You're really observant! I've watched hundreds of people reacting to the Harry Potter films, but absolutley no one has picked up on nearly as many things as you. You also know a lot of references from simply just knowing them, such as Lupin meaning werewolf etc. I am looking forward to watching the rest of your reactions, you seem very smart :) Very enjoyable videos so far!
By the way, both of Harry's parents were wizards. His mother was a muggleborn and is not considered as having wizards blood so he is considered a half blood.
For some reason the "It's going to be bumpy ride!" line is one of my favourite lines in all of Harry Potter. Ever since I watched the movie for the first time as a kid it's been stuck in my head.
You were right about Pettigrew "being literally a rat". In the official additional materials it is clarified that to become an Animagus, a very complex ritual has to be performed, and the animal cannot be chosen - it is the one that the person resembles the most (spiritually, if you know what I mean). This animal almost always matches the one that the Patronus takes the shape of, except that the Patronus's form may change if the owner has an extreme emotional breakdown. (Also, the Patronus may take two forms: a shield and an animal. Lupin's is a wolf, but he always uses the shield form because he is afraid that the wolf would make it obvious who he is). Also, in the book it is explained that the dementors came to the Quidditch match because of all the excitement and joy of the audience (it was "a real feast" for them)
Sirius attacked the Fat Lady, because he was trying to get into Gryffindor tower. The trips to Hogsmead are for 3rd years and up. The map was was made by Moony = Remus = Werewolf Wormtail = Pettigrew = Rat Paddfoot = Sirius = Dog Prongs = James Potter = Stag
You are one of the first reactors I've seen to instantly make the connection between Lupin and why he was afraid of the full moon. Knowing what Lupin refers to helps a lot.
A whole lot of the names and magical stuff in the Harry Potter Universe is based on Latin root words so if you have a good knowledge of etymology you’ll usually have a good bit of foreshadowing that others won’t learn until the actual explanation/reveal.
17:40 in the first movie the trio saw Harry's father trophy as a seeker... Muggle don't go to wizard's school you know... Now the correct way to address it is: Muggle 🤍 & Magic 🖤 - Harry and Ron is "pure blood" as Draco has it, with both Magic parents. 🖤🖤=🖤 - Seamus as he says he's half and half, is half blood with Magic + Muggle parents. 🤍🖤=🖤 - Hermione and Lily (HP's mom) is Muggle-Born and Draco has is "mud blood" with no magical parents. 🤍🤍=🖤 - Flecher is a Squib, a human with Magic parents but born with no magical talents. 🖤🖤=🤍 - Dudley is a Muggle. Non magic folk as said by Hagrid. 🤍🤍=🤍
also Harry’s dads patronus was a Stag (same as Harry’s) and he could also transform into a stag since he was an animagus . Wish they explained this in the movies
To answer your question about who can and can’t use magic. Underage wizards have “the Trace” on them, which is like an alarm that goes off if they cast spells outside of school. “The Trace (incantation unknown) was a charm which allowed the Ministry to know of magic cast in the vicinity of wizards and witches who were under seventeen years of age. When any magical activity was performed in the vicinity of the underage individual, the Improper Use of Magic Office within the Ministry of Magic was alerted to the spell that was used, and to the location of the caster and the time it was cast. The charm allowed the Ministry to track underage magic, which was banned under the Decree for the Reasonable Restriction of Underage Sorcery. The Trace automatically broke upon a wizard or witch's seventeenth birthday.” After seventeen you’re allowed to do magic anywhere.
"So Dementors aren't bad." Well, technically they are considered bad. They are a form of "spirit" that wanders about and sucks the soul out of basically anyone. There is no real known way to deal with them other than the Partronus charm. Everything else they just completely ignore. The reason why Azkaban's prison warden are Dementors, is the fact that Azkaban itself is not only special, but an "enigma" so to say. Azkaban used to be the castle of an old dark wizard (sadly forgot the name right about now) that lured people (iirc mostly muggles) in and tortured them. The castle itself was completely hidden from sight and sense by some form of magic. Only after the dark wizard died, did the castle become visible. When the ministry inspected the castle, they found that an unusually large herd of Dementors were inhabiting the castle for reasons unknown (but probably because they feed on negative emotion and well, torture is pretty negative). Shortly afterwards they just decided to use the chance of a castle filled with dementors to make a prison out of it. Why in the hell they would send those "we attack anything, whenever we want" spirits to capture Sirius is anyones guess, but that might be in some way because of Rowlings "I'll just make shit up as I go." mentality she had while writing the books and the subsequent pieces of lore.
So, despite being a great film, it left out quite a lot of context and info. The marauders map was made by James Potter, Sirius Black, Remus Lupin, and Peter Pettigrew while they were all in school together. Lupin was attacked by a werewolf called Fenrir grayback when he was a child. Dumbledore made special accommodations so that he could attend Hogwarts, but he would stay in the shrieking shack when he transformed into a werewolf… Hence the rumors that the shack was haunted. The rest of The marauders underwent a long process to become anamagi so that they could keep Lupin company while he was changed. Peter became a rat, Sirius became a dog, and James became a stag. Hence their names on the marauders map: Mooney, worm tail, pad foot, and prongs. And that’s just the tip of the iceberg😅
Funny you should mention that Voldemort should just teach defense against the dark arts since they can't keep a teacher in that position. He's actually the reason they can't keep anyone in that position. He once applied to teach it, before he rose to power, but Dumbledore wouldn't hire him. He cursed the position in retaliation, and no one's held the job for more than one school year since.
13:10 - one of the first decisions the director of this movie (Alfonso Cuaron) took was to allow the students to dress as they would at their actual schools 25:20 - On the chocolate; Lupin just knows his cures. in the books the Hogwarts nurse (Madam Poppy) actually is impressed that there is finally a Defense Against the Dark Arts teacher who actually knows remedies.
Pure blood wizards/witches have no Muggle (non-magical) ancestors. James Potter was a Pureblood. The Malfoys, the Longbottoms, the Weasleys, the Blacks & the Lestranges are Pure Blood families. Muggleborns or Mudbloods (which is considered a very offensive term) are wizards/witches that have non-magical parents. Hermione, Lily Potter, Dean Thomas, Justin Finch-Fletchley, Colin & Dennis Creevy are Muggleborn. Half-Bloods have both magical & non-magical parentage or ancestry. Most wizards & witches are Half-Bloods. Harry Potter had magical parents but his maternal grandparents were Muggles. Voldemort’s mother was a witch but his father was a Muggle. Same for Snape & Seamus Finnegan. Hagrid’s father was a wizard but his mother was a giantess. Half-Blood doesn’t strictly mean one parent was magical & one was not. Anyone with Muggle ancestors is considered a Half-Blood even if the Muggle was several generations back. A Squib is someone who’s parents are magical but who doesn’t have any magical abilities themselves. Argus Filch the Hogwarts caretaker is a Squib & so is Arabella Figg, who you will see in the 5th movie. Hope that explains everything & I’m enjoying the reactions.
Happy to see that you know your latin ^^ You must be the first reactor to guess for Lupin ! Bravo :) ( I was hooked when you talk about the constellation for Sirius too ! )
It takes a lot of practice and powerful magic to make a fully formed patronus, it's explained in the books that kids in younger grades can't usually do it.. Also, Harry keeps fainting because dementors they suck your soul and leave you with only your sad/painful memories, when Harry sees a dementor he hears his mother screaming in his head when she was killed protecting him.. There's a lot lost in translation between books and movies, we don't get a lot of the character's thoughts..
Potter falls over even when dementors aren't around. I don't think there's a been a film yet where he hasn't fallen over, I love it :) It's something to look forward to!
This one is my absolute favourite Harry Potter movie. The whole theme, the time travel and the nostalgia, as this is the movie I remember the most from my childhood. This one will always be special to me.
Think about it like this, this isn't a series just about Harry Potter vs. Voldemort. This is a narrative meant to open up a whole new world of magic and to immerse the reader and audience completely into this world to the point where you don't want to meant it. The world building happens more and more each one... along with the maturation of the characters, themes, and ideas. You're going on what is probably the greatest coming-of-tale ever conceived.
