I'm sort of thankful his mother wasn't there, because I can barely hold it together when his father loses it, if I had to watch his mom go through it too I would have fell apart.
just a general fyi, the reason neville is so disturbed by the spell moody is casting on that spider thing is because that was the same spell that was cast on neville's own parents. it caused them to lose their minds, and they had to live in a mental institution due to its effects.
Same one Lockhart ended up in, St.Mungo's(though sadly, they cut the reveal of the parents after their torutre out of the movie for OOTP, which I thought was a bad idea.)
they cut Neville's grandma from the films which is a shame since he's such a huge part of Neville's story She raised Neville, she's absurdly proud of his son and daughter-in-law's sacrifice and constantly bothers Neville with high expectations that he should live up to them (while poor Neville always visits them in the mental hospital and sees just where that bravery got them) She's old friends with McGonagal who urges her to "be proud of the granndson she hasm not the one she wants to have"
i only just put it together but Barty Crouch was one of those who tortured them, so him choosing Neville to demonstrate the curse is most likely intentional and extra malicious
Honestly, Harry not being able to let go of Cedric’s body, the juxtaposition of everyone cheering when something terrible has happened, and the wailing of Cedric’s dad as he realizes his son is gone is one of the saddest moments in the whole franchise. It’s so interesting to me because we were introduced to Cedric for the first time in this movie, and for the duration of the movie, he isn’t necessarily a special character. He’s just there. But his death was so impactful. The way his head was laid back, with his eyes wide open upon his death is an image I can never forget about.
I mean, his death was only really impactful because it was Voldemort who did it. His goons anyway and that Harry was almost caught too. I do wish we got more Cedric through the entire series, I think Robert Pattinson made a great character in both HP and Twilight. I think many people misunderstand that he’s a vampire, and has to old back and uncontrollable urge that he’s had for a century to meet this specific girl. He did a good job portraying both characters.
It's the one moment of the entire franchise that really grabs me. It is just so devastating, Harry's sitting there, just fought the most evil man in the universe, barely escaped with his life, holding the body of his friend who, though he's only there for a short time, is just kind and generous to a fault, and didn't deserve any of this. And all the people around him cheering like that because they just don't know. And then the dad slowly realizes it. It rips my heart out just thinking about it. The implication there is that we're sad because we care about what Harry's going through, and not about Cedric specifically, and to be honest, I'm not the biggest fan of these books so I don't even care about Harry terribly much. But that moment is just an absolutely fantastic storytelling moment, one of a very few I can name off the top of my head, and I can get behind that.
Supposedly in the book(s) he was more present and it was only in the goblet of fire he became a big part of the story and then he died. But that’s what someone told me, I have yet to read the books hehe.
"I've never seen Dumbledore get angry like that" is right because he doesn't ever get like that. The whole scene feels so weird because the director apparently didn't read the book, but in that scene Dumbledore is calm and wise and reasonable and slowly unpacks the situation with logic and empathy for Harry. Why Gambon played it so crazed and over the top and why the director didn't stop him I have no idea.
Really weird that the director didn't read the book, but I'm sure a lot of people around him did and might have advised him on how it's said. My thought is that Dumbledore takes an angry parental role and tries to scold the truth out of Harry hoping that Harry is still that mischievous child, otherwise he knows it's more sinister. From the Death Eaters attacking, having to set the entire school up for this event, trying to make his school look great in front of all the other schools, then Harry somehow ends up in the tournament. Kind of like that one nice teacher we've all seen get pissed. This man is stressed.
I get it wasn’t like that in the book, but I think it works well in the movie. It made the scene more tense, and showed that Dumbledore didn’t know what was going on. I think people complain about this way too much
Dumbledore does get pissed tho, for example in prisoner of Azkaban when the dementors attacked harry they said Dumbledore was so pissed everyone was shook so maybe he just trying to relay dumbledores protective nature around harry
The audience was aging with the actors.actresses within the movie. They really did tailor the movies to the developing audience and i think its wonderful thing. You'll love the rest of them. Look forward to more HP videos !
Soo true I was 11 when the first book came out and I aged with the cast (same age as hermione) anf it was wonderful to see the stages of life portrayed along with the story ❤
@@medranowendy408 You and I both. I enjoy the teen filled drama aspect of it now more than ever since is such a novelty, yet a blast to the past. Relatable at times (despite the magic aspect of course lol).
House Hufflepuff represent! Hermione's entrance at the dance had an even bigger impact in the books. She had large front teeth and bushy hair (which they only did for like the first movie or so), but both were fixed via magic, so she had a full-on Cinderella transformation at the ball. Harry and Ron were used to her being a tomboy, but suddenly she's this gorgeous woman to them. And only Victor realized her true beauty before then.
I love that you comment on the production elements of the movie, not just the story. I am a Ravenclaw. My 9 yo son wants to take the test but I said not until he turns 11, like real wizards. Lol
Are the tests really reliable? The Pottermore one isn't available anymore, but I've taken several extensive ones, some of them repeatedly, and I've been a Slytherin, a Griffindor and a Hufflepuff. Hmmm... I don't trust the results
@@iulia.bianca.b the official test is still there, the site is just called wizarding world now. Part of sorting is your choice, remember Harry chose his house, the hat was willing to put him in Slytherin, and suggested Ravenclaw and Hufflepuff would be good enough fits too. A great wizard needs aspects of all four houses.
