![Who Wrote a Short Story That Seriously Disturbed a Teacher? | Dirty Laundry x Smosh [Full Episode]](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/bvHAy_rKoEI/mqdefault.jpg)
They don't explain this in the film but its an important detail - the map was created by Lupin, Sirius, Pettigrew (Scabbers) and James (Harry's dad). The title on the map says "Messrs. Moony, Wormtail, Padfoot, and Prongs present to you the Marauder's Map." Moony is Lupin (werewolf), Wormtail is Pettigrew (rat), Padfoot is Sirius (dog), and Prongs is James (stag). Their friend group called themselves the Marauders, and they terrorized the school with pranks. The three friends learned how to transform into animals so that they could help Lupin on the nights he transformed.
One of the biggest flaws in the films is that they do not provide enough background information about the Marauders (James, Sirius, Lupin, and Pettigrew).
It also isn’t clear in the film why Lupin and Snape came to the Shrieking Shack. Lupin believed Sirius was a killer, but Harry saying he saw Pettigrew shook that belief. When Sirius took Ron, Lupin was looking at the map and saw Pettigrew’s name. He realized that Pettigrew was alive and figured out that he framed Sirius. When he rushed out of his office, he left the map open. Snape came to the office to give Lupin a potion to control his change into a werewolf, saw the map, and followed Lupin to the shack.
As for Pettigrew framing Sirius, what happened was that James and Lily learned Voldemort was after them. They went into hiding using a charm that allowed only one person to know where they were. If you weren’t that person or were told by that person, it would be impossible to find them. They made Sirius their secret-keeper, but he thought it would be too obvious to Voldemort so he suggested they change the secret-keeper to Pettigrew, who nobody would think likely to be entrusted with something so important. Pettigrew then told Voldemort where the Potters were. Nobody else knew of the change, so they all assumed Sirius betrayed the Potters. Pettigrew completed the frame by confronting Sirius in a street, blowing it up and killing a bunch of Mughles, cutting off his own finger as evidence he “died,” and changing into a rat to escape. Because he disappeared, everyone assumed Sirius commuted the murders.
I have always been curious how helpful a rat was in that endeavor. lol
@@sophiedash4026 he was able to push the knot on the tree so pad foot and prongs could get down the hole at the base of the tree
@@jwsel well told! Those details seem so crucial to the story but apparently, others didn’t think so. It’s a pity they only had 2.5 hours to squeeze in a 700 page book. Character development inevitably suffers.
@@mariejustme the other thing conveniently left out is that werewolves are only a danger to humans not animals so basically when they all changed lupin no longer would go after them... and they would have adventures and things... also the one thing left out of the other thing is sirius was laughing like a maniac after pettigrew blew up the street....people thought it was because he blew up everyone...my thought process is that he found out the potters were murdered and that he was the one that told them to use the person who betrayed them.... that in conjunction with peter escaping kinda unhinged him a bit
Can we take a moment to appreciate Alan Rickman dressing in Neville's gran's clothes to shoot that scene? I love it!
Snape protecting the kids from a transformed Lupin was telling to one person whose comments I saw a while ago.
Always 😉
After my daughter watched this movie for the first time I said just think Alan Rickman had to actually walk around the set wearing that dress when they were filming. Now every time we see that scene in the movie, we have a good laugh lol
We should also take a moment to honor Richard Harris RIP Dumbledore.
@@archangelgabriel5316 For everyone who liked Richard Harris, watch his movie A Man Called Horse. The sequel is not as good.
Don’t be discouraged about being in Slytherin. Harry could have been in Slytherin just as easily. They are ambitious and very self assured. Great wizards have come from that house. It’s just that most of the “bad” wizards come from that house because their ambitions tend to get in the way. Hufflepuff is a great house, too. They are more compassionate and lead with their hearts. You both are in the right houses I think. I absolutely love watching you guys discover these amazing movies! Stay blessed!
Yep. In the first movie, Hagrid says, "There's not a witch or wizard who went bad who wasn't in Slytherin," but that's obviously not true (Peter Pettigrew, for example, was in Gryffindor). Not only that, but even if most wizards who go bad come from Slytherin, that doesn't mean that most Slytherins go bad. We meet good Slytherins in the series...
A lot of bad characters have come from other houses as well. Lockheart was a Ravenclaw if I remembered.
Merlin and Slughorn! House Slytherin :)
@@Forbiddenangel989 woah spoilers came different 😂
The only reason Harry was even considered for Slytherin is cause he had a part of Voldemort soul attached to him, so the sorting hat felt that. If it wasn't for that, there's no question he would've been put in Griffindor.
A little tip: Dumbledore didnt go back in time, he simply had the foresight to know what would most likely happen. Also, Sirius isnt a darker werewolf, he's an animagus meaning he has control over his actions and a choice when to turn. Whereas Lupin the werewolf cant choose when or control his actions. Love the reaction!
Also: Sirius Black's animagus form is a Scottish Deerhound, a _huge_ dog that could easily be confused with a really ugly wolf. (sorry, but.... blech)
For me, this film is where the story truly begins. So much happens, so many things are revealed, questions are answered. It just gets better and better!
Nah. An important item was in the previous film as is the means to destroy the processing important items.
@@joshuadrew5223 I think he means this is where the story gets a bit more "Sirius" and "Black"... ;) Harry can finally stand up for himself and leave home in the spooky night. They can play Quidditch in the dank weather. They can have all these scary Dementors, a Werewolf, a scary black dog, and a rat that's actually a fat guy. They can use the time-turner to save an innocent animal from a beheading they thought they saw and fill in the shoes to why certain other things happened. Overall it just picked up a lot more and it can only keep getting more interesting as they get older.
