Funny you say that because I bet they used forced perspective to make him look larger. Like they made his side of the subway set smaller and Harry's side normal side. Filmed from the angle they used it would all appear the same size and Hagrid much larger.
The extended Potions class scene and the Neville scene in the Great Hall were both included on the original VHS for the movie as bonus features at the end of the tape
"Dursleys seriously got neglected in the first film" ...ah, yes. And this is the best and (relatively) most complete movie portrayal of the family. They at least filmed the scenes for Deathly Hallows (just to cut almost all of them out), but GoF and HBP were absolutely ruthless in that regard.
Huge shame we didn't get the Weasleys coming through the Dudleys.. fireplace! Just one of the many reasons why I'm excited for the HBO series. So much got cut from the movies.
Amazing how Cuaron manage to have extended scenes of the bird flying around, but couldn't find time to explain the marauders map and their back story. Worst director ever.
@@CanadianLoveKnotCuaron did great with the vibes, but... Yeah the total lack of explanation about some the the most plot crucial stuff being cut was pretty bad and I imagine a movie only watcher would be a bit lost
@captain4318 Don't be too excited... The show is already hinting at being "updated" for a "modern audience". Rumor has it, Snape, who is pasty white as heck, is apparently going to be ebony black. Just more of Rowling changing crap to appease idiots instead of standing by her original writing. If she's willing to race swap a man who she LITERALLY described as pale and sallow multiple times in the books, who knows what else she'll change. Probably confirming Hermione as black, despite her again writing Hermione as pale and white, blushing and tanning. Heck, maybe Harry will actually be a "trnz" woman of colour for all we know. Or they'll race swap the Weasley family... Hollywood has a thing for race swapping red heads...
@dragonmaster1360 I work in the industry, and there is literally a diversity form the broadcaster requires you to submit, as well as to government agencies for tax credits. Highly doubt JK Rowling is the one casting the show. Her only input on the movies for casting was that it had to be all British cast.
Prisoner of Azkaban has like an unofficial official extended cut. Whenever marathons are shown on tv they play an extended cut of Azkaban which includes extended scenes of the bird flying around hogwarts before hitting the whomping willow, a great hall scene after the first visit in hogsmeade, sir cadagan in place of the fat lady etc. I’ve never seen it on any of the dvd sets, but it was always (if not most of the time) shown with the tv marathons
@@englishatheart You don't think Goblet of Fire/Half Blood Prince butchered the books more? I thought PoA was a pretty good adaptation, they just needed to explain the Marauders
It's a pity they didn't include these scenes. Thanks for showing them to us. I didn't know (up to now) that there was an extendet edition of the first two movies. Even if it's only a few minutes longer.
This is an excellent analysis and I noticed this sometime ago that Peacock had the reformatted versions with commercial break blackouts and Max had the theatrical versions. My one and only gripe (and it’s more of a petty complaint tbh) is that I wish they had the extended scenes without the commercial break fades, but otherwise they’re really great to see because it adds so much context to each scene. Watching the theatrical versions afterwards make them feel so condensed. This is a great analysis. Subbed! Thanks for the upload!
I think the moments they were missing the most here were the Ron being insightful or nice moments. Book Ron was beloved. Movie Ron would be lucky to be in the top 10 best character list. Still needs the Rik Mayall Peeves scenes. #Releasethepeevescut
@@Roadent1241 They actually audition an actor for Peeves and even shot some scenes but apparantly the actor was too funny and made all the kids laugh everytime, so they scrapped the idea of peaves.
I think the reason they cut some of these is for a very simple reason, pacing. While it might seem like the egg scene and the Troll aftermath scene could be kept those scenes just ruin the flow of the movie. The egg scene ruins the montage, and with the troll, it feels like the scene is ending, but then it just keeps going for a few seconds. The Hagrid scene is cut, because it’s unnecessary, like you said our imagination fills in the gaps with regards to Hagrid always wanting a Dragon, and also it includes items from the list that are later restated immediately after in the following scene. I feel like the other scenes are similarly cut for pacing reasons, but the final 2 deleted scenes I disagree the most with removing. The Christmas scene because it adds to the emotional storytelling of the sequence, and the Flamel one because it makes the cut to them discovering the stone feel less abrupt and out of nowhere, and like you said it’s a really crucial plot scene that really feels like it should be there. I also would’ve loved for the Dudley Smelting scene, because Dudley just appearing wearing that silly outfit is weird, and the Snape scene, which is a fantastic scene, would’ve been kept, but I think in the movie you already get the point that the Dursley’s and Snape suck from the screen time we already get, so they’re not strictly necessary. The movie is also already pretty long at 2 and a half hours so while adding 7 minutes might not seem like a lot, they probably felt the movie ended up feeling too slow with all of the deleted scenes in there. Having said all that I pretty much exclusively watch the extended edition of the first movie because those last 2 scenes really need to be there.
12:59 If you look closely at the cards here you can see they didn’t remove a few greenscreen fronts, probably because this was a deleted scene and no one noticed when it was reinserted.
As a kid I remember seeing the scene after the troll. Then, every time I watched the movie after that, I noticed the scene magically disappeared, so I thought I just created the scene in my head.
I like your new approach with pictures showing us what are you talking about. Previous loops of video fragments were a little distracting sometimes, especially when you were explaining something from the end of some scene while video went back to beginning or even another scene.
Yea I’m playing around with it. Not fully decided yet but might transition to a mixture of this style eventually. I just feel like it might be a little boring for some… I don’t want my videos to just feel like a slideshow. What are your thoughts?
Yes, a mixture would be nice. Images can help emphasize some moments, show characters that were cut from the scene or just mentioned in dialogue, and also to mention events from other chapters or books/movies.
The video yesterday confused me. I was positive that I got to come home after church and watch your newest video. So this video was a welcomed surprise.

