I watched that at least 3 times

Very true.

"chemistry"

There's a difference. One had important stuff left out, the other added unnecessary shit.

Agreed

@@tonyhou9246 its normal😂

this is true

@@jerryg.kenney5666 the relationships were really just hard to watch, most of all Harry and Ginnys relationship, where in the books they were played out perfectly and it just seemed to flow with the book

YES. So many small moments between Harry and Dumbledore were cut from the films, their relationship in the books felt so much more developed and realistic

The movies butchered Ron and Dumbledore.

SNAPEY SNAPE

Same

​​@@cactusmalone Ah, you see no, just no. Whoever came up with that theory is out of their mind, and has no clue what theyre talking about.

It's coz Emma and Daniel are friends off set, not to mention he had a crush on her when they were little. Bonnie and Daniel hardly have any chemistry not to mention they completely pulvarized Ginny's character. Even Harry was very different in the books. So yeah, it's the directors fault, they were clearly pushing for Harry and Hermione since the start, and they even said it themselves that they thought that two main characters, a boy and a girl are meant to end up together.

It's best to ship couples that actually happen rather than ones that are totally false and never happened in any canon.

​@@brysontipton1893 sure, but it doesn't really matter, does it?

@@rabiyaashraf950 That has absolutely nothing to do with it. The lack of chemistry between Harry and Ginny was solely a writing problem; not an acting problem. Nothing that you typed explains the incompetent writing whatsoever

@@rabiyaashraf950 the problem is that Ron is meant to be the 2nd most important character in the series (only behind Harry), but Steve Kloves was so in love with Hermione that he pulverized Ron's characterization and elevated Hermione to that place. The only reason that people saw Hermione as a good fit for Harry was because her character in the films was made to be practically flawless. In the books, its very clear that Harry and Hermione do not have chemistry and would not be a good match. In the films, its the opposite.

Underrated comment

Oh, you just made me realise why I found this film so boring. I hate romcoms.

Agreed.

so true haha

Yo hahaha 😂

He had more chemistry with his left sock than he had with Ginny in HBP (the movie) thanks to crappy writing

agreed

And one added note: As this movie was Greyback's introduction to movie audiences, it featured him appropriately. However, the following book featured him some more as the leader of a group of snatchers but in the movie, the leader was switched and Greyback became a background character in different-looking makeup. I never understood that writing choice. I really hope the series is redone and redone faithfully to the novels. The book series deserves as much.

Also why did the pictures not move?

The pictures did move.. that's why it was careless. The waitress even comments on it.

@@kenhammscousin4716 OOOOOOOOOoooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh, I must not have been very observant when I first saw it

I actually just watched a video by Harry Potter THeory, and let me first state that I really do like his channel, where he lists his picks for twenty times the books bombed and the movies were great. He actually mentions the burning of the Burrow as one of those great moments . Sorry, no.

Exactly

Are you sure that’s true? Seems a bit unbelievable that they wouldn’t know where the Weasley‘s house is. I always thought the ministry had put some spells on the house and that made it impossible to attack until the ministry fell.

I don't even understand why it was in the movie

Don’t forget the grindylow… it was supposed to be in 3 but wasn’t.

The Humans should've gone to war against the wizard kind, that would've shown that Voldemort and Salazar were right all along, for not wanting non-wizard's in the magic world

I know in the movies she's either ron little sister or Harry's girlfriend and in the books she's a fucking badass

Brett Larch to be honest I really disliked her in the books. She was attention-seeking and mean to fleur, ron and luna

@@suzanne5574 When was she ever mean to Luna?

@@suzanne5574 Thank you! I hated Ginny. She was horrible in the second book. She knew she was the one opening the chamber of secrets, she knows the diary is involved. But she doesn't say anything. Doesn't get help. Lets student after student get attacked, risks having someone get killed, lets Harry be suspected, lets Dumbledore get fired, and worst of all, lets Hagrid be accused and dragged off to jail! And doesn't try to get help!!! And in the end, when everything's discovered she sobs...but not for all the people (including Hermione) who've spent the year in a coma, not for Harry, not for Dumbledore, not even for Hagrid. No, she sobs for herself because she's scared she'll be expelled!!! What a selfish sociopath. After that she just always seemed a bit skanky and desperate for male attention to be honest. And she was also mean to Neville. When they have the ball in book four and Harry and Ron are wondering who Neville's taking she admits it's her and acts like she is embarrassed and too good for Neville. She says something like well it's the only way I'd get to go...Yeah, never liked her.

