How awful was Bellatrix’s descent into madness ?

- Bellatrix Lestrange's descent into madness can be attributed to a combination of her inherent unpleasant and bigoted nature, her deep involvement in the Dark Arts, and her fanatical allegiance to Voldemort. The 14 years she spent in Azkaban further exacerbated her mental state. It's worth noting that she never received the Dementor's Kiss, a fate that might have left her as a "vegetable".
Azkaban : Most go mad within weeks - Bellatrix was there for 14 years ...
Aw man she was bat 💩 nuts 😂 first time we see her she is licking her dark mark tattoo lol
but she wasn't mad no...
I think that Alice did know that Neville was her son. I think that is why she tried giving him “gifts” like the bubblegum wrapper. She knew that he was precious to her.
Absolutely and he kept every wrapper he knew what his mom was doing
I wish we got more Bellatrix scenes in the movies.
We got more in the movies than we did in the books, however she was meant to be in Goblet of Fire in a memory scene and was cut out.
@@jaynerebecca8604 false. We did not see her duel with Kingsley neither with sirius or tonks both times. We did not see her confront Harry nor blocking dumbledore's spells nor talking with voldy bout pure blood things
@@jihanessa4132 all the same scene. In the films we got two whole extra scenes with her; the fire at the burrow (which irks me!) and the battle of the astronomy tower. I would have loved to see her duel Harry at the ministry.
@@jaynerebecca8604 She had a presence in the ministry in HP movie 5 but her duels were cut out. The same goes for book 7 when she dueled ron and tonks in the battle of 7 potters. The same goes for her murder of fred I guess.
@@jihanessa4132 This is in reference to the books: she didn’t murder Fred (it’s suggested it could be Rookwood) and we never saw the duel between her, Tonks and Ron. It was mentioned, but never seen, as Tonks mentioned that she and Ron “definitely injured Rodolphus” in Ch5 of Deathly Hallows.
However I do agree that the lack of her duels in the ministry scene robs her of a lot of her character. We see very early on that she is a more than capable duellist, and arrogant with it too given the way she taunted Harry. That whole section of the film was a let down because those two chapters (35 and 36 of Order) are just wonderfully done in the book and have so much foreshadowing. Even the duel between Voldemort and Dumbledore was a let down really, considering Voldemort and Dumbledore were talking throughout the whole duel. Let’s hope the show gets that’s right - even down to the centaur, headless wizard and the witch pinning Bellatrix down.
Mrs. Weasley was fed up and enraged by the death of her son. She was always a good mage but when she was pushed to that point her full potential was released. They say winning a battle is 1 step shy of losing. She threw all caution to the wind and went all out.
I have seen all the usual videos from Harry Potter Theory, SCB etc. but this popped up in the recommendations and was by far one of the most engrossing I have ever seen. Got actual goosebumps when you described the rationale of Neville vs. Molly being the one to take Bellatrix’s life. New subscriber!
How the hell does this channel have so few subscribers? It deserves exponentially more, given how well made this video was! You've got a new sub from me!
Idk why most fans think of Bellatrix as of a mad witch, if we don’t take Helena’s performance. In the books, she was nothing like that. She was arrogant, sadistic, a bit impatient, but crazy? Where? When?
Also, I think she didn’t have kids because she prioritized the war or simply rejected her husband. As a powerful witch and Voldemort’s best lieutenant, she could have the power to be the boss in their family. Plus, she was in love with Voldemort, so why should she sleep with Rodolphus?
But I’d like to thank you for mentioning Voldemort’s feelings about her death and closing eyes on her failures. She was clearly special to him and that makes both Bellatrix and Voldemort more complex characters than just ‘evil wizards’.
we need to have a tv series about bellatrix and her family
Yess please
Yess
I've been missing Harry Potter these days. Thank you for this!
As the Heir of Slytherin his blood status was less important... Slytherin house is very dedicated to their founder based on his beliefs of blood supremecy. Being the last proved heir (see chamber of secrets...) the sins of the mother do not shadow the standing of the son. Own random head canon anyway. Excellent video!
That always seemed like a plot hole to me because why would the sorting hat ever put a half blood into slitherine house?
@@missourimongoose8858 blood status is super confusing anyway I think it still counts as half blood some three generations after it happens. For instance Harry is technically a halfblood despite both parents being magical because his mom was muggleborn, I'm pretty sure his kids count as halfbloods too it wouldn't be til his great grandkids and only if the kids and grandkids marry actual pure bloods themselves.... otherwise it just muddies the water even more....