@@DlcEnergy it's a very random question to a very random commenter but I'm really curious about whether buckbeat was really murdered before they went back in time, every other events matched up to me except for that one or they just assumed it was executed?
@@sweety3303 This is the interesting thing about this particular time-turning event. It relied on a few convenient things for their past selves to still think Buckbeak died.
1. The pumpkins being there.
2. Them deciding to chop one.
3. Them unable to see Buckbeak.
If they prevented their past selves thinking Buckbeak died, their past selves wouldn't use their time-turner. But they must. When they go back they remember all the things their future selves did. So it's not just a one and done thing set in stone. Their new past selves must go back, and may do it slightly differently until it gets consistent.
Also there's a paradox with him saving himself from all the Dementors. How could he have first gone back to save himself?
And for the question of if Buckbeak died before they went back in time. If we're just talking about before WE saw them go back in time, then we never saw Buckbeak die. But if we're talking before they ever went back in time, then he would've died, causing them to initially go back, and throw the rock to let them know also.
It truly begins with the Philosopher's stone
Let’s take a moment to appreciate that Snape’s very first move seeing the werewolf is the guard the children behind him with his body.
Snape had SUCH a complicated moral code. You're sure he's evil, then he risks his life to protect the kids, then he's all mean and villainous again. Only an actor as talented as Alan Rickman could do him justice.
@@torontomame I dont think any other person alive could have pulled off Snape so perfectly. It's as if the man was born for the role.
@@DaleHammersIII JK said she wrote the part initially with Alan in mind, even before it was published, she is a massive fan of him. So when the films were announced, she said nobody else could do the role. Love that.
Movie nonsense. Snape was unconscious in the book
@@michaelsuder486 yeah but it fits the character of book Snape perfectly
Prisoner of Azkaban is a big milestone in the Harry Potter saga : everything we learned in this movie, from the Dementors to Pettigrew, Sirius Black, etc. will play a part in future movies, in the whole saga. It's also the moment when the HP movies ceased to be fun little movies for kids and start becoming darker...
Totally. I was going to tell them the same thing. The movies do get darker and more serious but also more in-depth and interesting.
And the one that had Alfonso Cuarón as director, and he brings those qualities out.
Not entirely true that this is when everything started but i will agree on everything else
@@bryanhickernell7189 According to the Harry Potter reunion, this movie is when they take a first big step towards a darker tone in the series.
@@FranciscoHOS It's hard to believe those cute kids are in their 30's now. Where does the time go? 🙃
I love that despite hating literally everyone and being knocked unconscious by Harry about half an hour previously, Snape still tries to protect the three of them from the Werewolf. He’s a douche but still a teacher, still needs to keep the students safe
FACTS. Personal feelings aside,he chose to do the right thing.
@@RonLarhz He really wanted to see Sirius killed by the dementors, though.
In the book, it's Sirius who put himself in front of the trio when werewolf Lupin come to them. Snape was unconscious the whole time. Sirius throw himself to Lupin to save both the trios and Lupin, and when everything was over Snape make sure that Harry Hermione and Ron look like a delusional kids so that the ministry won't trust them when they told about Sirius being innocent or Wormtail being the traitor or alive. Snape was so excited to see Sirius soul being sucked by Dementors. When his plan failed and Sirius escaped, he told Slytherin about Lupin being werewolf and ruined his life even more.
Movies don't really show Snape's ugly side much, I think it's because it was Alan Rickman, movies make Snape look like a misunderstood hero
borderline spoilery bro
Snape only did that in the movies
Emma Thompson’s portrayal of Professor Trelawney is 💯% how she is in the books. Nailed it!!
Im not english native and ive only realized this year its Emma 😂
How heartwarming is to realize that Harry recongnices his father in himself... Kind of when you see an old picture of one of your parents and think "he looks like me".
As Lupin predicted.
It was because of the patronus creature that was from his father. Harry also had the same patronus creature and assumed it could be only his father. At one point in the book its mentioned and he gets to know what his father patronus creature was but it did not make into the movie.
Or she "looks like me" for all the daughters out there
I'm sure you're gonna see this comment multiple times; but I just wanna clarify some stuff:
J.K Rowling said Professor Lupin was written to be her own imagination of what a professor she wanted to have, that's why his classes are so fun.
Also, it wasn't made clear in the movie, but the names on the map (Moony, Wormtail, Padfoot and Prongs) are the nicknames of Remus Lupin, Peter Pettigrew, Sirius Black and Harry's father James Potter. They Peter, Sirius and James all turned themselves into an Animagus to support their friend Lupin when he turned into a werewolf. They were all a group of friends when they were in school, much like Harry, Ron and Hermione are.
This is why Harry had thought he saw his dad. Because his dad in books is revealed to be not only an Animagus Stag but also his pratronus reflects that part of himself. As Harry also has a Stag type Pratronus
This is exactly why it is a good idea to read the books before watching the movies.
@@briandeeley1599 Just as long as people don't give accidental spoilers. It's very hard not to given how much of something is tied to something else.
@@briandeeley1599 I like to do the reverse. Watch the movie first, then read the book to see what the movie left out. When I read the book first, the movie is usually a disappointment.
@@l00d3r That's the take on how most people are. It's like Eragon people who say "Oh the movie wasn't too bad." I know haven't read the books....at all...poor souls have no clue." Then plead with them to read the books.