Quick aside: it was Dobby who stole the gillyweed from Snape's office. This book was gigantic, and they had to remove tons of stuff from the plot else the movie would have been six hours long! :-)
Yeah, in the book Moodys plan to make Neville help Harry with the underwater task failed, simply because Harry never thought of asking Neville for help. But he mentioned Gillyweed as a possible solution for the task while talking to McGonnagall and Dobby overheard that and helped Harry just in time after he overslept.
@@XxXSinkerXxX Moody even made Dobby clean the teachers lounge just so Dobby Could overhear him. Inreally would've liked to see the kitchen and S.P.E.W. but most importantly i would've liked to see the quiditch world cup match and the creatures in the maze
@@Ryan79345 Imagine yourself given the job of scripting this book for a film. What would you cut out? I feel the same disappointment that every book-Potter-fan feels, but what else could the filmmakers do?
I always cry when Cedric's father starts wailing. So, so relatable. Yes they keep getting darker and you will definitely tear up but there are also cool new characters and happy times to come!
Re: the age gap, Hermione is 15, she’s the eldest of the Trio, about 9-10 months older than Harry. Krum is 18, but still in school. That age gap wouldn’t raise the same eyebrows in the U.K as it would in the U.S, from my observations of both.
Probably because in the UK, 15 is damn near age of consent (which is 16). It would be like a 17 year old dating a 20 year old here in her US. A little out of the ordinary, and maybe enough to make some people laugh at the 20 year old that he can't get a date his own age, but nothing super scandalous.
as someone from the uk, that is incorrect. People judged me for having crushes on people only one or two years off from me and my friends wouldn't support the relationship I was in with someone two years younger even though we're both under 18. So yeah it's a massive thing.
Your analysis of this universe is spot on. How things get darker and darker, the stakes become real and it just pulls you deeper and deeper into it and gets you as the audience invested in the characters. You grow with the kids.
Ravenclaw here. I love your reactions! To answer some of your questions: the red firework in the maze was to call for help for Fleur per Dumbledore’s instructions at the start of the maze; you are right that Neville would not steal from Snape because it was Dobby who did so in the book; yes the captives were aware that they were going to be bait in the lake and they were not going to die if a champion failed. In the book, Dumbledore is friends with the merpeople and they help willingly; when Tom and Harry duel, their wands react strangely because they share a core. There is a ball of light where they meet, and that ball moves according to the wizard’s will. Harry forced it all the way back into Tom’s wand, which means he had a stronger will than Tom. This forced the wand to basically backfire and start spitting out shadows of its last few spells, something the books explained in detail back during the quidditch championships when they were trying to see who had cast the dark mark in the sky. The last spells Tom’s wand had cast were of course to kill Cedric, the caretaker, and Harry’s parents. Finally, that old man wasn’t being nosy. He was the caretaker for the old Riddle manor, living in a small caretaker’s cottage on the premises, so he’s responsible for maintaining it and chasing off trespassers.
Neville'sparents had the crucio curse used on them. Also, Moody was looking at Harry because Harry is the only person who's ever survived the killing curse.
39:20 N'ah. Karkaroff ran as soon as he felt the Dark Mark and knew that Voldemort was back. He knew he'd be killed as a traitor. Fortunately his students already knew how to steer the ship to get home, Karkaroff always just stayed below deck and let them do all the work. In the book during the ball he was starring at Hermione and Viktor dancing together with a similar expression to Ron's so we know that he hasn't changed his views on Muggle-born students like Hermione.
Omg yes that performance from Jeff Rawle (Amos Diggory) gets me every time you could tell that his son meant the world to him , it doesn’t matter how many times you see it the tears always come. I was the same age as the characters in the movie every time the movies came out, so growing up with them was so awesome. / proud Hufflepuff 🦡💛
Not to disagree with you but I'm curious which character were the same age as you during the franchise. Because the series takes place over seven years but released over ten. Only reason why I remember it so well is both me and Harry were 17 come deathly hallows pt2 but the other 7 films he was older
I already can’t wait for these next movies to shatter your heart like it did to an entire generation of kid readers who were growing into adults. Popcorn time.
11:24 Something that the 3rd movie failed to mention was the identities of the Marauders. You are correct in assuming that Wormtail=Pettigrew, but the other three are as follows: Moony=Lupin, Padfoot=Sirius, and Prongs= James Potter. The book version of Prisoner of Azkaban had a whole lore dump chapter that was cut out of the movie for being, well, a bunch of characters sitting in the Shrieking Shack and talking.
The attack at the world cup was so different in the book. All though it was somewhat less chaotic, the treatment of the muggles by the death eaters was somehow more terrifying.
I really wish they included the scene where Severus reads Rita Skeeter's love triangle article out loud during Potions class when he caught Hermione reading it during class. It was so dang funny. 😂🐍🐍🐍Fellow Slytherin here.
As you go through the films, they do get darker in tone, it really goes from more of an introduction to a magical world to an ultimate fight for the magical world. It's almost like the story grows up along with the characters.
In the books even the language grows with the readers. My son tried to read the last one as part of the english class (we're swedish) and he had read the first, but the seventh was way too difficult for him!
Yoooooo...I am waiting for Order of the Phoenix on here 🤗 I think it is my absolute FAVORITE and (aside from Deathly Hollows Part 2) TRULY put me on an emotional roller coaster
Great reaction! I’m not joking I have literally watched this movie at least 100 times and I still cry when Amos Diggory realises Cedric is dead. EVERY SINGLE TIME
This one really takes a different turn. The 3rd film already feels quite different from the first two, but I’d say the rest of the films follow suit to this one. In terms of editing and direction at least.
