The mania behind the books were REAL and I lived through it. Midnight releases, getting spoilers, I've done it all. I'm so so grateful for this series. ❤
Yes- me too, I was there- for every release. I am so proud to be a true fan of these novels and to say they introduced me to a beautiful world of literature.
My aunt was a school librarian, so I got the books a few days ahead of full release, not realizing how lucky I was, she even laminated the covers for me, always hardback too. Crazy wild how it was
I remember when deathly hallows leaked and downloading a torrent full of photographs of every page, couple were blurry, but but oh boy....
I even remembered the classic "Snape kills Dumbledore" trolling as they drove past lines of hundreds of people waiting in line to get the book.
Sadly I wasn’t alive😂
@@michaelwilber774oh gosh, that is exciting- they would be worth a TON now if they weren’t laminated 😂. I always donate my books at the end of every year. Knowledge is power even if it is fictional knowledge, so I find someone who wants to read each book and just ask after they read it that they pass it along.
Tom Felton still calls Jason Isaacs "Dad" as a nickname. I love their off-screen relationship.
"I will not always be here, sadly, but Hagrid will." - Robbie Coltraine (1950-2022)
Also, Daniel's hypothetical child is no longer hypothetical!
I am a Hufflepuff, my patronus is a rattlesnake and my wand is spruce wood with a unicorn core, 11'' and has a slightly yielding flexibility. Besides Harry's and Voldemort's wands only a few other are made from a phoenix feather.
Did he have a baby!? Awh good for him. Rupert has his lil one and is was so much more public! I net they're both lovely lovely dads ❤🎉
Mine is a phoenix feather though, it's just pine ans 9 inches 😂
@@NoudlePipW Yes earlier this year!
Awww I didn’t know he had a kid!
Slytherin, mouse patronus, 12'' ebony dragon heartstring
I just heard this morning that Michael Gambon passed away today. So sad. He was a wonderful Dumbledore. 😢.
"Happiness can be found, even in the darkest of times, if one only remembers to turn on the light"
Yeah that’s so sad, was a brilliant Dumbledore. Just after watching the films too 😢
The final 'must watch' of this journey are the deleted scenes. There are three in particular that many fans feel really should have made the final cut. They're the scenes involving Aunt Petunia, Dudley and finally Draco.
I agree he must watch the deleted scenes next!
This was released in January 2002 and just 9 months later, Robbie Coltrane passed away in October. That made his statement in this reunion special all the more poignant "The legacy of the movies is that my children's generation will show them to their children. You can be watching it in 50 years time, easy. I'll not be here, sadly, but Hagrid will..." 😢
Alan Rickman's death in 2016 hit me the hardest. 😭I had been a fan of his since I first saw him in "Die Hard" (1988). After Severus Snape, my 2nd favorite is his performance as The Sheriff of Nottingham in "Robin Hood - Prince of Thieves" (1991). He is so over the top & simply hilarious in that film. RIP to both of them and to all the other wonderful actors that brought this saga to life for all the fans around the world... 💔
Oops, I'm sure that you meant to say January 2022. 👍👍
Alan rickman is perfect in dogma
@@danaclinton7105 right?
Emma Watson was horribly sexualised, you're absolutely right. From the paparazzi taking unfavorable pictures of her, to literal countdown websites to her turning 18 (the same thing that happened to Millie Bobby Brown), she had to go through it all.
Lindsay Lohan, Britney Spears, the Olsen twins, etc etc etc it is DISGUSTING.
@@christopherb501 Oh the list could go on and on :(
and onnnnnnnnn @@bidishah
Oh wow. That's gross
And still she act like a Bully against JK. Maybe she would then more understand the reason why women that are biological women do need to be protected in locker rooms and in sports and just in general in public spaces. She has a lot to learn from Evanna :)
I'm 33 now, and was 11 turning 12 when I first read book 1. Only 4 books were out by then so I was one of those that had to wait YEARS damnit. But it was worth it. ❤
Me too! I was always thought it was cool to be so close in age to the characters and to grow up with them. I will always cherish these books/movies ❤
You could possibly be a hatstall (when the hat takes a very long time to decide on a house because two or more houses are equally as good of a match, often resulting in the student making the choice) between gryffindor and slytherin.
If I remember correctly Professor McGonagall was the longest known hatstall between gryffindor and ravenclaw (5 whole minutes!?) before she ultimately became a gryffindor.