There’s definitely an extended version of half blood prince, I’ve seen it on tv. The best extra scene a montage of people in hogwarts as a storm gathers and the choir singing a haunting song, right before Harry and Dumbledore return to the astronomy tower.
I first saw Philosopher's Stone on Australian TV in 2004 and it was the extended edition. I also recorded it from the TV around 2011 and it was again the extended edition. However, for Chamber of Secrets, I only remember them showing the standard edition. I actually had no idea these extra scenes were "deleted" until I saw a WatchMojo video listing some of the deleted scenes from Harry Potter.
Having read all the Harry Potter books multiple times, I can say this. I love the movies, they are timeless classics that everyone should watch. But, they did change or omit a lot from the books, which is why I'm all for a TV Show reboot, to cover that which the movies had to cut, and be a more faithful adaptation of the books.
I took my kids to see the movies on premier night, but at some point, I must have got the extended editions on DVD because I remember all of these things happening in the movies. I suppose it's possible that I misremember because I had already read the books.
those of us that grew up with the movies when they first came out had them on DVD - you could buy the extended version...you could also get dvds with deleted scenes etc. those growing up now with digital version tend to missout on all the bonus features. A lot of dvds even had commentaries
Those extended scenes do get aired from time to time regularly. Just check USA, Bravo, E!, & Scifi / Syfy. There is further analysis of the Snape scene which is interesting in why he chose the questions he did.
I can easily see why the train ride talking about the dragon was cut, if that’s all it was hen it could have been seen as a jump that was without a larger purpose
You really need to get the Ultimate Editions!! I first saw your short and mentioned it in a comment. There are more discs that go behind the scenes (one aspect per box...characters, creatures, creating the world of Harry Potter, etc). I'm not sure if they are all still in print, because I found all of them on ebay (separately....and at varying prices). I did notice that I think Chamber of Secrets and Half-blood Prince are in dvd format, where I was able get the blu ray version.
@factorfantasyweekly I know. Trouble is.....well for some people anyway...I ended up getting the 8-movie blu-ray set, because my others were in storage, and to get a corrected copy of Half-blood Prince. It had a scratch or something that made it skip from Ron in the hospital....right to the end of the movie. At least I now have 8 watchable movies. One part of the ultimate editions gets me in trouble with others who want to watch the movie....and that is the play by play with commentary. It does sort of a picture in picture, with the cast members talking about the making of the movies. James and Oliver Phelps, who played Fred and George do a good bit of the commentary during Goblet of Fire. Lol
That scenes were included at the VHS films at the very end after the end of the movie, then became part of the DVD’s special features. Later were added as extended editions. All the DVD and Blue Ray movies contains couple of this deleted scenes. Actually they’re hours of this deleted and non finished scenes that were filmed but didn’t were included at the final cut. It would be interesting have this very long cuts divided in chapters instead having a whole new version of the books with new actors for the upcoming series
Adaptations are the hardest to write. Especially if it’s a story you really, really like. You want to create the truest, most loyal version onscreen, but you also don’t want a page-by-page translation. Not only because it would be uncomfortably long, but feel pointless to the audience. (“We’ll, if this is just a duplicate of the book, I’ll just read the book, then!”) You also have to sometimes make tough choices regarding what to leave out. Often there are slight consequences from the fan base. Like all those people who asked Peter Jackson where Tom Bombadil had gone. But I heartily agree that anything left out that creates a plot hole or diminishes crucial character development ought to be left in. Either that or explained away organically in dialogue. The thing to remember is that every movie based on previously published material is known as the film “version.” The book should still exist. By the way, I admire your videos very much!
I actually like the final scene better. Even if Harry did it in the book because he got the card after sharing his chocolate frog, the fact that it is this version is very in line with Ron’s character. But, what it shows is that it takes all three of their personalities to solve the mystery. There are other scenes that show this as well, but I like this far better.
One issue I have with the theatrical version is the fact that harry says that Hagrid always wanted a dragon. The way Harry says that is as if the previous scenes are all coming together but the subway scene to help tie in is never shown so I knew for years something was missing. Dudley wearing that hat I kinda questioned and what Dumbledore told harry after finding him in front of the mirror of erised makes more sense since the theatrical version easily implies it all happened the same night. I prefer the extended cut from now on.