One of the main things I love about the Harry Potter movies is the introductions with the Warner Bros Symbol. If you have noticed, each movie the scene which the symbol is on gets progressively darker with each movie. To the point that in the last movie - you can barely see the symbol. Another thing is the curses. The crucio ( I hope I spelled that correctly ) spell affects Neville because its the same spell that puts his parents into the mental institute. I think in the books, there is a whole chapter dedicated what happened to Neville's parents. The killing curse and why Moody seems to look at Harry weirdly is the fact that Harry is the only one to have survived it.
As a huge fan of the books, one of my favorite parts in the movie was how Dumbledore delivers his line at 9:05. In the book he asks Harry "calmly" if he put his name in the Goblet of Fire instead of screaming "HARRY DID YA PUT YA NAME IN DA GOBLET OF FIYAH??!!" Cracks me up every time.
In my opinion, Cedric's father (Amos) wailing over his sons death is the best bit of acting in the entire franchise. That scene always brings me to tears.
Hufflepuff for life, man. They get a lot of disrespect, but they're really one of the best houses. Loyal, diligent, honest...like Cedric, just damn good people. (Yeah, I know, that's kinda like bragging, but we've gotta have something if we're not built to be the main protagonists or the main villains. lol)
The graveyard scene is one of my favorites. Voldemort back at full power after so long. He's both manic and elated which just adds to his madness with him "dueling" Harry. Teaching him about the etiquette of a duel then showing off his power by torturing him. Him screaming, " I want you to look at me when I kill you! I want to see the light leave your eyes!" I get chills every time.
Since you asked: Moony - Remus Lupin the werewolf; Wormtail - Peter Pettigrew the rat; Padfoot - Sirius Black the dog; Prongs - James Potter the stag Together they wrote the Marauders' Map when they were at school.
This one gets me everytime the way he makes sure to get Cedric's body and his father cries out "my boy". Boy that graveyard scene was intense. I feel bad because had Harry been selfish he would have never died. Quite frankly, I would have spit right in Voldemort face when he was trying to get my blood. And Gryffindor 🤬
yeah, this one is when it starts getting darker. hope that's not a spoiler. fun fact, the actor who played mad-eye moody, brendan gleeson, is the father of domhnall (pronounced "donnal", the m is silent) gleeson, who plays bill weasley, who if i remember correctly, is the eldest of the weasley brothers.
Hufflepuff! And when it comes to HP this was probably my favorite of the books. It was the first one that was released where people were lining up and trying to get them on release day. it was when 'Potter-mania' really began (at least around me). And the book was much, much more in depth than the movie, but this was still a great movie. I actually wasn't the biggest fan of the 3rd movie because they changed a ton of stuff from the book (that didn't need to be changed), but just wait for what's to come because there are some really great things to come.
The book is definitely better but to be honest this was a pretty good adaptation. There was no way they could do a complete adaptation of this book without splitting it into 2 parts.
@@alucard624 Or making the movie five friggin' hours long. I hate it when some book fans whine about how much was cut out. Good grief, do you not remember how friggin' MASSIVE the book was?
Thanks for the reaction! What a nice new years eve surprise! In the books, it was actually Dobby the house elf (remember him from movie 2?) who stole the gillyweed and gave it to Harry! After Harry freed Dobby Dumbledore hired him to work at Hogwarts. I agree with you-- I can't see Neville stealing from Snape, very out of character.
- Neville's parents were tortured by Crucio Bellatrix Lestrange (Sirius Black's cousin) - In order to master the forbidden spells perfectly, you really have to want to subdue, torture, and kill someone, and it takes years! - The scene where Dumbledore grabbed Harry interrogating him whether he really threw his name into the Cup infuriated book readers))) - Harry's wand is ironically the twin of Voldemort's wand, namely both have the core of the phoenix feather, this is also the reason why they cannot harm each other...
@@seigeengine Forbidden spells take a lot of time, mostly years + it depends on the skill level of the wizard and what kind of pedigree he has along the biological magical line...Bellatrix, for example, spent many years to master Avada Kedavra.I am aware that they belong to the same Phoenix, which is what I was saying that they are twins of the same feather.
Every time you tear up about death It also makes me tear up. I’ve seen it too, it’s why I don’t sleep. Watching your videos always helps with that. You have a huge heart and a beautiful personality! You’re the best Mel!🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
The real Moody was still alive in chest because fake one fed him and make sure he survived so he can copy his behavior and had an access to his hairs for the potion)
I'm going to gush on every video about how much pure genuine joy I'm getting from watching these with you. I can't thank you enough for the content you provide.
Yo Mell that sweater is fire 🔥 Love this one it’s my favorite! However all the movies have a special place in my heart Really enjoying these reactions Amos Diggory’s wailing 😭 gets me every time
I have a prediction for you. By the time you finish this series, you're going to be a die hard Potter fan. The best is yet to come. My personal favorite film is probably The Half-blood Prince. For me, it's the Empire Strikes Back of the Potter films. And yeah man, I'm with you in that scene of Cedric's father reacting to his loss. That actor did an amazing job with that wail of pain. That felt real. Hearing someone's heart break like that is devastating. I'm ready for your reaction to the next 4 films.