I don't like Book Ginny that much. She's almost seems like a borderline bully. But Movie Ginny is simply dull.

Damn they made Harry soo dryy

In the books, Malfoy used the Cruciatus Curse on Harry. I can't believe he was standing there apologising, I was cheering 😂😂

@@groot8950 SAME HAHA

I don't think he should have done it though. And Ginny just blindly told him he's right while Hermione called him out on his BS. Harry could have been in serious trouble, and Ginny didn't even call him out.

@@groot8950 well in the book draco tried to crucio harry and that's why ginny defended harry and said that it was out of self defense. like she didn't say it was perfectly fine but she said that he shouldn't be hated for it because he did it out of self defense.

That entire sequence is just breathtaking and so painful in the book. I don't think I'll ever not cry while reading it 😭

I agree. You never really saw those moments of Snape's elemental rage in the movies and those to me are an important part of his character.

Exactly! Shit made me cry when I was 15 back in 2016 and read it for the first time. I was excited to see this movie too but when I saw the lack of the Gaunts and insane levels of romance I was like…huh?

Not having a phoenix song was an absolute crime, could have been a standout to the score.

Did you miss how respected Dumbledore was in the movie? I thought that was loud and clear

The scene with Harry and Ginny during the funeral is one of my favourites in the series. It shows how much Ginny actually loves Harry and respects him.

I felt that it made it more personal having Harry trust Dumbledore completely, and Harry did intervene afterwards.

100% agree with you here

Exactly! Harry was basically just standing there doing nothing while the man he respected the most was fighting an army of Death Eaters. So unlike his character. Compare that to the Order of the Phoenix where he joins Sirius even when Sirius asks him to stay away.

If Dumbledore did not Stun Harry, the actual scene would have been: “Severus... Please...” *Harry runs and grabs Draco, Bellatrix and Snape* Dumbledore thinking: _boy let me die it is a part of the plan stupid boy_ *Snape smacks Harry at the back of his head.* Harry: _Stupefy!_ *Bellatrix is stunned.* Draco cries: _Get away, Potter!_ *Snape pushes Harry to the floor and:* Snape says: _Stupefy!_ *Harry is Stunned, and he watches Snape and Draco get closer to Dumbledore, sobbing.* Snape: _Avada Kedavra!_ Dumbledore thinking: _that’s better. At least I will rest in peace and the plan will succeed._ Harry: _bruh Dumbledore so dumb_

@@crappymcdick but that's not how the book was written.....

The only importance it has in the film is that it helps Harry win Felix Felicis from Slughorn and it teaches him a spell that almost kills Malfoy. It definitely is BS that it hardly has any uses in this film. After all, it IS called "Harry Potter and the HALF BLOOD PRINCE". This movie should have been called "Harry Potter and the Sixth Year at Hogwarts" instead due to the lack of the book.

@@elephant35e Or Harry Potter and the Series of Silly Romances!

It’s mentioned way more than twice lol. I’m the movie alone hermione mentions it more than twice. You guys are way to critical.

@@elephant35e you say that as if we ever saw the goblet of fire after it was used to determine the champions. Not at all saying it held as much importance as HBP book, just saying title relevance has never been an issue.

@@jonnnn7699 You're missing the point. They added several filler scenes and emphasized less important points, rather than put more focus on the serious aspects of the book. Like the person said earlier, Harry took that potions book everywhere he went and was obsessed with it. It should have been more in the front, rather than a background point. Movieflame mentioned places where they could have saved time to add in more important information. No one is saying to put everything in, just change some things around.

