- Step inside the pitch meeting that led to Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets!
With the first movie as well as the book series being massive international successes, Warner Bros was fast to get to work on adapting the second book in the Harry Potter series: The Chamber of Secrets. What adventures lay ahead for Harry Potter at his death trap of a magical high school?! People were anxious to see it play out on the big screen.
Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets definitely raises some questions though. Like why would Hogwarts hire Lockhart and why would he accept, knowing full well that he’s a fraud? Was the Whomping Willow really the best thing they could think of to put on school grounds? Why does the car have a mind of its own? Why did Hagrid send children off to speak to man-eating spiders in the most dangerous forest there is? How did Nearly Headless Nick get unpetrified? Is Fawkes the secret star of this movie?!
To answer all these questions and more, step inside the Pitch Meeting that led to Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets! It’ll be super easy, barely an inconvenience.

Watching the same Chamber of Secrets Pitch Meeting with a different thumbnail is super easy, barely an inconvenience.
its word for word xD
Sick!
Oh really?!
I'm gonna need you to get allllll the way off my back about it being the same video. It's a new thumb nail sir, it's a brand new video
@@FabrizzioGuevara Wow wow wow wow wow.... wow.
Have I already seen this episode of pitch meeting? Yes. Did I watch it all the way through again? Hell yes.
Watching over a Pitch Meeting episode, even though you have already seen it before is Tight!!
Why? Because it was super easy, barely an inconvenience!
I'm doing something else now: I'm watching the Harry Potter Pitch Meeting Compilation instead!
Ok
He’s moving some of the old pitch meetings from screen rant to his channel.
I see Ryan has taken inspiration from all the movies he’s been watching and did a shot for shot remake of his previous video.
@@jamesmaybrick2001
Who says that he isn't?
I appreciate that Ryan had diverse cast this time.
Shot for shot remakes are TIGHT!!
this was made for a modern audience, but since everyone looks kind of the same in the Ryanverse, it doesn't seem that different
And the re-recorded versions of songs artists are doing as well lately.
For a wizarding school that was supposed to be one of the safest places in the world, Hogwarts sure went out of their way to make sure their students were always in lethal danger.
The closer we are to danger, the farther we are from harm.
Not to mention the one where students are actually chained at the bottom of a lake or whatever and drowning while the crowd applauds
@@JJ-vn3xq Drowning at the bottom of a lake?? "Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire" Page 503.
Considering the world inside the story has communities of people all ages who possess magic (some of whom use magic as a weapon) , Hogwarts is actually pretty safe. Students are forbidden from going into areas that are unsafe. Cedric Diggory was "abducted" by a Portkey before his death.
Makes you wonder what the other schools for magic conditions were
Producer guy's disappointment at the end of stabbing is heartbreaking
He also stabs Ginny, but not with the sword ;)
@Euan Macdonald uhhh not for quite a few years.
@@nochancewithoutpasta7637 Not for this movie
You know, it didn’t really hit until now how absurd it is that he just cancels everyone’s exams.
Yeah its bad enough he just unilaterally alters the winner of the house cup, thus ignoring an entire year of point gains and losses so he can hand the win to harry and his house, but exams are actually kinda important. Thankfully it doesnt include owls or newts I think. I hope. Oh god please.
@@chrishubbard64 Great point. Imagine studying the whole year for your owls and then they're canceled. Now you can't get a job.
the entire harry potter series was mental, you sent children to a school where there are monsters and magic, and if they are lucky they may graduate, but most likely died in their first year. When you were a kid reading this it looks like fun and magical, after you have your own children, dear god what a horrible book.
@@minyaksayur lol. I think about it in this frame all the time now. How fucked up is it that these kids go to a school where some of the most fucked up things can happen to them? Let an underage and under-qualified wizard compete in a tournament where even the best wizards in a school of children have died.
@@minyaksayur Once you actually look at the implications of the Harry Potter world, you realize that it's actually a horror story.
I love the fresh take of this meeting with the two new characters.
Remakes are tight
I see what you did there!
Isn't just one of them different? 🤔
Y'all are saying this pitch meeting was done before?
@@evanhayes5891 It was on the Screen Rant channel. It is the exact same.
"Thank God they have those talking portraits in the hallways. They must have seen something."
"....... No."
"Oh, okay."
This needs to be in more pitch meetings
The book/movie is basically Harry Potter and the Chamber of Plot Conveniences, so yeah. They had to come up with as many possible excuses to not use the easiest way to not solve the problems
"Oh, that has MASSIVE moral implications!"
