I'VE FIGURED IT OUT! How Did Dolores Umbridge Produce A Patronus?
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 21 сен 2024
- Today I wanna talk about Dolores Umbridge and in particular why she was able to produce a patronus despite having what id call the ugliest heart in the wizarding world. For a woman who loves imposing misery, how is she even able to conjure the level of happiness required to even conjure a patronus.

Simply put, Umbridge will only produce a patronus if she's happy. Her perspective of being happy is to give kids hard time and seeing Muggle Borns being punished.
Poor Hermione and Justin and Dean
nailed it!
THIS. Delores in her environment - sitting in judgement over those she considers beneath her with legal authority to validate her beliefs, evil creatures about her that live to make the unclean suffer... oh, yeah. For Delores, that's Heaven - and a Patronus for her in those conditions is beyond simple.
Education, and ironically politics as well, is notoriously filled with psychopaths as a field. People who like inflicting pain often flock to positions where they can abuse their power on vulnerable people, they seem to like hurting vulnerable people more.
@@amandasunshine2 who doesn't
IMHO She actually believed what she was doing was right. It made her happy to bring what she thought was order and proper behavior to others. She never saw herself as evil.
I was going to say this. Because a patronus is more than just a happy memory, otherwise any deatheater could perform one. It takes a pure of heart element, free of doing bad things, and enjoying them. When you look at Snape's ability to produce a patronus, it comes from his love for Lily, and the memories of the only time he was truly happy. With Delores, it not only comes from her ability to be in charge, and in full control. It comes from her self righteousness, and believing that she is doing the right thing. It's like a lot of religious people that commit horrible acts in the name of their God. We might view their actions as evil, but in their minds they are doing the right thing.
So I do think she gets genuine pleasure from making kids suffer. Education (and politics for that matter) is unfortunately a common field for functioning psychopaths to go into. They like the power and they like using it to cause children pain. She likes order, but it's far more an excuse to be able to abuse kids.
Thats why i figured shed be able to produce one. She didnt see herself as evil, she believed what she was doing was for the greater good.
@@Larka661 For the greater good? Oh, how ironic...lol
the thing is those who are evil don't see themselves as evil. Also I want to point out that it has to do with a pure emotion like love, for those who have no love in their hearts or no "pure" emotion can't conjure a patronus. It's about more than happiness.
Before watching this video. I have this theory, the fact that Umbridge's heart is very twisted have something to do with her ability to produce Patronus. For example, a good chunk of Death Eaters although they enjoy doing evil, the fact that they are conscious that they're doing evil despite enjoying it made them unable to produce Patronus. Umbridge is completely unaware that what she's doing is remotely wrong.
Same!
Pure of heart does not guarantee a good heart. She’s a living example. Loving these videos!
She's Pure Alright
Pure Evil That Is
@@SunGodNika-bi2jr LOL!
Like when Vegeta went Super Saiyan.
In some cases Pure of Heart could also mean Pure Evil
I always thought of it as Delores' happy memories being subjective, deriving pleasure from pain and suffering in others
My question is WHY was Umbridge not punished by the law for her sending Dementors after Harry at the end of the fifth book? Sure, she was removed from Hogwarts and two years later she was sent to Azkaban for crimes against muggleborns, but I still question why was she never punished in the first place.
In the book when Umbridge's quill cut words into Harry's hand they healed up so he could could keep cutting them in again and again until eventually his hand stopped healing and Umbridge said "I think we can get the message to go deeper next time."
Power is a powerful thing. I guess that's why she could have her patronas , the happiness in her mind with her power.
I always wanted to see Umbridge subjected to the cruciatus curse. I wanted to read what happened to the Longbottoms happen to Umbridge.😡 She is the only person who actually deserved that.
But make sure they stop and make her think it endend just to start again
@@vincie2100LOL
Agreed.
Scumbridge deserves to suffer The Cruciatus Curse herself for what she did to the Muggle-Borns.
1:16 The reason why people (self included) hate Dolores more that Voldemort is actually quite simple. Reality. Voldemort is the type of evil only found in movies/books/comics. He is so evil through and through that he is non-sensical - almost cartoonish. Dolores, however, is more grounded. Most people have, at one time or another, run into the type of person who, given even the smallest modicum of authority, goes full tyrant - making life a living hell for those who 'dare' oppose them. And they do so in the name of the parent/teacher/school/company/government/religion/etc. that binds them together in the first place. They are morally wrong, but can justify their actions based on some interpretation of the the code of the body that gave them the authority.