It has been such a lovely experience to follow your submersion into this rich and much-storied world. I also love your comments about the profound role storytelling plays for and within each human being. Watching you watch these films I was repeatedly struck by how perceptive, astute, emotionally 'on point' and deductively-reasoning-along-the-right-track you were. I thought you might exemplify all the best things about Slytherin house.
Wow Thankyou!!!
The actor who played Dumbledore “Sir Michael Gambon” died a few days ago 😢 RIP Sir Micheal 🕊
Watching your reaction felt like sitting with a friend and mate. Thank you for uploading!
I cry every single time I see someone watch this, without fail. It's so powerful ;-; I'm truly so grateful for this series and it will always have a special place in my heart and my life
🤗🤗🤗💛🧡❤
I just did this particular quiz for the first time, and the patronus info is fun and interesting. I got a calico cat which I very much liked the description/explanation of so I’ll take it lol.
I see that for the Fox it says “they are quick, intelligent and strongly ambitious. Although they are known for their cunning nature, they are very charismatic and easy to love. If your Patronus is a fox, you have an ability to think outside of the box and act quickly during emergency situations.” You got such a cool one👌
Oooh calico cat is cool! Yeah I liked fox too, very pleased.
It has been so entertaining to witness your immersion in this world, your ability to figure things out along the way, and your attachment to the individual characters as you watched them grow! I'm sure that you're going to enjoy the books, too! It's quite a story, yeah?
Your housemate is right about describing what Slytherins look for while answering such questions. When I answered the pathway question, all I could think about was how interesting and mysterious the dark alleyway looked. Plus, I'm a thrill seeker but not in the "going into the forest" kind because I think forest would have creatures, mosquitos, and I could potentially get lost (I like being safe or unsafe on my own terms). The dark alley just gave me crime and horror novel vibes, which I'm a big fan of. I think Slytherins are intrigued by mystery and opportunity. I love being a Slytherin!
Although the second time I took the quiz, I came out to be Ravenclaw. I still CHOOSE Slytherin. And I think our choices define us the most, as Dumbledore said. My Patronus was first a Phoenix, and then an Eagle. I love both, and I love the fact that they were both intelligent birds.
This was so fun to watch. Seeing the honest affection that remains between the actors is touching and makes the movies that much better to enjoy.
Slytherin, Dapple Grey Mare and a hornbeam wand. My whole family is Slytherin with the exception of my son, a Ron lookalike and a Gryffindor. 😊
Our wands are almost identical save for the length, I got sorted into Ravenclaw though. Which I'm quite proud of, Ravenclaw and Hufflepuff both need more love.
In total their are 23 Harry Potter actors who are sadly no longer with us from the Harry Potter movies
If you take the extended version of the house quiz, it will give you a breakdown of what percentage you fit in each house. This way, you can see what you are most out of all questions.
I’m a Hufflepuff (but also have a strong Ravenclaw streak), my patronus is a white mare, and my wand is maple wood, 12 1/4 inches, unicorn hair core, and surprisingly swishy.
This is a great idea. I definitely think some people are very close to another house type so it's cool to see a breakdown
So, I got RavenClaw when I did this quiz, and I don’t remember that much about my wand, but I do remember it was holly wood with a dragon heartstring core. But what shocked me the most...my patronus is a FOX!😂
I'm not surprised that you got Gryffindor now but Slytherin in the past (a Slyterdor) -- I don't believe there is only 4 types of people in this world, as is there isn't only 1 facet in each of us. I remember that for the longest time, I was a Hufflepuff, through and through, no matter how many different tests I took and then one day I took a random quiz, just for fun, and got Slytherin. I was baffled at the time but looking back, I shouldn't have been surprised as I was transitioning into a new career and felt very determined, ambitious, and driven to prove my worth in the new position. That was the headspace that I brought with me when I took that random quiz. Just like they said that the world is not divided into "good people and death eaters," we are made of multitudes.
Thank you for sharing this journey you took with your community. There is something so special watching these films again but from the perspective of someone who is witnessing the story for the first time with fresh eyes.
The writer for the film The Count of Monte Cristo, has such a perfect response to individuals like those that critique a movie that’s based on a book. When they say why weren’t you more accurate to the book?
His response was, Thank You. That wasn’t my job. My job was to write a film. If you want a dead ringer for the book, go read the book. It’s a great book. It’s just not a movie.
So many times, we have to remember that. These are films. Not books. They are different mediums. If you want to enjoy the book, go read the book.