It's the shortest film in the entire series but it's my favorite. Harry finally gets a positive male role model, who actually knew his parents. Cuaron's vision for the film was within Rowling's universe, but still added a few personal, cultural references. The candy skulls, the central plaza/fountain as a gathering place, and if you listen carefully to Dumbledore, he's humming a tune as he leaves them in the hospital wing. It's a traditional children's song from Mexico. Comparable to singing "Old McDonald had a Farm."
Lupin & Sirius are both positive role models who knew Harry's parents.
@@jp3813 Harry conversed with Lupin for longer at that point though.
isn't the shortest the 5th one
@@highdefinition450 POA: 2:19, OOTP, 2:18, but it sure didn't feel like it.
36:08 Love Rickman's performance here. Even though Snape is furious at Harry for attacking him, his first instinct in danger was to protect them.
It really shows his true character there. He isn’t fond of Harry and his friends lol, but he would never want them to be harmed. Those who know know.
41:52 Dumbledore didn't travel back in time, he just already knew that Harry & Hermione did. The thing you have to keep in mind when it comes to time travel stories is that they establish their own rules. Most stories either use one timeline only or multiple timelines. This movie/book uses the former, hence the future has already happened (ex: Harry saving his past self from the Dementors). On the other hand, Marty McFly created an alternate timeline in Back to the Future (you still haven't finished the trilogy) in which his family is happier & more successful in 1985 due to the changes he made in 1955.
Yup! And, while he couldn't be certain, Dumbledore pretty much plans nearly every major event in the entire current universe (Fantastic Beasts as well). He's beyond genius!
@@chaddon7685 You know how some chess players think 20 moves ahead? With Dumbledore it's more like 20 games ahead....
Who's to say the Dumbledore isn't time traveling? It never says he is, but it also never say he isn't.
@@ThePriorityAlpha J.K. Rowling. Dumbledore's actions are written, not simulated. It's the storyteller's responsibility to convey even the ambiguities to the audience. Otherwise, might as well assume that Dumbledore is Harry Potter's descendant.
@@bentels5340 He should've prevented Voldemort's rise then.
I had a lot of trouble coming to terms with my Slytherin placement as a kid, but as an adult I've come to appreciate it. We're not all evil but we are cunning and ambitious. We tend to be straight forward and have strong minds. We rock!
LOL the most ambitious would do anything to get to their goal.
Hermoine isn't even half muggle, she's muggle born meaning both parents are muggle. That just adds to how amazing she is!
Hermione herself isnt even partially muggle though, her parents are, but shes a full blown witch. Muggle Born doesnt mean muggle herself. I'm guessing thats what you were trying to say though?
@@DaleHammersIII She's a mud-blood.
So her parents are regular people and not squibs? I never understood certain things completely
Hermione's parents are both muggles but probably one of her distant ancestor was squib. Squibs may not have any magical abilities but they still carry the magical blood in them even though it's dormant one. It may active generations later when the wizarding knowledge among the family is long forgotten because they live in muggle world. For example, a squib married a muggle then they have muggle children who married muggles, then continue until a few generations later a wizard may be born from two muggles. ~cmiiw
@@Gurra88 basically, some people from Muggle families will be born with magical potential, squibs are people from magical families who are born with no magical potential and are often ostracized by their family or community
I can't express how much it means to me being able to watch these movies with you guys. I have severe social anxiety disorder and this is the closest I get to going out to the movies with friends. Thank you.
May you find peace. 🕊
Chronic depression, OCD and social anxiety, here. I take my meds and can function if I have to but I'd rather just be left alone with my computer. These kids are a more-than-welcome distraction from the news of the day and I get the biggest kick watching them watch great movies and listen to great songs. Amber and Jay are amazing, and I love that they share this part of their lives. Beautiful souls...
I hear you. I have just had to stay home for nearly 3 years to avoid COVID (underlying med condition). I miss going to the movies and seeing my friends. I do get out, but not enough. Jacob and Amber have made a HUGE difference in my life over the past year and I love them for it. I refer to them as my friends and I SO look forward to Mondays and Fridays! I am a HUGE HP fan and this ride has been the BEST! LOTR was wonderful too. Take care of you - glad you're here! 😊
My 23 year old daughter also suffers with this. Best of luck to you😍
I am fortunate in that I don't. You have my understanding, as much as a non-sufferer can give. I wish you well and hope that you can overcome it enough to have a happy and fulfilled life.
I don't know if anybody has mentioned this already but the author suffered from depression so she wrote the dementors as a physical representation of depression. There were times she said she felt completely empty inside, that is why dementors take your soul leaving you an empty husk of your formal self.
I’d submit that this is the best of all the movies. Rowling really wrote timetravel perfectly. Nothing actually changes, but rather is explained from a new perspective. Absolutely flawless storytelling.
I also particularly love when harry realizes that Sirius was dying, along with any hope harry had of a better life. The Patronus he casts is fueled by his hope of having a father figure and his desire to save the best friend of his parents. Not gonna lie, that part makes me cry a bit
It is also a good causal time loop. Harry realizes he can cast the Patronus because he sees it isn't his dad, but himself. So he cast it because he realized he could
This and HBP are my favorites. The ONLY thing that bothers me about this movie after reading the books was that they only needed a line from Lupin explaining who the creators of the Marauders’ Map and why they called themselves by those nicknames. It would’ve given more depth and meaning to Harry’s patronus. I know I was quite confused about it when I left the theatre. Someone had to explain it to me. Otherwise, this movie was masterfully done.