We all know that person. Dolores triggers that personal, real connection we had with that individual in our life, and we empathize with the characters under her thumb. That's why we hate her.
Voldemort’s evil is fantastical… beyond everyday human experience. Dolores’s evil is personal.
Voldemort's evil is like a certain Hitler's evil.I do get your point and agree too.😃👍
I think the fact the screen was splashed with pink tones while you were describing all her tyrannic acts, is quite telling about her ambiguous character. She was comfortable in her own skin, being a walking contradiction. mostly because color pink can be associated to childish/girlish innocence, yet, her heart was so inclined to the achievement of power and getting her way at all cost. So it is definitely why, as you said, she was living a life of joy and happiness and it's why she was able to produce a Patronus without exploding into instant combustion. Being cruel and merciless made her happy and the Patronus fuels from happy memories to the caster, so being vile produced in her stamina and happy hormones and that's why she was able to produce her Patronus.
Let's hope she's not as skillful I'm wand less and non verbal casts, so she can't never scape from Azkaban by warding off dementors.
That was a great answer. I had thought about it all wrong.
You have the best harry potter videos ever!
It's a sign of a skilled actor to make you despise them. A genius actor can fully immerse themselves into their role as if it were their reality.
Keep the channel go I ng; you're the BEST!
Easy. She was totally in her element and was absolutely ecstatic about it. She was easily the happiest she had ever been.
I thought the tale of the dark wizard who got eaten by maggots had that happen because his idea of a happy memory was something cruel and horrific. Maybe that isn't the case or Umbridge didn't quite reach that point. I was thinking her happy memory involved cats, and her patronus herself helped remind her of it. Her fondness for cats seems to be the only "normal" good thing about her.
To cast a patronus you need a happy memory and believe 100% that what you are doing is good Dolores unbridge is an psychopath she is 100% happy with what she does and thinks she is doing the right thing.
She was EXTREMLY HAPPY with the state of things. That could have been her first time.
It’s what she does with the power that makes her evil. Because she can experience happiness, she can produce a Patronus, but what makes her happy is what defines her as evil. In my personal opinion.
You produce a patronous when you have a happy memory. She gets happy memories from fear & torture
Can we have a video about why James and Sirius weren’t in the slug club? The way they were described they were the most popular gifted students in school
Missynnifer,yeah now you said it.Maybe the reason is 1st Slughorn asked and they declined. 2nd is they're troublemakers and Sluggy kicked them out. 3rd at that time they hated people from their rival house. With their beliefs and them being pranksters.
I think she is so in Love with herself that she was able to do this...
yes
Umbridge is especially terrifying to us teachers, who have dealt with toxic and narcissistic admins on our own lives. In the inner circles of education, calling your superior 'an umbridge' behind her back is the ultimate insult.
I was always shocked she could, especially as she was wearing the horcrux of Slytherin's locket at the time to pretend she was a member of the Sacred 28 Selwyn family. I do wonder why it didn't suck the life out of her as it did the trio. Love this video.
locket liked her and chose to respect her, same taste buds
Maybe the locket worked similarly to Griffindor‘s sword. Only true Slytherins wouldn‘t get their life sucked out.
Your artwork has been amazing lately!!
Thank you! Cheers!
to simplify 10 minuts into one sentence
She took joy in toturing people
In point of fact, if you look closely at the podium where she sat adjudicating in the Ministry, you can see her wand is atop the podium and her hand is resting atop the wand. Thus, it appears she didn't have an extraordinary power that allowed her a patronus without a wand.
I wonder how Ilvermorny would celebrate Groundhog Day?
It’s pretty interesting that specific type of magic doesn’t distinguish between types of happiness. That a happy feeling/thought which is caused from the harm of others can’t be seen differently than one that is from thoughts that most people would consider happy (friends/family, playing with a pet, falling in love, etc).
But then again, happiness and joy are subjective so I can see what the magic doesn’t separate them but still fascinating
i always have seen Dolores Umbridge as one of the biggest Karens
Great explanation of how she could produce it. You make my favorite videos
Glad you like them!
Isn’t Umbridge’s Patronus more of a cat Inferi?