YES!! And a lot of the times people forget that the movies should usually be around 2 hours long which means that it is so hard, almost impossible to squeeze everything from the book into a 2-hour-film, especially if you don't want the film to feel rushed. We love all the meaningful conversations the characters have in the books, but sadly we can't fit all of them into a film that also has a lot of big action scenes (like the Deathly Hallows Part 2) which take more time to show and visualize on screen than reading it on paper.
I'm a Ravenclaw with doe as a Patronus (same as Lily's and Snape's) and my wand is Hawthorn wood with a unicorn hair core (coincidentally Draco has the same wood and core in his original wand), 14 and half inches long with surprisingly swishy flexibility. I recommend to look up what characters possibly have the same Patronus or wand details as you as it was interesting to look for mine! I've noticed in one of the Finnish Harry Potter forums I'm in that the most common Patronus there has been a dolphin and a cat. I've heard of many other Patronuses as well, but this was the first time when I saw someone getting a fox as their Patronus, so in my books I'd say it's one of the uncommon ones to get!
Harry Potter was such a big part of my childhood, the memories are great. It’s so bittersweet. I was 11 when the first movie was released, the same age you attend your first year at Hogwarts. I had the toys, games, books, posters hanging in my room, my entire bed set was even Harry Potter related. 😂 I consider myself lucky to have seen all of the films in theaters when they were released. I agree with Emma Watson, it feels like no time has past, but really a lot of time has past. I’m in my 30s now, and it all seems just like yesterday. I still enjoy reading the books from time to time, or watching the movies. It takes me back home. We are the true Harry Potter generation, and those of us part of that true generation will understand. I can’t even watch the movies without a box of tissues, some of the scenes just make me start crying. When Harry uses the patronus charm to protect himself and Sirius by the lake…I cry every time!!
YES! I'M SO HAPPY YOU REACTED TO THIS! THANK YOU! 😭💔🔥
SAME OMG
In my time the books where everywhere and everything and i curse my self for not reading them sooner. I am a Hufflepuff my patronus is a Kingfisher and my wand is Ash wood with a phoenix core 12 ¼ and unyielding flexibility. The late Alan Rickman was the only person that knew from the start about Snape's character arch in the books and the series and he told no one. That in my opinion was what made his acting even better.
I totally agree with the snape thing. In fact, I think you couldn’t do the performance correctly without having the knowledge of what his character eventually would be revealed to be. Otherwise the subtext would be wrong in the earlier films.
sobbing at 4 am... again... every fan does.. the reunion was everything and more
dan crying saying it was a very good 10 years
the memorial
Rupert's I love you
Tom and Helena
Helen McCrory's death
Emma growing up
The trio's goodbye
...............
Always
Fun fact: 2:16 is not a picture of Emma Watson but Emma Roberts haha!
Was literally about to comment this, lol. Still can't believe that went through 😂
I can see this is the "not-fixed" version that Oscar is watching because the Phelps twins' name tags are also put the wrong way (the one in the left is Oliver and James is sitting in the right side of the screen). I've heard that they fixed the names in the new version, but I also hope they fixed the picture too or took it away completely, as this is pretty embarrassing XD
“I remember him from ever after”
great. Now I’ve fallen in love.
46:27 glad to still have ya! It’s like Harry tells Albus in the epilogue: “Slytherin house will have gained an excellent [member] .. the sorting hat takes your choice into account” ❤❤ but seriously glad to count you in our fine ranks!
I myself took it 3x when it came out, the first taken specifically to get myself into slytherin, the next to see if I could get myself into gryffindor, then finally to me where I got slytherin.
-though it was pointed out to me that if I was taking it and aiming to get certain outcomes, that was all the proof needed to confirm I was a slytherin 😂 proof was in the pudding lol
Also, foxes are almost always described as cunning in folklore and fables. Welcome to slytherin friend! Even your patronus confirms it!