I was curious so I watched the Seamus scene, I actually thought he did pretty good, and I really liked the scene as a whole, and I thought the joke about his hair was funny too
I remember watching the extended version when i was young and a few years later when i watched it again, i didn't understand where are all those scenes, and my family said, that there weren't any of those scenes that i described.
Peacock is only in the US AND, they brought em down 3 months ago. Is there a way to watch em internationally? I've been busting my chops down to find em online
Yep! Going to do that bonus episode at the end of Season 2 of Movies vs. Manuscripts. Tune in each Sunday as right now I’m covering all the differences between the books and movies for Chamber of Secrets. 👀
I just binge-watched all 17 episodes in the series and am looking forward to starting "Chamber of Secrets" next week. I've read the book and watched the movie multiple times each, but it's amazing to me how some of these differences just flew by me. I guess when you're watching the movie you get caught up in its world, and aren't thinking about the book too much, and the same goes vice versa.
That’s awesome! Thanks for your support 🙏🏼 Yea it’s crazy how much I never noticed before until I literally was watching the scenes with the book open in my lap. Just goes to show how both are great in their own way! You can enjoy both on their own. But it’s cool to look into all the deeper lore and story arcs that the movie ignores!
I feel spoiled if these scenes were really cut in the version anybody watched, because I remember seeing every single one of these being in the movie aside from the one with Harry and Hagrid using public transportation.
There were always so many good moments missed out on in the movies. Jumping a little ahead to the chamber of secrets, I think there was a huge miss not adding in the trio going to Nick’s deathday party.
Actually they’re on the extended additions on peacock. Which is free and They don’t interrupt with commercials. You don’t need. Movies will never be like manuscripts.
I found the deleted scenes by accident in 2002, plaything through the first _Harry Potter_ DVD menus on a friend's PlayStation 2. The 'reward' for going through puzzles and trivia was unlocking 1 of several scenes. Some time after that it was on late at night on the weekend and had a few scenes to obviously pad the runtime + commercials to fill in the time slot accordingly. Of course they became less and eventually non-existent as the series progressed. Geez I miss those Fri/Sat/Sun nights when a channel like ABC or FOX, whatever, hosted a big movie night. They had grand intros, clever segues leading in and out of commercial breaks, and had a good chance to include scenes not available anywhere else. Disney was the best at it. So many memories. :( Edit: Just checking to see whether or not the stupid UA-cam bot deleted this comment for no particular reason.
@ the books are phenomenally great fantasy, author was a New York Times best seller at 19 and then the movie… the movie is brutal 😅 lotr, hp, and eragon are the most fun fantasy to me.
Ok something I just realize that doesn’t make a whole Lotta sense. Why were the Dursley’s be sending their golden boy child to boarding school but which means he would be gone nine months out of the year, but then Harry would go to a public school meaning he would be going home to them every day of the year doesn’t really make a whole lot of sense.
@@Faceplay2 it was more an issue of the better school because they always gave Dursley the best and it was Uncle Vernon's school so he took pride in his son going there sure they might see him at home more often but he's usually in his room furthermore they can separate their son from Harry as he didn't want to be associated with Harry at school this is typical of siblings if they don't get along and one seems strange he fears it will ruin his reputation at the school so he wants to make his own
@ yeah I understand in the book why she is going to that school because it’s the school his dad went to. I’m simply stating the fact that I find it funny that the kid that they can’t stand gets to stay in their house the entire year because he’ll be coming back from public school, but the kids that they love will be going to boarding school. Meaning he will be gone most of the year. That’s what I find funny and I don’t think J. K. Rowling thought of that lol in other words, Harry should’ve been going to a boarding school too, but like a crappy one
Tbh, I don't care if the rest are unofficial extended editions, I'll gladly accept them Also there's no reason this was cut, these movies are puny, I want more minutes to escape the world 😂
what you mean "cut" ? I saw the movie for first time 2 years ago and all these scenes where included (in german version). So i imagine they got rid of the "Normal" version... same happend with lord of the rings, people told me "have you seen this cut scene" and i was like yeah ofc its in the movie LOL
Nah, they changed it because they thought Philosopher's Stone would be too boring for American children. They figured Sorceror would be more exciting and sound more appealing. Nothing political about it. Just marketing.
I don’t like lord of the rings so I am never ever going to watch any of your movies vs manuscript except for the Harry Potter movies vs manuscripts then I will probably delete this channel permently from my favorites

