even giving points to Gryffindor when appropriate. He also didn't favor Slytherin students just because they were Slytherins, he barely seemed care who Draco was in the book.
Yeah, and Draco was sulking about it as well
Horace Slughorn was an outstanding Slytherin.
Why couldn't Voldemort kill Harry in the final movie?
It explained that a part of Voldemort's soul was in Harry and that it had to be destroyed. Harry willingly faces Voldemort and allows himself to die, but while the piece of Voldemort's soul is dead and Harry is now free of his bond with the Dark Lord, Harry himself is still alive. We get a hunch from Dumbledore's Force Ghost as to why that happened in the book but not in the movie.
Also while Harry lived, the fact that he was ready to die for his loved ones kept them safe, mirroring his mother’s sacrifice. I personally felt that was a nice touch, but that too was omitted from the movie.
Nice use of a Star Wars reference...lol. (at least I think "force ghost" was originated in Star Wars).
Dumbledore's force ghost lmao
Remember the Elder Wand wouldn't answer to Voldemort properly, and that it actually belonged to Harry? Apparently the Elder Wand wouldn't harm its rightful owner, and since Harry became the rightful owner at that time, the Elder Wand couldn't hurt him.
I always thought Harry survived because just before he faces Voldemort the resurrection stone is spun.
@@johnseelinger9803 That could've been a factor as well, although it was really poetic that the main reason Harry survived was due to Voldemort arrogantly insisting on taking Harry's blood for his new body. I also love the foreshadowing of Dumbledore's victory eye twinkle when Harry told him about that way back in "Goblet of Fire."
Harry calling Serius Padfoot didn’t come out of no where, while in the train station Alistar Moody calls Serius padfoot while he was in dog mode and Harry was right next to Moody the entire time.
Dobby's social status is answered way better in the books, I have to say! Also, in the movies, it seems like Dobby instantly becomes everyone's friend, but in the book, they get to know him and like him gradually, which is much more logical.
This is why it’s a good idea to read the books at some point. There are SO many little details that are plot important that had to he cut from the movies.
I think they never explained Neville almost being singled out instead of Harry as they were born around the same time, Neville’s parents torture and them being admitted to st mungos, when Mr Weasley was attacked the family and Harry visited him in hospital and there was an incident where Harry came across Neville’s mother, would also explain more why the cruciatus curse on that spider bothered him so much. Also the handling of the prophecy which was never explained that it came from a dumbledore memory and why professor trelawney was hired by dumbledore.
Yah I didn’t like how those two points were handled in the 5th movie. We got a full satisfying explanation for both in the books.
The Neville thing wasn't that important, but yes it was terrible that the movies never fully explained the prophecy or even revealed what it was!
I know that when it comes to adapting comics and books to the big screen some stuff is left out for various reasons, but it would help not to leave such important facts out when adapting the lore from books to film.
I feel like they could have done a better job if they had waited until the books were finished. Most of the issues arise from the fact that they weren't working with full plan. They only got little hints about what must be kept in without explaining why. Meanwhile many important details were left out because no one knew they would be important later. If the books had been done, then the movies would have been vastly better and made more sense.
@@pingidjit Maybe, although I don't think that applies to most of these exclusions. Plus, the books were finished before the last 3 movies were made, so you can't blame any of those cuts on that excuse.
On that note, I heard that they wanted to cut Kreacher from the Order of the Phoenix movie, but Rowling told them it was important that he been included.
7:36 Ron also mentions there's a taboo curse on Voldemort's name in the film, though.
The patronus charm full effect.
The fact that Patronus turns to a certain animal shape.
The fact about how the patronus changes if a person falls in love and becomes the patronus of the person they fell for. (like with Tonks and Snape).
Also the fact that all time turners were destroyed as it leaves a lot of plot hole
The third movie left so much out. The crookshanks storyline was pretty interesting on its own.
Thinking it over the permission is weird either way: deal with mandrakes, engage in (supervised) duels, potentially ride/get maimed by a hipogriff- fine
Go to nearby town full of candy and butterbeer- we can’t do that without a proper contract. Think of the legal ramifications!
