Just started watching, but the hurt that hit my heart when you said you were excited to hear Alan's and Michael's thoughts on their experiences as Snape & Dumbledore 💔 Alan was 69, Helen was 52
It honestly made me so sad that they couldn’t be there because they passed away 😔💔But I think they really did honour them in the perfect way, especially with the ending. I loved that part! With how they ended the special with “… Always” 🙌🏼 - Daniela
I've never seen this before, and when Robbie Coltrane said, "I won't be around... but Hagrid will" I teared up. What a beautiful sentiment. 💜 Great video, guys!
Right?! That moment absolutely broke our hearts. Especially considering that he passed away in the same year that this reunion was released 😔. Thank you so much for this comment! 🙌🏼 - Chris & Daniela
Oh, thinking about all the actors who are no longer with us. Seen this special so many times and still can’t get through it without tissues, especially when Robbie talks about him not being there in 50 years. I hope that never changes. I never want to not feel like a true Potterhead.
RIGHT?! Just broke your heart to hear Robbie say that… Such an amazing actor and he looked like a fantastic human being!! He’s absolutely right about the franchise living on. We all will be Potterheads forever 🙌🏼 - Chris
Draco was very courageous. When his father called him, he didn`t go to him. Only when his mom called his name he went over to the dark side for his mom`s sake. Draco has always feared his father and did everything to get his approval and love but that never happened. It`s not that easy to say NO to someone who repressed you and your mom for an entire life. When Draco saw what Voldemort was capable of and how he treated his father, he lost all respect for Lucius (as did his mom). Considering what Voldemort demanded of him (to kill Dumbledore) and how he treated the Malfoy family, made Draco hate the dark side. In the end, Harry was also Draco`s only hope to get rid of Voldemort. He and Harry had a special bond for many reasons but especially because they saved each other's lives. Draco never had any friends. The two clowns who never left his side were two halfwits. And then he lost even one of them in the fire. Draco was traumatized by everything that was going on since Voldemort had returned. But for the first time in his life, he stood up to his father by ignoring his wishes. Those who had bullies as parents know how hard it is to stand up against such a parent. So, Draco calling Harry`s name and running after him made total sense.
Alan Rickman had sadly died to pancreatic cancer 🙁 when they show him in the reunion I tear up. I seen all his movies and he is my fav actor. May he rest in peace. Also, Tom Felton admitted to liking Emma but at a different point in time.
Yes, absolutely! May he rest in peace 😔. Such a captivating and intelligent actor, unbelievably sad to hear that he passed away due to cancer. Oh wow, really?! That’s crazy how they liked each other but at different stages! Never would’ve guessed that. Thank you for your comment and we hope you enjoyed our reaction! 🙌🏼 - Chris
So the last deleted scene when Draco yelled Harry I don’t know why they didn’t show it, but you know how hairy all the sudden had a wand and used it. It was because Draco threw it to him, and I kind of wish that they would’ve kept it, because that was kind of Draco redeeming himself.
Ohhhh that makes a lot more sense! Oh okay, I see it! Then yeah, it would have been great if they kept it in. That would have been cute. Seeing Draco being nice, helping Harry and redeeming himself. Thank you so much for your comment!! 🤗💗 - Daniela
Harry already had Draco's wand, he took it from him at Malfoy's manor. Draco was using his mother's wand at that time, he said it himself in the room of requirement.
This scene was probably not used because (1) it is hard to see what happened, (2) it wasn't in the book, and (3) it was really not needed because Harry walked into the woods with his wand in his pocket. The real question everyone overlooks is why did Draco grab his friends and go to the Room of Requirement? I believe they were there to hide from the coming battle and use the Vanishing Cabenet to escape if needed.
To delve a bit more into Emma Watson not wanting to come back for the last few films. My face was exactly like Chris' and Daniela's when I heard that part. Then I read more about what happened to her and it genuinely made me sick to my stomach. Basically the media and certain unfortunate "fans" had really started sexualising her even before she turned 18. Paparazzi took upskirt photos of her outside her 18th b'day party and published them the next morning. There was even a "countdown to 18" website made for Emma, I believe. I don't blame her for wanting to separate herself from the industry at this point.
That’s disturbing! It would get to anyone. She’s so strong for pushing through that. She must have gone through so much, not only your life has completely changed but you also have creeps like that you have so deal with. She’s so strong! I admire her!❤️ - Daniela
51:07 Rupert saying the lines between himself and his character getting blurred is understandable. By this time they had been playing these characters for half their lives. We tend to forget how young they were when they started.
I completely agree with you!! It’s 100% understandable as they played these characters for so long and starting so young that their character’s personalities eventually become their own personalities or at least a part of it. That would be very difficult to realize and then separate from it! Thank you for your comment and we hope you enjoyed our reaction 🙌🏼 - Chris
@TheHappyCryersReact JK was not finished with the series before the movies started. It may just be me but in the later books I swear at times she started writing to the strengths of the actors who would be performing the scenes.
I think JK Rowling didn't participate because of all the latest controversy about transphobia, maybe the directors (and she too) were afraid that the special would be boycotted just like Fantastic Beasts movies, so they only included parts of an old interview of hers The part where Emma explains that she and Tom are only friends is because thousands of fans write and love fanfics about Draco and Hermione, precisely because it is common knowledge that she had a crush on him when they were children :)
The out take where Draco runs to Harry is to give him a wand: Draco's wand which was essential to defeat the elder wand. Also Robbie Coltraine (Hagrid) died after making the 20th reunion.
40:21 - So, Emma was younger than the other cast members. She was 14/15 when the British Media began hounding her. Every movement she made off of the set she was followed. Her parents had to leave their jobs and her brother had to drop out of school because of the constant media harassment. It reached a boiling point when they attempted taking “upskirt” photos of her, reporting on men they believed she was dating, and a few times reporting about her weight gain. These things are EXTREMELY difficult for an adult to handle, she was a young teenager. Filming of the next film was delayed 2 months, she had to work out a security contract that made sense for her and her family. She was no longer 10. The Harry Potter fanbase not only stood with her, but openly stated that if she needed time then the studio should give her that time. Had she chose not to come back, that film would’ve been the last. These occurrences did lead to her being The UK Women’s Rights Representative at the UN. She is the first and only celebrity to have such a role.