@@melindamercier6811 OMG yes, I´ve had this problem with the third movie since it came out. I LOVE the third book, and the main reason is the story of the Marauders. And then the movie barely mentions them! And as you said, it is confusing. I understand they couldn´t do the whole monologue that Lupin does, but just a couple of extra lines. Like, how the hell did he know it was a map? In the movie, they don´t explain it. To this day, every time I watch POA I need to rant about it. And I just realized this comment was actually a rant, sorry about that. 😅
Just like me, many people consider Harry & the prisoner of Azkaban their favourite.
Btw, "Happiness can be found, even in the darkest of times, if one only remembers to turn on the light." is my favourite line & helped me to be positive when things weren't easy in real life.
Azkaban is my favorite movie of the whole series! It is so beautifully done and artistically shot. I SO wish that Alfonso Cuarón could have stayed on and directed more of the movies. I love what he did with this one. The whole feel of the movie is so different. And the way all the pieces fit together when they go back with the time turner is so cool! So many delicious twists in this one. Buckle up!! The series just gets darker, more intense, and more adult & emotional as you go!
Absolutely agree! He did such a masterful job.
The Shrinking shack was considered haunted because of lupin when he would turn. Also the whomping willow was planted to protect the entrance as well as keep people away from the shack while lupin was there.
This was a great reaction. When you said I’m speechless. That’s how I felt watching this movie as well. Love it. Can’t wait to watch the next one with you both.
That’s why it’s called the “shrieking shack”, as Lupin’s werewolf shrieks could be heard from far away.
Nah dumb reaction they didn't understand anything
I don't think the people who only watch the movie understand just how much they miss out on in explanation, context and other events that happen by not reading these books. I was guilty of that untill last year when I read them all in 2 weeks. The difference is massive in some cases.
“That tree is a jerk.” I almost got coffee out my nose. 😂 You guys are definitely one of my faves and total couples goals! I started out with your music reactions and I’m just loving these reactions as well. From one teacher to another, please please please read the books when you finish the movies! There is so much more detail involved and you gain a whole new understanding to Harry’s world. While I feel they did a phenomenal job translating the books to film, there are entire characters they left out due to movie time constraints. You’d really enjoy them and I’d love a reaction with discussion of them afterwards. Much love to you both!
Well said, read the books folks, read them chapter by chapter to your kids as bedtime stories. They will love it!
Yes, the books are fantastic!
I actually came in to make that very suggestion. Not only were characters left out, but details were changed. I agree that the movies were extremely well done, but the books are so much better.
Some characters were left out, but (imho) the worst is some characters are completely different in the movies vs the books. (Ginny anyone..)
One of my favourite moments from the HP books:
"But Black was staring down at Harry.
'How can I ever thank -'
'GO!' Harry and Hermione shouted together.
Black wheeled Buckbeak around, facing the open sky.
'We'll see each other again,' he said. ''You are - truly your father's son, Harry...'
He squeezed Buckbeak's sides with his heels. Harry and Hermione jumped back as the enormous wings rose once more...the Hippogriff took off into the air...he and his rider became smaller and smaller as Harry gazed after them...the a cloud drifted across the moon...they were gone.'
Wish they did the Marauders' story in the film.
I LOVE time-travel movies. They’re so hard to do well, but when they work, they’re incredible. They nail it in this movie. They basically show you the third act twice, and it’s both the same and completely different each time. So well done.
Also, “That tree is a jerk” is priceless
Right!? This and Predestination are my favorite time-travel movies, just so well-done.
Try reading a book called The Tides Of Time, by James Cavill then. Very time-travelly.
I'm getting so much joy being apart of your journey, these movies each just meant so much to my childhood, everytime the commercial came out for the next movie it's all me & my friends talked about until we saw the movie then that would be all we'd talk about & how this part was different than in the book or different to how we imagined it. And it's just priceless to see people see the scene in the Shack for the 1st time, twist on twist on TWIST and once it unfolds there's no folding it back up. (also the map & time turner are 2 of my favorite items of the series like the cloak).
It took my rewatch with you guys to catch Hagrid's "There's no small glasses in this house" 🤣 I think that's a motto I'm gonna need for every home that's mine 😄
I want to express what a joy it is to watch these movies with you two, as well as the other franchises you have experienced on this channel. Other reactors have a tendency to run their mouths throughout the movies and miss important details, but you guys react, then go right back to watching the films; giving them the respect they deserve, no matter which franchise you are viewing. Easily my new favorite reactors out there. Keep it up.
True, they due a decent job. They still could try to talk a little less because for movies like Harry Potter, they seem to miss some important info and then get confused. Good content, but the time they choose to talk tend to be bad timing on their part.
Totally agree, they are great! Dan Worrell is another who doesn't chatter through the film too much, but he and his 'guests' have a good discussion afterwards - he's also done the HP series.
Watching you both fall in love with this series brings me so much joy! The stories only get better! You MUST read the books with your kids when they’re appropriately aged.
This series gets progressively darker. But it's such fun to watch Harry, Hermione, and Ron grow up in front of your eyes.
"foreshadowing" is a perfect description for the entire series. The twists and turns are threaded throughout and will grab you every time.
I have watched and read the movies and books countless times and its hard for me to grasp how brilliant J.K. Rowling ever conceived what I think is the greatest tale ever created!
Sirius is the big hound you kept seeing throughout the movie.
Sirius, Rat-Man, and Harry’s Dad became Animagi (a long process in which a witch or wizard is able to shift into a one specific animal.) They did this to keep Lupin occupied when he became a Werewolf. As someone mentioned, they also made the Map :)
Great reaction, cheers guys :)
I'm glad y'all had such a great time watching this.
The man who played Sirius, Gary Oldman, is an excellent actor. He was in The Professional, The Fifth Element, and Christopher Nolan's Batman movies as well.