Lupin is a werewolf since he was a child. His best friends James, Sirius and Peter found out and wanted to join him while he is transformed, so they decided to become animagi. Werewolfs dont attack anmagi, so they could be together. Turning into an animagus is a hard and long magical process. You cant decide which animal you turn into - it wil be the same as your patronus, your "spirit animal" James, Sirius and Peter haven't told anyone that they became animagi. But there are a few registered animagi, for example professor Mcgonagall, who is a cat.
It's actually 2 stars together, which is interesting because the name/story of Remus and Romulus (which you can see when Snape is doing the Werewolves class) is about 2 brothers, so I thought maybe Black and Lupin were brothers :P
Still my favorite one after all these years, although the last film is a close second. It has that childhood nostalgia associated with it for me and marks the beginning of the series getting darker, which I love. Can't tell you how many times I rewatched the DVD and played the bonus features game lol. Not to mention it introduces us to two awesome characters, Sirius and Lupin. 🐶🐺🌙 Not many reactors pick up on the clues in Lupin's name. I'm glad you did. 🙂
your correct about the name Sirus taken from the star. JK rowling named several of her characters after stars and constilations, characters all connected to a specific family keep ur eye out
probably been explained in the live chat..but harry is a half-blood..his dad James is from a wizard family..his mom Lilly is a muggle born witch (like Hermione) her parents (and sister Petunia) aren't magic but she had powers..
Glad to see you're enjoying the series so far! All of the books have things that were removed or changed in the movies, but this is the first one where they really start leaving bigger chunks out (ex: the origins of the Marauders Map). When you finish the film series, I think you'd really enjoy the novels.
wow - you are good at getting hints! congratz! If I am allowed to have a guess - you'll probably be a Ravenclaw. and yes, Richard Harris died, so they had to find a replacement. sadly. JKR wrote the dementors to represent depression - they suck every happy thought out of you.
I so agree that Ron is a legend! It might not seem like he's very good at magic sometimes BUT if you keep in mind that because his parents are poor he has to use a hand-me-down wand that didn't fit or choose him, he's brilliant.. Plus he's got all the street smarts to compliment Hermione's book smarts.. Harry's fame is just because Voldemort happened to choose him as being part of a prophecy and kind of an accident, although having to spend summers with the Dursley's is punishment enough for special treatment at school..
Every full Patronus is corporeal, and it represent something like your spirit guardian. The words "Expecto Patronum" mean "I expect (or await) guardian." The Dementors are methapor for depression and can force bad memories and dread you experienced. The worse things you saw, the worse they can affect you because they are bringing up those menories and feelings back, and Harry witnessed his parents murder. That's why they affected him more than other kids his age. In the book he did not only hear his mothers screams, but he also saw her and his father on the night they were murdered. He went through hard time because he felt guilty he wanted to hear and see them again one more time, and he wanted to learn fight against Dementors at the same time. His Patronus is decribed pretty different in the books, I assume they were saving on CGI. He was alone at the lake, Hermione stayed with Buckbeak at Hagrids house. Here's the part from the books. "Harry raised his head to look at the circle of Dementors across the lake. One of them was lowering its hood. It was time for the rescuer to appear - but no one was coming to help this time - And then it hit him - he understood. He hadn’t seen his father - he had seen himself - Harry flung himself out from behind the bush and pulled out his wand. ‘EXPECTO PATRONUM!’ he yelled. And out of the end of his wand burst, not a shapeless cloud of mist, but a blinding, dazzling, silver animal. He screwed up his eyes, trying to see what it was. It looked like a horse. It was gal-loping silently away from him, across the black surface of the lake. He saw it lower its head and charge at the swarming Dementors… now it was galloping around and around the black shapes on the ground, and the Dementors were falling back, scattering, retreating into the darkness … they were gone. The Patronus turned. It was cantering back towards Harry across the still surface of the water. It wasn’t a horse. It wasn’t a unicorn, either. It was a stag. It was shining brightly as the moon above … it was coming back to him … It stopped on the bank. Its hooves made no mark on the soft ground as it stared at Harry with its large, silver eyes. Slowly, it bowed its antlered head. And Harry realised … ‘Prongs,’ he whispered. But as his trembling fingertips stretched towards the creature, it vanished." P.S. His father was animagus stag (also one of the creators of the map), and his nickname was Prongs. Harry only knew what was his fathers nickname, as Sirius did not have time to tell him what animal he was.
I've learned at least 2 things from you in the first 10 minutes. One about the Sirius star constellation (I knew it was a star, just not a dog constellation). Then about the symbol on Sirius's prison photo. Looking forward forward forward to learning more things like this!
Cary Grant's character in Charade is called Cruikshanks. It was helping the dog into the castle. Even stole Neville's list of passwords and gave it to the dog. The Fat Lady didn't allow him in the first time without a password and he slashed her. The second time he used a password and she let him in.
There is also another connection with the names, not known to many: in the 1800s there was a surgeon by the name of Thomas Joseph Pettigrew who worked with an artist called George Cruikshanks, who illustrated his work. They unrolled ancient mummies in public performances and published a couple of books together. Pettigrew was so well connected to big names, writers, secret societies and cults, that he was asked by the Duke of Hamilton to mummify his body after his death, which he apparently did. (those who have finished the HP series know the significance of this)
-if you go back and watch the original punching scene, you can see future Hermione's hand on a stone wall in the background. -And no, Harry's mom was a witch, but SHE was muggle born. Petunia, her sister, didn't get any powers. -Once you're 17 you can do magic at your own discretion, you just can't cause a scene amongst muggles. -Animagus and werewolf aren't the same.
I do not know if you have seen this movie or not, but the actress that plays Marge is the same actress that played Trunchbull in the original Matilda movie.
harry's dad was pureblood and his mother was a muggle born like hermione. so harry is a halfblood. both of the parents have to be pureblood for child to be a pureblood, so pureblood families like malfoys or weasleys are rare and almost always related. so draco and ron are distantly related
The invisibility cloak is Harry’s family Heirloom it was always his property and Hermione got the time term with special permission to take extra classes
"Expecto Patronum" is the incantation of the spell. Successfully casting it produces a Patronus which at full strength is in the shape of an animal that reflects an aspect of your personality. At lesser strength it manifests as a mist of varying intensity depending on the strength of the caster. They did a poor job representing it in this movie as it should have looked like a stag both times. Fixing a pair of glasses is relatively simple where as fixing eyes would be a much more complicated thing. Well beyond 3rd year students. In this way magic, although amazing is the same as any other discipline. It was funny when you said that they are running out of Dark Arts teachers so they might as well let Voldemort have the job. The reason it is funny is because Voldemort, when he was still Tom Riddle applied for the position. When Dumbledore turned him down he cursed the position so that no one could hold it for more than a year. Pettigrew/Scabbers didn't kill Harry before because he had no reason to. He didn't join Voldemort because he is a true believer but rather because he is a coward. He believed that Voldemort would win so he was looking out for himself. If he was discovered then both sides would want to kill him since Voldy's followers would blame him for their masters demise. Better to hide out as a rat and be taken care of.
That's incredible that you immediately knew the reference to the dog star and also put together Lupin's name and boggart form and guessed he was a werewolf on the spot. I remember as a kid reading articles on mugglenet and being blown away by the effort put into the character names, specifically Sirius and Lupin. And I've never seen someone watch the movies and just know these facts off the top of their head.
I was glad to see you reference runes and astronomy and Latin. Harry jumps at living with Sirius because he cant stand living at Privet Dr. The Scabbers loophole is seriously gross, because he was Percy's rat first and the twins have had the map since they were first years. They are 2 years older than Harry/Ron and 2 years younger than Percy
Haven’t watched the video where you find out your house, but your low tolerance for Harry’s shortcomings is definitely giving Slytherin and I love it lol
I agree on Slytherin but I definitely do not like the hating on Harry. It's a cheap trick but then again - Slytherin....not saying you have to love him but you're too heavily negatively biased
Harry's mum and dad were both magical, but his mum was 'muggle born' - meaning neither of her parents was magical - just like Hermione. It happens sometimes; a witch or wizard can be born to non-magical parents. The opposite, a non-magical child born to magical parents, is called a 'squib' and in the books we learn that Filch is a squib.