@@missourimongoose8858 separately, why would he turn away his own heir even if his blood isn't pristine? (The last traceable heir...)
Bellatrix Lestrange could do *ANYTHING* *SHE* *WANTED* to me
Lengardium erectis!!!
Of course Bellatrix couldn't get any information out of the Longbottoms - they wouldn't know a thing about it. As if they were there watching the whole thing that night.
Bellatrix and Voldemort most probably had a coitus, if not, then there is unexplained part of the book, that's not making sense. "my lord! my lord!" But the Cursed Child deserves a revision, rewriting or erasure, replacement... Why wouldn't Voldemort use or rather abuse such desires and needs like Bellatrix has? He was always briliant and charming manipulator. For Voldemort to have a child could have much darker reasons, than for ordinary abuser.
I think Molly used "reducto". It makes sense to me because if she used avada kedavra from what we know it basically just sucks the life from them and there is a flash of (green) light. Bellatrix basically shattered. Not only is that more a characteristic of reducto, but it also makes sense due to the fact that her only daughter uses the same spell to great effect which is pointed out a few times and rule of thumb is nothing is done accidently in film/books soo.... what reason other than to show Ginny is kind BA at magic and "scary" would there be to use THAT spell and then have Molly use some seemingly random spell that has the same effects...? That's just my thoughts on it though lol
That's actually an interesting take, maybe it is what she used
Also, Mollys disposition suggests that even in such an anger, she would never use an unforgivable (illegal) curse..but reducto is not one and allows the same effect of "never touching her kids again"... also, she would be used to using spells in unique ways I think just from having as many children as she does. I agree with practically everything about bellatrix though. Great video!
@TheDailyProphetOnline
Yes. In the movies it uses reducto most likely. However the scene in the books goes justs as Sirius’ death.
In her arrogance, Bellatrix mocks Molly, downing he guard. A spell hits her and she realizes she has lost. She dies. Voldemort screams. Her body does not explode.
@ungloriusbastards4955 😅 that's ok though I'm gonna stick to my theory cause I think it works. I mean toppled isn't quite explode but I still like it lol
@@kjames1013 I meant the movie vs the book. In the book dies. In the movie her body is disintegrated.
Good luck with the channel, you have my sub.
All you need to do is look at the Hapsburg family of Spain for a look at imbedding and the results.
A- freaking-men! to not considering cursed child canon. LOL I think of it as bad fanfic that breaks canon/lore that JK just signed her name to. The stage production, special effects, and acting are great but the story..........blah
The only thing I'd have done differently is I'd have had Harry use Avada Kedavra on Voldemort. That would have been some poetic justice
I so much love this character. She is much better in the book. It is amazing how powerful she is.
Yess
I wish her powers were shown in the movies
@@olenaolena9073 fr, not only her, most characters' true skills like sirius were not showcased
Molly used the same spell on Bellatrix that she used to cook turkey.
She makes short work SO WELL.
You said that Bellatrix 'endured' Voldemort's kisses but, despite what our mothers told us, kissing is not necessary in the conception of a child. I picture Voldy staring at the wall or headboard during the procreation process rather than trying to inject any romance into the act. he would have wanted a child to continue his bloodline and dispensed with anything but the old wham, bam thank you ma'am. Did your mother tell you as a young teen that if you kissed a boy you would have a baby? Well, some of ours did.
This channel is going to be great. Pulling up my chair. Looking forward to more long form HP content! 🔥
very good video. However I disagree on the part of mental unstability attributed to inbreeding.
None of the other blacks of her generation (regulus, sirius, andromeda, narcisa) display such madness.
Apparently only her mother and Phineas Niggellus (very slightly)
So we have a decent amount of inbreeding on my mother's side due to the old tradition of marrying cousins to keep property in the family, and we also have mental illness.
Almost everyone suffers from something, but most are easy to mask. Anxiety, depression, narcissistic personality disorder, addiction, even my own bipolar disorder. It's drilled into us to not let the world see your crazy.
That being said, every other generation one person in our family ended up institutionalized, usually for schizophrenia. My 5x great grandpa, my 3x great grandpa (he actually shot someone because he thought they were talking bad about him. He claimed the iron bars of the prison were trying to attack him when arrested. Being one of the richest and most powerful people in his area, he was sent to an asylum instead of facing trial). My great grandma was in an institute until they shut them down. My uncle was sent to a prison for the criminally insane for terrorism after calling the police and saying he was going to attack a post office. He wasn't, but the voices were trying to get him to, which is why he called the police. We've got strict terrorism laws in my state, and he technically threatened a federal building.