I liked him in bram stoker’s Dracula
It's more known as León but yeah
He made a mean Sid Vicious
I still remember him first as Lee Harvey Oswald in JFK.
Yes; he happens to also be my favorite actor. 💗 His portrayal of Sid Vicious of the Sex Pistols was one of his best performances, imho. 💟
Hey Jay and Amber:
One recurring theme that you'll notice in the Harry Potter franchise is that they always have a different professor that teaches the "Defense Against The Dark Arts" class
Basically, professors teaching Defense Against The Dark Arts are akin to being the drummer for Spinal Tap or a Red Shirt in the TOS era of Star Trek
HAHAHA I've called many things red shirts
Spoiler: a theory JK Rowling encourages is that the post was cursed by Voldemort after he was refused the position. Not confirmed, and I'm only saying it here because I'm sure Jay and Amber are not reading each and every reply to every comment lol
"That tree is a jerk." OMG, I burst out laughing.🤣🤣 Fabulous reaction and journey through this series with you both. Can't wait for more. 🙌😁
Saw this in the theater with Mom, she read all the books and obviously has knowledge about the characters, their backstory, and the theme of each book. During this decade, so many "Potter" nerds grew to love this fantastical adventure. Nice reaction guys. See you in Part 4.
This is my favorite story out of the entire series! Not only did it not include Voldemort in person…but it completely set up the rest of the series as a whole. Also Michael Gambon gave the character Dumbledore a more mischievous personality.
Yeah a lot of people complain about how he portrayed Dumbledore but personally I love the sass he brought
To me, Dumbledore's actual character was a hybrid of Richard Harris and Michael Gambon. Gambon was a bit too... wavey-abouty. Book!Dumbledore was a good bit more restrained in physical behavior but would come out with verbal mischief now and again. Like his first speech to the Hogwarts students on Harry's first day.
@@urthboundmisfit In the 3rd movie Gambon did a good job, but in movie 4 and 5 he's awful, too crazy and shouty in 4 and too vacant/angry in 5, though in movie 6 he does a great job. I think it's the director's fault in a large part.
Ron’s fear of spiders is the actual fear the actor has. Rupert Grint is terrified of spiders and he once said it didn’t take much acting to show fear with the spider scenes.
No, I bet it didn't. The spider scenes pretty much all CGI. Rupert was in front of a green screen reacting to nothing.
@@PlumbPitiful I’m just relaying information I heard from one of his interviews. You don’t believe it, don’t believe it. It’s only what the actor said HIMSELF but I’m sure you know better than the actual person.
@@causticchameleon7861 ... Can't you make your point without being snotty about it? I saw the same interview. The only practical spider was Aragog which was a giant puppet. All the rest were made in a computer during post production. He did say too that although he was afraid he was more impressed by the puppet and how it was operated
@@PlumbPitiful lmao bruh are you joking saying he is being "snotty"? If you think he is in the wrong your a idiot and yes I'm being "snotty" go cry about it
I’m new here! 🎉 I am a chronic Harry Potter reaction watcher. It helps my anxiety so much. I have to say I have LOVED your reactions. They have been amongst the top I’ve seen. I just love how you guys listen to the story and take all of the fantasy and emotions with a stride. No questioning or trying to predict too much. It’s just fun. ❤ Can’t wait for the next!
Same! Such a relaxing activity for me. Just in case you haven’t seen them, Veggie Gamer’s reactions to this series is beautiful as well. I am always on the hunt for decent reactions so like to share when I’ve found a good one too 💜
Check out Just Trust Ash reaction of HP too! They are hilarious.
You're a me! Been watching Harry Potter reactions for so long and never get tired
Thanks for recommending guys! I’ve found my people 😍
Same it's my main go-to.
Anecdote: Gary Oldman (Sirius Black) is the favorite actor of Daniel Radcliffe (Harry Potter), and having him in the movie made Radcliffe really nervous. They finally became very close during filming and had a the same uncle-nephew (or godfather-godchild) relationship as Black and Potter.
Oldman and Rickman are legends.
I have read the series multiple times and Prisoner of Azkaban is my favorite! I realized that I like learning about the pre-Harry era. The first Wizard War, the lives of Sirius, James, etc. at school, the events leading to the night Voldemort came for the Potters, etc.
I think that if they enjoyed this one, they’ll really enjoy Order of the Phoenix (another favorite book at the top for me) for reasons to come 👍🏽
A strong inherent theme in the HP books is Harry's loneliness and his desire to connect with family. You see his love for the Weasley family in second book / movie, and in this book / movie you see his desire to bond with his godfather. Out of respect to the channel, I won't say anything more than that.
And to be fair, the Weasleys see it in him too and quite happily treat him as if he was their own son. The Weasley family though, in general, got screwed over so badly in the movies. They are just so much.... more, in the books.
everyone and everything is so much more in the books. The scene in the shrieking shack (in the book) has some of my favorite dialogue in the whole series. The chapter is “Cat, Rat, and Dog,” if anyone wants to see what should have been, in the movie. 32:19
Slytherins have a reputation for putting themselves first, but what a true Slytherin values most is their loved ones. Gryffindors care about ideals, Hufflepuffs care about people in general, but Slytherins put their friends, family, and immediate clan above all else. This will be important later in the series... no spoilers :)
If you didn't notice, Aunt Marge was played by Pam Ferris, the same actress who played Ms. Trunchbull in Mathilda.
What I haven't seen many people discuss is that Harry was able to make such a powerful patronus because he was thinking of his father showing up to save them. He doesn't have a lot of happy thoughts from the life he's lived so far, and that belief that he would see his dad against all odds was just what he needed.