I still think it works well in the adaptation

I'm hoping to see a tv adaptation at some point in my lifetime

Season 1 should be both the philosopher's stone and the chamber of secrets though. Both books are quite short and it could take a couple years between each season so it would ensure that the actors don't get tired of their roles and want to quit. 8/9 1 hour episodes each season for 6 seasons would be a good length.

I think an animated series would work best because recasting is not as big of an issue, it’s easier to do magical special effects and the actors/production wouldn’t be compared to the films continually.

@@stephaniem6482 there won’t be. Agree with original commenter. I personally would have liked 4, 5, and 6 and not just 7 to be two movies each.

Yeah the structure of the books is just better suited to a series, with how each of them covers one school year. I even thought that back when the movies were first coming out.

They left out almost every interesting aspect about him, including his entire character. His lust for power, fear of death (the main motivation for him to create the horucruxes in the first place), him being a loner and despising friendship as a concept. Voldemort was interesting in the way that he was the dark reflection of Harry in many ways, while the movies boiled that down to "Yeah, he's the bad guy who hates muggles because why not, and he has horuxuses, oh, don't you see how bad he is?". Thanks, Daivid Yates and Steve Kloves, for turning one of the coolest and well written villains ever into a meme.

Yeah, and in the 6th book before: _Dunderbore: I don't think you need your wand, Harry._ _Harry: Why not Professor?_ _Dunderbore: _*_You're with me._*

The cinematography was amazing probably the best of all Harry Potter films alongside with prisoner of Azkaban and deathly hallows part 2 ,also the soundtrack was very beautiful and relaxing.

Mince Pie Scene Ginny: Do you trust me? Harry: Did you Wash your Hands??

@@Xehanort10 agree 100%

If the director read the books carefully, it was clear from book 1 that Harry always thought of himself as the third wheel. From book 3 he had an idea what was happening between the other two , in book 4 he was SURE that Ron was in love , in book 6 he was sure Hermione was in love as well and that Ron was making a mistake. In book 7 Harry was like " Yo , stop making out when everything around is burning "🤣 Until movie 3 we got the right chemistry between Ron and Hermione and then the romance part went downhill because the directors didn't pay much attention .

I doubt this. The last book was released while Order of the Phoenix was in post production, so they knew well in advance of where the characters would end up. I’ve actually read the original shooting script for OTP and it included a very over-the-top scene of Ron saving Hermione in the Ministry. While I’m glad they cut it because it was weird and irritating, it did show that they were attempting to develop Ron and Hermione’s relationship.

@@keeganmclean2017 Yeah, but realize, that script was written by Michael Goldenberg, who was at least attempting to steer the characters back to how they were in the books. Steve Kloves, on the other hand...

@@stefan4159 true, Steve Kloves had his own agenda

So true! It looks so murky and like someone sapped all the contrast out of the picture. It’s just like a big grey/brown haze. The picture was still dark in GoF and OoTP but they also had a much sharper contrast. Here it’s just so hazy and ugly looking…

I completely agree. I would love to see someone edit the film with better colouring. The colours are so hideous not to mention it looks like there's a strange fuzzy filter over everything. It's so hard to watch

The original cut was way too dark and the studio asked them to turn it up because it was difficult to see and they still came out with this

I’ve always realised how this particular movie looks so saturated and orange sometimes. It look too unnatural and odd, even for a magical environment.

it didn't even set the mood it was going for, it just looked drab and lifeless

I read the book after I watched the movie, but I know exactly what you mean. Harry's very outspoken and even hot-headed sometimes. He says and does things that he feels is right without thinking about what other people will say.