@Cinobite Reacts Just a side note [since you "like" house elves this much]: - they are basically "magic slaves" (but most of them dont really mind, because "serving a wizard family" is their life purpose); Hermione tried freeing these elves in a later book [not shown in a movie] by leaving knitted caps and other clothes lying around under some rubbish ... but the elves rejected them - there are about 50 of them in Hogwarts ... who do all the cleaning and cooking (there is an identical "feast hall" right below the one the kids eat in, which is where the elves stack the food from the kitchen on the tables ... until the food gets transported up at the start of the meal)
I'm playing the game at the moment and found out that under the dining hall is the kitchen with the same table layout and the elves put it on those and it magics up to the tables upstairs!
So both Harry parents are wizard/witch. His mother was like Hermione (muggle parents) Harry's father was a pure blood whos family goes back many generations. Snape went to school with Harry's parents, Sirius, and lupin . Snape and Harry's dad hated each other. I would have seen a ventriloquist mime
Chocolate just makes you naturally happy and the Dementors feed off your happiness so when Harry faints due to the dementors the Chocolate helps him get back to normal
I appreciate you being knowledgable of history and mythology. So few reactors are, so they don't pick up on the details. You'd probably have a blast looking into all of the names.
Harry's dad is a pureblood wizard, his mom is a muggle born wizard just like Hermione, so he is a half blood wizard because is mom is not from a wizard family
A patronus is a corporeal representation of the caster. Harry’s is a stag which is the same as his father’s. Not sure why they didn’t show the stag the second time. Another thing is not all witches and wizards are good at magic. And sometimes you have squibs who can’t do magic at all. As a result you will sometimes see witches and wizards not using magic because it would be easier to just do it than use magic that you might struggle with.
@@CinobiteReacts a low level patronus is just the light shield and will fend off a small number. A full patronus takes the form of an animal that acts as a shield. It stays for as long as the caster is focused on the spell and can be controlled by them. Dementors feed off your happy memories and leave you with only your darkest ones. The patronus is made of your happiest memory. Since it is not real the dementors can't feed off it and it drives them away.
The hufflepuff who fell was saved also. They just didn't show it. It's fine not to like a character, but you purposely get irritated with Harry over things he couldn't control or anytime someone treats him nice given what he experienced and continues to experience. He never killed voldemort. He killed Quirrell and destroyed a memory in a book. He didn’t look for the trouble, they look for him. And the Dementors affected him more because he has less happy memories and more horrors.
He still isn't the best, but you'll be pleased to know he wins me around in the last film :) But if you think this is bad, just wait until Dobby shows up 🤣🤣🤣 Thank you for watching the videos though, it's very much appreciated 😁💗
Azkaban is my FAVORITE Harry Potter film! I think two let of Fire is a close second! I’m glad you enjoyed it so much. I really appreciate the historical insight you provided in this one as well, like the historical context of were in werewolf with wer and werman and the fact that serious black was named for a star, I knew serious had something to do with the stars but I had no idea that the constellation was a dog! Crazy!
Chocolate releases endorphins or so. Endorphins make you happy. Happiness helps against a Dementor attack. You become an empty husk after the Dementor's kiss. The patronus is supposed to be a stag, like his father. It charges at the Dementors and shooes them away. In the second rendering they just showed light, probs ran out of money.
@@CinobiteReacts you kind of answered your own question there. The patronus is made from happy memories so it draws/forces the dementors away by giving them a decoy to feed on that's more appealing than a person. The patronus doesn't destroy anything. JK has apparently stated that Demntors can't be killed because they weren't/aren't living creatures.
I like this review because you revealed random factoids that apparently are clues.. Like Sirius being a secret protector and named after a constellation.. And the shrunken heads
you should definitely react to the Fantastic Beasts in the future! Also the nicknames; Prongs: James Potter Wormtail: Peter Pettegrew Moony: Remus Lupin Padfoot: Sirius Black One thing they didn’t mention in this movie was a really important thing involving Snape and James as; Sirius telling Snape how to get past the Whomping Willow as thus nearly getting him killed by a transformed Remus Lupin, which is when Sirius took advantage of Remus for a sake of a so called “prank” until James figured was Sirius was up to and saved Snape before it was too late, Snape indebted to James Potter because of this, disgusted by this. Dumbledore claims it’s a Life-debt.
29:51 at this moment alfonso cuarón the director told remus lupin to act like a lover towards Sirius until they figured out in movie 5, Tonks came along to be lupin’s actual lover😂
If you want a horror suggestion "I am not a serial killer" is pretty great. Christopher Lloyd plays such a stand out role in the movie. In answer to your question, underage witches and wizards are allowed to do magic in the presence of an adult witch or wizard (seventeen or older) and they are allowed to do magic when there are no muggles around. That's why the letter from the ministry mentioned the hover charm in chamber of secrets. They assumed it was harry because a house elf should never be in a muggle dwelling and the only other magic user in the house would be harry himself. The trace informs the ministry if magic is used in the presence of muggles specifically (I say this as vaguely as I did in an attempt to not provide spoilers, not because I'm not aware of future events in the series.) The patronus is the result of the spell, expecto patronum is the words used to focus the spell. He's giving him chocolate because chocolate causes the body to create happy chemicals and the reason the dementors go after harry so hard is because they feed on horrible memories and emotions and get stronger the more traumatic the memories are that they are feeding on.
So Fred and George had this map, say Ron sleeping with someone named Peter pettigrew and never said a word… good on them for respecting his privacy. Also in the end credits with the map there’s an Easter egg of two footsteps overlapping each other in opposite detections (doing it).
LOL, there should be a warning not to be drinking liquids when watching this, you had me cracking up! Interesting story about Dementors. They were meant to be symbolic of the depression that Rowling went through at one point. People who experience them normally say "it felt like I'd never be cheerful again".
fun fact. when Hermione punches Draco, it was a real punch. Emma Watson was having trouble with the fake slap. so Tom Felton after several takes told Emma to "hit him for real." he braced for the slap. but Emma punched him. after words shocked she appoligies and said "you did tell me to hit you." but Tom Felton being a good sport and a good actor just let it go and was professional about the whole thing. after the last film was made Emma Watson said she had a crush on Tom Felton. I say, kids: we hurt the ones we like the most.
His patronus is a stag because his father, who was an animagus, was able to turn into a stag. Thats hy he thought it was his dad that conjured it because he didnt know he could produce a full blown patronus charm and since it was a stag it made sense that it was connected to his father
I don’t know if it’s emotionally, tonight, but the reason why Petticrew didn’t try to harm hairy, is because of fear. Since now you have finished the films, Dumbledore had always known. There was a near 100% possibility of Voldemort, returning, and Pettigrew knew that when he came back, he would want to get rid of hairy personally.
It's been a while since I read the books [well, listened to the audiobooks] but I believe in The Chamber of Secrets, Hermione actually was more involved in the movie, except it was in side stories which were not included in the movie - so it wasn't that the actress was not available, but rather her parts in the book were not included in the movie. Oh, and the chocolate thing - the book says that it is the standard way to treat the dispair Dementors cause.
She had a magical ancestor. Magic doesn't just appear in Muggle families, there has to be a contributing ancestor, then it's just a matter of time until someone is born with magical ability.
@xiphos8219 perhaps, but unless we assume that magical people are not human, at some point magic had to enter into humanity and that means it could happen again. Now the matter is not addressed in the books so you can assume at the beginning there were magical people and non- magical people and they intermixed, but it is just a possible that there were just humans and at some point some developed magic. From my view, that is more reasonable. That would mean that it could happen again. But your view is equally valid.