This is the film in the series where it starts to get dark from this point onwards and it only gets darker from here all the way to the big finale in the eighth film. The actress who plays Uncle Vernon’s sister is the same person you played Ms Turchball in Matilda. The professor who’s your favorite is played by Emma Thompson
and she was married to the actor who played lockheart in the 2nd movie!
The trunchbull tidbit is my fav
-If you go back and watch the original punching scene you can see future Hermione's hand on a stone wall in the background.
-A strong patronus takes the form of an animal, Harry's and his Dad's are a stag.
-Harry's father, Sirius, and Peter learned to become animagus so they could accompany Lupin when he transformed. Sirius was a dog, Peter a rat and James a stag.
-They were the "Mooney, Wormtail, Padfoot and Prongs" that made the Marauder's Map.
-Dumbledore wanted Lupin to be able to attend Hogwarts so The Shrieking Shack was made for lupin to go to on full moons to transform and the womping willow planted to keep students away.
-And if you think about it, Ron's divination was true. Harry suffered but was happy that he did because he discovered the truth about his Godfather.
-Everyone automatically assumed the person who betrayed the Potters was Sirius because he was their best friend and Peter cut his finger off and disappeared. The Potters actually gave the information to Peter because they thought Sirius would be too obvious.
-Hermione literally told you who was in the corner as soon as they sat down. There was a whole exchange about it.
-The dog was an animagus, It was sirius. Again Sirius IS NOT a werewolf.
-Sirius Black didn't train Peter. Where did you get that?
-They went back in time once. That WAS earlier.
-Dumbledore absolutely did not go back in time.
One of the few things that I wish had made it into this movie was that Harry's Dad and his friends created the Marauder's Map! I've never seen a reactor wonder why Lupin knew to say "mischief managed" at the end. 😆
Of all the movies I think this one really lost the spirit of the book. There is so much they left out that could have easily been explained.
@@weaverbee2808 I would much rather have them take 5 minutes to explain all that, rather than the 5 minutes of insults at the Dursley’s dinner table.
i just checked the original punching scene and i did not see Hermione's hand. There is even a wide shot showing the hiding space from the future scene with them not there.
@@NecramoniumVideo search for it. There's a reddit thread about it, scroll down for the comment with the 4k pictures and zoomed in video. It's hard to see but it's there. If you watch the spot you can see the hand move away.
this movie holds so many keys and bridges between the first movies and those going forward. You need to understand the details here to know the meaning of what is coming. J K Rowling had the whole story worked out when they started filming movie 1 even though the books had not yet been published. Layer upon layer. This is why watching this series multiple times is such a joy. You pick up on so may details and hints. I am enjoying this journey through your eyes
I’ve watched the whole series multiple times and still learn things I hadn’t before. I didn’t read the whole series-the second movie was out as I was finishing the first book and I wanted to see the films with my friends so it’s nice to fill it in more with comments from people who did read it.
I love all the little hints throughout the movie... like when the class is facing their greatest fears, and Lupin quickly steps in front of Harry's Dementor fear; for an instant we see LUPIN'S greatest fear: the full moon. Not to mention the Lupin (which grow wild all over the place here) is the "Wolf Flower", named after the latin word for wolf: lupus.
For me, this was my favorite book in the series. The third act with the time travel looping back on itself is phenomenal. When you saw it on the big screen, it was even better.
SO EXCITED! This is by far my favorite of the 8 movies. The style that Alfonso Cuaron brought to this movie is just wonderful. Will always be my favorite of the movies. I wish they brought him in to direct more.
I have a happy benevolent envy of you both experiencing this film series for the first time.
Your Harry Potter Fridays are only going to get more fascinating with each next chapter.
The next two films are my very favorites of the series.
I feel The Prisoner of Azkaban is the jump off point to where the series begins to really find it's bearings, hits it's stride, and becomes more honed and perfected in story, performance, film production, SFX, etc.
You have so MUCH GREATNESS yet to see.
Looking forward to next Friday, and the next!☺👍
I'm a major harry potter fan and am loving re experiencing the journey with you two. From here on out the more kid friendly movies you saw in the beginning start getting darker and more intense
Yes, one of the things I really like about these stories is that they grew along with the characters. Teenage Harry wouldn't be as bothered by lighter circumstances like young Harry was in book one.
@@AutumnForest862 I don’t know if I would call what Harry went through the first two movies for lighter circumstances. Almost killed during both of his Quidditch matches, Quirrell/Voldemort trying to murder you, fighting a huge basilisk by yourself and being pierced by one of it’s tooths in the proccess. Not to mention feeling unloved and tormented by the Dursleys for 11 years. It’s quite surprising he seemed to function like a ”normal” human being throughout the series with all the trauma he has endured.
@@Isildur94 People think that excessive vignette and dramatic camera shots/acting is what makes something darker and more intense. But just thinking through it, the whole series even from book 1 is pretty damn dark, the events that take place and the background story is very grim. It's just not as dramatically shot because the 1st 2 were definitely kids/family movies, while 3 onwards were aimed at teens.
By far my favorite HP movie. Alfonso Cuaron was such a gift to the franchise as a director, and the music in this one was next level, too!
It's so much fun watching you go thru what we went thru! Peace and Love!
The tone of the ENTIRE series changes after this movie. I absolutely cannot wait to see y'all experience the rest of this anthology. Always.
The guy who plays Sirius, Gary Oldman, is one of the greatest actors of our time and has been in some huge hits as well as smaller, independent films. I've been a huge fan of his since the mid '80s. He's been Sid Vicious of the Sex Pistols, Lee Harvey Oswald, Dracula, Commissioner Gordon (Batman), Beethoven ... He's just brilliant. And he was hilariously captivating as a filthy-rich, futuristic redneck villain in the Fifth Element. Kinda hard to describe that character.