Fun Fact:In the books at the Yule ball Harry didn’t even realize it was Hermione with Viktor Krum until looking at her closer because she had her hair done up differently. Im in Ravenclaw by the way!
Seriously love your reactions, Mello!! Thank you for all the work you put into these!! It's so great to get to share the experience in a way and love your commentary! XD
As painful as Cedric's passing was it was beautiful seeing him inspire Harry to be courageous even in the face of death against the Dark Lord himself. He wasn't afraid.
A lot of the things you have questions about are in the books. As the movies go along, you're gonna be confused more and more often if you haven't read the books.
Taken from the book: "Harry, did you put your name in the Goblet of Fire?" Dumbledore asked calmlly. CALMLY. The conspiracy of Barty Crouch Jr. was revealed to go further. He's the one who imperius's Krum to get Cedric out of the way and curses Fleur in the maze. However, despite the fact he's a major witness, Cornelius Fudge brings a dementor with him as security and it gives him the Dementors Kiss, sucking out his soul and making him useless as a witness. Theres a side plot which was removed that I was upset about, as it sets up a great deal of the conflict in the next film, but the journalist Rita Skeeter begins publishing secrets and its revealed she's an animagus, taking the form of a beetle to spy. She reveals Hagrid is half giant and also that Harry is a parseltongue. Ralph Fiennes is amazing as Voldemort. But the tone of the movie definitely didn't feel like it was setting up for the moment of his return. My friend even said he thought a totally different director filmed the graveyard sequence. The book does mention that the shared cores make Voldemort unable to kill Harry(and the Phoenix that gave the wands cores was Fawkes, Dumbledores pet.) It doesn't mention it in the later movies, but Karkaroff, the Headmaster of Durmstrang, runs off rather than return to Voldemort and is killed years later as punishment for snitching.
I forget if it was explored in the books or not, but I believe Igor Karkaroff (Durmstrang headmaster) tampered with the goblet of fire too. But it wasn't to help Barty Crouch Jr., It was to ensure that it was Viktor Krum's name that was chosen as the Durmstrang champion. Although Sirius said "no one stops being a death eater" I do not believe that is true, and Karkaroff is indeed reformed from his old death eating ways.
Absolutely subscribed here after watching just one video. You are really following along and and enjoying the movie and making comments about the production and plot line which is so enjoyable to see!!
This one is probably my favorite but I feel the third one is the best directed. HAPPY NEW YEAR! Hoping you have a fantastic 2022 Mello and everyone else!
This is my personal favorite of the movies (although they are all fantastic and the next few ones especially are an experience). I've been enjoying all your HP reactions, glad you decided to just do them all in a row , it really helps getting you immersed into the world.
Movies don't pull tears from me. But that scene, the discord between the celebratory music that belongs to an irrevocably lost world, and the horror that has replaced it, as well as the heart-rending wail of Cedric's father... that always get's me.
I had never clocked how close Avada Kedavra sounded to Abracadabra until you said it and now I’m wheezing. My husband keeps looking over at me while driving like tf is going on with you? 😂
I remember when these were the movies to see every summer, similar to what Marvel is to people now. I love watching you get into the story! Enjoy the ride man!
House Ravenclaw represent Yo Mello just wanted to say to you,your fans and your family Have a Happy New Year and i can't wait to see what you'll react to next. Much respect From one TH-camr to another.
Yeah, this is the movie that cut a lot of things out of the book that it made it feel incomplete to me when i first watched it. This film is kind of the reason why I kind of want you to watch some videos from Movieflame talking about the differences between book and film, as he did for all eight movies. I do say that you don't need to react to them, but can watch them after finishing all eight films as there are some spoiliers for the other films, and you should wait after viewing all the films, and if you have time.
This is actually the only movie I thought better than the book. That book had about 200+ pages of nothing but filler if you ask me. It was what the 3rd movie cut from the book that most bothered me. Still great books great movies and so far as movies based upon books go you gotta say HP is amongst the very best
Sure there are differences but at least the movie cut the filler parts, gave nevill a moment which the book even hinted to and it added so much terror to the trials We may lose Ludo Bagman and learning that the challenges are safer than a play-pen in the books but in my opinion I think the whole fan base thinks it's a good change. You cant argue that it's a bad adaptation when the only gripe people seem to have with it is that Dumbledore says the same words but with different intent (Did'ya put ya name in the Goblet of Fiyah!!!!!!!)
@@flugsven I like all the movies better than I used to. Because it has been awhile since I read the books so I don't remember what isn't included so well
Ravenclaw here, with a snake Patronus: love love love watching people react to this wonderful world which made my life so much richer and full of wonder. Was waiting for this one and came wait for the next!
Fellow Slytherin here! This is probably my favorite movie in the franchise, there’s just so much more world building in this one (and others going forward) and it’s really interesting to watch :)
The lead singer of the band at the Yule Ball is Jarvis Cocker from the band Pulp, which was huge in the UK in the late 90s. They had hits with Common People and Disco 2000. And I’m a Hufflepuff.
I loved your reaction and I also loved that you showed yourself getting emotional. The 4th movie/book is one of my favourites. To answer your question as to which house I belong to, it's Ravenclaw. I did the test twice, once when it first came out years ago and again maybe a year ago, so I'm quite positive I'm a true Ravenclaw 😄
20:20: It’s not a real band, but the band members are famous Brit musicians irl! The lead singer is Jarvis Cocker of Pulp and one of the guitarists in the back is Johnny Greenwood of Radiohead.