Thank you so much for such a beautiful comment! We are thrilled to hear that you loved our reaction and we hope you stay with us for much more to come!! 😊🙌🏼 - Chris & Daniela
Yay for reading the books! You won't be disappointed, they are amazing! You'll discover characters and whole plot lines that they had to leave out of the movies, starting book 1 and especially from book 4 onwards. Please do tell your comments about the books too! :)
Thank you so much for your comment! We are very excited to see all the extra details, plot lines, and characters that were left out of the movies! There was just no way that we could move on without reading the books!! How much went into every single character in just the movies alone? Can’t even imagine for the books! We actually posted on our TH-cam Community that we’ll be doing chapter and whole book reviews on our Patreon starting in the new year 😊. We hope you join us to watch and discuss your favourite parts as well! 🙌🏼 - Chris & Daniela
Before Harry Potter there weren’t many Novels written for those 10-20 years of age. Myself and Emma are the same age, we grew up along with Harry Potter. When they filmed the first movie she was 9, she turned 10 towards the end of the first film. That is acting maturity beyond belief.
The reason why jk tells allan rickman about the secret of snape is that, rickman also wants to leave from the movie. He dont want to continue being snape at that time......
Wow, seriously? That’s very surprising to hear!! I wonder why he wanted to stop? 🤔. We’re so happy that he didn’t leave and if JK telling him the secret made him stay then she made the right choice by telling him!! Thank you for your comment 🙌🏼 - Chris
Late post but better late than never. Wonderful reaction. I was watching this video when it came out, I got distracted, then forgot about it until now when I saw the thumbnail of it, and I thought to myself and realized I hadn't watched the entire video! So here I am! find it wonderful to see the actors talk about their characters and behind the scenes while filming. I love how they all got along with each other off set when not filming. And then so many have passed away. Alan Rickman died young at the age of 69. Helen McCroy (Narcissa Malfoy) she died at 52 years of age from breast cancer, you're right, they died so young too. DH deleted scenes I knew that last one with Draco was too fast. Many have already explained to you what that scene was. It never happened in the book, but they added it, then deleted it. I am so glad to know you two will be reading the books. You'll see differences from the characters in the books compared to the characters in the movies. Quite different. I enjoyed this video reaction! Now to watch your Fantastic Beasts and Where to find them" reaction video. ☮💕
Imelda Staunton who played Dolores Umbridge and Maggie Smith who played McGonagall worked with Radcliffe in the BBC movie ‘David Copperfield’. Thats the early project that Columbus saw Radcliffe.
If you loved Snape - I'd think you should watch ANY of Alan s other movies. Especially "Robin Hood" (don't expect to much - but Alan is THE HIGHLIGHT) or "Galaxy Quest" or "Eye in the Sky" or (my personal favorite) "SnowCake" and if you liked Helena - there is always "Sweeney Todd" with her, Alan, Timothy Spall and Jhonny Depp Alan was great in (almost) everything especially in theatre. I was lucky enough to have seen him live on stage a few times and it was great Also.. Maybe plan a trip to a studio tour (I recently went to Londond for the first time it was so mind blowing amazing) Again, thank you for letting us join you!
This is such an awesome comment!! There’s SO many Alan Rickman movies that we haven’t seen that we absolutely are going to check out! Thank you for listing some of them for us 🙌🏼. Really?! You saw him on stage 😱. That must’ve been captivating to see him perform live! Thank you for joining us on this magical journey and we hope you stay with us for much more to come!! - Chris
Good story about reading and JK Rowling: I started to read the 1st book to my son after he had seen the movie. Lots are said in books that can not be portrayed in a film so my son loved that I read to him. I received a call on night, making me step away from the reading and I told him to go ahead and read a few words (he had only started to read) and that I would be back. After that, I realized that he actually was reading more and more on his own so I started to step away more and more (making chores as excuses to go and step away from the reading). Long story a bit shorter (LOL) at the end of the series (6 books later) I had to buy 2 books the day it went out so we could both enjoy reading it at our own speed. He was actually costing me a bundle in books after than .... but I did not mind as it was a good (really good) thing for him to have as an activity.
You know what? We think you’re right!! The biggest glow up in Hollywood history! We were almost taken aback for a second 😂. Love seeing your comments and hope you enjoyed the reaction 🙌🏼 - Daniela & Chris
OMG the dance! 😂❤You guys always make my day I do happy dances with my mom all the time!❤❤ and you two look awesome! I love the sweaters😍😍 5:35 It is! I LOVE how they arranged his entrance to this passage!🥺 it's the very last paragraph from the very first chapter of book 1, it comes right after Brian dropped him on the doorstep❤ That's why I am SO HAPPY you said that you're reading the books!😍🤩 Too much details and depth, they touch on everything you pointed out watching the deleted scenes and so much more! You'll get your fill of everything! I bet you'd LOVE it guys! 😍 Please consider telling us what you think after finishing each one I'd love to know! 😍 I also truly see why you like the 4th one Chris! it had EVERYTHING, it was the thickest of the books also with LOTS of details that was just a ride! You laugh, cringe so badly, get irritated specially with Ron lol, feel sorry for Harry and Hermione, seeing some other characters bloom and change and then at the end you feel despair, fear of the horridness of Voldemort actually being there for the first time and then cry some💔 it broke my heart specially the speech Brian did after Cedric's death💔 Watching that with you guys was so wholesome! I cackled all the way with you Chris I love how hyped you get just like every Potterhead of us despite not reading the books yet you completely understand every essential part that series aimed to deliver! and just watching you Daniela being wonderful, wholesome and cute like you always are! you talk just like me!😍 it was so awesome watching you touch on my exact favorite parts of this reunion guys they did make it magical just like the feels of the story itself❤