Actually my families mental health is what lead me to study psychology. Working on my masters now, then hopefully going into my doctorate.
You will got your Masters for certain. ❤️ For your Doctorate, I’ve found that a research grant and other practical issues are of supreme importance: you must be healthy, well fed, and have positive people around you to do the research and writing work. I have an intuitive feeling you will succeed 🙏. Yours is work that matters: no doubt about that.
@miahconnell23 thank you 😊 I told my best friends that they just need to support me for the next 6 years until I get my doctorate and then I'll take care of them haha (and by support I mean understand that I'm going to be a recluse who needs to put my classes first). They agreed. Making that deal with my family won't work, they won't help me, but they won't hinder me either. They didn't even know I went back to school, let alone that I working on my masters now, and I live in the same house as them haha.
Thank you for believing in a stranger ❤️
So Bellatrix was the Anti-hermione
Well you say that Molly probably used the killing curse, but the book also says "both women were fighting to kill".
Whats the name of the beautiful background music, the one with the piano? ❤❤
Enjoyed this video🔥
mmm Bellatrix, what a glorious girl
ok i just wanna point this out. many purebloods wanted bloodpurity....but no one is thinking of having as many kids as possible give a more options of marriege. with how many true purebloods are left they dont think of having more kids. if they want their idiolagy to work they would have to make the population go up. having two kids is the lowest. this is why wizards marry muggles and muggleborns. sometimes i wanna sit them down and talk about they can make this unrealiztic idolagy work. not to mention muggles have the real answers to how genetics works...i mean we all know how squibs descendants eventualy get magic when their magic gen is turned on. i get why they hide from muggles but now a days it could be more useful to explain biolagy to wizards
Isn't there like 28 pureblood families left
@@devoof eh... this sacret 28 woulnt exactly be accurate. we see in harry's time some of the families married non purebloods over the years. not to mention malfoys have muggle ancestry that they dont talk about. even the blacks cant claim full purity since andreameda married ted tonks (muggleborn).
they do talk about fixing the lines (so a future generations becoming purebloods) but it would mean everyone has to marry a halfblood untill everyone is pureblood.
its all to say no one is truthly pure
There must be a few wizard farmers that know there are limits to line breeding
@@masterpythoni would say malfoys have avoided inbreeeding at all cause they saw before how it effected the royal families (but they would not say that today)
The ideology itself is so inherently stupid, you can't make it work.
No the play doesn't adress her absence in the 6. book because delfiny was born more than 9 months later it just creates the plothole that during the malfoy manor seen she whould have been in her 3. trimester and she doesn't look or act pregnant.
Weasly and Pruitt where pure bloods too
Great video!
Seems like he had some affection for her. Or at least great respect. Neville would have been a better chosen one than Harry . He lived with what was done to his parants in Voldermort's name .
I don't think she uses the killing curse on Bellatrix. That would defeat the purpose of the character. I think she used some kind of expansion , explosion or desintegrating spell and that in conjuction with the spell Bellatrix already was under created that effect. We know that the 3 forbidden curses don't make bodies disappear. There's plenty of deadly spells in HP that aren't deadly curses. The distintion is if a spell can be countered or not. Deadly curses can't be countered. Other spells can. The fact that she has to immobilize Bealltrix points to the fact that she didn't use a deadly curse, she had to take Bellatrix'ss ability to counter her spell first, something she wouldn't need to do if she was going to use a deadly curse.
I don't get why fans can claim what is authentic story and not if the original author wrote the material in question. JK ROWLING decides what's cannon and what's not.
based off my little cousin being born when my aunt was 41 if we say 45-50 there is still a slight and very slight chance she could still get pregnant
The boy who lived…⚡️🤓
I dint think voldys snake woukd work
Why? He’s just a human
well voldermort was slitherins heir too, i woud expect that would cancel any half blood prejudice
Was it public though ? I would understand if he didn't reveal that information because it could hint that he opened the chamber of secrets.
Indeed. @@TheDailyProphetOnline
I was going to comment on how ai just found harry potter but I doubt that an ai thinks this deep about infertility.
0:00 🕛-19:04!❤😂😊😊
Its almost like race mixing is good actually and "pure" is merely a nice way of saying inbreeding which nature actively discourages with infertility.
Given what is now known as common knowledge I still don't understand the rationale of people that want to "keep the blood pure."
It doesn’t matter weather you consider the cursed child cannon or not because JK Rowling herself has confirmed it is cannon