They went for funny and didn’t even include the funniest part in the series, and it would have shown more of the half blood princes book too, which was when Snape asked to see Harrys school books and he took Ron‘a copy of advanced potions making which had roonil wazlib written in it because of Fred and George’s dodgy autocorrect (for want of better term) quill

The Sassy Boy Who Lived

Gacha Zara Girl wait did they left that line our? wait i swear ive heard it in the movie

Yes They unfortunately left out that holy line 😭

Ya my only problem with the movies is they expect most people to have read the book. So they don’t think they have to explain a lot of things

Harry Potterhead ya I guess but I do really like the movies tho

I hate it because in the books not even they aren't a couple, they are not even talking to each other... There is this whole thing going on with them, Lupin going on dangerous missions to stay away from Tonks, and Tonks being so depressed that she looses her metamorphmagus powers, and het patronus change and many other things...One of the best "scene" in the books when Harry asks Lupin about hoe could her patronus change, and Remus and Molly are just like "shit" 😂 Oh and don't forget the scene when everyone is around Bill after he was bitten by Greyback, and Tonks tells Remus that she loves him, and even McGonagall ships them, that is such a powerful scene. (And when Fleur sais she is pretty enough for both og them, that is superior) I really loved these in the books and I'm so mad that they totally left it out from the movie. They should have not include that many scene with Lavender and the awkward Hinny stuff, In my opinion Tonks and Lupin, and Bill and Fluer are a lot more interesting

@@Jake0666 that's bc when they were coming out, pretty much all of the fans would have read the books

Hxney_pxt no u would be surprised how many people watched the movies without reading the books

Xehanort10 Not only that, but Bellatrix wasn’t present during the battle of the astrononomy tower in the book. She was only present in the at the beginnning of book 6.

They enter Hogwarts through the vanishing cabinet and so were inside before anyone could do anything about it.

@Frogs and Cats true but thats in the film as well. Remember the scene where Draco puts an apple in the cabinet and it comes back with a bite out of it.

I dont now how to feel im almost crying from sadness and laughing

🤣🤣

It’s serious! Not sirius! Sirius is a name.

Je trouve que c'était une très bonne idée d'abandonner les funérailles de Dumbledore. Le film nous a offert une scène très émouvante avec tous les personnages qui lèvent leur baguette en signe de résistance à la montée en puissance de voldemort. Je trouve que ça a été un très bel hommage rendu à Dumbledore. En plus, l'enterrement de Dumbledore aurait engendré la sollicitation d'une quantité astronomique de personnages secondaires pour une seule scène

So true, and by the way I visited your channel and you said to leave feedback in that video, but comments are turned off so I think u gotta post a community tab or something as a way of people getting in contact with you, that's just a suggestion :)

Wasn't he wearing a purple suit? There'd be some novelty in seeing Michael Gambon dressed like the Joker.

Andrew Lance yep and had ginger hair

Joker Dumbledore walks in and just kills young Tom Riddle Directed by George Lucas

Learn A Lot With Grace it was funky, but it didn't... amazed. The purple was kinda dead and the filter didn't helped

She also says that this is the proof her husband is brave which is so cute

I was actually touched by that in the book. In the goblet of fire, I didn't like fleur and I thought she was a brat and everything. But when she married Bill and she said, she'd love him no matter how he looks after he got attacked, I took my thoughts back,because I kinda didn't expect that from her. I think we all got her wrong first.

This line is weird but at the same time cool

I mean, yes, the writers are definitely to blame; they really did not build up the relationship in any way and in the movies it just comes out of nowhere and it's not explored at all Ginny is also underdeveloped as a character in the movies and that is the fault of the writes BUT also Bonnie and Dan really have no chemistry, absolutely none whatsoever It still could've worked somehow even with the little that they were given if they had some decent chemistry but they really done have any Their scenes were pretty awkward to watch; I'm not saying Bonnie is necessarily a bad actress but good acting and chemistry were definitely abscent and I can't help but think that maybe they should've replaced her with another actress that was more compatible and had more chemistry with Radcliffe to make it feel at least a bit more natural Harry and Cho felt very natural in the movies and the actors had some great chemistry together, you could feel some romantic tension and the relationship was pretty believable and it's not like they had more scenes together than Dan and Bonnie I guess you could say that their scenes were better written sure, but they were also better acted and there was more natural chemistry between the actors

@@nesirosern8596 ya i do agree to an extent

Don't you think you're making a big deal of this. Besides acting awkward around someone you like is completely normal.