Happy dances make everything better!!💃🏼🕺 thank you SO much for commenting on our sweaters! ❤️ We are so pumped to have them🙌🏻 Omg really?! That’s so cute! It’s a full-circle moment! That was a very nice touch of them!😍 We are actually are considering it! It would be awesome to finally read the books and share our thoughts with people that love them just as much!🥰 I also can’t wait to read about all the little details that you have mentioned that were missed in the movie. We love the movies so much, we have no doubt we’d love the books even more! 🙌🏻❤️ I’ve cried, laughed, got frustrated and everything in between with the movies I can see myself going through all of it again with the books…and you know what? I’m ready! The only thing I’m not ready for is to feel Dobby’s death again. 🥺 THANK YOU!! Yes! The 4th one to me brings nostalgia but it’s also so heavily packed with emotions that they are discovering for the first time. I’m so glad you can relate and see why I love the 4th movie 🙌🏻. Also, thank you so much for saying that! It really means a lot that enjoyed my reaction to these movies and laughed at my jokes! it really does mean a lot! - Chris I love that you said that because we do have very similar thoughts and opinions on many scenes! I feel like we’d be great friends!🤗💗 I agree! I feel like they did the movies and the characters justice and hearing them talked a their own personal experiences made me feel even more connected to them!🥰 - Daniela

Reading books is honestly one of my fav hobbies! 🙌🏻 Thank you so much for your comment again! Love seeing them!🥰 - Daniela
FYI: The scene showing Seamus setting the charges to blow up the bridge gave a nod to his part in the Battle for Hogwarts. He and Neville had been the butt of many jokes throughout the books but in Deathly Hallows they are shown to be intelligent, talented, courageous young men.This scene not only gives Seamus some glory but also prepares us for the later scene when the bridge actually blows up. Seamus' "proclivity for pyrotechnics" proves useful! In the book, the Slytherins were not locked in the dungeon. McGonagal, who took seriously the task of protecting students, would not have sent them to the dungeon. The Slytherins and the younger students were sent to safety outside of the castle (I believe through the portrait Neville used) but Draco and his two followers came back. So did Ginny and some others who were also under age. The Order of the Phoenix came in the same way. The scene when Draco calls out to Harry is when he threw his wand to Harry; Voldemort, obviously, would have confiscated Harry's wand. Draco went to his parents because his mother called for him. He must have known his mother loved him unconditionally and would never ask him to do something that would harm him. This was not his experience with his father. Also, in the book, there are many more scenes with Harry and Ginny together -- and snogging, of course! -- to show the development of their relationship -- especially in Half Blood Prince but also in Deathly Hallows. It's a shame her role was cut out of the movies. She was clearly Harry's match and a powerful witch in her own rights. Also in Deathly Hallows, while the 3 were at Grimmald Place (Sirius' house), Lupin came to them wanting to join them in their mission. Harry was angry with him for abandoning his wife and son and told him to go back. Lupin did. Harry was Teddy's (Remus' and Tonks' son) godfather. Nymphadora Tonks was the daughter of Andromeda (sister to Bellatrix and Narcissus -- Draco's mother -- and Sirius' cousin) and Ted Tonks, a muggle (which is why Andromeda's face was burned from the family tree like Sirius' -- explained in that deleted scene showing the family tree). Ted died while on the run in Deathly Hallows; muggles were supposed to register but he refused to. Andromeda stayed with her daughter who was pregnant at the time. He was later killed by Snatchers, leaving Andromeda a widow. Teddy had not only a godfather in Harry but also his grandmother to raise him.
Thank you so much for providing all these details into the deleted scenes from the books! It really gave the scenes more depth and make more sense (at least to us) after reading your comment! You’re right, a lot of roles and details were cut for the movies! As always, we love seeing your explanations as they provide us with a much deeper insight into HP as a whole! We hope you enjoyed our reaction 🙌🏼 - Chris
Daniel Radcliffe acted with Maggie Smith (Prof. McGonagall) in "David Copperfield". A wonderful movie. Tom Felton acted with Jody Foster in "Anna And The King". A beautiful movie, too. I was so happy when I learned they chose Daniel to play Harry because I loved him so much in David Copperfield. He was cute as a button :)))
Wow! That’s such a cool fact! 😱. Daniel Radcliffe and Maggie Smith acted together before HP? Thank you so much for sharing that! I know we saw Daniel in the reunion special acting in something else BUT we didn’t know that Maggie was there too! She must’ve saw that this cute little kid had some serious talent!! Oh you’re 100% right, he was very cute 😊. We hope you enjoyed the reaction! - Daniela & Chris
@@TheHappyCryersReact Of course, I enjoyed your reactions. I`ve been there with you from part 1 to the end :))) Daniela and Chris, I really hope you will complete your Hogwarts journey with the Fantastic Beasts Trilogy. It`s very interesting, magical, and fun to watch. It also adds information to the HP world. Because it`s happening in the '30s, Harry and his friends aren`t there, but young Brian (Dumbledore) and his brother are, and even young McGonagall has her moments :). And of course, we get to see Hogwarts again :))) Also, the importance of Grindelwald is explained. The main character is Newt Scamander (played by charming Eddie Redmayne), who is a sweetheart. The actors are super well-chosen :) Fun fact: Luna Lovegood never married Nevil Longbottom but fell in love with Newt`s grandson instead and married him. So, there is also that connection to the HP story. I am convinced you would like the Trilogy. Thank you for your heartfelt reactions!❤ Sending Christmassy greetings from Slovenia
@@lechat8533 We’re so thankful that you’ve been with us since then!! 😊. We absolutely will react to Fantastic Beasts but later on as our Patreon members voted for us to react to Back to the Future first! However, we 100% will come back to Hogwarts for that series 🙌🏼. We always wanted to know more about Grindelwald too, so we’re happy to hear that they’ll touch on that! We hope you stick with us!! Sending Christmas vibes right back to you! 😊 - Daniela & Chris
*Anna and the King Sorry, had to correct that. Didn't want to feel like you're confusing it with that other movie. The "King and I" movie I know, is that awful animated movie I heard about.
You guys did it already!!! Wow 🤩😍😍I was on a vacation with my family. It was more like a joint family vacation with all my cousins and relatives. So, I was very busy enjoying the lovely time I had.

