Yes, but that's not a mundane place, not even for a wizard point of view. Harry is visiting the ministery of his world. Anyone of his classmates would felt as amazed as him, if they visited that place.
Ya thats why I put mundane in quotation marks, because mundane is subjective.

Dumbledore always knew that Fudge was purposely trying to convict Harry as we learn later for him attempting to arrest Dumbledore to await trial for conspiracy and sedition. He knew he was deeply corrupt in other words.
Some fans theorize that Dumbledore is using a time turner for important events to warn his past self of events to come, he might have known that the hearing's time was changed from the future.
4:19 This is literally Umbridge’s first appearance, she doesn’t say a word until later in the scene, and I’m already triggered. I’ll say it again, Imelda Staunton earned her paycheck.
Whats funny is that she is arguably one of the best characters JK ever wrote. Just an absolute spiteful Karen straight down to her soul. You're not even sure whats she's after or if she really "believes" in the Voldemort dogma. Just a miserable person wanting power to make other people miserable. Plenty of those around these days.
1:17 I like how Harry is completely amazed about the government that runs the world where he really belongs (same amazed look around Diagon Alley), but he sees Fudge’s poster at 1:41 and gets reminded of what they’re not taking seriously.
@puterboy2 I am sure like in the book Harry and Dumbledore warned him so many times before the hearing but of course Fudge been Fudge been loyal to himself refused to listen to them or to reason and dismiss those warnings.
Turning his aunt into a balloon. Was supposedly accidental magic.The ministry of magic typically overlooks accidental magic by young wizards. Makes sense because if that wasn't the case. Azkaban would be filled with mostly children. And of course because the petronus charm is difficult to cast especially by a young wizard it was deemed unlikely to be accidental. Now because the petronus charm is only used to repel dementors and the dementors are under full control of the ministry and are kept at Azkaban as umbridge stated. They can then assume it wasn't in self defense also. The only other explanation is that Voldemort sent them which Fudge doesn't believe at all. So they had good reason to believe Harry produced a petronus charm illegally
@@Johan003 the thing is, even though it’s not in the movie but near the end of the fifth book, Umbridge admitted that she was the one who sent the dementors after Harry, while not having any knowledge that he already mastered the patronus charm.

I'm just reading this part in the book and I can't stress how this scene is exactly what I imagined while reading! Everything down to the description of the ministry of magic.
Most unrealistic thing about this sequence is people standing on both sides of the escalators in the tube at rush hour. Stand on the left and you will shouted at or pushed out of the way
There are so many plot holes here. Veritaserum could be made, and the questions asked. a Pensieve could be used, and his memory specifically watched. a Time Turner, to go back and watch the event (used on the day it happened, of course). and those are only a few methods.
@@travisbickle4360 Ain't a plot hole if there's intentional narrative choices. Here that being Fudge wanting a conviction anyhow, coz he feared Dumbledore was after his position as Minister of Magic and this was his way of getting at him in whatever little way he could. He didn't even know his own Secretary(?) was responsible for the attack, he was just happy in believing that Dumbledore had somehow slipped.
3:25 the look on Fudge’s face when Dumbledore arrived. He was absolutely terrified of the man and yet Fudge was meant to be the leader of the Ministry 😂
I just wish that place is in the Game of Hogwarts Legacy , but plus also having us there to disrupt that scene and to put our own twist on that. But it actually depends on what house we have selected to live in.
never noticed before the part about them making the appointment 3 hours early and not informing Dumbledore. Usually because everyone laughs at his full name.
So wizards can teleport, yet they use a mechanical entrance that is right by the public road, instead of a magical entrance. They even take the tube for some reason.
Hello, the fifth book says Umbridge sent those dementors after Harry Potter. She admitted it when Harry, his friends and Umbridge were in the Forbidden Forest. That detail was not on the fifth movie.
@@samuelmcmillan4671 idk you could assume that someone else could've done it for him but this wasn't meant to be a fair trial for harry since they just wanted to quickly silence him because fudge didn't want to believe that voldemort returned
I just thought why the ministry doesn't get scared of dumbledore turning evil. Like they provoking him from time to time. 😂 Dumbledore is indeed the greatest Wizard of all time even Voldemort himself scared of him which fudge nightmare 😂
"He's not back." I felt was a rather clumsy line. The author used it several times in the books to describe the 'Dark Lord's' return but it sounds like he'd just been down to the shops. Star Wars really got this right: "I sense a disturbance in the Force".

