The fact that Lupin and Tonk’s relationship was basically nonexistent in the movies has always been one of my least favorite parts of the movies.

What about the funeral of Albus Dumbledore? That was A MOMENT!

You're right about Voldemort's death, because in the book it shows him dying like a human, his greatest fear.

The Harry and Dudley respect moment should been part of the big movie.

What about Percy being a brat and then making up with the family + Fred Death scene 💔😔

I was not expecting Neville’s parents in St. Mungo’s to be number 1, but I agree! Neville is my favorite character. That was such an important scene. And it’s one of my favorites in the entire series.

And "The kiss", Hermione kissed Ron because he was worried about the elfs, not because of the "adrenaline"

9 should be Umbridge confirms that she was the one who sent Dementors after Harry.

One day they really should make Harry Potter into a series with a high budget, like Game of Thrones. That way they can include every detail from the books that was left out of the movies.

how about the one in Order of the Phoenix where Ginny was basically the only one to talk some sense into Harry about how he was not possessed by Voldemort?

if this list doesnt include the scene where harry destroys half of dumbledore's office screaming at him then i declare it invalid edit: invALID

In conjunction with the Marauder's story and becoming animagi (I believe that's the plural) I feel like it should have also been mentioned that in Goblet of Fire Rita Skeeter was also an animagus herself. She turned into a beetle and spied on Harry to try to eek out embellished stories.

The one I was waiting for the whole list, thinking it would be #1, was Fred & George’s campaign against Umbridge. In the books, the one bright spot of Dumbledore’s ouster from Hogwarts was the fact that it unleashed the Weasley twins. Prank after prank after prank, conducted with sly assistance from the teachers, had Headmistress Umbridge tearing out her hair in frustration for weeks until the final huge prank (turning a big chunk of the castle into a swamp) was enacted as a distraction in order for Harry to burgle her office. And when she finally thought she had them cornered, they made their glorious escape. It was deliciously satisfying, but the movie reduced it to just a bit of fireworks. Not even an honorable mention?!?

Number 5 should be Dumbledore’s reveal that he gave Harry his father’s cloak and that it was a deathly Hollow.

I would have lost my mind if we got to see Kreacher and the Hogwarts House Elves join in the Battle of Hogwarts. Behind Harry the door that led to the kitchens was blasted off its hinges. The house-elves of Hogwarts swarmed into the Entrance Hall, screaming and waving carving knives and cleavers, and at their head, the locket of Regulus Black bouncing on his chest, was Kreacher, his bullfrog’s voice audible even above this din: ‘Fight! Fight! Fight for my master, defender of house-elves!

In my opinion, The Order of the Phoenix is the best book, but the worst film throghout the series, with lots of important details being cut out. For some absolutely nonsense reason they added some crazy shit thus distorting the characters and the plot

Also about the scene in The Order of The Phoenix where Harry asks Headless Nick if there was a possibility of Serious's coming back even as a ghost and the afterward conversation with Luna Lovegood.

I miss Winky not being in the films. :'(

I don't think it's right that the movies skip over the development of Lupin and Tonks' relationship. Even though I've never read the books, I would have loved to see them meet and fall in love.

I would have liked to see Hermione do the potions room from book 1.

First of all, there is no Charlie Weasley present in the movies at all. They mention him in passing, but that’s it. In the books, doesn’t he fight with his family at the Battle of Hogwarts? Honestly, Petunia receiving the Howler from Dumbledore should have been more than an honorable mention. In the books, you find out more about Petunia. When Lilly was revealed to be a witch and was accepted into Hogwarts, Petunia wrote to Dumbledore asking if she can attend the school as well. So, Petunia’s hatred of wizards and witches stems more from jealousy then anything. In The Order of the Phoenix (I think), Petunia knows what the Dementors are, asking how “aren’t they suppose to guard Azkaban?” This leads Harry to ask how Petunia knows about them and she continuously says, “doesn’t matter, go to your room”. And in The Deathly Hallows, Petunia shares a somewhat tender moment with Harry when the Dursley leave to go into hiding.

“There’s no need to call me ‘sir’ Professor.” 😂

I love Harry Potter series, so automatically I like the films. However, they screwed them all up.

GOBLET MAZE?! are you kidding me? there was a maze....but it sure as hell wasn't THE maze.

Fudge & Scrimgeour talking with the muggle minister.... Crabbe & Goyle being little girls 4 Draco. I really want to see that 😂

Not including Ludo Bagman really pissed me off..