Ps I also chose resilience
So….were you going to choose serve, protect, or seek????😂😂
I absolutely loved watching your reactions to this franchise. It really was a huge part of my life growing up. My grandparents bought me the first few books. My mom took me to midnight book launches and would let me skip school to read (as long as I was ahead😂). My friends and I still go to Harry Potter trivia and have movie nights. It’s really is such a huge part of so many peoples lives and I’m so thankful to have grown up during the HP mania. And we’re so excited you’re in now too!!!!! Slytherin for life!!!!🐍🐍🐍
Gosh i remember watching this last year. After growing up with the books and movies it waa incredibly emotional. I was doing pretty well until the "in memoriam" and then the "always" at the end absolutely finished me off. And we've unfortunately lost Robbie Coltrane (Hagrid) and Michael Gambon (Dumbledore) since this came out. I remember everyone sharing the clip from this of Robbie saying he'll not be here but Hagrid will be 😭. Also he wasn't mentioned specifically but I was a big fan of Roger Lloyd-Pack who played Barty Crouch Sr in Goblet of Fire who unfortunately died quite young. He was in a sitcom I grew up watching (Vicar of Dibley..which was actually lead by Dawn French who played the fat lady in Prisoner of Azkaban. She was the one trying to crack a glass with her voice. She's a glorious human). Also very sweet seeing Dan talk about his hypothetical children since he just had his first child which is lovely. Dan Radcliffe is one of my favourite humans I just think he's the loveliest. You mention child actors struggling well he was one of them and I think struggled with alcohol for a while but he seems to be doing great now. Every time i see him i just want to be best friends with him. Absolutely lovely man.
Love the shout out for A Room With a View--I can't believe you've seen it! Such a sweet movie, and Helena is fantastic in it.
Why am I crying 🤧 I watched the whole series so many times, watched the reunion so many times so whyyyyyyy Ma gosh ❤
It was a bittersweet journey watching all these reactions with you!
I've watched the anniversary reunion so many times but it gets me everytime 😢
Thanks for all your reactions to each of the films and this too it's been great to watch
Please consider watching Team StarKid's A Very Potter Musical trilogy that parodies the films. Even though the audio is not great (considering being done at a university theater), the acting and music/songs make up for it. Some things didn't age the best and there is bad language and "adult" themes, but they are so much fun and well worth a look. Please think about it.
I was looking to see if someone mentioned this--otherwise, I would have! Certainly things I'd want them to adjust on reflection, but they're just so much fun and so clever and well done.
@@SPEWitch Yes!!!! Also, the fact that the first one is done BEFORE the end of the series yet has some similarities to the movies is mind blowing. I know they had the same source material in the books, but it still is cool for some of yhe details to be so similar in the plays and movies. 🙂
I just took those tests myself: I'm a Slytherin (though last time I got Ravenclaw, I kinda go back and forth between the two), Magpie patronus, and an Elder wand with phoenix core, 12.5 inch
definitely a once-in-a-lifetime book series and movie series. glad the films were done very well. it was cool to be a part of such a heartwarming, suspenseful, exciting, tragic, and uplifting series
Loved your reaction to the series and how fast you’re pumping it out!! So many channels drag it on and on…. Excited to see this one!
Same! 👌🏾
I'm a Ravenclaw, my patronus is a snowy owl & my wand is Rowan wood with a dragon core 12 ¾" and slightly yielding flexibility.
Another error they didn't catch. They switched the actors' names on screen. Oliver is in the turquoise, James in black. 13:37
Dan saying "my hypothetical children" in the reunion, and NOW he has become a parent in April of this year so odd to just so recently he had said that, and now he IS a parent. Robby Coltrane saying "i won't be here, but Hagrid will", and then him passing just very shortly after that..RIP Robbie. All the ones that past...so sad. I ADORE Helena Bonham Carter..she has such a cheeky personality that bubbles under the surface all the time, and her playing Princess Margaret on the Crown OMG...there is a scene with her talking to Margaret Thatcher in the episode "The Blamoral Test" where she tells her she needs a time off work for perspective....Great job and thank you for choosing to look at this reunion. Ignorant means untaught or not being informed or instructed, not stupid. So it isn't as big an insult as some think. If you think about it, your wand sounds A LOT like Harry and Voldemort's wands...phoenix cores--rarest of cores (and weird that like Harry you could go either way Slytherin or Griffindor), but yours is closer to Harry's at both 11 ish inches, but Harry's wand was flexible. I myself am a Hufflepuff (dedicated, patient, loyal) Newt Scamander from Fantastic Beasts, and Cedric Diggory are Hufflepuffs, I have a MINK PATRONUS Those with the Mink patronus are very clever. Often humorous, those with this patronus can be very witty and a pleasure to be around. Conversely, those who have the Mink patronus can be a trickster, not to be trusted. People who conjure this patronus can be solitary in nature, spending lots of time alone, and my WAND is black walnut wood, unicorn hair core, is 12 and 1/4 inches long, and is unyielding in flexibility.