The adult actors in this series are all legendary. These kids were blessed to learn from the best! That scene in the shack with them?perfection
Yeeessss! And don't forget Agent Stansfield in Leon: The Professional :)
He once portrayed a Hannibal Lecter victim, too, and a not very nice one at all. And hard to look at, because of what Lecter had done to him (more accurately, made him do to himself).
Just wanted to comment and say the reason Harry thought his dad was the one who conjured the patronus is because his dad was an animagus along with Sirius and Peter. Hence their names Padfoot the dog (Sirius) wormtail (Peter the rat) moony (Remus who’s a warewolf) and prongs. Prongs was Harry’s dad and his animagus was a deer which is why Harry’s patronus takes that form because he views his dad as his protector. The books go into a lot more detail about this and the mauraders in general so I thought I’d just comment and clear away any confusion :)
I love SOOOO much watching someone experience this magic for the first time! Y'alls faces when Harry conjured the Patronus were incredible!!!
Hufflepuff is often considered as the house for rejects, because each other house selects students based on desireable traits - bravery, cunning (and pure blood), intelligence - getting their pick of the litter, while Hufflepuff gets the rest, so it might seem like all the brave, cunning, and clever are filtered away from Hufflepuff, but Hufflepuffs get their share of great witches, and wizards too.
Tonks!
I wasn't sure how I was going to feel about Michael Gambon as Dumbledore after Richard Harris died, but he did such a great job. This is my 2nd most favorite of all the films. I love how prominent Hermione's role is in this one. The first film is #1 - love the kids and Harry learning he is a wizard. ❤
I didn't have any issues with the cast change, though I heard Daniel Radcliffe didn't warm to him and his portrayal of Dumbledore. I'm sure that's just a personality conflict, and they acted through any awkwardness well.
To me, Richard Harris seemed very old, wise, and powerful. Gambon was all that plus sly and a bit fun.
Yeah, Richard Harris was such a loss. A great man. He played the wise and highly respected Dumbledore well. However in the books, Dumbledore did have his "quirkiness" about him at times ... still wise, powerful and all knowing ... but a bit playfully weird at times. Gambon brought a bit of this. Who knows ... maybe Harris might of played it like this eventually.
Gambon is not nearly as good as Harris
Awesome reaction my friends. What is really overlooked is that the man who played Dumbledore in the first two movies was Richard Harris,…a Hollywood veteran,.. but he had cancer and passed away,..opening the door for Michael Gambon to play the part. He did a wonderful job in finishing out the series. The time sequences and foreshadowing in this movie as Amber mentioned were insanely mind blowing. Can’t wait for the next one. Thank you both….
Michael Gambon reminds me a bit of Ian McKellan, who played Gandalf in Lord of the Rings.
@@craigdragseth9272 It's the fake beards, irl they look very different.
I met the dude who plays Draco in real life. He was super cool, laid back, and humble.
It takes a very good actor to portray a character so well that the audience forgets the actor is acting. I once saw a play where the actor playing Pontius Pilate was booed when he walked onto the stage to makes his bows after the play was over. The director stormed out on the stage and had a few words with those who booed because they hated the character, but transferred their emotions onto the actor.
Dude’s name is Tom Felton, and by all accounts, he’s a great guy.
I do really enjoy Snape in the transformation scene. Comes out of the tree all pissed. Turns around and first thing he does? Shields the kids with his own body.
This upload made my day! This is my favorite of all the HP movies and I’m so glad you guys got to it so quick. Love that you both are loving it! Here’s to 5 more!!
I'm really enjoying watching you two experience Harry Potter! I'm soo sad though that you guys didn't react (or at least didn't show it) to Hermione grabbing Ron's hand during the Hippogriff lesson and their little cute awkward moment of like 'omg we just touched hands' lol. Such an iconic moment tbh
Unironically my favorite movie from a style and cinematic perspective. It's one of the best memories I had as a kid.
The way y'all jumped at the book trying to bite Harry was funny
When one finds the confidence to do something they never thought they could it is actually one of the joyous experiences one can have. That is why Harry is able to manifest that patronus
I love the whole series but I do think this my favorite. The balance between the dark and the light is so perfect. As the characters groww so does the themes and actions. They are coming into their own. (Those middle school years are always the most interesting. I know I teach middle school.)
Harry's dad and his friends were the creators of the Marauder's Map.
Moony - Lupin, nickname for being a werewolf
Wormtail - Peter Pettigrew, for being a rat
Padfoot - Sirius, for being a dog
Prongs - James Potter, for being a stag
That's how Lupin knew what the map was. Can't remember if they talk about this in the movie.
They don’t, but they really should have.
@@goldenageofdinosaurs7192 Also, the actual Star, Sirius, is also called the Dog Star
They didn’t!
I can just hear Amber now...her kids are running through the house and she says, "Arresto Momentum!" 😄
She'd probably prefer Imperio lol.
@@DaleHammersIII 😆
Has anyone mentioned that Gary Oldman, who played Sirius Black, was also Jean-Baptise Emmanuel Zorg (the bad guy with the weird hair) in The Fifth Element (amongst many other amazing roles)
“That tree is a jerk…” Y DID THAT CRACK ME UP SO MUCH! Lol
You guys are so amazing! I need more of this series asap lol!!! Love y'all and keep killing it!