Who the Marauders are and the backstory. Plus; how they REALLY got into the whooping willow

I was missing the scene in the Goblet of Fire when the Weasley's came bursting through the Dursley's non-existent fireplace to pick up Harry. That scene makes me laugh every time.

what about the first time Harry successfully cast the Cruciatus spell on Alecto after he insulted Mcgonagall?? That was FUN

In hp and the cursed child, Dudley actually took Harry’s old baby blanket (the only thing that he had left from his parents) from the Dursley house and gave it to Harry.

The Quidditch finale where Slytherin cheat like motherlovers that was huge c'mon it's the only time Harry actually gets to win the quidditch cup personally because I think Gryffindor wins it again but he was suspended because him and one of the twins destroyed malfoy deservedly so tho

I'd also add Molly Weasely comforting Harry in the hospital wing at the end of Goblet of Fire.

To be fair I don’t remember Lupin and Tonks getting a lot of development in the books. Honestly to me it came kind of out of left field.

The most important things to me that were left out were the meetings Harry had in Dumbledore's office in Half-blood Prince, looking at memories in the pensieve, especially the stuff about the Gaunts.

I would have loved to have the scene from the sorcerer's stone where Charlie Weasley sends his friends to pick up Norbert and deliver him to the dragon sanctuary . However what I would've done is have Charlie go with them since we only see Charlie for a second on that paper that Ron shows Harry in prisoner of azkaban . Also I wished Bill was introduced in goblet of fire since we Bill only appears in that paper that Ron shows Harry and in Deathly Hallows parts 1&2 .

One scene in the novels that touched my heart was in Deathly Hallows when they visit The Lovegoods and see the painting in Luna's room. I wish they had portrayed that in the movie only to emphasize the meaning of friendship as well give Luna's character even more depth in the movies

0:33 'There could still be spoilers ahead', immediately followed by 'You're a wizard, Harry.' It's fine. That was just a minor spoiler. :)

Peeves scenes were actually already filmed.. but they couldn't make him look any different from the house ghosts, so they took him out.

#3. Rik Mayall was just too naturally talented and funny for the producers to keep around.

I would have liked to see more of what was in the book in The Deathly Hallows Part 2.

Some of these were way less important then Voldemort's parents and the Gaunts. It explained his difficulties with love and shed light on the darkness Voldemort came from. I still feel sorry for his mom.

I would have like too see Hermione pull off a sick armbar to get Voldemort’s wand

Not bad MsMojo! Although I must say the movies are still BRILLIANT! They did a great job all around and crammed a whole lot of story and detail into them all the same. My favorite bit from this List would be Dudley's goodbye. Would have liked to see that in the Theatrical Version.

What about the Hogwarts Qudditch final?

Love the channel😘

What also should have been in the movies is the obstacles in the maze (4th book, Harry Potter & the goblet of fire)... for example 1) Sphinx with it's riddle, 2)Blast-ended screwt & Aragogs offspring.... Also, the fight after Dumbledore dies (Hagrid & Mcgonagall fighting/being attacked)....

I thought the birthday party for Nearly Headless Nick should have been in the movies. That was a really funny part of the book.

Story of Regulus Black? No? OK

I would've loved the S.P.E.W. in the movies. In the Dutch books, it was called Stichting(Foundation) Huiself (Houselve) voor Inburgering (for Integration) en Tolerantie (and Tolerance.) It was already a bit cheeky in the books, but now imagine that in the movie! :D

Can't wait for the series!

Harry deffending Albus Dumbledore and telling Aberforth how much Albus is hurting over what happend with their sister - the Weasleys and Malfoys loyality over family like Fred and George trying to beat Draco for insulting their family, Ron getting mad at Harry for kissing Ginny because of how hurt Ginny was of the break up and Draco deffending his family everytime someone talks bad about his mom or dad or Lucius begging Voldemort for him to go to Draco - Snape asking the portrait to not call Hermione a mudblood - Snape trying to hit the deatheater that attact Remus - Remus telling Harry that Snape helped him by giving him portion for when he was a werewolf - Fleur's and Bill's relationship - Harry checking to see if Ginny was safe when he was on the run and Hermione crying over Ron - how much other characters lost in the first wizarding war: Molly two brothers, Neville both parents, Remus all of his best friends (or he atleast thought so), Sirius his best friend - the houseelfs and centaurs coming to deffend Hogwarts - Albus admitting how brave he thougt Snape was and hinting he belonged in Gryffindor - how brave Ron and Neville were

#2 Yes. Sirius being my 2nd favorite and POA being my favorite book. THAT pissed me off to no end

Should had more Dobby Harry and Ginny kiss and Neville parents

6yo me was so salty that the potions riddle wasn't in the film.