It's because they are leaving the campus all the rest are on school grounds. And getting maimed by a hippogriff wasn't fine remember got the griff almost killed.
All the books have two “endings”: the action ending and the explanation ending. The movies always over indulged on the action ending (except HBP, no Order and DE fight) & completely skimped on the explanation ending. This is a huge cause of plot holes in the movies- no explanation of the Marauders, no explanation from Crouch, Jr, no explanation of the prophecy (or Harry destroying Dumbledore’s office). HBP skimps on explaining the objects Riddle stole for horcruxes & on his history. DH pt 2 skimps on telling us why Harry survived and why he was able to defeat Voldemort in the end. If the filmmakers had taken more time to tell the incredible story and less on making action movies, these could have been explained.
another interesting thing with the thestrals, if you notice when harry asks what they are nevelle looks right at the thestrals, it is clear he can see them and is even mentioned in the books that he can see them since thestrals were taught in care of magical creatures in the books and that was how harry learned about them and that was how we learned nevelle can see them too
Well.... its dead giveaway (Pun intended) when Bella asks Neville "how's mummy and daddy" in the movie (cuz she's the one who killed them) he was probably present when that happened...
@@gingergoddess1012 Neville's parents aren't dead at least in the books. They were tortured into insanity and are patients at Saint Mungo's Hospital.
Well at some point he has seen death.. since he was able to see them... so who knows..
@@gingergoddess1012 Neville was mentioned to see his grandfather die.
@@denizkenger52 I remembered that after I posted it.. lmao.. its been a while since I read all the books.. 🤦♀️🤦♀️🤦♀️🤦♀️
My biggest question from the movies is why they added a fight at the Burrow that isn't in the book, then, in the same film, removed a battle between the Order and Death Eaters in the aftermath of the death of Dumbledore. In the books, this is where Bill is attacked by Greyback. All we get to see in the movies is Bill saying his scar was a souvenir from Fenrir Grey back which he hopes to repay.
I understand cutting things for time and the flow of the film, but the fact they threw in a random battle at the burrow, at the expense of things actually in the book, always irked me.
I’ve read somewhere that the fight at the burrow was put in place so that there could be a fight in the middle of the videogame, but since I haven’t played the game I don’t know if there is a fight in the middle of it
Wow. If that's actually the reason, that's awful.
In the ootp book all DA members would be informed through a coin when a meeting was supposed to take place and that the parchment everyone signed their name on was jinxed by Hermione so that anyone that snitches them out to Umbridge will have “sneak” or “snitch” (don’t remember exactly) written on their forehead with pimples, Marietta i think her name was, a friend of Cho Changs suffered this by ratting the DA to Umbridge
Also, the film version of Order of the Phoenix left out the reveal of who sent Harry the dementors.
Everything can be explained with one word, "magic!!".
There is tons of things that were omitted in the movies, but having read the books countless times, i almost couldn't differentiate which things would be fully explained and which ones not (for example to someone who had never read the books) because i already know the backstory of everything. By the way, the story of Sirius mirror is that Harry simply forgot that he had it (With it, it came a note that said to Harry not to open it at the moment, but to use it later. He stored it wrapped and forgot about it). After Sirius' death, he found the mirror again (too late) and tried to use it but of course it didn't worked. He smashed it in anger, and that's how he got left with a shard
Another omission is the house elf Kreture who tells he by floo network that Sirus went to the Department of mysteries
Since I read the books first I could never relate to people not knowing the back ground 😅 it’s not till non readers point it out I’m like oh yeah that didn’t make sense out of context
Technically it should be “top 10 Harry Potter book questions that were adapted to the movies but without answers”
Every item Voldemort used, had a meaning to him. The ring and the locket were family heirlooms, Slytherins items. The cup was originally Hufflepuff's heirloom and the Diadem was Ravenclaw's. The snake and diary were dear to him and showed him who he really was, who he became. Harry was accidental, but his destined enemy and downfall
Also the mirror. The reason why it is broken is bc Sirius gave it to Harry, told to only open it when he arrived to Hogwarts but Harry forgot it and only after Sirius d1ed, he found it in the bottom of his trunk, smashed under all his other stuff and he felt horrible when he realized what it was and tried to use it, even tho he knew Sirius was gone
I never realized these weren't put in the movies. My dad and brother read the books and as I asked questions they just answered basiced on the books.