"No, it doesn't."
"Oh, alright."
In the books, they did ask the portraits and the ghosts. The ghosts can be petrified, so they mostly went into hiding. The snake moves along the walls and are rarely where the portraits would be.
Imagine having them in the bathrooms or bedrooms. Those guys...have seen a lot.
Watching this pitching meeting again on the pitch meeting channel instead of screen rant is tight!
Screen Rant is going to get all the way off of Ryan's back.
Super easy. Barely an inconvenience.
Yeah yeah yeah
Yeah... just hanging out under the Screen Rant umbrella, is all 🤷♂️☂️
"A little chat sesh with Voldi..." Killed me 🫠
Best line of this pitch meeting lol
i died, too
i love the part where lucius casually tries to use a banned murder spell on harry, yet nobody seems to really care at all. you think hed maybe tell someone lucius tried to murder him
Well I mean, A: EVERYONE tries to murder him, Harry would never get anything done if he told someone every time it happened. And B: No one does anything about danger at Hogwarts anyway.
And also at this point Harry doesn't know what 'Avada Kedavra' actually means. "Oh hey, more faux-latin. I wonder what that would have done?"
@@mrsocko316 many bad guys have the chance to just quickly avada kedavra harry throughout the series, but no one does it because he is reserved for voldemort to kill. the fact that lucius actually tried to do it going against everything voldemort’s posse stands for is ridiculously shitty writing, especially over some house elf of which he can just buy another. HP is great and all, but this particular scene is just objectively bad, a character like lucius would never make such a moronic move.
@@mencibenci Don't Lucious think Voldemort is dead at this point of the story ?
Wasn’t it only in the movie that he started saying the killing curse?
Not only silently walking together. Silently walking together in two separate groups, from two separate directions, and converge together at the same exact time.
“Machine ex machine” and “Chekhov’s bowels” are the smartest stupidest jokes you’ve ever done and i love it so much.
"as the Italians would say
-they wouldn't say that" XD
the reaction was the best IMO.
Which is the video with the Chekhov's bowels?
Machina ex machina
@@ChainWasp the terrible moon one, i cant remember what its called rn.
Edit: i think its moonfall
At the end there it could have been a Fawkes Machina.
“The Dursleys are sick of having harry in the house”
“So what do the do”
“Make sure he can’t leave the house”
Got me dying
"Toilet books are tight!"
The tight jokes never fail to crack me up 🤣
Lol. Crack.
Toilet humor never gets old.
IKR, my sides 🤣🤣🤣
The tight jokes are tight!
"A 'macchina ex machina', as the Italians would say..." -- easily the most unnoticed, underrated joke of the entire series
"Why would a celebrity accept a job teaching things he doesn't know and risk being exposed?" Hey so turns out that like all of society right now
The back story on him attempting the death curse is because the actor said he forgot his line
“A very stabby wizard, what else does he stab?”
“Ginny, in a few years from now”.
Bruh.
"stabbing Ginny is TIGHT!!!"
@@aaronseidl5941 most definitely
@@aaronseidl5941 “It sure is sir, just not for another 7 years”
That was the first thing that popped in my head when he asked that.
You should do some pitch meetings for some of the real old classics.
Like Casablanca, The Wizard of Oz, From here to Eternity, or Ben Hur. Or any of the many great movies made before 1970.
That would be awesome.
Yes....and for the love of God the National Treasure movies!
Yes! The Flash Gordon movies from 1980.
Ryan needs to do a pitch meeting for Plan 9 from Outer Space.
HA! Suggested the same thing. Making them in "old-timey" style would be TIGHT!
"No, that's it with the stabbing."
"Aww."
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
"...and back to the poop-tubes!" 😂 gets me every time!
"A little chat session with Voldy. Sure."
I laughed way too much at that little throw-away. 🤣
my favorite line so far!
My phone : New pitch meeting notification.
Me: New pitch meetings are tight
This was a weird coincidence. I am 39 and never watched the movies or read the books. My wife and I decided to read through them and today we watched The Chamber of Secrets. Over 20 years after release I watched it for the first time, opened TH-cam minutes after finishing the movie and this was my second recommended video.
5:04 “Ohh this guy doesn’t give a crap about their education.” 😆 don’t worry he’s the head master he knows what he’s doing, give the main protagonist house points who cares about their education 😂
Of course he knows what he’s doing. He’s trying to keep the school from about a million lawsuits by bribing the children into not telling the parents about their severe neglect and mismanagement.
0:57, to scare the children into staying away from it so that Lupin wouldn’t kill them.