I mean, I live in Germany, but as I think the forth or fifth book released here, my father went to get my mum a copy. She was a real big fan and pregnant so he really wanted to get it 😂 The queues were out to the street so dad went to a trainstation and was one of few to think of looking in the bookstore there. He got a copy and went back, again passing the queues. Multiple people were asking to buy the book from him. Thats a story that stuck with me in regards to the books.
Awesome loved the reaction and the potter more stuff, love knowing peoples houses and patronus
It was sad for me to have finally caught up on these reactions, I'm missing them already! Thank you for all the laughs and definitely some tears, I was crying along with you even if I've seen these movies maybe too many times.
I'm Ravenclaw with a Lynx patronus, Yew wand with dragon heartstring core, 10 3/4" and slightly springy flexibility
And now Sir Michael Gambon JUST passed away. The timing with your reaction series is almost haunting. 💔💔💔
grow up with this guys, this characters and stories and all that feelings. its absolutely amazing and I am very glad to lived this live (in Heart) side by side with them. I love beeing part of this fans. now i am 33 years old, and Harry Potter and the universe is a every day-piece of my life. Music, books hearbooks, clothes, decorations, also my daugther with her almost 6 years love the franchise-stuff.
It's funny that all your answers were the exact same as mine except the question about going into the woods or the alley. And your explanation of how your friend explained why a slytherin would choose the dark alley and not the woods was exactly my thought process of why i picked the alley, I hadn't really thought about it until now. I got slytherin in the end, its just funny that that one question was the difference between slytherin and gryffindor.
I'm a Hufflepuff and my patronus is a wood mouse (lol I know, I would have loved something cool like a fox or wolf but alas no but I've excepted it). My wand is Hawthorne wood with a Phoenix Core 12 and 1/4" length, quite bendy flexibility. Very interesting description as the Hawthorne wood wand "The wandmaker Gregorovitch wrote that hawthorn ‘makes a strange, contradictory wand, as full of paradoxes as the tree that gave it birth, whose leaves and blossoms heal, and yet whose cut branches smell of death.’ While I disagree with many of Gregorovitch’s conclusions, we concur about hawthorn wands, which are complex and intriguing in their natures, just like the owners who best suit them. Hawthorn wands may be particularly suited to healing magic, but they are also adept at curses, and I have generally observed that the hawthorn wand seems most at home with a conflicted nature, or with a witch or wizard passing through a period of turmoil. Hawthorn is not easy to master, however, and I would only ever consider placing a hawthorn wand in the hands of a witch or wizard of proven talent, or the consequences might be dangerous. Hawthorn wands have a notable peculiarity: their spells can, when badly handled, backfire." I find that fascinating cuz I consider myself an extremely boring person lol.
I wish you watch "Fantastic Beasts and Where to find them" (the last 2 movies sucks tbh, but the first was really fun) love your reactions 💘💘💘
I'm a Slytherin with a lynx patronus. My wand is 14 and a half inches, yew with a phoenix feather core and slightly springy flexibility
22:22 just when I was watching this, I get a notification saying Michael Gambon (Dumbledore) has passed away. Age of 82
was watching his reactions from the earlier movies and found out too, heartbreaking really 💔
I remember how excited I was before the book releases! I miss being that excited about something.
Yay I'm so glad you did this! 🥳 I find it so interesting to watch someone else answer questions and hear their reasoning ❤ I thought you were going to be a Hufflepuff for sure because of how emotionally intelligent you've been throughout these reactions. You spotted things straight away and were able to see through the character's actions to understand why they're feeling the way they are ❤ I loved it! You also seem to always want to do things for the greater good and help those in need. Knowing now that your birthday is 2nd July, that makes a bit more sense 😜 Cancer's unite! My birthday is 17th July (Cancer), I'm a Hufflepuff, my wand is ebony wood, unicorn core, 13 1/4 inches, quite bendy flexibility. My patronus is a dapple grey mare ❤ Which is so lovely because my rocking horse I had as a child was a dapple ❤ I'm also an INFP (mediator) on the 16 personalities quiz. I tell you this because I remember you asking in a previous video that you wanted to know what we all were. I also love doing personality quizes just like you. I mean I already know who I am and am very secure in that fact, but it's nice to see the results none-the-less. It's kinda like "Yeh, you got that right, well done quiz master" haha 😂 Any way, great videos! I love your personality and your reactions and I look forward to checking out more of your content. Big love from Manchester UK xXx
Thanks! Glad this was entertainment!