IT IS MY LONGEST COMMENT EVER. PRESS READ MORE AT YOUR OWN RISK. ANSWERS TO YOUR QUESTIONS. DOESN'T CONTAIN ANY MOVIE SPOILERS, BUT IT CONTAINS BOOK SPOILERS. 1:01 It isn't that simple story. Great things lie ahead to experience. 2:15 Yeah. They aren't allowed to do magic from joining Hogwarts till age 17. It is a movie mistake. 4:18 Yeah, Harry is a half-blood. His mom and dad were both wizards. But his dad James belongs to a pureblood family whereas his mom Lily belongs to a pure muggle family like Hermione. Lily and Aunt Petunia are sisters. 4:38 Death Eaters are the army of Voldemort 5:25 The heads weren't in the books. It was an imagination of the director. This movie has the best director so far. 6:47 Good knowledge. Sirius's whole family is named after stars, galaxies and constellations. Like Orion Black, Arcturus Black, Regulus Black, Bellatrix Black, Andromeda Black etc. 11:03 Richard Harris(Old Dumbledore) passed away before the shooting of this film started. This new Dumbledore is a bit off the character in 3rd and 4th movies. But after that, he became my favourite Dumbledore. 11:43 Dementors are bad. Ministry made a deal with them to provide prisoners to suck good memories and in exchange they guard Azkaban. Dumbledore hates them and protested in ministry to not make them guards because they can turn back at any point. 16:04 Neville is scared of Snape so much because Snape Always bullies him and Gryffindor. In books, he almost poisoned Neville's toad before that Boggart class. 19:55 Quidditch won't end until the snitch is found. The snitch adds 150 points to the catching team. But the team that has the most point wins the game irrespective of the catcher of the snitch. The longest quidditch match was about 3 months because the snitch got lost. 22:17 Yeah. That is the full form patronas that can turn into an animal. But, Harry isn't yet able to produce it properly. In Wizarding world patronas animal of someone can transform to match the patronas animal of its lover. 25:22 Dementors are a symbol of depression. So, Lupin gave him chocolate. It is a medical reference. 26:38 The lines, and the torn clothes are a way to represent Lupin's hard life being a werewolf. 32:06 "Dementor's kiss" suck the soul out of the body. 32:42 Peter always tried to stay with the powerful one to be safe. He doesn't care about good, bad, or missions as long as he is alive. While fighting with Sirius after betraying James and Lily, he killed 12 muggles and escaped by leaving his finger so the ministry thought Sirius is a mass murderer. 35:00 In the books, Remus just explained to him that his father's patronas animal is a stag before that moment. 36:12 The Time Turner is given to Hermione by Dumbledore in books. It is a very powerful thing so they need permission from the ministry and Dumbledore vowed for Hermione. But it created a lot of plot holes so JK Rowling destroyed all the time turners in a scene in 5th book. It isn't in the movies. 40:03 Because it was a stag. The CGI team didn't try to make the Stag a second time I think. But in books, it clearly said a stag was formed from his wand. It is Percy Weasley and Oliver Wood's (Gryffindor's Head boy and Quidditch Captain respectively) last year. And Harry's team won the final quidditch match that year. Marauder's Map is created by the Marauders. Marauders are, James Potter - Prongs (Stag) Sirius Black - Padfoot (Dog) Remus Lupin - Moony (Wolf) Peter Pettigrew - Wormtail (Rat) When Lupin joined Hogwarts, Dumbledore became aware of his condition and planted the Whoomping Willow tree and made a tunnel to the Shrieking Shack. Every full moon, Lupin go there and transformed into Werewolf and make wolf noises there. Dumbledore had spread rumours that it is a haunted place to keep Lupin safe. But soon the 3 marauders find out about Lupin's condition and accompany him for some years learned to turn into animals illegally and they did and nobody knows about them. They took advantage of their condition and found out many secrets of Hogwarts and made the marauders map, with all the secret passages and places.
This is also a time to revisit what I said some time ago, which is that my patronus is an occamy according to the quiz 😀 You're safe to Google and read the summary and look at the first picture results. I'm inordinately proud of that, even if it's likely some kind of randomized thing.
my boggart? as a kid a Maths exam - probably XD I hated maths exams so badly now maybe my family in mortal danger though with all the things going on in Ukraine XD
Finally one of these reaction series that I am not too late to be a part of! Yes! :) I really enjoy your humor although I am getting seriously aggravated at your digs at Harry xD At the moment, I am sticking it out, just to see if you ever change your perspective though ^^ Also keep in mind that the movies gloss over a lot of things from the books and that book-harry isn't really living the golden life. I really do like your take on Ron though
Harry beat Voldy three times as of now. Once when his parents died, in the first year and then the second year. Voldy losing his touch. The rat was safe being a rat, both sides would go after him. He got Sirius sent to Azkaban and couldn't reveal himself because he was supposed to be dead and a hero.
The Bogart would have turned into a zombie probably. those are the only things that give me nightmares. This is where large armunts of back information start getting dropped from the movie. Such as how Snape knew where to find them in the shrinking shack. Why he hates Sirius and Lupin so much, as well as Harry's dad. The Patronus only taking an animal shape if it's strong enough etc. One of my favorite details in this movie is the subtle ticking sound in the background when Harry and Hermionie are in the past.

I completely didn't realise Dumbledore had changed! Let me know what you would have seen when the Boggart came out..
I'm terrified of lizards, so that's what my Boggart would be. 🙈
Being blind. I love reading, movies and tv and being able to see children smile, especially my family.
@@toodlescae I read that 3 times before I realised that you're not blind already 🤣 I was wondering how you typed in chat so quick 😛
You should do a reaction to Hamilton some time it would be fun to see your reaction
My boggart would be myself homeless since my rent is being raised every 3 months & now paying it has become a struggle.
You're really observant! I've watched hundreds of people reacting to the Harry Potter films, but absolutley no one has picked up on nearly as many things as you. You also know a lot of references from simply just knowing them, such as Lupin meaning werewolf etc. I am looking forward to watching the rest of your reactions, you seem very smart :) Very enjoyable videos so far!
Thank you so much!
By the way, both of Harry's parents were wizards. His mother was a muggleborn and is not considered as having wizards blood so he is considered a half blood.
she herself has wizard blood but her family doesn't. But yes, Harry is considered half blood
For some reason the "It's going to be bumpy ride!" line is one of my favourite lines in all of Harry Potter. Ever since I watched the movie for the first time as a kid it's been stuck in my head.
You were right about Pettigrew "being literally a rat". In the official additional materials it is clarified that to become an Animagus, a very complex ritual has to be performed, and the animal cannot be chosen - it is the one that the person resembles the most (spiritually, if you know what I mean). This animal almost always matches the one that the Patronus takes the shape of, except that the Patronus's form may change if the owner has an extreme emotional breakdown. (Also, the Patronus may take two forms: a shield and an animal. Lupin's is a wolf, but he always uses the shield form because he is afraid that the wolf would make it obvious who he is).
Also, in the book it is explained that the dementors came to the Quidditch match because of all the excitement and joy of the audience (it was "a real feast" for them)
The way you mentioned Sirius being a black dog over the stars but didn't make the connection is so funny
Sirius attacked the Fat Lady, because he was trying to get into Gryffindor tower.
The trips to Hogsmead are for 3rd years and up.
The map was was made by
Moony = Remus = Werewolf
Wormtail = Pettigrew = Rat
Paddfoot = Sirius = Dog
Prongs = James Potter = Stag
I kept thinking that "wormtail" sounded like something I should know :P
I wish the movies would have explained that. Unless you read the books that goes right over your head.
You are one of the first reactors I've seen to instantly make the connection between Lupin and why he was afraid of the full moon. Knowing what Lupin refers to helps a lot.
Thanks :D
A whole lot of the names and magical stuff in the Harry Potter Universe is based on Latin root words so if you have a good knowledge of etymology you’ll usually have a good bit of foreshadowing that others won’t learn until the actual explanation/reveal.
@@AdamNisbett Yeah I find that kind of funny ^^ Like the name Sirius Black is so obvious that it's the black dog haha
Ron is the man for real! Nobody ever points out how accurate his tea leaves were.....lol
17:40 in the first movie the trio saw Harry's father trophy as a seeker... Muggle don't go to wizard's school you know...