@brysontipton1893 ya, it's normal, but book ginny, in HBP, isn't like that. That's her character development. She became confident and started to out of her shell. That awkward phase was before she started dating other people

I think the fact that Dumbledore _trusts_ Harry not to jeopardize anything is better than forcing him to do that, so I don't think that's a problem.

Also, the movies fucking ruined the Snape scene and the sorprise of the final reveal about his character. Having him appear and SEE and reasure Harry was so dumb. It gave away that he wasn't really working with the bad side. My family saw the movie and went "oh, so he is just pretending to be bad right?". So stupid.

​@@althealligator1467 Harrys character wouldn't allow 5 death eaters to face an injured dumbeldore

@@althealligator1467 he would never EVER just watch Dumbledore die if he could help it

@@manuellarodrigues4386 Except he would if Dumbledore asked him to, probably. Not really any way to know, since it's the only instance of its kind in the story. He's brave, not stupid.

I knew for sure at the end of Order of the Phoenix, when he wanted Ginny's company on the train ride home and pretty much yearned for her company now he found out how much of an amazing person she was. Though the love potion which revealed he smelt her scent only set that in stone

Personally I didn't like the Harry/Ginny love story in either the book or the movies. But at least in the book you didn't have to witness the painful awkwardness of each encounter!

@@cocokai9661 but it wasn't awkward in the books they were good friends, they talked and acted normal and comfortable around each other. When Harry was having his internal conflict about dating her he was still normal. Their relationship only gets branded as awkward because of the movies

@@damienchristopher5652 I disagree. I think the books were also awkward and unconvincing. It's true the books were better than the movies, but they still weren't good when it came to any of the romances. While we're told that Harry and Ginny interact, we actually see very little of it. Harry spends most of his time with Hermione. The most meaningful interactions are with Hermione. In fact, Harry has more interactions and more meaningful interactions with Luna than he does with Ginny. JKR simply doesn't do romance well. But yes, the movies took the Ginny/Harry thing to a whole new level of awfulness!

@@cocokai9661 yes, he's had more meaningful interactions with Luna (which I don't believe is true) and Hermoine for example, but that doesn't mean anything about the romance (as good or bad as you believe it is). Just because they've shared meaningful experiences doesn't automatically qualify them to date, Ginny can comfort Harry in ways no one can (e.g in Order of the Phoenix, when he's talking to Ginny his anger dies down very fast, whereas it takes Hermoine much longer to calm him down). Most of the meaningful interactions with Hermoine Ron's also there. Luna sees him as just a friend, and it's hinted from book 5 that Harry was having romantic feelings towards Ginny. I still think Ginny was the right call, but I do agree Harry Potter's not an example of good romance, but it's still okay. I'll always think that Harry and Ginny was a good couple

Would it be better if Bonnie played Hermione and Emma for Ginny instead?

@@MaiNguyen-rn7zxthat is something that cannot be answered because in real life beauty is a very subjective thing, and Emma shot to fame over her constant screen time, for example, me personally never understood the public fascination with Emma Watson, she was attractive sure but not the bombshell a lot of my friends said it was at the time, to begin with, Hermione in the books was never considered attractive, that's why nobody ever simp for her the way Ginny was in the books, that's why everyone was impressed with her appearance in the goblet of fire's book version of the yule ball, and that's why it took to long for Ron to realize his feelings for her, she was essentially the ugly duckling of HP, this all boils down to the fact that this is one of the disadvantages of live-action, you can only go so far trying to cast the perfect fit for a fictional character, animation doesn't have that problem you can follow the character design to the letter by the book description, hence why I think that if they ever reboot the films, animation would be a better choice.

@@omarreyes7626 Yeah, I never quite got the infatuation/attraction towards Emma. In all honesty, I find her to be quite average.

Mreffs101 I’ve never read the books (I know I’m a disgrace). But I did know what was going on in the last 2 movies. Though I think that was due to the fact that my older brother has read the books, so he probably explained it to me at some point while watching.