@@goldilox369 One don't even have the time to mourn him, because of all the Voldy stuff!
I love that you comment on the production elements of the movie, not just the story. I am a Ravenclaw. My 9 yo son wants to take the test but I said not until he turns 11, like real wizards. Lol
Sometimes I think we sort too early
Love it 😅❤
Fun idea! It gives him something to look forward to and adds an element of magic to it!
Are the tests really reliable? The Pottermore one isn't available anymore, but I've taken several extensive ones, some of them repeatedly, and I've been a Slytherin, a Griffindor and a Hufflepuff. Hmmm... I don't trust the results
@@iulia.bianca.b the official test is still there, the site is just called wizarding world now. Part of sorting is your choice, remember Harry chose his house, the hat was willing to put him in Slytherin, and suggested Ravenclaw and Hufflepuff would be good enough fits too. A great wizard needs aspects of all four houses.
Quick aside: it was Dobby who stole the gillyweed from Snape's office. This book was gigantic, and they had to remove tons of stuff from the plot else the movie would have been six hours long! :-)
Yeah, in the book Moodys plan to make Neville help Harry with the underwater task failed, simply because Harry never thought of asking Neville for help. But he mentioned Gillyweed as a possible solution for the task while talking to McGonnagall and Dobby overheard that and helped Harry just in time after he overslept.
@@XxXSinkerXxX Moody even made Dobby clean the teachers lounge just so Dobby Could overhear him. Inreally would've liked to see the kitchen and S.P.E.W. but most importantly i would've liked to see the quiditch world cup match and the creatures in the maze
And yet the movie was still great just like the rest of them
@@Ryan79345 Imagine yourself given the job of scripting this book for a film. What would you cut out? I feel the same disappointment that every book-Potter-fan feels, but what else could the filmmakers do?
They should have made it that long. Like lord of the rings
I always cry when Cedric's father starts wailing. So, so relatable. Yes they keep getting darker and you will definitely tear up but there are also cool new characters and happy times to come!

Re: the age gap, Hermione is 15, she’s the eldest of the Trio, about 9-10 months older than Harry. Krum is 18, but still in school. That age gap wouldn’t raise the same eyebrows in the U.K as it would in the U.S, from my observations of both.
Probably because in the UK, 15 is damn near age of consent (which is 16). It would be like a 17 year old dating a 20 year old here in her US. A little out of the ordinary, and maybe enough to make some people laugh at the 20 year old that he can't get a date his own age, but nothing super scandalous.
as someone from the uk, that is incorrect. People judged me for having crushes on people only one or two years off from me and my friends wouldn't support the relationship I was in with someone two years younger even though we're both under 18. So yeah it's a massive thing.
@@izoneateeztxtforever369 interesting - certainly not my experience, sorry that happened to you.
@@izoneateeztxtforever369 You just need to find new friends it seems. Judging someone for something this minor is weird as hell.
Also, don't forget that she aged ~twice during year 3 because of her constant time travel.
Your analysis of this universe is spot on. How things get darker and darker, the stakes become real and it just pulls you deeper and deeper into it and gets you as the audience invested in the characters. You grow with the kids.
Ravenclaw here. I love your reactions! To answer some of your questions: the red firework in the maze was to call for help for Fleur per Dumbledore’s instructions at the start of the maze; you are right that Neville would not steal from Snape because it was Dobby who did so in the book; yes the captives were aware that they were going to be bait in the lake and they were not going to die if a champion failed. In the book, Dumbledore is friends with the merpeople and they help willingly; when Tom and Harry duel, their wands react strangely because they share a core. There is a ball of light where they meet, and that ball moves according to the wizard’s will. Harry forced it all the way back into Tom’s wand, which means he had a stronger will than Tom. This forced the wand to basically backfire and start spitting out shadows of its last few spells, something the books explained in detail back during the quidditch championships when they were trying to see who had cast the dark mark in the sky. The last spells Tom’s wand had cast were of course to kill Cedric, the caretaker, and Harry’s parents. Finally, that old man wasn’t being nosy. He was the caretaker for the old Riddle manor, living in a small caretaker’s cottage on the premises, so he’s responsible for maintaining it and chasing off trespassers.
Neville'sparents had the crucio curse used on them. Also, Moody was looking at Harry because Harry is the only person who's ever survived the killing curse.
Furthermore it bas Crouch Jr with Bellatrix who tortured his parents so knowing now that the professor was BCJ is f***ed up
Neville reveals that in the next film.
39:20 N'ah. Karkaroff ran as soon as he felt the Dark Mark and knew that Voldemort was back. He knew he'd be killed as a traitor. Fortunately his students already knew how to steer the ship to get home, Karkaroff always just stayed below deck and let them do all the work. In the book during the ball he was starring at Hermione and Viktor dancing together with a similar expression to Ron's so we know that he hasn't changed his views on Muggle-born students like Hermione.
Omg yes that performance from Jeff Rawle (Amos Diggory) gets me every time you could tell that his son meant the world to him , it doesn’t matter how many times you see it the tears always come. I was the same age as the characters in the movie every time the movies came out, so growing up with them was so awesome. / proud Hufflepuff 🦡💛
Not to disagree with you but I'm curious which character were the same age as you during the franchise. Because the series takes place over seven years but released over ten.