I've watched it literally 20 times but I'll happily watch it again. Super easy, barely an inconvenience.
watching old pitch meeting that has been already uploaded with different thumbnails is *TIGHT*
2:54 "A macchina ex machina, as the Italians would say"
As an Italian I found that hilarious 😂 and yes, we use the sentence "macchina ex machina" all the time
"That makes for a super complicating laundry day" hahahaha
"a little chat sesh with Voldy" may be my new favorite phrase 😂😂😂
"A very stabby wizard!"
I died laughing.
"It just spooks them then back to the poop tubes." I love great writing 👍
"So you have a new pitch meeting for me?"
"No sir I don't"
"Fanta- wait what"
"Yeah I was thinking we could just re-upload an older video"
"Okay but why- uhh why would we do that?"
"Because"
"Fair enough"
Because it's a completely different channel
I saw an interview with the actor playing Lucius and it turns out he just needed a spell sounding phrase before going on and asked someone nearby and they suggested the Avada Kadavra. He had no idea what it was
The actor who played Lucious Malfoy said he didn't know what any of the curses meant yet and he just said one he'd heard at the end. Does kind of add some drama the situation though
So, no script existed of what he was *supposed* to say?
Really! Hmm, scriptwriter guy seemed to think it was intentional. It's not in the book, but I was taken aback he clearly used the "death curse" for Harry tricking him into freeing Dobby! That is so hardcore.
@@InfernosReaper If I remember the interview correctly, it just said something like 'Lucius yells a curse'
@@InfernosReaper At 3:35 here - th-cam.com/video/Gn0PVENZnpw/w-d-xo.html
@@benkellman4577 That is utterly cracked. How did no one care enough to make it make a lick of sense. Spells are a core part of the series!
Apparently we’re being summoned to watch this again. Well okay then, if you insist! 😄
"That has massive moral implications"
"No it doesn't"
"Ok"
😂🤣😂🤣
what is the moral implications
Children being able to casually create living beings and then erase them or kill them at a whim would raise some serious moral and ethical questions.
In the real world it's the same sort of questions we have about AI and whether they would be property, slaves, or have rights as sapient beings. Another real world equivalent would be cloning. These are things children should not be doing. Adults are barely able to deal with the ethics of these things, and children aren't even remotely mature enough to consider the consequences of creating life and what responsibility they have for that life. Draco casually creates a snake as a weapon with no consideration for its wellbeing, and then Snape casually burns it to ash. It's one of those serious things that Rowling hand waved away. Like the children and other wizards having access to love potions, date rape potions, and being able to brew polyjuice potion to take on the physical form of other children and adults. It's just disturbing.
@@Marvolo14 meh
"Oh a very stabby wizard." 🤣🤣🤣💀💀
Little chat sesh with Voldy😂 Ryan is a legend
"So you have a new pitch meeting for me?"
'No sir I don't'
"Fanta- wait what"
'Yeah I was thinking we could just re-upload an older video'
"Okay but why- uhh why would we do that?"
'Because'
"Fair enough"
I love that the actor for Lucius Malfoy ad-libbed using the death curse.
It seems perfectly in character honestly.
5:53, Dobby explains it as being that when Voldemort was at large, house elves were treated terribly but after Voldemort’s fall that ceased to be the case for all of them except Dobby and Dobby credits Harry for it (because everyone else does) and therefore goes to the point of warning Harry of the danger even though Dobby struggles to do even that because it’s against his masters wishes.
That is very weak, to put it mildly, especially since we see other house elves getting treated kinda poorly, like Creature...
@@InfernosReaper Kreacher was an outlier and a major reason for that was that he was owned by Voldemort supporters same as Dobby was.
2:02, if one of them had seen the Basilisk, it would have also been petrified
I was working in a movie theater when this was released, so i saw/listened to it a sickening number of times, but it motivated me to start reading the series
I’d like to see Ryan do more acting. His facial expressions are on point
Imagine him doing a Deadpool type of thing & repeatedly breaking the fourth wall to comment on how little sense something makes.
@I am me • 25y ago I’ve watched literally every video on it lol I mean like another season of Campus Law or like Will said.
Me: “Will I watch this again, _again?”_
Also me: laughs like it’s the first time I’ve seen it.
I'm always baffled that they have to wait ages for the mandrakes to mature to help the Basilisk victims be un-petrified. Like, they couldn't buy that shit at the store or something?