cedric was def part of the previous books! And so were other "new charachters" I would have loved to see what robert had to say, so sad he wasn't part of the reunion
Oh wow, really?! That’s actually so cool to know! We both thought that he was brought in just for the 4th movie (and therefore we assumed just for the 4th book as well)! Thank you so much for sharing that! Oh yeah, seeing Robert speak on his experience and his character would’ve been great! We hope you enjoyed our reaction 🙌🏼 - Chris & Daniela
Thanks for replying! I just got done reading the third book, and cedric and harry had a lot of dialogue, mostly about quidditch, which they had games against each other, cedric at some point suggested gryffindor and hufflepuff should have a rematch after harry's broom broke in the match with the storm and dementors. He did not think it was a fair game for harry. Cedric was always super nice. I can't wait to read the 4th book and see how different it is. @@TheHappyCryersReact
@@YenellyT Wow! That’s so smart of JK to introduce Cedric earlier, so readers already know who he is when he has a much bigger part to play in the 4th! Cedric sounds very nice, you’re right!! Please keep us updated with your comments! 🙌🏼
There’s also a documentary you should maybe react to. It’s about his stunt double who was very badly injured onset Daniel Radcliffe is in it and produced it
Haha I’m so happy to watch this! Will you be watching the fantastic beast franchise further on? Or do you think you will pause watching this series for a while?

Although I also love the 4th movie, it’s hard for me to admit it’s my favorite because… the 4th book was by far my favorite book. It was perfect, imo. I’ve always felt like it could have been split into 2-3 movies. You could probably say that about every book after Chamber, but I bet that’s why they’re making a tv series. There was SO much left out of the 4th movie. That being said, I think my top three MOVIES in no particular order are Prisoner, Goblet, Phoenix. Thanks for taking us on this journey with you! ❤🎉
That’s fair enough! A lot of people have explained that the 4th movie does not even compare to the 4th book, at all! Wait what!? They’re making a tv series? Explain please! 😱. That’s a very respectable list for your top 3 favourite movies! Honestly… I would have to agree with you!! 🙌🏼.

Wy are you guys stopped, i was checking more content of you guys but its sad you stopped. i only see like 12 videos +/- .... you were favorites..... sad... You guyssayd you have much incomming... cry cry
Honestly I avoided watching this Anniversary Reunion because JK Rowling wasn't involved and I found that distasteful. I've enjoyed your reactions and hopefully you enjoy this as well but I'm going to pass on this one.
Thank you very much for commenting and explaining why you’ll be passing on this one! We completely respect that. I, myself, was pretty confused as to why JK wasn’t there when she’s the legit creator of it all. We hope you stick around for when we start reacting to Back to the Future!! 🙌🏼 - Chris
@@TheHappyCryersReactJK wasn't invited to participate because of the controversy around her views on trans not being women. She said she respected and supported trans people but they weren't the same as biological women. The trans activists got offended and it blew up all over Twitter at the time.
@@toodlescae Wow… That’s really unfortunate to be punished for respecting and supporting a movement but not necessarily every single aspect of its ideals. No matter what someone’s opinion is, she 100% should’ve been invited because without JK… There’s literally none of this? Just wow. Thank you for sharing this with us! - Chris
@@TheHappyCryersReact Exactly! - especially since Rowling explained her line of thinking. She wrote something to the effect of - if you deny the existence of biological gender, you're also negating the whole problem and also the struggles and the sufferings of women through history. If biological gender is not a thing, then the entire problem, feminism, the struggle for gender equality is diluted. She was criticized, cancelled, most of the actors turned against her and released statements criticizing her stance. People continue to label her as transphobic. Rowling stands by her opinion to this day and if I know anything abut her, she will never change her mind. It's sad, that we got to a point where we can't even disagree on the smallest of details without enmity.
JK said something not so nice about trans people so they had to make sure people knew Her shots were from Before she said those comments. That's why they specified when they filmed her scenes
Guys, it was great following you through this! I really appreciate the fact that you both really understand what must have gone into this story, the absolute genius of J. K. Rowling. By the way, she never had a middle name, she is simply Joanne Rowling. But when the first book came out, the publishers asked her to use initials because they felt that a book written by a woman would not sell too well. So she adopted her favorite grandmother's name, Kathleen and so she became J. K. If you really want to understand her, I suggest two documentaries to you. Whether a a reaction (which I would appreciate and love) or just to watch and enjoy by yourselves if that's what you prefer: The first one is following her for an entire year during which the Deathly Hallows was finished, published, there's a lot of back story, prepare a big pack of tissues. th-cam.com/video/Ij97LWo0I7s/w-d-xo.html The second one is a conversation between Rowling and the screenwriter, Steve Kloves: th-cam.com/video/Me3SbSWhICg/w-d-xo.html
Thank you so much for your kind words!! We always love seeing comments from you 🙌🏼. Can’t believe we made it to the end already! WAIT WHAT?! That is actually incredible that ‘J.K.’ literally comes from her needing to take on a middle name, so she chose her favourite grandmother’s name… You just blew our minds! We will absolutely take your suggestions for her documentaries, thank you!! There’s so much more to come, so we hope you’re staying with us! - Chris & Daniela
@@TheHappyCryersReact Thank you, you are very kind! You made me really happy by saying you'll read the books. When you'll finish them, you'll understand why I think that everyone should read them. In the mean time, feel free to ask me any questions that might occur to you, I'm a massive Potterhead, I read the entire series many times, I watched and listened to every interview, documentary. About the deleted scenes: If you watch the last one in slow motion, you can see that Draco gives Harry his own wand. As he is running towards him and screams "Potter", he throws his wand to him. And that would have been both inconsistent (it's not shown or implied anywhere that Harry lost his wand - a wand also taken from Draco - so why would he need another one?) and a plot hole because how could Harry fight Voldemort with a wand that he doesn't master, a wand that is still faithful to Draco (since it wasn't removed from him against his will)? - well, actually the wand iDraco uses now sn't even Draco's, Narcissa lent hers to him. So that would have been a huge mess from the "wand chooses the wizard" point of view. This is an inconsistency they managed to avoid. With others they've been a lot less careful. Isn't it interesting that Harry doesn't feel anything when he destroys the diary or when Dumbledore destroys the ring? Voldemort doesn't feel anything when the ring and the locket are destroyed, even though he's back in his body, he doesn't realize that someone is killing his Horcruxes? Yet they both have very intense reactions when the cup and the diadem are stabbed. Btw. Dumbledore is an old English word for bumblebee.
So JK I believe declined the chance to participate in this special. I could be wrong, but by this time her transphobic/ TERF statements had already started. So it was a publicity thing. That's why they used clips of her from a previous special.