Hagrid in a subway train really put's into perspective just how big he is as a half giant.
Puts*
Funny you say that because I bet they used forced perspective to make him look larger. Like they made his side of the subway set smaller and Harry's side normal side. Filmed from the angle they used it would all appear the same size and Hagrid much larger.
The extended Potions class scene and the Neville scene in the Great Hall were both included on the original VHS for the movie as bonus features at the end of the tape

Don't be too excited... The show is already hinting at being "updated" for a "modern audience". Rumor has it, Snape, who is pasty white as heck, is apparently going to be ebony black. Just more of Rowling changing crap to appease idiots instead of standing by her original writing.
If she's willing to race swap a man who she LITERALLY described as pale and sallow multiple times in the books, who knows what else she'll change. Probably confirming Hermione as black, despite her again writing Hermione as pale and white, blushing and tanning. Heck, maybe Harry will actually be a "trnz" woman of colour for all we know. Or they'll race swap the Weasley family... Hollywood has a thing for race swapping red heads...

Interestingly enough, they usually play the extended versions on TV now,but sometimes not all of the scenes.

@@alexsarria2476 I thought I was going mad, every once in a while I'll catch it on telly and see a quick scene that I have no recollection of at all

That's amazing.

Agreed! The fade out can be a little annoying. Like why not fix it? 😂
Thanks for watching!
The extended cut is worth it for the “What are friends for?” line from Ron alone ❤

ABC family channel always played the extended cuts, that’s why I was confused when I saw them on streaming and they were missing scenes I remember