The Weasleys coming to see Harry as his family during the Tri-Wizars tournament is one if my favorite missing scenes ans really explains Bill and Fluers relationship as well. No exact scenes, but i always felt Nevilles didnt get enough in the movies. Hes much more impactful in the books

also because of the way harry hid the potions book he later knew where to find the horcrux. But they cut that part out, too, didn't they...

This video shouldn't have counted deleted scenes. (Dudley) that should be a completely different video.

"Have a biscuit, Potter!" is the greatest plot twist in the series.

The moments I was most sad about not making the movie were the Harry and Dudley convo at the end and Nevilles backstory but tbh all the moments mentioned in this video as well, I just prefer the books over the movies so much.

They should have made it into a TV series!! One episode per chapter!

I really hope we one day will get to see the entire Harry Potter series as a TV show, where they can add some of the books best moments.

9:30 Wish I could see more of Howler’s in the Harry Potter movie series. It was so awesome when it screamed in Ron’s face and towards the end, it threw its tongue at him and ripped itself apart. The silence in the room was unbelievable! #HarryPotter #Howler

I agree with the whole list... I would have also add the goblet of fire movie left out big chucks from the book; for example, the final round of the tournament.

Well, I searched "scenes in harry potter books that should have been in the movies" precisely because I was thinking of Neville's parents. So I'm glad that that's the #1. Agree with pretty much all the others. I would like to note though, that if the potions puzzle in the 1st book is included, then they should also follow the Devil's Snare scene as it was in the books. In the movie, if I remember right, they made it so Hermione was calm and knew exactly what to do to kill the plant. But in the books, it was Harry's idea to light a fire, then Hermione was panicking and said, "yes, but there's no wood!" It was only after Ron bellowed, "are you a witch or not?" that she thought to use her flame spell. I believe in the movies, they gave that 'room' to Hermione instead so they don't have to include the potions room. So basically, they left 3 rooms to highlight each one's ability: (a) Devil's Snare for Hermione, (b) flying key room for Harry, and (c) chess room for Ron.

The one that I was anxious to see that didn't happen was the instant swamp in the upstairs hall!

Very very great list I like it a lot and a lot of fun too and very funny too

The part to where Ginny took Harry's place as seeker for the Gryffindor Quidditch team was true because in the video game adaptation it did that after Harry casted the Sectumsempra spell on Malfoy in some random bathroom at Hogwarts, Snape came in to check on Malfoy and asked Harry on where he learned that spell and Harry gave no answer. So Snape decided to suspend Harry from the Quidditch team and served detention for what he did.

Happy Easter 🐣🐰🐇 Sunday!!!

YES!! PEEVES! He should have been in the movie. Rik Mayall filmed all his scenes for the first movie but it was cut out of the movie. They don't even have the deleted scenes in the extras. I want those scenes

I miss the battle of Hogwarts house elf scene. It's my favourite bit from all the books. Creature leading the charge would have been awesome to watch :)

Kreacher's story and redemption was a HUGE mistake to leave out. It was honestly one of my favorite story arcs in the whole series

Something that should have been in both: Harry finding a resurrection stone and bringing Hedwig back (I love Hedwig, she’s adorable)

Goblet of fire world cup Quidditch. Harry and the weasleys in the seats with the minister for Magic.We meet Draco's mother for the 1st time,Winkey is keeping a "spare seat", while shaking as she's scared of heights, and the leprechaun show before the match. I would have loved to have seen them. Plus winky getting fired/freed because the guy in the "empty seat" was really an invisible Barty Crouch jr, who escaped thanks to stealing Harrys' wand!

The whole battle of Hogwarts was totally different. No giants, houselves, dragons, centaurs, etc. I wish they would have included the scene with McGonagall in Ravenclaw tower. Also, the beginning of Goblet of Fire with the Weaselys meeting the Dursleys, Bill meeting Harry, the Weaselys, Harry, and Hermione sitting in the good seats at the world cup, and the muggles who ran the campsite. and later in the book, Molly and Bill visiting Harry for the family day. Tonks was my favorite and she was underutilized in the movies. She was at Hogwarts a few times in the sixth book T

4:49 Ahem! That’s the Room of REQUIREMENT!

I would want to know more about the Black Sisters

I don't know exactly what it's called but I always wanted Nearly Headless Nick's storyline to be more elaborate. I believe it was in Chamber of Secrets when he and Harry went to the Headless birthday party. It was an unimportant scene but this and the absence of Peeves makes me sad since I really wanted to find out more about the ghosts' storyline. Also, I think in the book it was explained how one becomes a ghost or a painting after dying, I really liked that part and it gave a whole new layer to every ghost and painting since all of these people had a reason why they wanted to stay on the Earth.