Only reason why I remember it so well is both me and Harry were 17 come deathly hallows pt2 but the other 7 films he was older
I already can’t wait for these next movies to shatter your heart like it did to an entire generation of kid readers who were growing into adults. Popcorn time.
Eh bored me tbh

11:24 Something that the 3rd movie failed to mention was the identities of the Marauders. You are correct in assuming that Wormtail=Pettigrew, but the other three are as follows: Moony=Lupin, Padfoot=Sirius, and Prongs= James Potter. The book version of Prisoner of Azkaban had a whole lore dump chapter that was cut out of the movie for being, well, a bunch of characters sitting in the Shrieking Shack and talking.
The attack at the world cup was so different in the book. All though it was somewhat less chaotic, the treatment of the muggles by the death eaters was somehow more terrifying.
Mello: "These last two movie's finales have been on-point."
Me: *excited for Order of the Phoenix*
Me: Excited for Halfblood Prince
The red spark harry sent up in the maze was for them to come and get fleur, dumbledor said it was to alert them to a contestant wanting to withdraw
It affects Neville because his parents were tortured to their insanity with that curse.
I really wish they included the scene where Severus reads Rita Skeeter's love triangle article out loud during Potions class when he caught Hermione reading it during class. It was so dang funny. 😂🐍🐍🐍Fellow Slytherin here.
Snape thought Harry was stealing ingredients for poly juice potion. It wasn't about the gillyweed.
I just imagined Potter walking down to the podium saying "Yo mama not seventeen yet". I´m fucking dead.
Cedric’s dad gets me every time. Literally.. i I saw it in the theaters when it was released and I vividly remember crying.
Neville lives with his grandmother because death eaters used that curse on his parents. That's why he was upset.
As you go through the films, they do get darker in tone, it really goes from more of an introduction to a magical world to an ultimate fight for the magical world. It's almost like the story grows up along with the characters.
In the books even the language grows with the readers. My son tried to read the last one as part of the english class (we're swedish) and he had read the first, but the seventh was way too difficult for him!
Yoooooo...I am waiting for Order of the Phoenix on here 🤗 I think it is my absolute FAVORITE and (aside from Deathly Hollows Part 2) TRULY put me on an emotional roller coaster
Same.
Is that the 5th movie? I forget the names of them but I remember really liking that one and the last one!
SAMEEE MY FAV
He's gonna really like Umbridge. I MEAN IT. 😁
The 4th book is my favorite but the movie is my least favorite. The 5th movie is my favorite as well.
Great reaction! I’m not joking I have literally watched this movie at least 100 times and I still cry when Amos Diggory realises Cedric is dead. EVERY SINGLE TIME
This one really takes a different turn. The 3rd film already feels quite different from the first two, but I’d say the rest of the films follow suit to this one. In terms of editing and direction at least.
Yep I've been telling him the 3rd and beyond aren't cheesy and they get darker and more serious
One of the main things I love about the Harry Potter movies is the introductions with the Warner Bros Symbol. If you have noticed, each movie the scene which the symbol is on gets progressively darker with each movie. To the point that in the last movie - you can barely see the symbol. Another thing is the curses. The crucio ( I hope I spelled that correctly ) spell affects Neville because its the same spell that puts his parents into the mental institute. I think in the books, there is a whole chapter dedicated what happened to Neville's parents. The killing curse and why Moody seems to look at Harry weirdly is the fact that Harry is the only one to have survived it.
As a huge fan of the books, one of my favorite parts in the movie was how Dumbledore delivers his line at 9:05. In the book he asks Harry "calmly" if he put his name in the Goblet of Fire instead of screaming "HARRY DID YA PUT YA NAME IN DA GOBLET OF FIYAH??!!" Cracks me up every time.
In my opinion, Cedric's father (Amos) wailing over his sons death is the best bit of acting in the entire franchise. That scene always brings me to tears.
He wasn’t t being nosey, he was the caretaker of a house that was uninhabited haha. Just doing the job
Hufflepuff for life, man. They get a lot of disrespect, but they're really one of the best houses. Loyal, diligent, honest...like Cedric, just damn good people. (Yeah, I know, that's kinda like bragging, but we've gotta have something if we're not built to be the main protagonists or the main villains. lol)
Dumbledore: Now we know who was stealing from your store.
Snape looking at Harry *I Still hate you though *😂😂😂
OMGGG I can’t believe you’re giving us Harry Potter back to backkkkkk
The graveyard scene is one of my favorites. Voldemort back at full power after so long. He's both manic and elated which just adds to his madness with him "dueling" Harry. Teaching him about the etiquette of a duel then showing off his power by torturing him. Him screaming, " I want you to look at me when I kill you! I want to see the light leave your eyes!" I get chills every time.
The scene with Cedric's father kills me every time... I'm also a father of two boys so it hits extra hard.
Yes, this book was a marked change in the series. It was so much darker. And the graveyard scene is even more creepy and horrifying on the book.
Since you asked:
Moony - Remus Lupin the werewolf;
Wormtail - Peter Pettigrew the rat;
Padfoot - Sirius Black the dog;
Prongs - James Potter the stag
Together they wrote the Marauders' Map when they were at school.
Yeah they never go over the Marauder's tale in the movies, and i wish they did.