Now the correct way to address it is: Muggle 🤍 & Magic 🖤
- Harry and Ron is "pure blood" as Draco has it, with both Magic parents. 🖤🖤=🖤
- Seamus as he says he's half and half, is half blood with Magic + Muggle parents. 🤍🖤=🖤
- Hermione and Lily (HP's mom) is Muggle-Born and Draco has is "mud blood" with no magical parents. 🤍🤍=🖤
- Flecher is a Squib, a human with Magic parents but born with no magical talents. 🖤🖤=🤍
- Dudley is a Muggle. Non magic folk as said by Hagrid. 🤍🤍=🤍
Harry is a halfblood.
Sometimes, in order to do the right thing, you have to break the rules. 🤷♀️
also Harry’s dads patronus was a Stag (same as Harry’s) and he could also transform into a stag since he was an animagus . Wish they explained this in the movies
Yeah that would have helped lol
The map always works, that's how Lupin realized Pettigrew was still alive
About the dementor question, it's called the dementor's kiss. It sucks your soul out, and you keep living as an empty shell until your body dies.
Oh wow, that doesn't sound like fun lol
To answer your question about who can and can’t use magic. Underage wizards have “the Trace” on them, which is like an alarm that goes off if they cast spells outside of school.
“The Trace (incantation unknown) was a charm which allowed the Ministry to know of magic cast in the vicinity of wizards and witches who were under seventeen years of age. When any magical activity was performed in the vicinity of the underage individual, the Improper Use of Magic Office within the Ministry of Magic was alerted to the spell that was used, and to the location of the caster and the time it was cast. The charm allowed the Ministry to track underage magic, which was banned under the Decree for the Reasonable Restriction of Underage Sorcery. The Trace automatically broke upon a wizard or witch's seventeenth birthday.”
After seventeen you’re allowed to do magic anywhere.
"So Dementors aren't bad." Well, technically they are considered bad. They are a form of "spirit" that wanders about and sucks the soul out of basically anyone. There is no real known way to deal with them other than the Partronus charm. Everything else they just completely ignore. The reason why Azkaban's prison warden are Dementors, is the fact that Azkaban itself is not only special, but an "enigma" so to say. Azkaban used to be the castle of an old dark wizard (sadly forgot the name right about now) that lured people (iirc mostly muggles) in and tortured them. The castle itself was completely hidden from sight and sense by some form of magic. Only after the dark wizard died, did the castle become visible. When the ministry inspected the castle, they found that an unusually large herd of Dementors were inhabiting the castle for reasons unknown (but probably because they feed on negative emotion and well, torture is pretty negative). Shortly afterwards they just decided to use the chance of a castle filled with dementors to make a prison out of it.
Why in the hell they would send those "we attack anything, whenever we want" spirits to capture Sirius is anyones guess, but that might be in some way because of Rowlings "I'll just make shit up as I go." mentality she had while writing the books and the subsequent pieces of lore.
So, despite being a great film, it left out quite a lot of context and info. The marauders map was made by James Potter, Sirius Black, Remus Lupin, and Peter Pettigrew while they were all in school together. Lupin was attacked by a werewolf called Fenrir grayback when he was a child. Dumbledore made special accommodations so that he could attend Hogwarts, but he would stay in the shrieking shack when he transformed into a werewolf… Hence the rumors that the shack was haunted. The rest of The marauders underwent a long process to become anamagi so that they could keep Lupin company while he was changed. Peter became a rat, Sirius became a dog, and James became a stag. Hence their names on the marauders map: Mooney, worm tail, pad foot, and prongs.
And that’s just the tip of the iceberg😅
It's a shame they left out so much of the details like that!
Funny you should mention that Voldemort should just teach defense against the dark arts since they can't keep a teacher in that position. He's actually the reason they can't keep anyone in that position. He once applied to teach it, before he rose to power, but Dumbledore wouldn't hire him. He cursed the position in retaliation, and no one's held the job for more than one school year since.
harry doesn’t just get everything for free, a lot of people just pity him because trouble does tend to follow him lolll, he’s practically cursed
hah, I bet within the first 30 minutes of the next one het gets something for free :P
Technically Harry is cursed but not giving that one away.
13:10 - one of the first decisions the director of this movie (Alfonso Cuaron) took was to allow the students to dress as they would at their actual schools
25:20 - On the chocolate; Lupin just knows his cures. in the books the Hogwarts nurse (Madam Poppy) actually is impressed that there is finally a Defense Against the Dark Arts teacher who actually knows remedies.
Chocolate fixes everything :)
I recognise that name - I looked him up, he directed Gravity!
It's been 18 years and Buckbeak is still the single best piece of CGI I've ever seen.
Pure blood wizards/witches have no Muggle (non-magical) ancestors. James Potter was a Pureblood. The Malfoys, the Longbottoms, the Weasleys, the Blacks & the Lestranges are Pure Blood families.
Muggleborns or Mudbloods (which is considered a very offensive term) are wizards/witches that have non-magical parents. Hermione, Lily Potter, Dean Thomas, Justin Finch-Fletchley, Colin & Dennis Creevy are Muggleborn.
Half-Bloods have both magical & non-magical parentage or ancestry. Most wizards & witches are Half-Bloods. Harry Potter had magical parents but his maternal grandparents were Muggles. Voldemort’s mother was a witch but his father was a Muggle. Same for Snape & Seamus Finnegan. Hagrid’s father was a wizard but his mother was a giantess. Half-Blood doesn’t strictly mean one parent was magical & one was not. Anyone with Muggle ancestors is considered a Half-Blood even if the Muggle was several generations back.
A Squib is someone who’s parents are magical but who doesn’t have any magical abilities themselves. Argus Filch the Hogwarts caretaker is a Squib & so is Arabella Figg, who you will see in the 5th movie.
Hope that explains everything & I’m enjoying the reactions.
Thanks! I'm going to have to print this off for notes :P
The beginning of this movie is the thing I have the most probable with. Harry wouldn't be doing actual wand magic at the Dursleys because of the laws.
Happy to see that you know your latin ^^ You must be the first reactor to guess for Lupin ! Bravo :) ( I was hooked when you talk about the constellation for Sirius too ! )
It takes a lot of practice and powerful magic to make a fully formed patronus, it's explained in the books that kids in younger grades can't usually do it.. Also, Harry keeps fainting because dementors they suck your soul and leave you with only your sad/painful memories, when Harry sees a dementor he hears his mother screaming in his head when she was killed protecting him.. There's a lot lost in translation between books and movies, we don't get a lot of the character's thoughts..
Potter falls over even when dementors aren't around. I don't think there's a been a film yet where he hasn't fallen over, I love it :) It's something to look forward to!
This one is my absolute favourite Harry Potter movie. The whole theme, the time travel and the nostalgia, as this is the movie I remember the most from my childhood. This one will always be special to me.
And Hermione punches Malfoy lol
Think about it like this, this isn't a series just about Harry Potter vs. Voldemort. This is a narrative meant to open up a whole new world of magic and to immerse the reader and audience completely into this world to the point where you don't want to meant it. The world building happens more and more each one... along with the maturation of the characters, themes, and ideas. You're going on what is probably the greatest coming-of-tale ever conceived.
So the reason Lupin was passed out in the train, was because the night before was a full moon.
Ah makes sense! Or he was out clubbing all night 😛
Lupin is a werewolf since he was a child. His best friends James, Sirius and Peter found out and wanted to join him while he is transformed, so they decided to become animagi. Werewolfs dont attack anmagi, so they could be together.
Turning into an animagus is a hard and long magical process. You cant decide which animal you turn into - it wil be the same as your patronus, your "spirit animal"
James, Sirius and Peter haven't told anyone that they became animagi. But there are a few registered animagi, for example professor Mcgonagall, who is a cat.
Didn’t know Sirius was in the dog constellation. Makes sense lol
It's actually 2 stars together, which is interesting because the name/story of Remus and Romulus (which you can see when Snape is doing the Werewolves class) is about 2 brothers, so I thought maybe Black and Lupin were brothers :P
Still my favorite one after all these years, although the last film is a close second. It has that childhood nostalgia associated with it for me and marks the beginning of the series getting darker, which I love. Can't tell you how many times I rewatched the DVD and played the bonus features game lol. Not to mention it introduces us to two awesome characters, Sirius and Lupin. 🐶🐺🌙
Not many reactors pick up on the clues in Lupin's name. I'm glad you did. 🙂
your correct about the name Sirus taken from the star. JK rowling named several of her characters after stars and constilations, characters all connected to a specific family keep ur eye out
probably been explained in the live chat..but harry is a half-blood..his dad James is from a wizard family..his mom Lilly is a muggle born witch (like Hermione) her parents (and sister Petunia) aren't magic but she had powers..