Thank you for this serie. I had really good time with u.
A Fellow Griff!!
The anniversary special always makes me cry. It hits hard to see how special all of it was not only for the cast and crew but for everyone that grew up with the movies. I'm the same age basically as the main trio and I remember every movie release and being in queues and all of that. It felt so great to be somewhat part of a community and for them, it must have been insane. They had to deal with a lot of sht as well, unfortunately bu I love that they were always able to count with each other and that they had fantastic cast members to help and advise them not only acting wise but also how to deal with the crazyness of it all.
Your results were pretty fun hah
I'm a Gryffindor with a Ragdoll Cat patronus and a Larch wood with a dragon core 11 ¾" and surprisingly swishy flexibility wand btw
Aww great Patronus! Mine was a horse. Specfically a bay mare...so a female horse mainly brown in colour with black accents. Which i absolutely love! I always joke my patronus would be a giraffe but i don't think that was an option 🤣🤣 I think horse is fairly close to that all things considered though. My dad got an Irish Wolf Hound which is basically the dog you see Sirius as in Order of the Phoenix and I think that's a great one and fits him well 🤣. There are some very amusing options. Shoutout to the people who got salmon 🤣 but hey..they're strong and persistent and ambitious fish 😁
I just redid my Pottermore quiz because it’s been years since I’ve done it and watching your quiz I saw so much has changed in the website so I figured they probably added more questions and went more in depth so I did it and I will gladly say I’m still a Hufflepuff but my patronus has changed from a blackbird to a fox terrier, and my wand has changed from Sycamore wood to pear wood
You should see the movie called "The Patriot" it has Jason Isaac (Lucius Malfoy) in it, alongside a list of amazing actors.
I’m Slytherin, my wand is walnut 10 and 3 quarter inches unicorn core and my patronus is a black mamba which I’m told is quite rare… and yes I see the irony in a Slytherin getting a snake patronus.
The way you react on movies is just unique, I became a real fan ❤
Knowing Evannas struggle with eating disorders, she really was something special. ❤
Yes! I first saw toby jones in ever after I've loved him as an actor ever since
Oh you totally should read the books, they're fantastic. I'm sure even reading them as an adult.
I loved this video! Congratulations! You not only got sorted into Slytherin, but you are also now sorted into Gryffindor. Yes, it is possible! I got sorted into both houses myself I have two more houses to get to. I believe I have a little bit quality from every house from my youth to my adulthood. That is a cool Patronus you got too. Oh may I suggest you physically read the books along with listening to the audio version only because I know you would lean more to audio, and I would preferably read a book, you would have the best of both worlds; for me reading the book I discovered it was what I call a "page turner" I found it difficult to put the books down, because I had to go to work, get back to work, had something to look forward to afterwork just so I can read more and turn over more pages! I did the same while reading Lord of the Rings and any other book that took me away another place and time. You'll see slight differences in the characters along with the characters you didn't get see. Enjoy it all! ☮ and 💕
Proud Ravenclaw with a beechwood & unicorn hair wand & a dapple gray stallion patronus.
Wizardmore site has an extended House quiz that shows the percentage of each House. I was over 50% Ravenclaw with Hufflepuff coming in 2nd at 24% & Slytherin was the lowest at 4%.
You should spend more time with animals. They are smart & they have their own individual personalities. I’ve spent my entire life around horses (explains Patronus) as well as dogs, cats, cows, chickens & various other birds & reptiles. I’ve even had fish. If you spend time with the same animal & are receptive to that animal & observant enough you will see their personality & intelligence.
I’ve known animals smarter than some humans I’ve had to deal with & I’ve had pets & companion animals with more diverse personalities than people.
I didn't know about this extended quiz until reading this. I took the potter more quiz twice and got Ravenclaw the first time and Hufflepuff the second. I just took the Wizardmore quiz and got 26% Ravenclaw. 26% Hufflepuff, 26% Slytherin, and 22% Gryffindor. The sorting hat would have a tough time with me!
We can acknowledge that fact that there are far better writers and novels... more intricate story lines than Harry Potter. But what sets it apart is it feels home. It gives a sense of warmth...