When Ryan said "manipulated by the diary of Voldemort", it sounded a lot like "manipulated by the Diarrhea Voldemort"... (fits with the "toilet book" plot-device, doesn't it?) and I kinda can't stop giggling at the thought of a version of Voldemort plagued not only by fear of death, but also by constant, explosive diarrhea.
It wouldn't bother him though, because he would not smell anything.
Thanks, that made me laugh almost as much as the video!
"My Voldemort has no nose"
"Then how does he smell?"
"Awful!"
That means he would be casting smells all the time.
The Chamber Pot of Secrets
Recycling old pitch meetings is tight!
You know... this episode just made me realize that harry potter is random enough to be have been basically a vivid dream...
Uploading Pitch Meetings that were already uploaded is tight!
"A very stabby wizard." Has to be my favorite line ever.
I've been thinking about the laundry thing for wayyyyy to long im so glad you said it
Getting two 'super easy, barely and inconvenience's in one episode is Tight!!
I'm glad I'm not the only one who recognized that Lucius Malfroy was about to use the killing curse on a kid, on school grounds. What was he gonna do if he'd succeeded? Absolutely nuts.
It was only on the movie. The actor had forgotten the spell he should have said. So it's just a fun improvisation that stayed in.
To stay in universe, I don't know what he would have done.
I mean, rapidly flee maybe with Harry's body, call a council of Death Eaters, and tell them all how he avenged the Dark Lord.
Leads to the thought: how many other students have disappeared from this place...
I don't think that curse works on Harry. Didn't Voldy try it like 3 times already?
Right outside Dumbledore's office no less! Like what!?
I remember the first time I saw the Dobby death scene in theaters, I accidentally let out a loud laugh before catching myself, and the theater audibly gasped... followed by everyone turning in my direction giving me the death glare 😵💫
I didn't have any knowledge of the series or attachment to the characters, but the CGI & the way he talked was so silly my brain found it comedic!
Only reason I even remember is because my gf at the time was so mad & embarrassed, I sunk down in my seat & was in the doghouse the rest of the night 😔
I'd imagine some people cheered, because Dobby was annoying and his attachment to Harry Potter was completely without *any* foundation at all... unless there was something in the books that got left out. He's just betraying his master "because the plot says so"
@@InfernosReaperA LOT in the books got left out, especially about Dobby and the house elves in general.
@@InfernosReaper Most of the overall house elf plotline was left out, but even the movies showed that Harry got Dobby freed from slavery. Not sure how you can call that foundationless. He betrayed his master because his masters were horribly abusive to him, but he had heard stories of Harry's kindness
@@stevendemayo3631 But it does come off as something that lacked a foundation, because like you said, they left the needed material out.
Ya can't even be like, "but he heard how kind Harry Potter was" because "from whom would he have heard that and how?"
Certainly not from his masters who hate Harry. That doesn't even get into the whole "it's only like the 2nd book, so he doesn't have that many deeds to begin with" part...
With the context stripped away, it's basically like he's just trying to help Harry just because the plot says so, which hurt the movie and cheapened the character
I hope he uploads them all to be on this channel.
I truly hope we’ll someday see a reaction video from the writer/authors themselves with these Pitch Meeting clips😮💨
If they agree JK to react on their channel Screen Rant would need to cancel themselves.
...
Let's do it!
@@hassathunter2464 😂
5:43 voldemort tried to kill harry and it backfired, why would malfoy think it would be any different if he tried it? Plot armor ftw 😆
Being early to a pitch meeting is super difficult, really an inconvenience
Love your videos! Do a pitch meeting for Southland Tales!!! I am going to comment this for as long as you make these until you make it. I will never give up. This is my thirteenth attempt.
Is this some sorta test by Ryan to see if we'll watch whatever he uploads? If so, I think the answer is yes
Rewatching a new pitch meeting of a previous pitch meeting is tight.
Except this is not a new pitch meeting it is a previous pitch meeting with a different thumbnail
not tight but lazy
Yeah yeah Yeah yeah
@@BichaeldeAngelo Technically the "original chamber of secrets is in the Harry Potter compilation so this is just the standalone video he released
Super complicated laundry day.
Just when I thought this guys lines couldn’t be more awesome.
"Wizards seem to have the ability to create life..."
"Oh that has MASSIVE moral implications."
"No it doesn't."
"Oh, ok."
As a Raiders fan, I completely understood the studio exec's disappointment when he realized nothing else would be stabbed 😢
I wish you had mentioned how Ron whacking Lockhart in the head with a Stone was crazy dangerous.
I guess it's impossible to die from those things in Chris Columbus' movies.
to be fair they play a sport where large iron balls fly around trying to kill you.