Thanks! I should get the hand of it by the 8th film :P
Lily is a witch, just like Hermione.
Glad to see you're enjoying the series so far! All of the books have things that were removed or changed in the movies, but this is the first one where they really start leaving bigger chunks out (ex: the origins of the Marauders Map). When you finish the film series, I think you'd really enjoy the novels.
Thanks for the tips!
wow - you are good at getting hints!
congratz!
If I am allowed to have a guess - you'll probably be a Ravenclaw.
and yes, Richard Harris died, so they had to find a replacement.
sadly.
JKR wrote the dementors to represent depression - they suck every happy thought out of you.
I so agree that Ron is a legend! It might not seem like he's very good at magic sometimes BUT if you keep in mind that because his parents are poor he has to use a hand-me-down wand that didn't fit or choose him, he's brilliant.. Plus he's got all the street smarts to compliment Hermione's book smarts.. Harry's fame is just because Voldemort happened to choose him as being part of a prophecy and kind of an accident, although having to spend summers with the Dursley's is punishment enough for special treatment at school..
Every full Patronus is corporeal, and it represent something like your spirit guardian. The words "Expecto Patronum" mean "I expect (or await) guardian." The Dementors are methapor for depression and can force bad memories and dread you experienced. The worse things you saw, the worse they can affect you because they are bringing up those menories and feelings back, and Harry witnessed his parents murder. That's why they affected him more than other kids his age.
In the book he did not only hear his mothers screams, but he also saw her and his father on the night they were murdered. He went through hard time because he felt guilty he wanted to hear and see them again one more time, and he wanted to learn fight against Dementors at the same time.
His Patronus is decribed pretty different in the books, I assume they were saving on CGI. He was alone at the lake, Hermione stayed with Buckbeak at Hagrids house. Here's the part from the books.
"Harry raised his head to look at the circle of
Dementors across the lake. One of them was lowering its hood. It was time for the rescuer to appear - but no one was coming to help this time - And then it hit him - he understood. He hadn’t seen his father - he had seen himself -
Harry flung himself out from behind the bush and pulled out his wand.
‘EXPECTO PATRONUM!’ he yelled.
And out of the end of his wand burst, not a shapeless cloud of mist, but a blinding, dazzling, silver animal. He screwed up his eyes, trying to see what it was. It looked like a horse. It was gal-loping silently away from him, across the black surface of the
lake. He saw it lower its head and charge at the swarming Dementors… now it was galloping around and around the black shapes on the ground, and the Dementors were falling back, scattering, retreating into the darkness … they were gone.
The Patronus turned. It was cantering back towards Harry across the still surface of the water. It wasn’t a horse. It wasn’t a unicorn, either. It was a stag. It was shining brightly as the moon above … it was coming back to him …
It stopped on the bank. Its hooves made no mark on the soft ground as it stared at Harry with its large, silver eyes. Slowly, it bowed its antlered head. And Harry realised … ‘Prongs,’ he whispered.
But as his trembling fingertips stretched towards the creature, it vanished."
P.S. His father was animagus stag (also one of the creators of the map), and his nickname was Prongs.
Harry only knew what was his fathers nickname, as Sirius did not have time to tell him what animal he was.
I've learned at least 2 things from you in the first 10 minutes. One about the Sirius star constellation (I knew it was a star, just not a dog constellation). Then about the symbol on Sirius's prison photo. Looking forward forward forward to learning more things like this!
Cary Grant's character in Charade is called Cruikshanks.
It was helping the dog into the castle. Even stole Neville's list of passwords and gave it to the dog.
The Fat Lady didn't allow him in the first time without a password and he slashed her. The second time he used a password and she let him in.
There is also another connection with the names, not known to many: in the 1800s there was a surgeon by the name of Thomas Joseph Pettigrew who worked with an artist called George Cruikshanks, who illustrated his work. They unrolled ancient mummies in public performances and published a couple of books together. Pettigrew was so well connected to big names, writers, secret societies and cults, that he was asked by the Duke of Hamilton to mummify his body after his death, which he apparently did. (those who have finished the HP series know the significance of this)
It was Sir Cardagon (spell? The little knight with the fat pony) who let Sirius in.
@@francespowell6923 Yes. He had all the passwords was the argument, if I remember correctly. (I believe his name's spelled Cadogan)
-if you go back and watch the original punching scene, you can see future Hermione's hand on a stone wall in the background.
-And no, Harry's mom was a witch, but SHE was muggle born. Petunia, her sister, didn't get any powers.
-Once you're 17 you can do magic at your own discretion, you just can't cause a scene amongst muggles.
-Animagus and werewolf aren't the same.
I just looked it up, it's so tiny, if it didn't move I would have said it was nonsense :P
I do not know if you have seen this movie or not, but the actress that plays Marge is the same actress that played Trunchbull in the original Matilda movie.
harry's dad was pureblood and his mother was a muggle born like hermione. so harry is a halfblood. both of the parents have to be pureblood for child to be a pureblood, so pureblood families like malfoys or weasleys are rare and almost always related. so draco and ron are distantly related
The invisibility cloak is Harry’s family Heirloom it was always his property and Hermione got the time term with special permission to take extra classes
Up
"Expecto Patronum" is the incantation of the spell. Successfully casting it produces a Patronus which at full strength is in the shape of an animal that reflects an aspect of your personality. At lesser strength it manifests as a mist of varying intensity depending on the strength of the caster.
They did a poor job representing it in this movie as it should have looked like a stag both times.
Fixing a pair of glasses is relatively simple where as fixing eyes would be a much more complicated thing. Well beyond 3rd year students. In this way magic, although amazing is the same as any other discipline.
It was funny when you said that they are running out of Dark Arts teachers so they might as well let Voldemort have the job. The reason it is funny is because Voldemort, when he was still Tom Riddle applied for the position. When Dumbledore turned him down he cursed the position so that no one could hold it for more than a year.
Pettigrew/Scabbers didn't kill Harry before because he had no reason to. He didn't join Voldemort because he is a true believer but rather because he is a coward. He believed that Voldemort would win so he was looking out for himself. If he was discovered then both sides would want to kill him since Voldy's followers would blame him for their masters demise. Better to hide out as a rat and be taken care of.
That's incredible that you immediately knew the reference to the dog star and also put together Lupin's name and boggart form and guessed he was a werewolf on the spot. I remember as a kid reading articles on mugglenet and being blown away by the effort put into the character names, specifically Sirius and Lupin. And I've never seen someone watch the movies and just know these facts off the top of their head.
I know little bits of useless things :P I was really into space and the occult as a kid :)
I was glad to see you reference runes and astronomy and Latin. Harry jumps at living with Sirius because he cant stand living at Privet Dr. The Scabbers loophole is seriously gross, because he was Percy's rat first and the twins have had the map since they were first years. They are 2 years older than Harry/Ron and 2 years younger than Percy
The mentors don’t care who they attack, as long as they get their food they’ll go after any, and everyone
Haven’t watched the video where you find out your house, but your low tolerance for Harry’s shortcomings is definitely giving Slytherin and I love it lol
I agree on Slytherin but I definitely do not like the hating on Harry. It's a cheap trick but then again - Slytherin....not saying you have to love him but you're too heavily negatively biased
To be fair, he is the joint worse character :P It's just logical!
Romulus and Remus were two boys that were brought up by a wolf. Their father is said to be Mars, the roman god of war.
Harry's mum and dad were both magical, but his mum was 'muggle born' - meaning neither of her parents was magical - just like Hermione. It happens sometimes; a witch or wizard can be born to non-magical parents. The opposite, a non-magical child born to magical parents, is called a 'squib' and in the books we learn that Filch is a squib.