I was blessed to be part of those moments when the whole world was anticipating for the release of the last 3 books that people were lining up at twilight outside bookstores just to get copies on release day. And fans camping out for days in Trafalgar Square to see the cast one last time during the premiere of the 8th movie and the end of an Era.
At this point, the number of years I've been a Potterhead is more than half of how long I've lived 😂 And yeah, millions of us are like that.
I enjoyed rewatching this with you! And really appreciate your genuine reaction. So thank you
That reunion for me was all about those fabulous actors that now is not with us anymore. Helen McRory, Alan Rickman and John Hurt is three of them that I miss the most. The day Alan Rickman died i got the news from a friend over FB. It was so sad and he is like the greatest character in this story.
Use it well, yeah all IQ and personality tests. It says use it well!
Animals are dumb... dude you are stepping on thin ice! To speak to animals would be a way to actually know weather they are smart, have souls, feel things so on.
I highly recommend watching all the behind the scenes documentary type videos for each film. You don't need to make reaction videos for them, but just for yourself since you loved the reunion so much!
Your weekly reminder that there's a *very good reason* the creator wasn't directly involved with this one.
Glad you enjoyed the ride, Mr. Couch. Now all things considered, and for everyone's good, let's get off and not look back.
The series has something for almost everyone. Surely there is a character or a theme that resonates with each person's life. In my case in many ways I'm very much like Hermione but at the end of the day it's Harry's story that resonates for me. I grew up in a broken, fragmented home with a lot of instability and no father (I was barely 4 when he died). I was quite grown when I first read the series but it really helped me to be a grandfather in some ways.
The most magical thing about this series is it bonded together so many people that might otherwise never have spoken to each other or even would’ve met. Plus it was cool not being the only bookworm anymore 😂
I took the test 3 times and came up Gryffindor each time. It surprised me because I was sure I'd be a Ravenclaw.
as a ravenclaw, even before you got your result i was thinking you were either a ravenclaw of gryffindor. the way you think about all these questions and seeing every aspects of them is very ravenclaw of you😄but you also prefer the greater good rathen than your own benefit, which is kinda unlikely of a slytherin :) i can see both gryffindor and ravenclaw in you which is actually the case with most people. even in the harry potter characters, most of them have qualities of two houses
I'm so glad I lived through this. As a 94 baby I read the series from the get go, and I can't understand what life I would have lived if it wasn't shaped by this.i think I would have been a very different person
"I want to be surrounded by people that are going to help me grow, and I think that being surrounded by achievers in Slytherin would be the best environment for that" holy shit, that's an statement! Thank you for those words, fellow Slytherin!
I am a Slytherin and my patronus is a black swan. I love my results
I will keep reminding you of Arcane 😊
you should watch Sweeney Todd ( 2017)both Allan Rickman and Helena Bonham Carter killed it in that movie! Besides that, I always had you pegged as a Gryffindor or a Hufflepuff. So no real surprises there. Slytherin's and Gryffindor's are alot more alike than you think by the way 😉. Anyway, welcome to the wonderful group of Potterheads! I always enjoy welcoming a new fan to this amazing world😁
I think at the end of your hogwarts sorting when you described why you would choose Slytherin, you have shown a lot of simularities with Horace Slughorn. Slughorn was of corse a Slytherin who liked surround himself with famous and ambitious people who he starts connecting with as their teacher in school. He has a lot of empathy and he never joined the dark side even though Voldemort tried to hire him. He also never strived for power himself because he prefered to be in second line. Did you mean something like this when you said you would like to be surrounded by ambitious people?
Of corse Slughorn was also the one to give Voldemort information about Horcurxes. But unlike in the sixth movie - young Tom Riddle wasn't suspecious in any way. He was more like the charming, gifted student we saw in the second movie and I can remember that you were also surprised when it turned out, that he was actually the darkest wizard of all time.
The only one to know about Riddles dark side was of corse Dumbledore who saw glimpses of it in him when he first told Riddle he was a wizard.
rewatching this reminds me that Michael Gambon is also no longer with us as of Sept 27th
I am so happy that you loved the Harry Potter franchise ❤, I don't know if you know but J. K Rowling is preparing a reboot for HBO, but in series mode, more faithful to the books, in case you would like to see it.
Welcome to the wizarding world officially!
I'm a fellow Gryffindor! but I'm certainly a Gryffindor to the very core! I tried it SO MANY TIMES and I only got Slytherin once and every single time I'm just a Gryffindor so yep.
with a vine wood wand with dragon heartstrings as core.