Oh wow, really? That’s very unfortunate because this franchise is all her creation and to have missed out on being a part of this celebratory event must’ve been hard. At least they included her in it! Thank you for sharing this because I was genuinely confused! - Chris

It honestly made me so sad that they couldn’t be there because they passed away 😔💔But I think they really did honour them in the perfect way, especially with the ending. I loved that part! With how they ended the special with “… Always” 🙌🏼 - Daniela
I've never seen this before, and when Robbie Coltrane said, "I won't be around... but Hagrid will" I teared up. What a beautiful sentiment. 💜 Great video, guys!
Right?! That moment absolutely broke our hearts. Especially considering that he passed away in the same year that this reunion was released 😔. Thank you so much for this comment! 🙌🏼 - Chris & Daniela
Oh, thinking about all the actors who are no longer with us. Seen this special so many times and still can’t get through it without tissues, especially when Robbie talks about him not being there in 50 years. I hope that never changes. I never want to not feel like a true Potterhead.
RIGHT?! Just broke your heart to hear Robbie say that… Such an amazing actor and he looked like a fantastic human being!! He’s absolutely right about the franchise living on. We all will be Potterheads forever 🙌🏼 - Chris
Draco was very courageous. When his father called him, he didn`t go to him. Only when his mom called his name he went over to the dark side for his mom`s sake.
Draco has always feared his father and did everything to get his approval and love but that never happened. It`s not that easy to say NO to someone who repressed you and your mom for an entire life. When Draco saw what Voldemort was capable of and how he treated his father, he lost all respect for Lucius (as did his mom). Considering what Voldemort demanded of him (to kill Dumbledore) and how he treated the Malfoy family, made Draco hate the dark side. In the end, Harry was also Draco`s only hope to get rid of Voldemort. He and Harry had a special bond for many reasons but especially because they saved each other's lives. Draco never had any friends. The two clowns who never left his side were two halfwits. And then he lost even one of them in the fire. Draco was traumatized by everything that was going on since Voldemort had returned. But for the first time in his life, he stood up to his father by ignoring his wishes.
Those who had bullies as parents know how hard it is to stand up against such a parent.
So, Draco calling Harry`s name and running after him made total sense.
Alan Rickman had sadly died to pancreatic cancer 🙁 when they show him in the reunion I tear up. I seen all his movies and he is my fav actor. May he rest in peace.
Also, Tom Felton admitted to liking Emma but at a different point in time.
Yes, absolutely! May he rest in peace 😔. Such a captivating and intelligent actor, unbelievably sad to hear that he passed away due to cancer. Oh wow, really?! That’s crazy how they liked each other but at different stages! Never would’ve guessed that. Thank you for your comment and we hope you enjoyed our reaction! 🙌🏼 - Chris
So the last deleted scene when Draco yelled Harry I don’t know why they didn’t show it, but you know how hairy all the sudden had a wand and used it. It was because Draco threw it to him, and I kind of wish that they would’ve kept it, because that was kind of Draco redeeming himself.
Ohhhh that makes a lot more sense! Oh okay, I see it! Then yeah, it would have been great if they kept it in. That would have been cute. Seeing Draco being nice, helping Harry and redeeming himself. Thank you so much for your comment!! 🤗💗 - Daniela
In front of Voldy, no less! Such a pity they left that scene out.
But logicaly think what would hapened after that? Voldemort -> Avada Kedavra -> Draco dead.....
Harry already had Draco's wand, he took it from him at Malfoy's manor. Draco was using his mother's wand at that time, he said it himself in the room of requirement.
This scene was probably not used because (1) it is hard to see what happened, (2) it wasn't in the book, and (3) it was really not needed because Harry walked into the woods with his wand in his pocket.
The real question everyone overlooks is why did Draco grab his friends and go to the Room of Requirement? I believe they were there to hide from the coming battle and use the Vanishing Cabenet to escape if needed.
To delve a bit more into Emma Watson not wanting to come back for the last few films. My face was exactly like Chris' and Daniela's when I heard that part. Then I read more about what happened to her and it genuinely made me sick to my stomach. Basically the media and certain unfortunate "fans" had really started sexualising her even before she turned 18. Paparazzi took upskirt photos of her outside her 18th b'day party and published them the next morning. There was even a "countdown to 18" website made for Emma, I believe. I don't blame her for wanting to separate herself from the industry at this point.
That’s disturbing! It would get to anyone. She’s so strong for pushing through that. She must have gone through so much, not only your life has completely changed but you also have creeps like that you have so deal with. She’s so strong! I admire her!❤️ - Daniela
- Will you still be a Potterhead?
+ Yes!
- After all this time...?
+ Always
"Always."
They could not have picked a more PERFECT closing line to end this or a better tribute to Alan.
Couldn’t agree with you more! LOVED the ending!🙌🏻 thank you so much for watching!! We hope you stay for more reactions😊 - Daniela
Always. @@TheHappyCryersReact
Neville Longbottom had the BEST glow up with puberty! He looks so so handsome.
Oh god, right?! Celebrity crush alert! He had an amazing glow up!🙌🏻 I need one of those in my life lol. It was so nice to see him again!😊 - Daniela
“Even the way Harry committed murder was kid like” 😂. Chris is hilarious! Thank you guys for another amazing reaction.
Love this comment 🙌🏼. I’m so happy that Chris makes you laugh as much as he makes me laugh! We hope you enjoyed our reaction 😊 - Daniela
@@TheHappyCryersReactDid you know that Robbie Coltrane the Man who played Rubeus Hagrid passed away early this year😢?
@@TheHappyCryersReactHey how are you guys doing today? Daniela how many months are you now in your pregnancy?
Sorry, but... I think you may want to ask her how many *weeks* she is, given that a real pregnancy is measured in that, rather than in months... ;)
51:07 Rupert saying the lines between himself and his character getting blurred is understandable.
By this time they had been playing these characters for half their lives. We tend to forget how young they were when they started.
I completely agree with you!! It’s 100% understandable as they played these characters for so long and starting so young that their character’s personalities eventually become their own personalities or at least a part of it. That would be very difficult to realize and then separate from it! Thank you for your comment and we hope you enjoyed our reaction 🙌🏼 - Chris
@TheHappyCryersReact JK was not finished with the series before the movies started. It may just be me but in the later books I swear at times she started writing to the strengths of the actors who would be performing the scenes.