@Cinobite Reacts Just a side note [since you "like" house elves this much]:
- they are basically "magic slaves" (but most of them dont really mind, because "serving a wizard family" is their life purpose); Hermione tried freeing these elves in a later book [not shown in a movie] by leaving knitted caps and other clothes lying around under some rubbish ... but the elves rejected them
- there are about 50 of them in Hogwarts ... who do all the cleaning and cooking (there is an identical "feast hall" right below the one the kids eat in, which is where the elves stack the food from the kitchen on the tables ... until the food gets transported up at the start of the meal)
I'm playing the game at the moment and found out that under the dining hall is the kitchen with the same table layout and the elves put it on those and it magics up to the tables upstairs!
So both Harry parents are wizard/witch. His mother was like Hermione (muggle parents) Harry's father was a pure blood whos family goes back many generations.
Snape went to school with Harry's parents, Sirius, and lupin . Snape and Harry's dad hated each other.
I would have seen a ventriloquist mime
Chocolate just makes you naturally happy and the Dementors feed off your happiness so when Harry faints due to the dementors the Chocolate helps him get back to normal
I appreciate you being knowledgable of history and mythology. So few reactors are, so they don't pick up on the details. You'd probably have a blast looking into all of the names.
Thank you :)
Lol if they could fix eyesight, you'd think professor McGonagall and Dumbledore would've fixed their own sight by now.
Or the cup of tea lady :P
Harry's dad is a pureblood wizard, his mom is a muggle born wizard just like Hermione, so he is a half blood wizard because is mom is not from a wizard family
A patronus is a corporeal representation of the caster. Harry’s is a stag which is the same as his father’s. Not sure why they didn’t show the stag the second time.
Another thing is not all witches and wizards are good at magic. And sometimes you have squibs who can’t do magic at all. As a result you will sometimes see witches and wizards not using magic because it would be easier to just do it than use magic that you might struggle with.
Someone said the patronus is a shield for you but for people watching they see the animal, I don't know if that's true though :P
@@CinobiteReacts a low level patronus is just the light shield and will fend off a small number. A full patronus takes the form of an animal that acts as a shield. It stays for as long as the caster is focused on the spell and can be controlled by them. Dementors feed off your happy memories and leave you with only your darkest ones. The patronus is made of your happiest memory. Since it is not real the dementors can't feed off it and it drives them away.
The hufflepuff who fell was saved also. They just didn't show it. It's fine not to like a character, but you purposely get irritated with Harry over things he couldn't control or anytime someone treats him nice given what he experienced and continues to experience. He never killed voldemort. He killed Quirrell and destroyed a memory in a book. He didn’t look for the trouble, they look for him. And the Dementors affected him more because he has less happy memories and more horrors.
He still isn't the best, but you'll be pleased to know he wins me around in the last film :)
But if you think this is bad, just wait until Dobby shows up 🤣🤣🤣
Thank you for watching the videos though, it's very much appreciated 😁💗
Loving your reactions to Potter. Cracking up every time.
😊 thank you
@@CinobiteReacts Home from work and ready to get into the rest! Thanks for the laughs after two crazy work days.
Azkaban is my FAVORITE Harry Potter film! I think two let of Fire is a close second! I’m glad you enjoyed it so much. I really appreciate the historical insight you provided in this one as well, like the historical context of were in werewolf with wer and werman and the fact that serious black was named for a star, I knew serious had something to do with the stars but I had no idea that the constellation was a dog! Crazy!
Chocolate releases endorphins or so. Endorphins make you happy. Happiness helps against a Dementor attack.
You become an empty husk after the Dementor's kiss.
The patronus is supposed to be a stag, like his father. It charges at the Dementors and shooes them away. In the second rendering they just showed light, probs ran out of money.
How come happiness defeats the dementors if that's what they eat?
@@CinobiteReacts that's the challenge.
@@CinobiteReacts you kind of answered your own question there. The patronus is made from happy memories so it draws/forces the dementors away by giving them a decoy to feed on that's more appealing than a person. The patronus doesn't destroy anything. JK has apparently stated that Demntors can't be killed because they weren't/aren't living creatures.
I think my boggart would've been either myself, or absolute darkness, one that robs you of your vision completely.
Haha that Carrie reference was hilarious!
I like this review because you revealed random factoids that apparently are clues.. Like Sirius being a secret protector and named after a constellation.. And the shrunken heads
Thanks!
you should definitely react to the Fantastic Beasts in the future!
Also the nicknames;
Prongs: James Potter
Wormtail: Peter Pettegrew
Moony: Remus Lupin
Padfoot: Sirius Black
One thing they didn’t mention in this movie was a really important thing involving Snape and James as; Sirius telling Snape how to get past the Whomping Willow as thus nearly getting him killed by a transformed Remus Lupin, which is when Sirius took advantage of Remus for a sake of a so called “prank” until James figured was Sirius was up to and saved Snape before it was too late, Snape indebted to James Potter because of this, disgusted by this. Dumbledore claims it’s a Life-debt.
29:51 at this moment alfonso cuarón the director told remus lupin to act like a lover towards Sirius until they figured out in movie 5, Tonks came along to be lupin’s actual lover😂
If you want a horror suggestion "I am not a serial killer" is pretty great. Christopher Lloyd plays such a stand out role in the movie.
In answer to your question, underage witches and wizards are allowed to do magic in the presence of an adult witch or wizard (seventeen or older) and they are allowed to do magic when there are no muggles around. That's why the letter from the ministry mentioned the hover charm in chamber of secrets. They assumed it was harry because a house elf should never be in a muggle dwelling and the only other magic user in the house would be harry himself. The trace informs the ministry if magic is used in the presence of muggles specifically (I say this as vaguely as I did in an attempt to not provide spoilers, not because I'm not aware of future events in the series.)
The patronus is the result of the spell, expecto patronum is the words used to focus the spell. He's giving him chocolate because chocolate causes the body to create happy chemicals and the reason the dementors go after harry so hard is because they feed on horrible memories and emotions and get stronger the more traumatic the memories are that they are feeding on.
Thanks! Love your HP reactions ❤️ -subscriber from the Philippines 🇵🇭
Thank you so much for the super thanks!
So Fred and George had this map, say Ron sleeping with someone named Peter pettigrew and never said a word… good on them for respecting his privacy.
Also in the end credits with the map there’s an Easter egg of two footsteps overlapping each other in opposite detections (doing it).
🤣 I never thought of that, and they never wondered why he was in their house and they never saw him 🤣
LOL, there should be a warning not to be drinking liquids when watching this, you had me cracking up! Interesting story about Dementors. They were meant to be symbolic of the depression that Rowling went through at one point. People who experience them normally say "it felt like I'd never be cheerful again".
hah thanks :P
his mum was a muggleborn and his dad was born a wizard but she was insanely talented even as a kid.
fun fact. when Hermione punches Draco, it was a real punch. Emma Watson was having trouble with the fake slap. so Tom Felton after several takes told Emma to "hit him for real." he braced for the slap. but Emma punched him. after words shocked she appoligies and said "you did tell me to hit you." but Tom Felton being a good sport and a good actor just let it go and was professional about the whole thing. after the last film was made Emma Watson said she had a crush on Tom Felton. I say, kids: we hurt the ones we like the most.
24:42 Here Harry, take this sick edible. It'll jumpstart your heart
🤣
I love this movie! Watched it yesterday too. I watch all the reactions. The scene in the shrieking shack is fantastic! So well done!
36:20 McGonnagal trusted Hermione with the time turner to use it responsibly
At least she didn't use it to rewind time and change histo.... oh ;) hah yeah out of all of them she would probably be the most trustworthy
His patronus is a stag because his father, who was an animagus, was able to turn into a stag. Thats hy he thought it was his dad that conjured it because he didnt know he could produce a full blown patronus charm and since it was a stag it made sense that it was connected to his father
Sirius is the name of the Dog Star and Remus comes from the story of Romulous and Remus twins who were raised by a wolf
The way you say _”Potter”_ gets me every time 🤣🤣
🤣🤣 Pottuhh!!!
You mentioned Dawn French was married to Lenny Henry. He was the voice of the shrunken head on the Knight Bus.