Ive watched it with a few people who hadn't read the books and they had no fucking idea what was going on and it only gets worse when they watch the 7th film

i have only watched the movies, plan on getting the books when i save up enough money, and i only worked it out by piecing together what slughorn had told Tom Riddle in his memories and also assuming horcruxes worked like the 'one ring' from LOTR

@@Dinodawson42 the books are totally worth it, trust me.

The only good thing they did in comparison to the books was the word ‘Horcrux’s reveal.. In the book, you come across the word Horcrux but Dumbledore tells Harry to find the meaning of it and what Slughorn truly spoke with Tom.. In the movie, the word itself is revealed along with the truth, making Dumbledore’s reaction perfect for it.. If he knew it was a Horcrux, he’d have never wore Tom’s mother’s ring aka the Resurrection Stone.. Also, in Deathly Hallows Part 1, there is a deleted scene where Harry discusses with Hermione the theory behind Voldemort’s selection of Horcruxes, something which was left out from movie 6, and sadly from Part 1 as well..

Totally agree! They wanted a scene to show how destructive and heartless the death eaters are, but they already did that so it was just a bad scene that made no sense

That could’ve been a scene for Rufus Scrimgeour and Percy Weasley instead. It would’ve caused tensions for Harry’s annoyance for Rufus and the Weasley’s tension with Percy.

Because its edgy 😂

That was OoTP

That was in order of Phoenix I’m pretty sure

@@sgsalmon5100 yh right after arthur had been attacked by nagini

That was in Order of the Phoenix anyway.

THIS! One of the main reasons why I loved the books more than the movies. I mean, I loved the film adaptations from 1 to 4, but starting from the 5th one, I just stopped watching. Ironically, the 5th book was my most favorite out of all the HP books.

@@BlazeStar2095 @Mhel Lopez i love the 5th book too. At least i did, haven't reread hp book for some years. Sirius was less pleasant than before. But i still put it within understandable range, he did spend all these years locked up. But what harm is there to use polyjuice potion or transfiguration to change his appearance and go outside? Whats dangerous about that? Dumbledore can be....unreasonable sometimes. Well, padfoot still my favorite, and first time i read the book as a kid and saw he died i was really upset. Didnt want to believe it. Love all the drama involving umbridge. She's the most loathsome character for me in hp franchise, much more than voldemort. Secret rebel group is exciting. And the pranks from the whole school amused me to no end. And dumbledore...dumbledore still wears bows on his beard, blue, pink, shiny robes with stars or any number of cute things. But with our old and more book accurate professor passed away, new professor is much less colorful. The tone for the entire character changed. It suits the darker tone for later movies...but well. If dumbledore was like the 3rd year one when i start as a 1st year, i probably wouldnt think him wise or genius, or as magical. His eyes dont twinkle anymore. Sigh. Wanted to see how people think of dumbledore when he continued to be like the first two films and thus like in the book. Mr. Harris played him to be so likable. Maybe there wouldnt be so many dumbledore dark manipulator fanfic then. Haha.

Same. She isnt my favourite, but I cant blame Lupin wanting better for her. I ship them, but it's like she deserves heaven

Fellow potterhead and army!

Yes! I really liked the thing with Ginny's perfume, that was a very well-executed hint, and true to life, I thought. Our sense of smell is our most primal, and has the most direct connection to our brains.

Sorry, I'm a big fan of romance and I say that with no shame! JKR is horrible at writing romance. One of the worst. While there were a few hints, it's true, we the readers saw virtually no interaction. So the romance and attraction came suddenly and with no real explanation. We see a real relationship between Harry and Hermione and even with Harry and Luna, but we're simply told that there's interaction between Harry and Ginny. Their scenes together are flat and dull. Harry/Hermione, and Harry/Luna have some really deep and moving scenes. So the whole Ginny/Harry thing is just boring and not particularly believable. I think JKR just wanted a way to make Harry a part of the Weasley family and Ginny was a convenient ploy to do so.