That's the joke he really is an expert as far as the Wizards are concerned. That just shows how little they know about it. It's alluded to in the book several times
That's why people are poor. They aren't good at what they do.
*Dumbledore joined the chat*
Fudge: the boy is guilty
Dumbledore: No
Everyone: Ok
*Dumbledore left the chat*
What a chad he is, indeed.
Why even have a representative government if Dumbledore's word is law?
when Dumbledore blamed Voldemort for the attack umbridge was probably like PHEWWW
Not the boys, the dementors😂
I'm just reading this part in the book and I can't stress how this scene is exactly what I imagined while reading! Everything down to the description of the ministry of magic.
Most unrealistic thing about this sequence is people standing on both sides of the escalators in the tube at rush hour. Stand on the left and you will shouted at or pushed out of the way
There are so many plot holes here.
Veritaserum could be made, and the questions asked.
a Pensieve could be used, and his memory specifically watched.
a Time Turner, to go back and watch the event (used on the day it happened, of course).
and those are only a few methods.
Only if they were interested in the truth. They seemed pretty bent on conviction.
@@jasoncarter2379memories can be forged. But the time Turner is a big plot hole.
@@travisbickle4360 Ain't a plot hole if there's intentional narrative choices. Here that being Fudge wanting a conviction anyhow, coz he feared Dumbledore was after his position as Minister of Magic and this was his way of getting at him in whatever little way he could. He didn't even know his own Secretary(?) was responsible for the attack, he was just happy in believing that Dumbledore had somehow slipped.
this scene really shows the dark and powerful side of Dumbledore .once the jury saw him they all changed their mind...
Powerful, yes. Dark, no.
One of best scenes in Order of Phoenix and here it feels rushed. Especially Dumbledore part.
The funny thing is any "mudblood" would be better at Arthur's job than "purebloods" would be lol
3:25 the look on Fudge’s face when Dumbledore arrived. He was absolutely terrified of the man and yet Fudge was meant to be the leader of the Ministry 😂
6:30 Fudge doesn't want to believe that Voldemort is back.
Thought this said Harry’s disability hearing and thought he was in a wheelchair in the thumbnail
It's funny how Arthur Weasley was so unconfortable in a train station but then it was Harry who felt wondered in the Ministry of magic.
Absolutely masterpiece ❤
A series that i wants to be never end...
particle accelerators… underground… ingenious, these muggles
Miss this world. This is the only franchise growing up that I need more of. But like sequels to the first 7
Dodgy dealings in the justice system. That seems familiar, somehow....
The only woman who defended Harry was later killed by Voldemort who personally went to do the deed. That’s how strong she was.
That court room is so beautiful
I just wish that place is in the Game of Hogwarts Legacy , but plus also having us there to disrupt that scene and to put our own twist on that.
But it actually depends on what house we have selected to live in.
I always related to Arthur Weasley when I first visited London, haha. Oyster cards? Genius!
Can't imagine anybody else playing Mr. Weasley, fantastic casting
"I may be not a big-city wizard, but this boy is innocent"
Mr Weasleyis a treasure.
never noticed before the part about them making the appointment 3 hours early and not informing Dumbledore. Usually because everyone laughs at his full name.
So wizards can teleport, yet they use a mechanical entrance that is right by the public road, instead of a magical entrance. They even take the tube for some reason.
Because Harry is underage. It’s the visitor entrance.
They didn’t want to take any chance of the Ministry persecuting Harry for more magic usage, even if he wouldn’t exactly be the one doing it
I like how you can see dumbledore exiting one of the elevators.
The "Wizenegmot" is such an underrated Easter egg lmao.
Saulazar Goodmandrake was almost ready to step in and defend Harry, he fights for you Diagon Alley!
I wonder what Lucius Malfoy was doing! And I'm betting they moved up the hearing in an attempt to stop Dumbledore from attending!
In the book, it was an attempt to make Harry to be late and judge him as quilty.
Hello, the fifth book says Umbridge sent those dementors after Harry Potter. She admitted it when Harry, his friends and Umbridge were in the Forbidden Forest. That detail was not on the fifth movie.
Damn good lawyer.
"Interdepartmental memos. We used to use owls. The mess was unbelievable."
Just Imagine if the Wizarding World embraced today’s Muggle Technology creating Technomagic
Harry is best him forver ❤❤
Albus Dumbledore is an amazing headmaster and lawyer i agree with loyal and bravery
watching this i'm thinking that this movie seems better than i remember
I love all the movies.
It was a different time. Literally shaped many childhoods and taught how friendships work.
In the book, it was reveal that Dolores Umbridge had sent the Dementors to eliminate Harry.
Can't believe he's the Head of Misuse of Muggle Artifact Office. Hahahahaha
In a world where they can literally pull out and view memories, wouldnt trials be pretty straight forward?
memories can be modified, it's shown in the half blood prince (the movie after this) (or at the very least it's mentioned in the book)
@Outcastsage yeah but it's a case if underage magic, surely Harry doesn't know how to do that
@@samuelmcmillan4671 idk you could assume that someone else could've done it for him but this wasn't meant to be a fair trial for harry since they just wanted to quickly silence him because fudge didn't want to believe that voldemort returned
Arthur Weasley scene 😂
I just thought why the ministry doesn't get scared of dumbledore turning evil. Like they provoking him from time to time. 😂
Dumbledore is indeed the greatest Wizard of all time even Voldemort himself scared of him which fudge nightmare 😂
One of my favourite scenes in HP ❤
Now I know what Michael meant the conference room
"He's not back." I felt was a rather clumsy line. The author used it several times in the books to describe the 'Dark Lord's' return but it sounds like he'd just been down to the shops. Star Wars really got this right: "I sense a disturbance in the Force".
Legal system like during the dark ages