This was a great video however, if anyone can explain the following issue that I'm still thinking about, that would be great:
@ the end of Chamber of Secrets, Draco's father leaves with Tom Riddle's diary;
How did Dumbledore end up with the diary in Half-Blood Prince???
Honestly even though it’s not fully explained in the movies I feel like number 10 isn’t really a valid point. Yes, they are leaving out the background story, but there is still a reason for the disappearance of every single one of them in the movies. Quirrel dies, Lockhart looses his memory, Lupin is discovered to be a werewolf, Mad Eye is exposed to not be the real one, Umbridge is taken by the centaurs and Snape must leave after killing Dumbledore, so in a way there is an explanation for that matter
...and Amycus Carrow was captured and convicted as a Death Eater, that is if he even managed to survive.
But it does explain why the position was cursed: Because Voldemort cursed the position after Dumbledore refused to make him a teacher.
And in the books it is explained that even before the trio comes to hogwarts, defence against the dark arts teachers came and went and no one lasted more than a year after Dumbledore refused Riddle the job
a season per book would be awesome to make a limited series of 7 seasons with 8 hour long episodes for each season, with a series finale of 2 hours min. ;) perfect! And I’d vote Nick Frost in for Hagrid!!❤️
They do the mirror in the book dirty too. It doesn't even make an appearance until after Sirius dies in the book. He didn't open the package Sirius gave him in the beginning of OotP because "...he knew he would never use whatever it was. It would not be he, Harry, who lured Sirius from his place of safety.." and then proceeds to do dangerous nonsense like sneaking into a sociopathic, torture prone bureaucrat's office and using a fireplace to talk to him instead. Then, for some reason, Sirius doesn't immediately go "yo, you need to hang up this government-connected fireplace facetime crap, call me back on the burner mirror" and just casually talks to him and never mentions the damn mirror! All that mess could have been avoided entirely. And then of course after Sirius dies he opens it, has a sad because it doesn't work, and then just chucks it in his box where it shatters and later becomes a plot shard because he thinks he's seeing a dead Dumbledore in it. Utter nonsense.
Harry gave the twins the money, because he did not deserve it and "we'll all need more laughs in the world". Not simply because he got a lot of money from his parents.
I can't imagine someone who only watched the films and has not read at least 1 or 2 of the books.
The films didn't include lots of important things like Voldemort's relatives which are incredibly described in the sixth book. On the other hand, they included things that did not exist and which in my opinion are kind of dumb, like the Talking heads in the 3rd film, which I didn't like even back then when I was a teenager.
Added dumb things Dragon fight, blowing up of the Room of Requirements door, and everyone flying first one stupid and second major plot hole for last book/movie third broke the fact that Voldemort's flying was extraordinary. The worst changes were in the last movie with the Malfoys ... they did not run away they stayed to the end (only ones sitting at the Slithering table) and Harry disintegrating Voldemort (how were they to prove he was dead)
I have always been sad that they didn’t make a TV Series instead. The movies are so rushed and therefore not only are a lot of things left out, but in the movies the focus is almost entirely on the main plot regarding Voldemort. The aspects of his everyday school life is reduced to a minimum, even though as a student it’s an important part.
Another thing never mentioned is that Harry talks to Kreacher by Floo powder in the 5th book. He asks where Sirius is and Kreacher lies, telling him Sirius has gone to the Ministry and will never come back. They also don’t mention that Harry inherits Grimmauld Place and Kreacher, which is why Kreacher has to obey him in Hallows.
Light bulb!💡
I have a plot twist theory.
What if Regulus told Dumbledore secretly when he found out about the horcruxes when he found the locket horcrux?!?! 🤯🤯😎
The memory of Tom riddle talking to slug horn about horcruxes🐌
I love the first three Harry Potter movies, the other movies not so much although I do like and enjoy them they just lack the charm, style and personality of the first three movies!
I never wondered about these questions.
Probabely because I've read all books before watching the movies :D.