@@cocokai9661 Well, that is the thing. She isn't a romantic writer. She doesn't write such stories. But it's a completely different world she had created. So, she defo had to put romance into it. Not everyone can write what she wrote. So, it's not a bad thing. And if you don't like it, then it doesn't necessarily mean that noone else does. Hermione and Harry have an amazing chemistry but many people like their friendship better. It just shows how a male and a female can be so close and yet be just friends and that's just great on jk's behalf. I absolutely love that concept. You can like them all you want. It's your opinion. I just put mine. I absolutely love Harry and ginny together. I kinda knew from the first movie that they were gonna be together. Dk, just had that intuition.

Harry on Felix is just like combining coke, xtc and a bit of weed hahah (not really recommended though, watch your heartrate xD)

Crack don't make you lucky. The opposite if anything.

100% agree

i agreeeeeeee

I honestly dont want them to remake the movies, cause I only think of as Daniel Radcliffe as harry, like i wouldnt be able to replace him or all the other actors. It would be nice to have something new but honestly, I would be sooo confused. I dont think anything else can compare to the og hp series....

@Olaf the Snowman very true, u made a good point whoever im torn, on the one hand i want a new harry potter film to watch but also i donyt rlly want them remade, like maybe they could make a marauders back story or dumbledores childhood movie, or an actual continuation to the series cause I DO NOT LIKE THE CURSED CHILD and i want a good movie made like all of those i think would do rlly well in the fandom, so i think thats a very good idea to like make films like that instead of remake!

This explains why I see so many people saying that Ginny was a flat character and that Harry should've ended up with Hermione. Those people presumably only watched the movies, and only draw assumptions from movie Ginny.

You just had an argument with yourself

I never figured out who’s fault it was since Ginny in the movies never had any of the personality that she had in the books. How many of her best lines did they even use in the movies? In the books, she was rebellious and funny, I never got that at all from the movies.

Actually I think Steve Kloves is as much if not more to blame since he wrote all but one of the scripts. Ginny's better portrayal in OOTP was down to Michael Goldenberg.

Ten points from Gryffindor!!

@Alfie Bell for real he goes "remember the half blood Prince thing that happened 8 months ago in your first lesson of the year? Yeah that's me" expect I'd shrug in that situation, and be more pissed off that bellatrix is screeching probably

They could have just taken it out and named the movie something else. At this point, with how little it is addressed, it has no significance on the plot or Snape's arc within the rest of the movies.

They missed the mark on Snape's rage as well. When Harry calls him a coward and Snape loses his patience.

I agree, the buildup to Snape's reveal as the Half Blood Prince is almost non existent in the movie. In the book, Snape orders Harry to show him all of his school books when he catches him using Sectumsempra on Draco. This also sets up how Harry found Ravenclaw's diadem in the Room of Requirement, since he saw it as he went to hide the Half Blood Prince's book (unlike how Ginny hid the book for him and they kissed in the Room of Requirement). Then of course Harry uses Ron's potions book as a decoy, but Snape obviously knows Harry's not telling the truth. Because of that, plus what Harry did go Draco, Snape gives him detention every Saturday for the rest of term, making it so Harry couldn't participate in the Quidditch final.

@Alfie Bell he tells him it like it is a big deal though. And there is build up too. how it was told is fine

I mean the movies don't mention why he stayed at the Dursleys but I mean really he could have stayed at the burrow, I mean a SUBBWAY STATION???

Yeah, I don't think he was actually living there. That's a weird take in the video. I've always just assumed he was being "reckless" because he's most protected when staying at the Dursleys, and Harry couldn't handle just sitting around.

@@LoveStallion Movies are movies though it was mentioned in the movies

Why would he choose to stay at the subway? To keep the dursleys safe?

@Robert Shajari No he said he spent the whole summer their

Potter Princess Ginny is one year younger than Ron and the youngest sibling

Potter Princess now that you have pointed this out...I kinda feel the same 😬

@@purpleunicorn2459 And Ginny would probably be super jealous of you having big sisters :D

Potter Princess Fred and George were 20, she was 16. Only seventh years were allowed to stay to fight. Because her whole family, the order, and basically everyone she cared about was there, she was allowed to stay but she had to be in the great hall because while everyone else have already become experienced adults, she’s not on that level yet. Like imagine Harry even fighting in the battle of hogwarts when he was 16. It’s quite a much bigger leap. War is about sacrifice, in order to protect the ones you love you have to be willing to put everything in the line. This was also the battle of hogwarts, something that the outcome would change the entire world for better or for worse for a very, very, very, long time.

a little? A LITTLE?!?!?