This one gets me everytime the way he makes sure to get Cedric's body and his father cries out "my boy". Boy that graveyard scene was intense. I feel bad because had Harry been selfish he would have never died. Quite frankly, I would have spit right in Voldemort face when he was trying to get my blood. And Gryffindor 🤬
yeah, this one is when it starts getting darker. hope that's not a spoiler. fun fact, the actor who played mad-eye moody, brendan gleeson, is the father of domhnall (pronounced "donnal", the m is silent) gleeson, who plays bill weasley, who if i remember correctly, is the eldest of the weasley brothers.
Cedric'S dad will never not make me cry. That scream...god, it's gut-wrenching
Hufflepuff! And when it comes to HP this was probably my favorite of the books. It was the first one that was released where people were lining up and trying to get them on release day. it was when 'Potter-mania' really began (at least around me). And the book was much, much more in depth than the movie, but this was still a great movie. I actually wasn't the biggest fan of the 3rd movie because they changed a ton of stuff from the book (that didn't need to be changed), but just wait for what's to come because there are some really great things to come.
The book is definitely better but to be honest this was a pretty good adaptation. There was no way they could do a complete adaptation of this book without splitting it into 2 parts.
@@alucard624 Or making the movie five friggin' hours long. I hate it when some book fans whine about how much was cut out. Good grief, do you not remember how friggin' MASSIVE the book was?
RIP Betty White.
Thanks for the reaction! What a nice new years eve surprise!
In the books, it was actually Dobby the house elf (remember him from movie 2?) who stole the gillyweed and gave it to Harry! After Harry freed Dobby Dumbledore hired him to work at Hogwarts. I agree with you-- I can't see Neville stealing from Snape, very out of character.
- Neville's parents were tortured by Crucio Bellatrix Lestrange (Sirius Black's cousin)
- In order to master the forbidden spells perfectly, you really have to want to subdue, torture, and kill someone, and it takes years!
- The scene where Dumbledore grabbed Harry interrogating him whether he really threw his name into the Cup infuriated book readers)))
- Harry's wand is ironically the twin of Voldemort's wand, namely both have the core of the phoenix feather, this is also the reason why they cannot harm each other...
@@seigeengine Forbidden spells take a lot of time, mostly years + it depends on the skill level of the wizard and what kind of pedigree he has along the biological magical line...Bellatrix, for example, spent many years to master Avada Kedavra.I am aware that they belong to the same Phoenix, which is what I was saying that they are twins of the same feather.
Every time you tear up about death It also makes me tear up. I’ve seen it too, it’s why I don’t sleep. Watching your videos always helps with that. You have a huge heart and a beautiful personality! You’re the best Mel!🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
The real Moody was still alive in chest because fake one fed him and make sure he survived so he can copy his behavior and had an access to his hairs for the potion)
9:05 Dumbledore asked calmly lol
This is my favourite personally, Cedric’s death is so heartbreaking to me, his dad crying 😢 love all the trials and the twist too
I'm going to gush on every video about how much pure genuine joy I'm getting from watching these with you. I can't thank you enough for the content you provide.
Ralph Fiennes, who plays Voldemort, also played Amon Goth in Schindler's List!
Yo Mell that sweater is fire 🔥
Love this one it’s my favorite! However all the movies have a special place in my heart
Really enjoying these reactions
Amos Diggory’s wailing 😭 gets me every time
I have a prediction for you. By the time you finish this series, you're going to be a die hard Potter fan. The best is yet to come. My personal favorite film is probably The Half-blood Prince. For me, it's the Empire Strikes Back of the Potter films. And yeah man, I'm with you in that scene of Cedric's father reacting to his loss. That actor did an amazing job with that wail of pain. That felt real. Hearing someone's heart break like that is devastating. I'm ready for your reaction to the next 4 films.
Mello, You always look like the real star and main character in your thumbnails. I love how much love and work you put into them. 👌
Fun Fact:In the books at the Yule ball Harry didn’t even realize it was Hermione with Viktor Krum until looking at her closer because she had her hair done up differently. Im in Ravenclaw by the way!
Seriously love your reactions, Mello!! Thank you for all the work you put into these!! It's so great to get to share the experience in a way and love your commentary! XD
As painful as Cedric's passing was it was beautiful seeing him inspire Harry to be courageous even in the face of death against the Dark Lord himself. He wasn't afraid.
A lot of the things you have questions about are in the books. As the movies go along, you're gonna be confused more and more often if you haven't read the books.
Taken from the book: "Harry, did you put your name in the Goblet of Fire?" Dumbledore asked calmlly. CALMLY.
The conspiracy of Barty Crouch Jr. was revealed to go further. He's the one who imperius's Krum to get Cedric out of the way and curses Fleur in the maze. However, despite the fact he's a major witness, Cornelius Fudge brings a dementor with him as security and it gives him the Dementors Kiss, sucking out his soul and making him useless as a witness.
Theres a side plot which was removed that I was upset about, as it sets up a great deal of the conflict in the next film, but the journalist Rita Skeeter begins publishing secrets and its revealed she's an animagus, taking the form of a beetle to spy. She reveals Hagrid is half giant and also that Harry is a parseltongue.
Ralph Fiennes is amazing as Voldemort. But the tone of the movie definitely didn't feel like it was setting up for the moment of his return. My friend even said he thought a totally different director filmed the graveyard sequence.
The book does mention that the shared cores make Voldemort unable to kill Harry(and the Phoenix that gave the wands cores was Fawkes, Dumbledores pet.)