I think JK Rowling didn't participate because of all the latest controversy about transphobia, maybe the directors (and she too) were afraid that the special would be boycotted just like Fantastic Beasts movies, so they only included parts of an old interview of hers
The part where Emma explains that she and Tom are only friends is because thousands of fans write and love fanfics about Draco and Hermione, precisely because it is common knowledge that she had a crush on him when they were children :)
The out take where Draco runs to Harry is to give him a wand: Draco's wand which was essential to defeat the elder wand. Also Robbie Coltraine (Hagrid) died after making the 20th reunion.
i watched Harry Potter 200times, every time get's better👌💜
We absolutely agree with you!! Thank you for your comment and we hope you enjoyed our reaction! Lots more to come 🙌🏼 - Chris
40:21 - So, Emma was younger than the other cast members. She was 14/15 when the British Media began hounding her. Every movement she made off of the set she was followed. Her parents had to leave their jobs and her brother had to drop out of school because of the constant media harassment. It reached a boiling point when they attempted taking “upskirt” photos of her, reporting on men they believed she was dating, and a few times reporting about her weight gain. These things are EXTREMELY difficult for an adult to handle, she was a young teenager. Filming of the next film was delayed 2 months, she had to work out a security contract that made sense for her and her family. She was no longer 10. The Harry Potter fanbase not only stood with her, but openly stated that if she needed time then the studio should give her that time. Had she chose not to come back, that film would’ve been the last. These occurrences did lead to her being The UK Women’s Rights Representative at the UN. She is the first and only celebrity to have such a role.
Loved your reaction. You guys are so kind and lovely 🥰 😊
Thank you so much for such a beautiful comment! We are thrilled to hear that you loved our reaction and we hope you stay with us for much more to come!! 😊🙌🏼 - Chris & Daniela
Yay for reading the books! You won't be disappointed, they are amazing! You'll discover characters and whole plot lines that they had to leave out of the movies, starting book 1 and especially from book 4 onwards. Please do tell your comments about the books too! :)
Thank you so much for your comment! We are very excited to see all the extra details, plot lines, and characters that were left out of the movies! There was just no way that we could move on without reading the books!! How much went into every single character in just the movies alone? Can’t even imagine for the books! We actually posted on our TH-cam Community that we’ll be doing chapter and whole book reviews on our Patreon starting in the new year 😊. We hope you join us to watch and discuss your favourite parts as well! 🙌🏼 - Chris & Daniela
Before Harry Potter there weren’t many Novels written for those 10-20 years of age. Myself and Emma are the same age, we grew up along with Harry Potter. When they filmed the first movie she was 9, she turned 10 towards the end of the first film. That is acting maturity beyond belief.
The reason why jk tells allan rickman about the secret of snape is that, rickman also wants to leave from the movie. He dont want to continue being snape at that time......
Wow, seriously? That’s very surprising to hear!! I wonder why he wanted to stop? 🤔. We’re so happy that he didn’t leave and if JK telling him the secret made him stay then she made the right choice by telling him!! Thank you for your comment 🙌🏼 - Chris
Late post but better late than never. Wonderful reaction. I was watching this video when it came out, I got distracted, then forgot about it until now when I saw the thumbnail of it, and I thought to myself and realized I hadn't watched the entire video! So here I am! find it wonderful to see the actors talk about their characters and behind the scenes while filming. I love how they all got along with each other off set when not filming. And then so many have passed away. Alan Rickman died young at the age of 69. Helen McCroy (Narcissa Malfoy) she died at 52 years of age from breast cancer, you're right, they died so young too. DH deleted scenes I knew that last one with Draco was too fast. Many have already explained to you what that scene was. It never happened in the book, but they added it, then deleted it. I am so glad to know you two will be reading the books. You'll see differences from the characters in the books compared to the characters in the movies. Quite different. I enjoyed this video reaction! Now to watch your Fantastic Beasts and Where to find them" reaction video. ☮💕
Imelda Staunton who played Dolores Umbridge and Maggie Smith who played McGonagall worked with Radcliffe in the BBC movie ‘David Copperfield’. Thats the early project that Columbus saw Radcliffe.
If you loved Snape - I'd think you should watch ANY of Alan s other movies.
Especially "Robin Hood" (don't expect to much - but Alan is THE HIGHLIGHT) or "Galaxy Quest" or "Eye in the Sky" or (my personal favorite) "SnowCake"
and if you liked Helena - there is always "Sweeney Todd" with her, Alan, Timothy Spall and Jhonny Depp
Alan was great in (almost) everything
especially in theatre. I was lucky enough to have seen him live on stage a few times and it was great
Also..
Maybe plan a trip to a studio tour (I recently went to Londond for the first time it was so mind blowing amazing)
Again, thank you for letting us join you!
This is such an awesome comment!! There’s SO many Alan Rickman movies that we haven’t seen that we absolutely are going to check out! Thank you for listing some of them for us 🙌🏼. Really?! You saw him on stage 😱. That must’ve been captivating to see him perform live! Thank you for joining us on this magical journey and we hope you stay with us for much more to come!! - Chris
Good story about reading and JK Rowling: I started to read the 1st book to my son after he had seen the movie. Lots are said in books that can not be portrayed in a film so my son loved that I read to him. I received a call on night, making me step away from the reading and I told him to go ahead and read a few words (he had only started to read) and that I would be back. After that, I realized that he actually was reading more and more on his own so I started to step away more and more (making chores as excuses to go and step away from the reading). Long story a bit shorter (LOL) at the end of the series (6 books later) I had to buy 2 books the day it went out so we could both enjoy reading it at our own speed. He was actually costing me a bundle in books after than .... but I did not mind as it was a good (really good) thing for him to have as an activity.
I think Neville had the biggest glowup in history. Definitely the biggest in the franchise.
You know what? We think you’re right!! The biggest glow up in Hollywood history! We were almost taken aback for a second 😂. Love seeing your comments and hope you enjoyed the reaction 🙌🏼 - Daniela & Chris
@@TheHappyCryersReact always enjoy your reactions. Hopefully one day you'll read or listen to the books and give us a review on each one.