What about the quidditch World Cup?

Which of you agree that all Harry Potter movies should have been like all the Lord of the Rings movies, very long movies! 3 hours long?!

The potion riddle is the best scene that should been in the movie Its in the philosopher stone which highlights hermione just like how they highlight ron

I’m glad I finally read the books after growing up with the movies. They are 100% better. I understand you can only fit so much in a two-hour movie but so much is left out & thrown together, especially in the order of the Phoenix and the half-blood prince. I really wanted to see more of Voldemort’s past.

The final battle in the films and Voldemort's death were perfect. They faced off just as they did in PS. Just the two of them. The two bastions of good and evil, fighting one-on-one. If the book had them one-on-one, and the film didn't, a lot of people would be arguing that it was a typical film making things overly visual and dramatic. I much prefer his film death. Voldemort's ultimate goal was immortality. For him to just disappear is very poetic. He wanted to live forever, and, just like that, he was gone. He didn't leave a body behind to be buried, or burnt. His life's goal was just over; completely reversed in a matter of seconds. Like Slughorn says, "But that's life I suppose. You - you go along, and suddenly… Poof." Also, it makes sense his body wouldn't survive. We know the soul and physical body are linked - that's why Voldemort looks the way he does. We know that having such little and damaged soul makes your body vulnerable to being destroyed - as that's what happened in Godric's Hollow, all those years before. In Godric's Hollow, his body vanished. It makes sense to assume it disintegrated like it does in DHP2. Voldemort only survived that because of his Horcruxes. This time he has none left, so his body again disintegrates, but now his soul gets trapped in Limbo, forever. Book fans want to have their cake and it eat. They talk about how Voldemort was less than a man, having lost 7/8 of his soul, that's why his appearance is changed. Yet they'll also say "he was just a man, that's why he should die a normal death." You can't have it both ways. Fact is, he was less than a man, his body's destruction in Godric's Hollow reflects that, and that's why his film death makes perfect sense. I understand his book death, but you cannot deny that his film death has deeper meaning than "HOLLYWOOD SUX. ONLY INTERESTED IN SFX" like most people claim it does. Neville gave Harry the gillyweed in 4th year. Seeing more house-elves would be awesome, but what would be cut? Sectumsempra is the only spell he invented. And it was a point of contention. You just made up it wasn't. Because you're so fucking clearly biased.

Haven't even watched the vid yet, but from the thumbnail alone I can only say YES MERLIN! Neville's parents deserved to be in there! (Would have also allowed for a great comeback from Lockhart).

What about the Sphinx in the maze during the Triwizard tournament in the Goblet of Fire?

REGULUS BLACK

6:56 looks like they forgot to get rid of the green screen in the top right haha

Another thing that was missing from the movies is that Neville could've been the Chosen One, though you can argue that in the scene involving Snape's memories in DH2 Dumbledore says, "The prophecy did not refer to a woman. It spoke of a boy born at the end of July." and if you knew Neville's birthday they did kind of allude to the fact.

How about when Harry meets Ted Tonks before going to the Burrow during the 7 Potters scene?

#6. I was so mad that they did Ginny and Harry’s first kiss SO WRONG! It’s also played into why Ron started to ignore him and and why Harry/Hermione became closer! #4. Tonks and Lupin were one of my favorite couples and they did them so dirty!! #3. Peeves. I will never forgive them for Peeves because he helped Fred and George with their exciting scene and helped during the final battle! Also I hated that the Winky story and S. P. E. W. was completely ignored.

I would love a movie about the marauders .

I only saw a few of the movies but I read the books also I wrote property of the half-blood princess in every book I have (me being the Slytherin that I am)

Peeves!!! 😍 😍

5:50 Btw lily's eyes.

Even though I'm very happy with the movies and love them very much, there are many scenes I wish they included instead of changing a lot of them.

They are currently playing the Harry Potter mouse on the USA network. I wonder if that’s what sparked this list?

Did you put on the countdown petunia saying to Harry you didn't just lose a mother that night in godrick's hollow I lost a sister.

Haven't watched the entire thing but number one for me is the phase 2 of the battle of Hogwarts the centaurs finally coming to their senses and deciding to fight and especially kreacher leading the house elves to help that would've been awesome

1# voldemort past

They are awesome, though!

Peter Pettigrew's death, he scared the crap out of preteen me, and I was invested in seeing his demise