There was also the thing about there being house elves liveing in the kitchens that cook all the meals and that dobby ended up moving in and was in almost every book after the 2nd one. there was also peves witch outside of the book did appear in some of the games. they never explain the teleport spell in the film well they kinda do but its 2 line's by harry and doumbledoor and it dosnt make it obvius what it was. they also dont explain the hole thing about what happens when the spell fails and part of you gets left behind.
in the 4th book they actuly explain that the 2nd challenge they planed with the mermaids to kidnap the 4 frainds and there was a part after the challenge where doumbledoor is talking to the mermaid about how harry rescued everyone else and gave up winning first place.
there was another character who took over for hagrid at one point and i think it was the cyclops from the first film
there was also this part where they reveal that the 3rd deathly hallows was actuly harrys invisability cloke cus unlike other ones his was perfect invisability and it never wore off.
While it's impossible to mirror content from a novel to a movie 1:1, the HP film series falls incredibly short of the novels, especially from book 3 onward.
In terms of adaptation accuracy I would have called it one of the weaker attempts (fantasy series), above Eragon and Golden Compass. Then Wheel of Time came along and made HP look like a master glass in film adaptation.
Ha, Eragon was a literal pile of dogshit. Not only was it badly done in general for people who knew nothing about the books, but it also attempted to combine parts of multiple books into one short movie and changed so many things randomly. I don't even want to remember it existed and wish someone who cared would make a movie on it.
@@DarkAoiishi I always hate when they combine multiple books in one movie. Look at Artemis Fowl they burnt that movie bad. The worst one I know of was The Seeker (The Dark is Rising) X.X all plot points changed and they said they thought it was better that way.
The marauders' identities were obvious and didn't need to be spelled out. Padfoot is a dog, wormtail is a rat, moony is a werewolf and James is the only one left so he's prongs.
Harry does not use the name "Padfoot" out of nowhere. Early in the movie we see Sirius walk next to Moody and Harry disguised as a dog, and Moody then says "Padfoot, are you barking mad!?"
How Snape came to call himself the half blood Prince
If It's Harry Potter..!! I am here..!! ✨
That's why reading is always better then the actual shows adaptation or movies; been reading since what 2005-06 ish. I legit picture a looot of those scenes and moments much better in my head. And the majority that was showed to us felt weak, but if you never read rhe books you should be fine and enjoy the movies and like everyone think they are one of the best movies ever made.
It's more that the original source material is almost always superior. You also don't get the full story when you read the novelization of a movie, after all.
That's Why if You want all Your HP questions answered You need to read books as well.
UGH I Hate how the Movies left Out some Stuff!
Regarding Fred and George having the funds to open their shop, I think the GoF movie tried to offer an alternate explanation: While their bet with Ludo Bagman was also among the things omitted, the movie has them taking bets among the crowds during the Tri-Wizard Tournament tasks, which they didn't do in the books. I'm not saying Movie!Harry didn't give them his winnings off-camera, this is just my interpretation.
Harry en la miniatura: _Qué Bonita Mi Escuelita. Cómo me gusta Hogwarts_ 😀
harry potta, me cagas harry potta
The books are so vastly superior to the movies that one is doing his or herself a huge disservice by only watching the movies
This is why you need to read the books as well as see the films
I like that list like these exist and I cannot express how much I love the books but truly none of these questions should have been left unanswered. The movie adaptation should always stand alone on its own in my opinion to be qualified as a good movie.
There should not be extra reading material left behind to make sense of the plot of the movie. A movie should tell its story completely. The fact that lists like these are necessary proves that overall the Harry Potter movie franchise failed in achieving what it set out to do in faithfully adopt a book series into a movie series.
I have always felt that the Harry Potter books should have been made into a 7 season 8 episodes a season series instead of whatever we got instead. At the beginning because the page count of the first two books were lower there weren't that many missing plot holes but then the page count got higher and the run time remained the same. Harry Potter should have been a well funded series from the start.
Most of these you wouldn't think twice about anyway
i don’t think Professor Mcgonagall would’ve allowed Harry to go even if he had a signed paper or she would’ve assigned a teacher/ auror or two to accompany him. Which would’ve made it less fun. Also would’ve impacted the later books and movies if he didn’t receive the marauders map.