What a reaction journey, I'm so, so happy you went in blind. This is not only the best of the Harry Potter films (It's just incredibly solid and well-done), this is the best time travel film by a long shot. There are no plot holes, the time travel is perfectly explained and foreshadowed, and the reveal feels amazing, all wrapped up in a story with a fabulous villain, a genuinely shocking twist, and a grand finale which sets up the rest of the ENTIRE series.
Fan-freaking-tastic film.
The author of the Maurader’s Map were Harry Potter’s father and his three friends.
James Potter- Prongs (Stag)
Remus Lupin- Moony (Werewolf)
Sirius Black- Padfoot (Dog)
Peter Pettigrew- Wormtail (Rat) 22:28
“That tree’s a jerk”. Best comment! 😂😂😂
Fun side note since this is the patronus movie. IN HP lore there was a dark wizard called raczidian who was sort of that ages voldemort. He had a legion of dementors for an army and the young boy who stopped them had a mouse for a patronus. It was the most powerful patronus ever documented and raczidian himself tried to conjure a patronus to fight off the mouse patronus, but since he was pure evil, maggots came out of his wands and ate him.
If this one blew your mind, you better buckle up for the rest. They only get better! Love the reactions!
I literally check everyday for these to be up! I love y’all! I recommend reacting to the 20th anniversary movie after finishing these. It’s great to see the actors and behind the scenes
I cant begin to describe how happy i am when I see the notification that you guys are watching a new Harry Potter movie 😁😁
18:10 I only just realised why The Dementor turns into the moon at this part, its showing what Lupin fears
“I solemnly swear I’m up to no good.”
I want that on my gravestone. ; )
Amber, you are CLEARLY a Hufflepuff... in all the BEST ways!
Your movie reactions show that you're so caring, kind and empathetic. You always get fired up when people are disloyal, unfair, or bullying others.
(I was sorted as Ravenclaw with Hufflepuff as a close second.)
I just love you two's reactions. A lot of reactors are half assed, gotta get through this. But you guys actually get's into it. Love it, lots of love here from Denmark😃👍
JK Rowling’s imagination and creativity in coming up with the world of Harry Potter. . . I am so grateful. My world was forever changed with these stories. I’m so glad you are on this journey, too! Thanks for taking us with you!
Imagine just writing a story in your spare time for your kids. Then one day a friend convinces you to publish it and it defines an entire generation. That must've blown her off her feet.
The Marauders map was actually created by Padfoot, Wormtail, Moony and Prongs who were Sirius, Pettigrew, Lupin and James Potter respectively. They were a gang and the jerk tree was also put in place to hide Lupin's transformation when he was a student cos he was a werewolf and Dumbledore wanted to protect him from the students and vice versa. Which led the other three to become animagi (I hope that's the plural for an animagus lol) just so they could keep their friend company. Oh an Animagi is a human shape shifter and James, Wormtail and Sirius could turn into a Stag, Rat and Wolf respectively
42:40
Sybil Trelawney wasn’t possessed, she made a prophesy at that time!
She was descended from a very important seer, Cassandra Trelawney very famous for her fortune telling abilities.
Even though the people thought that Sybil (the divination teacher) was a fraud she was a gifted teacher and witch! A bit odd but gifted!
Fortune telling at the point of making prophecies was extremely rare magical gift!
In a future film you will see why!
I’m not spoiling anything yet!
Ravenclaw here! 👋🏻 I totally knew which houses you’d be sorted into. Especially Amber is classic Hufflepuff. Azkaban is my favorite movie in the franchise. You will love this one. ❤
Ravenclaw is in the house
It wouldn't surprise me to find that in an alternate timeline, Hufflepuffs belong to House Amber.
You have no idea how much I longed and waited for this video to come out! Keep making great content!❤
The three main leads who plays Harry, Ron, & Hermione have the biggest growth spurt and Change between movies is in Order of the Phoenix in the fifth film where they look fully grown up. P.S. this film is the first appearance of Michael Gambon as Albus Dumbledore who took over for the actor played the character in the first two films because he passed away before filming of this movie
her (lupin hugs serious) : THEY TRICKED ME!!!
me: girl you boutta get banboozled again
This movie is the most special of the series for me. I was exactly the same age as harry when each movie came out, which was already amazing, but on opening day of this film, I was also visiting Scotland, where much of the movie was filmed, and even visited the bridge that the hogwarts express stalls on when the Dementors attack in the beginning.
To be a 13-year old watching a 13-year-old Harry on opening night in a country of magic, while surrounded by scenery from the movie, was incredible.
We also visited the rock formation called The Old Man of Storr, which the dragon chases harry around in the next film.
The book is even better and explains so much more. The third book is my favorite out of all them! Great reaction guys!
Amber, I believe you owe your older brother, who you thought was a nerd when you were younger for being so into Harry Potter an apology. 😉 I'm glad to see that you guys are so into the world of Harry Potter.
Harry is an extremely powerful wizard in strange ways. It’s had to do with many things hope you guys enjoy this movie series.
Oooo also
Snape almost died during the school year when they were teens bc Sirius pranked him into going to the shrieking shack when lupin was there. James potter found out and saved him. He resents James still
I had every dvd from the Harry potter movies that where out at the time as a kid... But i kept keep coming back to this one. This movie was a bit darker but has something hauntingly beautiful.
Whoop! I remember going to the cinema with my cousins to watch this. Loved it and its still my favourite HP movie. I never watched the other two because I wasn't interested in HP at the time. It was popular therefore I wasn't interested. But then I got Philosopher's Stone on VHS and I loved it!
The movies really start to pick up from here. You're going to love 4, Goblet of Fire. Can't wait to see your reaction.