THAT PREROLL INTO HAD ME CACKLING 😭
🤣
I don’t know if it’s emotionally, tonight, but the reason why Petticrew didn’t try to harm hairy, is because of fear. Since now you have finished the films, Dumbledore had always known. There was a near 100% possibility of Voldemort, returning, and Pettigrew knew that when he came back, he would want to get rid of hairy personally.
I don’t know if it is mentioned in the comments or not, but Snape wanted Lupin’s secret to get out about him being a werewolf.
Dudley liked to watch Dancing with the Stars. There was a TV in the hall, one TV in the dining room.
I was going to comment on that hah
It's been a while since I read the books [well, listened to the audiobooks] but I believe in The Chamber of Secrets, Hermione actually was more involved in the movie, except it was in side stories which were not included in the movie - so it wasn't that the actress was not available, but rather her parts in the book were not included in the movie.
Oh, and the chocolate thing - the book says that it is the standard way to treat the dispair Dementors cause.
Both of Harry's parents were magical, but his mother's parents were muggles so her magic was a mutation rather than an inherited trait.
She had a magical ancestor. Magic doesn't just appear in Muggle families, there has to be a contributing ancestor, then it's just a matter of time until someone is born with magical ability.
@xiphos8219 perhaps, but unless we assume that magical people are not human, at some point magic had to enter into humanity and that means it could happen again.
Now the matter is not addressed in the books so you can assume at the beginning there were magical people and non- magical people and they intermixed, but it is just a possible that there were just humans and at some point some developed magic. From my view, that is more reasonable. That would mean that it could happen again.
But your view is equally valid.
IT IS MY LONGEST COMMENT EVER. PRESS READ MORE AT YOUR OWN RISK.
ANSWERS TO YOUR QUESTIONS.
DOESN'T CONTAIN ANY MOVIE SPOILERS, BUT IT CONTAINS BOOK SPOILERS.
1:01 It isn't that simple story. Great things lie ahead to experience.
2:15 Yeah. They aren't allowed to do magic from joining Hogwarts till age 17. It is a movie mistake.
4:18 Yeah, Harry is a half-blood. His mom and dad were both wizards. But his dad James belongs to a pureblood family whereas his mom Lily belongs to a pure muggle family like Hermione. Lily and Aunt Petunia are sisters.
4:38 Death Eaters are the army of Voldemort
5:25 The heads weren't in the books. It was an imagination of the director. This movie has the best director so far.
6:47 Good knowledge. Sirius's whole family is named after stars, galaxies and constellations. Like Orion Black, Arcturus Black, Regulus Black, Bellatrix Black, Andromeda Black etc.
11:03 Richard Harris(Old Dumbledore) passed away before the shooting of this film started. This new Dumbledore is a bit off the character in 3rd and 4th movies. But after that, he became my favourite Dumbledore.
11:43 Dementors are bad. Ministry made a deal with them to provide prisoners to suck good memories and in exchange they guard Azkaban. Dumbledore hates them and protested in ministry to not make them guards because they can turn back at any point.
16:04 Neville is scared of Snape so much because Snape Always bullies him and Gryffindor. In books, he almost poisoned Neville's toad before that Boggart class.
19:55 Quidditch won't end until the snitch is found. The snitch adds 150 points to the catching team. But the team that has the most point wins the game irrespective of the catcher of the snitch. The longest quidditch match was about 3 months because the snitch got lost.
22:17 Yeah. That is the full form patronas that can turn into an animal. But, Harry isn't yet able to produce it properly. In Wizarding world patronas animal of someone can transform to match the patronas animal of its lover.
25:22 Dementors are a symbol of depression. So, Lupin gave him chocolate. It is a medical reference.
26:38 The lines, and the torn clothes are a way to represent Lupin's hard life being a werewolf.
32:06 "Dementor's kiss" suck the soul out of the body.
32:42 Peter always tried to stay with the powerful one to be safe. He doesn't care about good, bad, or missions as long as he is alive. While fighting with Sirius after betraying James and Lily, he killed 12 muggles and escaped by leaving his finger so the ministry thought Sirius is a mass murderer.
35:00 In the books, Remus just explained to him that his father's patronas animal is a stag before that moment.
36:12 The Time Turner is given to Hermione by Dumbledore in books. It is a very powerful thing so they need permission from the ministry and Dumbledore vowed for Hermione. But it created a lot of plot holes so JK Rowling destroyed all the time turners in a scene in 5th book. It isn't in the movies.
40:03 Because it was a stag. The CGI team didn't try to make the Stag a second time I think. But in books, it clearly said a stag was formed from his wand.
It is Percy Weasley and Oliver Wood's (Gryffindor's Head boy and Quidditch Captain respectively) last year. And Harry's team won the final quidditch match that year.
Marauder's Map is created by the Marauders.
Marauders are,
James Potter - Prongs (Stag)
Sirius Black - Padfoot (Dog)
Remus Lupin - Moony (Wolf)
Peter Pettigrew - Wormtail (Rat)
When Lupin joined Hogwarts, Dumbledore became aware of his condition and planted the Whoomping Willow tree and made a tunnel to the Shrieking Shack. Every full moon, Lupin go there and transformed into Werewolf and make wolf noises there. Dumbledore had spread rumours that it is a haunted place to keep Lupin safe. But soon the 3 marauders find out about Lupin's condition and accompany him for some years learned to turn into animals illegally and they did and nobody knows about them. They took advantage of their condition and found out many secrets of Hogwarts and made the marauders map, with all the secret passages and places.
Oh wow thanks for all the info! New Dumbledore definitely talks faster, so that's good :P
Sirius and Bellatrix are twin stars or so.
This is also a time to revisit what I said some time ago, which is that my patronus is an occamy according to the quiz 😀 You're safe to Google and read the summary and look at the first picture results. I'm inordinately proud of that, even if it's likely some kind of randomized thing.
I looked it up, it looks weird! I'm just waiting to find out what a Hinkypunk is!
Expensive Petroleum made me wheeze😂.
my boggart?
as a kid a Maths exam - probably XD
I hated maths exams so badly
now maybe my family in mortal danger though
with all the things going on in Ukraine XD
Finally one of these reaction series that I am not too late to be a part of! Yes! :) I really enjoy your humor although I am getting seriously aggravated at your digs at Harry xD At the moment, I am sticking it out, just to see if you ever change your perspective though ^^ Also keep in mind that the movies gloss over a lot of things from the books and that book-harry isn't really living the golden life. I really do like your take on Ron though
Yeah Harry is the worst lol I can't wait to rag on him in the next one :) Ron is the best :)
6:08 yes, Ian Brown. One of his family wanted him to be in it.
Not the kind of person you expect to suddenly show up!
Harry beat Voldy three times as of now. Once when his parents died, in the first year and then the second year. Voldy losing his touch.
The rat was safe being a rat, both sides would go after him. He got Sirius sent to Azkaban and couldn't reveal himself because he was supposed to be dead and a hero.
I'm getting Slytherin vibes.
😮
The Bogart would have turned into a zombie probably. those are the only things that give me nightmares.
This is where large armunts of back information start getting dropped from the movie. Such as how Snape knew where to find them in the shrinking shack. Why he hates Sirius and Lupin so much, as well as Harry's dad. The Patronus only taking an animal shape if it's strong enough etc.
One of my favorite details in this movie is the subtle ticking sound in the background when Harry and Hermionie are in the past.
Very interesting insight for the rune meaning protection !!
That movie where knowing a bit of Latin or Astronomy can make for a spoiler 😄
Absolutely! But only if you remember it properly :P Imagine is Lupin turned into a rabbit 🤦🏻♂️
@@CinobiteReacts For me it was the other way around - I learned so much from the books (Latin and astronomy is just the beginning)
Damn, you are good at catching clues 😮
Thanks! It's my favourite part of watching films :P
Harry is not a half-breed, both of his parents are mages. His father is a pureblood, but his mother is a Muggle-born.
Isn't he a half blood? So much to learn!
Voldemort only wants to attack harry that's why harry is the one to usually face him
Everyone comments on a new Dumbledore. No one mentions the Fat Lady. The Fat Lady is by and large ignored and she just hangs there wide open.
Come on ... we all know how to "fix eyes": *just get bitten by a radioactive genetically enhanced SPIDER!*