With Harry being able to see the Thestrals, I do agree with the part about Quirrell since Harry didn't see Quirrell die in the books since he passed out, but for his mother, I think Harry did see her death. Remember cribs have bars in them, and Harry would have been able to see through the bars on the crib. I think he saw Voldemort kill her, and if he didn't see her dead body hit the floor, that's still seeing death. If people argue that she might not have been really dead or whatever until she hit the floor, realize this: at the end of the first chapter of Goblet of Fire, when Voldemort killed Frank Bryce, the text said that Frank was dead before he hit the floor. Also, in Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix, with Harry not using that mirror to see if his godfather was really in danger or not; remember that when Sirius gave Harry the mirror, the mirror was wrapped up. Harry did not open that present until after Bellatrix murdered Sirius. Harry learned about how the mirror worked after opening it since it contained a note from Sirius about what the mirror did and how to use it. Harry actually tried to use the mirror after opening it to try to speak to Sirius again, but then remembered that Sirius didn't have the mirror on him when he was murdered. One aspect that WatchMojo seemed to forget to add was who gave Harry his father's invisibility cloak. It was revealed near the end of the first book, Sorcerer's or Philosopher's Stone, after Harry woke up in the hospital wing, that Dumbledore gave it to him.
Maybe, although I think they meant more of a bassinet than a true crib. Even if he had seen it, the same argument applies as to why he didn't see them at the end of GoF: naturally, a baby can't understand death.
You're absolutely right about the mirror, though.
@@Compucles Yeah, I have heard that J. K. Rowling said that to see the Thestrals, not only do you have to see death, but you also have to understand it, too. I find it a complicated situation, but you are totally right that babies don't understand death.
The movies definitely assumed that the audience had read the books. Without reading the books, there were a lot of plot holes in the movies.
Honestly (and I love HP so very much), the 3rd movie has always been a disappointment because it didn't explain the Marauders better. Similarly, Half-Blood Prince was one that made a lot of non-readers really angry, as I recall, because it left out so much.
I want a Marauders movie or TV show!
My biggest hate is the lack of quidditch in the movies
Barty Crouch jr - I'll show you mine if you show me your's.
Michael Scott - That's what she said.
fred and gorge also won alot of money from ludo bagman at the world cup
I love Harry Potter ❤
IT WAS ANSWERED IN THE BOOKS!
Apparently the one thing the books and films didn't teach you is that you do not pronounce the T in Vol-de-MOOR's last name! Ugh! Muggles!
How come nobody talks about the fact that it was Umbridge who sent the Dementors after Harry?
Without watching the video. The most important thing they did not explain in the movies was how Harry survived the killing curse from Voldemorte in the forbidden forest. Answer because Voldemorte took Harrry's blood when he recreated his body.
He didn't "survive" it he was given the chance to return because of his sacrifice.
It’s because you’re *supposed* to read the books before you watch the moviesssssss
My mom had us read a book and watch it’s movie after the book, and then move on to the next book and watch it’s movie after reading it
Thats so obvious
the more interesting question about the marauders map is - how did the Weasly twins figure out the password? at the time the twins stole the map from Filtches office they were 1st or 2nd year students...
That was never explained in the books, either. Rowling eventually said something about how the map would give reactions whenever they said some words from the password, thereby allowing them to figure it out by trial and error.
The map itself gave them a hint how use or open it. Maybe because they’re also up no good just not literally.
Did the books actually explain why he ended up with Ginny? I read them, might have missed that crucial part of building up the narrative connection between those two.
There were a lot more scenes that hinted at his growing affection for Ginny. One of them was when Slughorn introduced the amortentia potion which is supposed to smell like the thing you like the most. Harry smells the same thing later and it was revealed that the smell was coming from Ginny. There are scenes where Harry finds Ginny making out with Dean and his struggle to understand why it bothers him so much. Then there were parts where we see how much he is struggling with the fact that he facies his best friend's sister. He is also shown happy, though he doesn't openly show it, when Ginny breaks up with Dean. Lastly, after winning the match, he was just so happy that when he saw her in the common room, he kissed Ginny on impulse in front of everyone during the celebration for winning the Quidditch match leading to silence. He then brings her away to talk about it and they end up dating. Ron is shocked, but is ok with it even though he was so against Ginny's other boyfriends because per him, it's better to be his best mate than some random dude.