OMG the dance! 😂❤You guys always make my day I do happy dances with my mom all the time!❤❤ and you two look awesome! I love the sweaters😍😍
5:35 It is! I LOVE how they arranged his entrance to this passage!🥺 it's the very last paragraph from the very first chapter of book 1, it comes right after Brian dropped him on the doorstep❤
That's why I am SO HAPPY you said that you're reading the books!😍🤩
Too much details and depth, they touch on everything you pointed out watching the deleted scenes and so much more! You'll get your fill of everything! I bet you'd LOVE it guys! 😍 Please consider telling us what you think after finishing each one I'd love to know! 😍
I also truly see why you like the 4th one Chris! it had EVERYTHING, it was the thickest of the books also with LOTS of details that was just a ride!
You laugh, cringe so badly, get irritated specially with Ron lol, feel sorry for Harry and Hermione, seeing some other characters bloom and change and then at the end you feel despair, fear of the horridness of Voldemort actually being there for the first time and then cry some💔 it broke my heart specially the speech Brian did after Cedric's death💔
Watching that with you guys was so wholesome! I cackled all the way with you Chris I love how hyped you get just like every Potterhead of us despite not reading the books yet you completely understand every essential part that series aimed to deliver!
and just watching you Daniela being wonderful, wholesome and cute like you always are! you talk just like me!😍 it was so awesome watching you touch on my exact favorite parts of this reunion guys they did make it magical just like the feels of the story itself❤
Happy dances make everything better!!💃🏼🕺 thank you SO much for commenting on our sweaters! ❤️ We are so pumped to have them🙌🏻
Omg really?! That’s so cute! It’s a full-circle moment! That was a very nice touch of them!😍
We are actually are considering it! It would be awesome to finally read the books and share our thoughts with people that love them just as much!🥰 I also can’t wait to read about all the little details that you have mentioned that were missed in the movie. We love the movies so much, we have no doubt we’d love the books even more! 🙌🏻❤️ I’ve cried, laughed, got frustrated and everything in between with the movies I can see myself going through all of it again with the books…and you know what? I’m ready! The only thing I’m not ready for is to feel Dobby’s death again. 🥺
THANK YOU!! Yes! The 4th one to me brings nostalgia but it’s also so heavily packed with emotions that they are discovering for the first time. I’m so glad you can relate and see why I love the 4th movie 🙌🏻. Also, thank you so much for saying that! It really means a lot that enjoyed my reaction to these movies and laughed at my jokes! it really does mean a lot! - Chris
I love that you said that because we do have very similar thoughts and opinions on many scenes! I feel like we’d be great friends!🤗💗

FYI:
The scene showing Seamus setting the charges to blow up the bridge gave a nod to his part in the Battle for Hogwarts. He and Neville had been the butt of many jokes throughout the books but in Deathly Hallows they are shown to be intelligent, talented, courageous young men.This scene not only gives Seamus some glory but also prepares us for the later scene when the bridge actually blows up. Seamus' "proclivity for pyrotechnics" proves useful!
In the book, the Slytherins were not locked in the dungeon. McGonagal, who took seriously the task of protecting students, would not have sent them to the dungeon. The Slytherins and the younger students were sent to safety outside of the castle (I believe through the portrait Neville used) but Draco and his two followers came back. So did Ginny and some others who were also under age. The Order of the Phoenix came in the same way.
The scene when Draco calls out to Harry is when he threw his wand to Harry; Voldemort, obviously, would have confiscated Harry's wand. Draco went to his parents because his mother called for him. He must have known his mother loved him unconditionally and would never ask him to do something that would harm him. This was not his experience with his father.
Also, in the book, there are many more scenes with Harry and Ginny together -- and snogging, of course! -- to show the development of their relationship -- especially in Half Blood Prince but also in Deathly Hallows. It's a shame her role was cut out of the movies. She was clearly Harry's match and a powerful witch in her own rights.
Also in Deathly Hallows, while the 3 were at Grimmald Place (Sirius' house), Lupin came to them wanting to join them in their mission. Harry was angry with him for abandoning his wife and son and told him to go back. Lupin did. Harry was Teddy's (Remus' and Tonks' son) godfather.
Nymphadora Tonks was the daughter of Andromeda (sister to Bellatrix and Narcissus -- Draco's mother -- and Sirius' cousin) and Ted Tonks, a muggle (which is why Andromeda's face was burned from the family tree like Sirius' -- explained in that deleted scene showing the family tree). Ted died while on the run in Deathly Hallows; muggles were supposed to register but he refused to. Andromeda stayed with her daughter who was pregnant at the time. He was later killed by Snatchers, leaving Andromeda a widow. Teddy had not only a godfather in Harry but also his grandmother to raise him.
Thank you so much for providing all these details into the deleted scenes from the books! It really gave the scenes more depth and make more sense (at least to us) after reading your comment! You’re right, a lot of roles and details were cut for the movies! As always, we love seeing your explanations as they provide us with a much deeper insight into HP as a whole! We hope you enjoyed our reaction 🙌🏼 - Chris
Daniel Radcliffe acted with Maggie Smith (Prof. McGonagall) in "David Copperfield". A wonderful movie.
Tom Felton acted with Jody Foster in "Anna And The King". A beautiful movie, too.
I was so happy when I learned they chose Daniel to play Harry because I loved him so much in David Copperfield. He was cute as a button :)))
Wow! That’s such a cool fact! 😱. Daniel Radcliffe and Maggie Smith acted together before HP? Thank you so much for sharing that! I know we saw Daniel in the reunion special acting in something else BUT we didn’t know that Maggie was there too! She must’ve saw that this cute little kid had some serious talent!! Oh you’re 100% right, he was very cute 😊. We hope you enjoyed the reaction! - Daniela & Chris
@@TheHappyCryersReact
Of course, I enjoyed your reactions.
I`ve been there with you from part 1 to the end :)))
Daniela and Chris, I really hope you will complete your Hogwarts journey with the Fantastic Beasts Trilogy.