My Patronus is a bay mare! which I LOVE because I adore horses and I find them one of the most loyal animals and their loyalty once earned is unwavering even more then a dog and they're of the smart side of animals as well!
I got hufflepuff, my patronus is a calico cat and my wand is redwood with unicorn core 9 3/4 with supple flexibility.
46:46 that's my mentality too. when i got slytherin, i knew it had to be because of the ambition.
Proud Slytherin here, everyone sees us as evil but we are just ambitious, proud and stick to our values
Im a slytherin
My patronus happens to be a mouse
Wand was a 12'' ebony dragon heartstring wand
I love the Part in the reunion video when Helena Bonham Carter says to Dan that’s hanging up in my toilet 🤣
Never clicked so freaking fast in my life on a video!! 😂❤️
to this day Tom still calls his movie parents as mom and dad. Jason Isaacs still greets him happy bday all the time and he'd be like " Thanks dad" huhuhu
my house was Hufflepuff, patronus was a Manx Cat (kinda like a bobtail), I honestly forget what my wand was XD
I do the tests multible times and I always be a Slytherin. I feel Slytherin since I was 11 years young and reading about Snape, Draco, Lucius and co. Btw Horace Slughorn is a Slyherin, too.
Slytherin here! My wand is a hawthorn wood with a dragon core(12 3/4 size), and my patronus is a hedgehog ~
(I just realised i sat down to watch a hedgehog on my way home from work today... The patronus thought didn't even hit me 0.0)
Proud Slytherin here, Pride, Ambition, Cunning. Every test I take has been Slytherin, my Patronus is a Nightjar, and my wand is a 13" Cypress Wand with a Phoenix core. Surprisingly Swishy Flexibility. I even plugged mt results into the Hogwarts Legacy Game.
House - Slytherin
Patronus - Black Mamba
Wand - aspen wood, dragon heartstring core, 12 3/4 inches, unbending flexibility.
ohhh you have the same wand wood and core type as mine, just different length and flexibility. Welcome to the club haha
Ravenclaw here! My patronus is a deerhound and I have a cypress wand.
House quizzes are so interesting. Obviously as you say, it's not the be all and end all...but it's fun. Having grown up with the stories I like to try and guess people's houses. You've always given me Ravenclaw vibes but obviously I don't know you all I've done is watch some videos 🤣. I definitely think it is quite easy for them to be interchangeable. It's interesting for me personally as I very strongly indentify as a Hufflepuff. I always knew I was going to get it and I did. Just the general feeling of what comes with that house felt right with me. As someone who feels this way, i find it quite easy to see someone flipping between Gryffindor, Ravenclaw and Slytherin as I feel they hold more similar. I think, for example, it would be quite difficult to flip between Hufflepuff and Slytherin...but maybe Hufflepuff and Gryffindor and I know a lot of people feel quite Ravenclaw/Hufflepuff (I'm sure it is possible but from my personal perspective i find it difficult to see). That said, i think i am a fairly stereotypical Hufflepuff which is why i found it so easy. Cedric was a Hufflepuff...personally you couldn't pay me enough to put my name in the Goblet of Fire or...even play Quidditch to be honest 🤣🤣. I'm not particularly after adventure, I'm not particularly brave, certainly not in the traditional sense, i'm not rebellious...and I'm fine with all these things 🤣. I'm usually quite good at guessing. That said, the person i know best in the world is my dad and I have absolutely no idea for him. I got him to do the test once and he got Slytherin. He's an incredible person so certainly not a bad Slytherin. I think he could very easily flip around though I'm not sure he'd ever feel my version of Hufflepuff. He always laughs when I talk about being one 🤣. I probably feel like Gryffindor is the best house for "a combination of everything". I'd certainly love to hear from anyone who has always felt a strong connection with a house that's not Hufflepuff and felt that they would always get it and that they did, in the same way I feel about Hufflepuff 🤣🤣. As I say, all of this is not binding...i just, like you, enjoy learning about people and myself through these silly things 🤣. Watching your though process around the answers was interesting. I personally am not looking for intelligent conversation from animals i just want to be able to ask my cat what he wants and tell him it's only temporary when we take him to the vet. Also be around most individual animal for long enough they definitely all have personalities. My cat is called Neville, after Neville Longbottom. He's definitely a Gryffindor hahahah so we chose well. Anyway I'll shut up now.