Yep! Going to do that bonus episode at the end of Season 2 of Movies vs. Manuscripts. Tune in each Sunday as right now I’m covering all the differences between the books and movies for Chamber of Secrets. 👀
I just binge-watched all 17 episodes in the series and am looking forward to starting "Chamber of Secrets" next week. I've read the book and watched the movie multiple times each, but it's amazing to me how some of these differences just flew by me. I guess when you're watching the movie you get caught up in its world, and aren't thinking about the book too much, and the same goes vice versa.
That’s awesome! Thanks for your support 🙏🏼
Yea it’s crazy how much I never noticed before until I literally was watching the scenes with the book open in my lap. Just goes to show how both are great in their own way! You can enjoy both on their own. But it’s cool to look into all the deeper lore and story arcs that the movie ignores!
i first watched the films on peacock. turns out ive seen all these extended clips!
Sometimes the TV versions, show the extended release
Yup. I remember seeing an extended edition of GoF at a hotel once.
I feel spoiled if these scenes were really cut in the version anybody watched, because I remember seeing every single one of these being in the movie aside from the one with Harry and Hagrid using public transportation.
could you do a video like this about Scott Pilgrim VS The World?
There were always so many good moments missed out on in the movies. Jumping a little ahead to the chamber of secrets, I think there was a huge miss not adding in the trio going to Nick’s deathday party.
Doesn't the Goblet of Fire have the deleted scenes put back in the movies?
Yep
New scenes after all this time?
Excellent 😁
There are HP Extended editions?!?! Man i love this page 🤝
Ikr I was just as shocked!
I've never seen the extended movies 😮 I wanna see the extended movies!
What the heck is Peacock?
It’s a streaming service here in the US. I’m not sure if it’s international.
Loved All of.these !!
Actually they’re on the extended additions on peacock. Which is free and
They don’t interrupt with commercials. You don’t need. Movies will never be like manuscripts.
I found the deleted scenes by accident in 2002, plaything through the first _Harry Potter_ DVD menus on a friend's PlayStation 2. The 'reward' for going through puzzles and trivia was unlocking 1 of several scenes. Some time after that it was on late at night on the weekend and had a few scenes to obviously pad the runtime + commercials to fill in the time slot accordingly. Of course they became less and eventually non-existent as the series progressed.
Geez I miss those Fri/Sat/Sun nights when a channel like ABC or FOX, whatever, hosted a big movie night. They had grand intros, clever segues leading in and out of commercial breaks, and had a good chance to include scenes not available anywhere else. Disney was the best at it. So many memories. :(
Edit: Just checking to see whether or not the stupid UA-cam bot deleted this comment for no particular reason.
failing the exams do not result in expulsion.
I was so irritated when they stopped releasing the extended versions. I started buying that new set just because of those...
Is there a Die Hard extended edition?
What sass or snark? Harry told Snape someone else would know.
RIP Hagrid 🥺
I am lucky enough to have the extended copies of Movies one and two on DVD and these are the only versions I will watch!
Lucky!
Nowadays the extended versions would be played out everytime you want to watch a movie
Now do Eragon 😂😅❤ that movie broke my heart 😂😂
Sadly I’m not too familiar with it… but now I might give it a look 👀
@ the books are phenomenally great fantasy, author was a New York Times best seller at 19 and then the movie… the movie is brutal 😅 lotr, hp, and eragon are the most fun fantasy to me.
Awesome vid
Please do Chamber of Secrets next
That’s on the way! Keep an eye out 👀
Um, here’s a reason why all this was cut:
These are REALLY long movies!
LOTR extended cuts are nearly 4 hours. These add only a few minutes to the first film. 😂
They could afford the extended editions for the first two movies because there wasn't as much cut later books gain more content
Ok something I just realize that doesn’t make a whole Lotta sense. Why were the Dursley’s be sending their golden boy child to boarding school but which means he would be gone nine months out of the year, but then Harry would go to a public school meaning he would be going home to them every day of the year doesn’t really make a whole lot of sense.
Yea they didn’t think it through 💀😂
@ haha yep
@@Faceplay2 it was more an issue of the better school because they always gave Dursley the best and it was Uncle Vernon's school so he took pride in his son going there sure they might see him at home more often but he's usually in his room furthermore they can separate their son from Harry as he didn't want to be associated with Harry at school this is typical of siblings if they don't get along and one seems strange he fears it will ruin his reputation at the school so he wants to make his own
@ yeah I understand in the book why she is going to that school because it’s the school his dad went to. I’m simply stating the fact that I find it funny that the kid that they can’t stand gets to stay in their house the entire year because he’ll be coming back from public school, but the kids that they love will be going to boarding school. Meaning he will be gone most of the year.
That’s what I find funny and I don’t think J. K. Rowling thought of that lol in other words, Harry should’ve been going to a boarding school too, but like a crappy one
It's Dursleys. Apostrophes aren't used to make plurals.
What country are you in? I'm in the United States and neither of the extended editions are on there...
I've known about these deleted scene ever since I got the special edition dvds
Tbh, I don't care if the rest are unofficial extended editions, I'll gladly accept them
Also there's no reason this was cut, these movies are puny, I want more minutes to escape the world 😂
Some of the CD's have extended versions on them.
One thing i do miss is the deleted scene in Goblet of Fire is when they want to entertain their guests with the Hogwarts school song. Which is funny.
I have the extended version of this one, love them
you missed susan bones a hufflepuff is in several scenes with the griffindors and slytherins
I just watched all the films on Peacock and assumed they were a part of the original movies.
I always thought these scenes were in the original release
Extended Scene 3... It is her: Lady Blazer! 😂
Actual clips start at 3:10
when they play the moive on TV, it includes these scenes
what you mean "cut" ? I saw the movie for first time 2 years ago and all these scenes where included (in german version). So i imagine they got rid of the "Normal" version... same happend with lord of the rings, people told me "have you seen this cut scene" and i was like yeah ofc its in the movie LOL
actually it's called the philosopher stone the Americans changed it because they are far left
Nah, they changed it because they thought Philosopher's Stone would be too boring for American children. They figured Sorceror would be more exciting and sound more appealing. Nothing political about it. Just marketing.
All you want to do is talk. Play the scenes for goodness sake.
This guy likes to hear himself talk, get to the point dude!
Die hard fans of lotr would like a Not Peter Jackson version.
I don’t like lord of the rings so I am never ever going to watch any of your movies vs manuscript except for the Harry Potter movies vs manuscripts then I will probably delete this channel permently from my favorites
What a snarky comment to someone that you gaining some benefit from. Very, very rude.