Arn’t all Kats inferi 😂😂
Pureness and goodness does not a patronus make…
Because it makes her happy to punish other wizards
Exactly!
If she were a D&D character, she would have an alignment of Lawful Evil.
To paraphrase what others have said, I will say it like this: Delores is a good example of a true sociopath, as such, she considers nothing she does as evil. How could SHE do evil? Everything she does is for the "Greater Good"...
Umbridge is the only reason that rereading the books takes me so long. I’ll breeze through the first four books and then take months to finish the fifth just because she gets me so angry I have to shut the book and walk away.
Always takes me aback when I see theories like this, and think to myself "Huh... I realized this, as a child, the very fist time seeing the movie" XD
Simply put, because she's literally evil and she enjoys it.
her evilness is actually her inner happiness
@@HarryPotterFolklore Literally, couldn't agree more!
@@HarryPotterFolklore That shows how how disturbing she is. At least Voldermort had a reason to be evil.
@@StuartLugsden I was just thinking that!
@@IrishLegendLuna2008Yeah. Grounded villains like Umbridge can sometimes be far far more disturbing than those that aren't. Voldermort wasn't evil by choice and he's predictable. She made the choice to be evil.
Misery loves company! Dolores Umbridge loved inflicting misery. Case closed.
I loved her the villains are always the best we need more like her
If I was a student at hogwarts when she had her tenure there, she wouldn't not have lasted long. 2 words. Avada Kadavra
A character played so effectively by Imelda Staunton.
So… She is just happy to have power… makes sense I guess?
I give props to the actress, the fact that she can make her character more hated then the big bad shows her skills in acting. 👏
She genuinely believed what she was doing was right, but punishing muggle borns for existing and torturing students makes her evil.
Subjecting someone to a dementor's kiss just because you could sounds evil to me.
Her patronus took the form of a cat because she feels like others are rodents. She was absolutely happy to have a job at the ministry of magic that allowed her to be in a position of authority.
It is to bad that Hermione stopped Dolores from using the cruciatus curse, I think if she had used it things might not have worked out for her.
Happy Groundhog Day, everyone!
YAY!
I totally agree with this analysis. I would add that once you master the patronus spell, it is not impossible to let it last more (as when Dumbledore or McGonagall use it as a messenger). But of course, it's not the case for Umbridge, outside some extraordinary circumstance
Imelda Staunton did such a good job as the character in my opinion every time I seen her in scene she made you feel uncomfortable or angry also do you plan to play and cover lore from hogwarts legacy ?
Umbridge living out her dream might really be the reason why she could cast a patronus.
She's still really evil though. Her extreme egoisim, always acting out her own will without consideration for other people's wellbeing shows Umbridge truly has no morality at all. She's evil all right.
This is why I love your videos
I still think she’s evil my least favorite movie is the one that she is in the most
I like Order Of The Phoenix, It has Luna, but my favourite is Goblet Of Fire, Prisoner Of Azkaban, Deathly Hallows Part 2, The Sorcerers Stone
She enjoys being cruel. I have some relatives that are like that "I'm happy when you're miserable".
Causing pain makes her happy
Can you do Hannah Abbot?
A evil wizard can still have happy memories. Torturing Longbottoms parents to Bellatrix would be a very happy memory. Probably a good enough to be her Petronas
I agree she isn't evil. Because she doesn't really have a motive behind her actions other than enjoying power and being in charge.
She also clearly loved order and we know she believed that the ends do sometimes justify the means. So I think she thought overall everything she did was "for the greater good". Just like Dumbledore did. The difference is that her idea of "good" was very different and limited
She was one of those people that enjoyed the suffering of others. It was from her sadistic nature.
Love it!
What truly makes me sick is knowing she has the same Patronus as McGonagall!
Minerva deserves better!
Just read the books again and I still don't know where the idea that you need a pure heart to produce a Patronus comes from. All it takes is a very happy memory, in Umbridge's case that would be a memory of her being a particularly nasty b*tch to someone. Death Eaters probably could have learned it if they wanted to, but they didn't need to because the dementors were on their side
look up the history of the patronus and you'll see why.
Why was this even a question?? It's COMMON SENSE. She doesn't have to be good. She doesn't have to be pleasant. She just had to be HAPPY. And her getting to make everyone miserable made her the happiest she could be! It's OBVIOUS.