It doesn't mention it in the later movies, but Karkaroff, the Headmaster of Durmstrang, runs off rather than return to Voldemort and is killed years later as punishment for snitching.
Your mom isn't seventeen yet HAHAHHAHAHA love you dude
Great reaction! I’m so excited to see you do the rest of them!
In the book, it was actually Dobby who got the gillyweed for Harry.
I forget if it was explored in the books or not, but I believe Igor Karkaroff (Durmstrang headmaster) tampered with the goblet of fire too. But it wasn't to help Barty Crouch Jr., It was to ensure that it was Viktor Krum's name that was chosen as the Durmstrang champion.
Although Sirius said "no one stops being a death eater" I do not believe that is true, and Karkaroff is indeed reformed from his old death eating ways.
Absolutely subscribed here after watching just one video. You are really following along and and enjoying the movie and making comments about the production and plot line which is so enjoyable to see!!
No matter what anyone's going through, we have these movies, merch, the books and this fan base to connect with. Together, we are a community.
This one is probably my favorite but I feel the third one is the best directed. HAPPY NEW YEAR! Hoping you have a fantastic 2022 Mello and everyone else!
Glad you liked this movie, and glad that I'm not alone. I've read the books, but still love this movie, despite so many people absolutely hating it.
This is my personal favorite of the movies (although they are all fantastic and the next few ones especially are an experience). I've been enjoying all your HP reactions, glad you decided to just do them all in a row , it really helps getting you immersed into the world.
Movies don't pull tears from me. But that scene, the discord between the celebratory music that belongs to an irrevocably lost world, and the horror that has replaced it, as well as the heart-rending wail of Cedric's father... that always get's me.
I had never clocked how close Avada Kedavra sounded to Abracadabra until you said it and now I’m wheezing. My husband keeps looking over at me while driving like tf is going on with you? 😂
Your reactions make my day! Keep up the hard work!✌️
Man I love Fred and George🤣
I remember when these were the movies to see every summer, similar to what Marvel is to people now. I love watching you get into the story! Enjoy the ride man!

Have a Happy New Year and i can't wait to see what you'll react to next.
Much respect
From one TH-camr to another.
Just subbed today because I found your HP reactions!!! Thank you for doing this
I like the way you analyse this franchise. Not many new hp watchers have noticed the Barty Crouch Jr tongue 😛 scene
Yeah, this is the movie that cut a lot of things out of the book that it made it feel incomplete to me when i first watched it. This film is kind of the reason why I kind of want you to watch some videos from Movieflame talking about the differences between book and film, as he did for all eight movies. I do say that you don't need to react to them, but can watch them after finishing all eight films as there are some spoiliers for the other films, and you should wait after viewing all the films, and if you have time.
This is actually the only movie I thought better than the book. That book had about 200+ pages of nothing but filler if you ask me. It was what the 3rd movie cut from the book that most bothered me. Still great books great movies and so far as movies based upon books go you gotta say HP is amongst the very best
Sure there are differences but at least the movie cut the filler parts, gave nevill a moment which the book even hinted to and it added so much terror to the trials
We may lose Ludo Bagman and learning that the challenges are safer than a play-pen in the books but in my opinion I think the whole fan base thinks it's a good change.
You cant argue that it's a bad adaptation when the only gripe people seem to have with it is that Dumbledore says the same words but with different intent (Did'ya put ya name in the Goblet of Fiyah!!!!!!!)
@@LN-Lifer I liked the sixth movie better than the sixth book at the time. I've changed my mind though!
@@flugsven I like all the movies better than I used to. Because it has been awhile since I read the books so I don't remember what isn't included so well

McGonagalls reaction to Ron's dress robes makes me laugh everytime. Maggie Smith is so fantastic!
very impressed u got the next movie out so soon
Wow this is unexpected. Happy New year to you and all of you guys! 🎉
Fellow Slytherin here! This is probably my favorite movie in the franchise, there’s just so much more world building in this one (and others going forward) and it’s really interesting to watch :)
Oh word?!? I literally just finished ya reaction to the last Harry Potter like an hour ago let’s go
Love your HP reactions, Mello. Keep it up!
Can’t wait for you to get to the half blood prince! The rest of this series gets so good, so emotional as well.
The lead singer of the band at the Yule Ball is Jarvis Cocker from the band Pulp, which was huge in the UK in the late 90s. They had hits with Common People and Disco 2000. And I’m a Hufflepuff.
Also, the fictional band playing at the ball is called The Weird Sisters which is a reference to the three witches in Macbeth.
I loved your reaction and I also loved that you showed yourself getting emotional.
The 4th movie/book is one of my favourites.
To answer your question as to which house I belong to, it's Ravenclaw.
I did the test twice, once when it first came out years ago and again maybe a year ago, so I'm quite positive I'm a true Ravenclaw 😄
20:20: It’s not a real band, but the band members are famous Brit musicians irl! The lead singer is Jarvis Cocker of Pulp and one of the guitarists in the back is Johnny Greenwood of Radiohead.
The next movie has the coolest scene in the franchise. You'll know it when you see it. I did a double take at the theater when I saw it.
Great Reaction, great Emotions! Go ahead continue ur adventure into this magic World ♡
Thank You for ur Videos ♡
I have to go back and watch this series again. Thanks and Happy New Year.
always look forward to a mellverse vid, gives me a chance to play the mellverse drinking game. every time he says "i see you" take a shot