In The Order of the Phoenix, when Harry was calling Professor Dumbledore constantly and he didn’t hear him what did Harry want and why Dumbledore couldn’t here him?
That scene was a poor portrayal of Dumbledore's decision to distance himself from Harry during his fifth year. There are mainly two reasons why Dumbledore decided to distance himself from Harry. First, Dumbledore had started to suspect that Harry had a piece of Voldemort's soul inside him. As a result, Dumbledore did not want to put himself and Harry in a situation where Voldemort could act through Harry to attack him. Secondly, Dumbledore did not want Voldemort to know, through his connection with Harry, that Harry was an important person to him. Dumbledore hoped that by so doing, Harry won't be used as a weapon against him by Voldemort. Therefore, he gave Harry so much space that Dumbledore barely appeared in Book 5 until towards the end.
While the Harry Potter movies were overall pretty good adaptations, this is just further proof that entertainment adaptations will almost never fully live up to the original source material.
Plus, most of the rare times they actually do are because the original creator was heavily involved in the making of the adaptation.
Actually in Harry was allowed to go to Hogsmead in the 4-6 book because at the end of book three Harry tells the Dursleys he has a Godfather thats a murderer and that scares the Dursleys so as not to suffer his murderous Godfather's wrath they sign whatever Harry put in front of them.
That may have worked if Harry didn't already explicitly have a signed permission form from Sirius at that point.
Lupin didnt deserve to be sacked!
I thought the reason why Harry had never seen thestrals before was because he'd never taken the carriage upto the castle before and so he never had a chance to run into them until that point.
He took the carriage in both his 3rd and 4th years.
Harry saw Cedric die and could see Thestrals
So on the journey to the train to go home after 4th year.... why couldn't he see them?
Maybe they walked
Plothole but rowling explains that he hadnt quiet grasped the death in that time.
Totally amazing video of that was answered in the book then the movie of Harry Potters franchise watch mojo, fantastic job.

I've always wondered in the first part of the deathly hallows when the three got captured by the snatchers why they didn't disapporate ( hope I spelt that right) like they did when shinkly got them at Grimleys place
11. 'How did J.K. Rowling know Harry Potter was the chosen one to focus on his story?'
Anyway, here are the questions:
10. Why does the defence teacher always change? [0:36]
9. How did Harry know Lupin & Tonks had a son? [1:46]
8. Why is Harry allowed to go to Hogsmeade? [2:46]
7. How can Fred & George afford to open a shop? [3:48]
6. Why couldn't Harry see thestrals earlier? [4:48]
5. How did Dumbledore find the first 2 Horcruxes? [5:40]
4. How did Barty Crouch Jr. escape Azkaban? [6:33]
3. How did Voldemort's followers find the trio? [7:38]
2. Where did the two-way mirror come from? [8:33]
1. Who are the Marauders? [9:52]
The two-way mirror would have taken less than a minute to explain at the end of Order of the Phoenix. Why wouldn't they use that time?
The two-way mirror was an insult. Someone should've reminded Harry that it was in his possession days after receiving it and the death of Sirius may have been prevented for some time.
I don't think anyone else knew about it except Sirius. He received it as a present from Sirius, but didn't open it until everything was over and Sirius was already dead so even he didn't know about it yet.
When he gave it to Harry he told him it was a way to get in touch with him not exactly what it was so Harry forgot about it because he didn't want to give Sirius a reason to leave the house.
@@Amokra Still, it took months for Harry to remember that he had the mirror in the first place. Anyone else could've mentioned the bag in passing to remind Harry to look.
@@MrTimelord77 No one else knew about it Sirius slipped it to him and Harry hid it so he would not remember it himself. I do agree the movie should have shown his anguish at the realization of it.
@@Amokra Lupine could've had the knowledge due to his isolation. Also if Harry had his bag from book 7, then the contents would remain a secret.
Hey did u picked the person in ur community comments that said “next vid harry potter plz”