Dolores Umbridge convinced me that it could actually be possible to use dark arts in a way that wouldn't be evil.
Without watching it, I can probably guess that it’s because of the bad that she does give her enough happiness that she can make a physical manifestation.
I get a "Carmelita Spats" vibe from the idea of a young Dolores Umbridge
She was once given the Dementor’s Kiss, and *the dementor* died because *she* sucked out *its* soul
So she's sadistic yeah that explains it
Voldemort has sort of a super villian appeal going for him, he's so over the top evil, looks like a circus freak and is super powerful.
Uxbridge is a much more realistic villian. A sneaky, racist,power hungry super Karen.
But they made her happy
There have only been around a dozen or so Voldemort's in recent history (Hitler, Stalin, Mao, the Kims, etc). But there have been thousands, if not millions, of Umbridges experienced within our lifetime.
One doesn't have to be noble to be happy. I know we like to tell ourselves this but truth is some of the evilest people in history were also amongst the happiest.
She nailed it, to the extent that I can't see that actress without seething with anger. She is worse than anyone in the series because of the differences in motivation.
Umbridge and Voldemort could be a married couple if they wouldn't have killed each other.
Umbridge could produce a patronus because she enjoyed what she did. Thats just a big fat DUH. evil or not, torturing others made her happy.
9:26 looks like a wand in her right hand to me. more important how powerful that patronus cat had to be to keep that many dementors at bay. also a happy memory for dolores could be her love of cats as you see them in her office when she's head master of hogwarts and clothes design
I think she is evil but the prerequisite of a patronus is happiness not good morality.
Her patronus is Schrödinger's cat it exists in an uncertain state it's everything she isn't and everything she is
When it comes to how Umbridge was shown on the screen I say, "Hate the character, but respect the Actress!"
7:14
Her page on the Pure Evil wiki: are you sure about that
She is definitely more evil than Voldemort. I’ll die on that hill lol
Do u make the arts for your videos? They're magnificent!!! 💖💖
Harry should have frozen her she's like the most hated principle in your school
I think it wasn’t her patronus but another ministry members
Is anyone going to do a theory video oh how the Horcrux didnt effect her? She was evil yes, but that horcrux basically fed on peoples fears and anger. Umbridge may have been evil, but she didnt believe she was. Voldemort knew he was evil and he owned it. But youd think Umbridge would've been afraid to lose her position or something.
I agree in general but I still think that she enjoyed torturing kids, I don't buy that for her it was just a means to an end. Who if not a sadist could think of using the pen that carved the words into the hands of the user?
I'm IrishLegendLuna2008,
I have a question: Does Fergus Cowley ever appear in the
books or films? I DISLIKE UMBRIDGE!
wait........
I DON'T CARE FOR HER
AND HATE
HER!!!
For a patronus you just need to be happy, not good. Evil people are generally happy with their evil deeds. So I guess umbridge must produce a real powerful patronus.
Both Voldormert and Umbridge are equally worse lol ❤😂😂!🎥🎬📽️🎞️📖📚
Is she really based on.... Margaret Thatcher?
Who’s playin Umbridge ? I😮❤😂😂🧐
Lupin said a patronus is produced by happy thoughts so umbrige in a position of power where she gets to be cruel that makes her happy so there’s literally no reason for this video it’s obvious how and why she is able to produce it
That actress should of gotten an award for portraying this nasty lady so well while not being that awful a person herself.
We see Umbridge as 'worse' than Voldemort in some cases because most of us have KNOWN someone exactly like her.
A 'sociopath' (really more Obsessive-Compulsive, but many see her as the former). Someone with an incredibly short temper that wants things their 'way' and to their beliefs.
She lied and broke the law to get her way. In My (not so humble) opinion, she knew exactly what she was doing. She craved power, and thoroughly enjoyed hurting people. That's evil.
Yes, it's the bureaucratic narcissism of loving power for the sake of power. She just wants to do things, to have an effect, to matter. The effects of those decisions on others lives, don't matter just that SHE gets to make them. The numbers on the spreadsheet must be balanced after all.
Yeah there was never a question of can a mean person produce a Patronus you only have to be happy to produce one and mean people are usually very happy 😂 they act as they please why wouldn’t they be
I think most people actually hate her more than voldemort. She is a wonderful actress though 😅