It`s very interesting, magical, and fun to watch. It also adds information to the HP world. Because it`s happening in the '30s, Harry and his friends aren`t there, but young Brian (Dumbledore) and his brother are, and even young McGonagall has her moments :). And of course, we get to see Hogwarts again :)))
Also, the importance of Grindelwald is explained.
The main character is Newt Scamander (played by charming Eddie Redmayne), who is a sweetheart. The actors are super well-chosen :)
Fun fact: Luna Lovegood never married Nevil Longbottom but fell in love with Newt`s grandson instead and married him. So, there is also that connection to the HP story.
I am convinced you would like the Trilogy.
Thank you for your heartfelt reactions!❤

Thanks for replying! I just got done reading the third book, and cedric and harry had a lot of dialogue, mostly about quidditch, which they had games against each other, cedric at some point suggested gryffindor and hufflepuff should have a rematch after harry's broom broke in the match with the storm and dementors. He did not think it was a fair game for harry. Cedric was always super nice. I can't wait to read the 4th book and see how different it is. @@TheHappyCryersReact

Tom Feltons documentary Super Fan is a good watch.
I wish you watch Harry Potter Pitch Meeting compilation by Ryan George. It's a must watch.
Although I also love the 4th movie, it’s hard for me to admit it’s my favorite because… the 4th book was by far my favorite book. It was perfect, imo. I’ve always felt like it could have been split into 2-3 movies. You could probably say that about every book after Chamber, but I bet that’s why they’re making a tv series. There was SO much left out of the 4th movie. That being said, I think my top three MOVIES in no particular order are Prisoner, Goblet, Phoenix. Thanks for taking us on this journey with you! ❤🎉
That’s fair enough! A lot of people have explained that the 4th movie does not even compare to the 4th book, at all! Wait what!? They’re making a tv series? Explain please! 😱. That’s a very respectable list for your top 3 favourite movies! Honestly… I would have to agree with you!! 🙌🏼.

@@TheHappyCryersReactJK wasn't invited to participate because of the controversy around her views on trans not being women. She said she respected and supported trans people but they weren't the same as biological women. The trans activists got offended and it blew up all over Twitter at the time.
@@toodlescae Wow… That’s really unfortunate to be punished for respecting and supporting a movement but not necessarily every single aspect of its ideals. No matter what someone’s opinion is, she 100% should’ve been invited because without JK… There’s literally none of this? Just wow. Thank you for sharing this with us! - Chris
@@TheHappyCryersReact Exactly! - especially since Rowling explained her line of thinking. She wrote something to the effect of - if you deny the existence of biological gender, you're also negating the whole problem and also the struggles and the sufferings of women through history. If biological gender is not a thing, then the entire problem, feminism, the struggle for gender equality is diluted.
She was criticized, cancelled, most of the actors turned against her and released statements criticizing her stance.
People continue to label her as transphobic.
Rowling stands by her opinion to this day and if I know anything abut her, she will never change her mind.
It's sad, that we got to a point where we can't even disagree on the smallest of details without enmity.
JK said something not so nice about trans people so they had to make sure people knew Her shots were from Before she said those comments. That's why they specified when they filmed her scenes
Guys, it was great following you through this!
I really appreciate the fact that you both really understand what must have gone into this story, the absolute genius of J. K. Rowling.
By the way, she never had a middle name, she is simply Joanne Rowling. But when the first book came out, the publishers asked her to use initials because they felt that a book written by a woman would not sell too well. So she adopted her favorite grandmother's name, Kathleen and so she became J. K.
If you really want to understand her, I suggest two documentaries to you. Whether a a reaction (which I would appreciate and love) or just to watch and enjoy by yourselves if that's what you prefer:
The first one is following her for an entire year during which the Deathly Hallows was finished, published, there's a lot of back story, prepare a big pack of tissues.

The second one is a conversation between Rowling and the screenwriter, Steve Kloves:

Thank you so much for your kind words!! We always love seeing comments from you 🙌🏼. Can’t believe we made it to the end already! WAIT WHAT?! That is actually incredible that ‘J.K.’ literally comes from her needing to take on a middle name, so she chose her favourite grandmother’s name… You just blew our minds! We will absolutely take your suggestions for her documentaries, thank you!! There’s so much more to come, so we hope you’re staying with us! - Chris & Daniela
@@TheHappyCryersReact Thank you, you are very kind! You made me really happy by saying you'll read the books. When you'll finish them, you'll understand why I think that everyone should read them. In the mean time, feel free to ask me any questions that might occur to you, I'm a massive Potterhead, I read the entire series many times, I watched and listened to every interview, documentary.
About the deleted scenes: If you watch the last one in slow motion, you can see that Draco gives Harry his own wand. As he is running towards him and screams "Potter", he throws his wand to him. And that would have been both inconsistent (it's not shown or implied anywhere that Harry lost his wand - a wand also taken from Draco - so why would he need another one?) and a plot hole because how could Harry fight Voldemort with a wand that he doesn't master, a wand that is still faithful to Draco (since it wasn't removed from him against his will)? - well, actually the wand iDraco uses now sn't even Draco's, Narcissa lent hers to him. So that would have been a huge mess from the "wand chooses the wizard" point of view.
This is an inconsistency they managed to avoid. With others they've been a lot less careful.
Isn't it interesting that Harry doesn't feel anything when he destroys the diary or when Dumbledore destroys the ring?
Voldemort doesn't feel anything when the ring and the locket are destroyed, even though he's back in his body, he doesn't realize that someone is killing his Horcruxes? Yet they both have very intense reactions when the cup and the diadem are stabbed.
Btw. Dumbledore is an old English word for bumblebee.
The reason it says 2019 when jk Rowling is on screen is to show the interview was before her anti trans views were known
So JK I believe declined the chance to participate in this special. I could be wrong, but by this time her transphobic/ TERF statements had already started. So it was a publicity thing. That's why they used clips of her from a previous special.
Oh wow, really? That’s very unfortunate because this franchise is all her creation and to have missed out on being a part of this celebratory event must’ve been hard. At least they included her in it! Thank you for sharing this because I was genuinely confused! - Chris
I thought they just had to say this was filmed before her transphobic comments lol. I thought everyone filmed in 2019
Aww thank you SO much!! We feel very thankful that you love our reactions and support us! There’s much more to come, we promise 🙌🏼 - Daniela & Chris