If no one managed to die from that, then im pretty sure they don't have enough braincells for blunt force trauma to damage.
I watch all TH-cam videos on 2x speed but yours. Your timing is perfect!
I can't believe there was no "Hey guys, it's Ryan here" at the end
1:28 I hate to be THAT person, but in the PS3 Wonderbook game "Book of Spells" it is explained that creatures spontaneously created by magic are not sentient and will vanish within a time period. While creatures created by more skilled wizards can last longer, they will still disappear with time.
So fun fact I recently learned: the reason why Lucius attempts to use Avada Kedavra on Harry at the end of the movie is because Jason Isaacs forgot what spell he was SUPPOSED to use and that was the only one that he could think of off the top of his head 😆
And they didn't have time to do another take after reminding him of the spell he was supposed to say? This makes it even worst.
@@eliasvivancos4381 this is a pretty low budget indie movie so they probably couldn't afford retakes.
As someone with arachnophobia, I gotta say that Aragog is the most horrifying live-action adaptation of a spider I know of. I always skip that forest part entirely.
Loved this Episode! A joke you may have missed though was that lockhart took the Job to sell all his books to the kids making his motive money...something producer guy could definitely relate to 😂
Having revisiting pitch meetings regularly released, is tight!
Re uploading old videos is tight 😅
Literally re-watched this movie 2 days ago, your timing is perfect
"La machina ex machina" has to be the best line from Producer Guy. Full marks 😂
Yeah that was genius
I'll still never understand why Harry couldn't just sneak into the Slytherin common room under the invisibility cloak instead of making a super illegal and complicated potion
So that the movie could happen.
Because the goal was to find info from Malfoy. Just hiding under a cloak and looking around likely wouldn't have helped
Lockhart accepted the job because he was a giant narcissist. He was apparently inspired by Rowling's ex husband
If she wanted a giant narcissist she could have just looked in a mirror
@@burner-pp7bs I don't think she was one back then.
Would really love see Pitch Meetings of the GI Joe movies from 2009 and the sequel in 2013
your videos aren't showing up on my subscription feed, luckily it popped up on my homepage!
Wow wow woww....wow
Love the new content from Pitch Meeting!
“No it just spooks them, then back to the poop tubes!” This is so dumb but is possibly the best line he has ever written. Bravo sir!
"Oh that makes for a super complicated laundry day"
Very true.
The complicated laundry day line really does raise a lot of questions
Don't get attached.
The feels come back from Dobby's death. Read the book first then the movie and now this.
I'm loving the new "sick" catch phrase
I love how disappointed the second you looks when there’s no more stabbing beyond the basilisk and the book
This is the best tear down of a bad plot I’ve seen in a while
The compilation was posted on this channel, but the individual one was still on screen rant. He still wants the individual videos he created posted here.
I’m so glad you get to keep your old content from the other channel :)
It's still under the Screen Rant umbrella 👍 but yeah, having it all in the same place will be cool.
A _"machina ex -machina"_ is one of the best lines I've heard on here! Bravo!
Producer Guy's total incredulity about Lucious Malfoy trying to straight up murder a kid in the middle of a school gets me every time. But "Back to the poop tubes" is where I break
Well technically they didn’t plan it since Lucius’ actor has said he forgot what magic words he was supposed to say and ended up saying Avada Kedavera, but it is funny that they left it in
3:42 "Toilet books are tight!"
I've been watching these videos (and from the other channel) that I'm actually starting to see these characters as different people without even thinking about it, anymore. For example, the pitcher and the producer have different smiles. They even have a slight difference in speech cadence. Just like on the other channel, I am starting to see the difference between the executive guy and each of his team members, in the "naming" meetings. Like how they came up with the names for vegetables. It is so weird.
Good Job, Ryan for the ability to fool my brain. It's harder to fool linear brains than it is to fool creative brains (the creative ones can play pretend games easier), but you have managed it.
That machina ex machina line was way underrated
I don't get it. What happened? I thought Ryan did pitch meeting for all Harry Potter movies.
He probably is re-uploading old pitch meetings from screen rant so everything is here, at least that is my guess.
He did, and this one is 21 seconds shorter so I'm wondering if he moved it over from screenrant and took something out or if he redid the whole thing. Normally he adds some commentary to the ones he moves over.
Which Ryan? Maybe screenwriter Ryan did but not Producer Ryan
@@HariSeldon913 maybe because yt flags and removes videos that it's algorithm thinks is copyright infringment
@@HariSeldon913 Maybe the adstronaut was at the end of the original pitch.