It's also one of my favorites if not my favorite. The cinematography is one of the best in the series (next to PoA), the soundtrack, while very sleek, works very well for me and has a few amazing tracks. We get some standout performances from some of the actors too. These reasons and the resulting ambiance make me come back to the movie time and time again. I think it's quite absurd to judge a movie mainly by its fidelity to the source material and ignore so many other aspects. I guess there's different priorities for people when watching movies.

@@the_bottomfragger I watched it when I hadnt read the books and I just walked out confused by what this story is about. Is it a badly written rom com? Why is Harry and Ginny's romance(?) so awkward? What is the significance of the Half Blood Prince? I mean the film is named after him and snape makes it sound like a big reveal but it wasnt built up by the film, Why did they decide to hide Harry at the Burrow in the next film and host a wedding there when it was attacked in thus film?! Then I read the books and realized that whoever made this film did not understand the story and what it was about. It is foremost the origin of Voldemort and where his evil stems from and what makes Harry the best weapon against him. Harry was conceived and protected by love while Voldemort was conceived through the opposite (literally).

And the comedy wasn't funny or appropriate. If you're going to do something like that you have to do it right and David Yates had no idea how to do that. As Morgan pointed out they totally ruined the suspense of Ron's poisoning for one thing by adding that stupid crack of his.

She was my last favourite character in the books. To much of a Mary Sue and very annoying in Half blood Prince.

@@konanxhidan3202 Totally agree! Ginny is the most Mary Sue character I've seen!

Jean Costa that’s true she is perfect she should have at least one flaw

I see your point. Can't say it annoyed me in the books but I do agree she could've been less perfect.

Konan x Hidan the actor was worse in my opinion

Hahaha I love that part

hahaha ecks dee so funni

Chris Evans Lily Evans??????

Speaking of Chris Evans. The shoelace scene is as terrible as Cap kissing Sharon after his girlfriend funeral scene.

Lmao what? 😂

EXACTLYYYY

I remember watching all of the films after I read the books and was i was so confused with that scene!

I am only 12 so I actually watched the movies before but since I've read the books the movies seem so disappointing

Also the part where Bellatrix just goes around shouting ik killed sirius is just trash

@@fancy_rattus yo same! I was like, 'Hey! That wasnt in the book and that doesnt make sense!

I agree with you so much. This movie is the one movie i havent rewatched more than thrice

That, and the lack of color in the spell casting (and complete lack of creativity). The first three (and even #4) had bright colors in the magic, even when the scenes were tonally dark. Everything is so grey in the later movies. Even the candles in the Great Hall don't look like candles because they're so muted. In the last movie, there's a triumphant moment where McGonigal fights Snape and lights the candles back up. But it's so underwhelming because the room only lights up maybe 5%. The clothes, the magic... it's all lifeless.

Davis Parks I think it’s to show a much grimmer nature. At first, it’s all bright because the magical world is something special but over time, everything is revealed to be less glamorous. Besides, I don’t think Harry would do well in deep forests wearing full wizarding attire with long robes.

@@Chan-qk9eh But you can do dark with color. Look at Lord of the Rings. All three of them are dark movies but they're so vibrant and magical. Heck, even the end of Chamber of Secrets is dark and that scene is also really vibrant and magical. The last 4 movies are so grey and aesthetically boring. They strip away what's so special about the book series.

Davis Parks never saw lotr I guess. But dark color can be used smartly. Coming from the point of view of an artist, if you want the light to be noticed, best bet is to start off with a black or grey and then add in your highlights. So the movies could’ve been a darker color but then have moments when it’s a bit lightened to bring focus to this happiness inside the dark.

@@sivad1025 POA had the best use of color imo, while it had a dark and grim look it still managed to retain a sort of vibrancy mainly in how they used contrasting colors, the later movies took the wrong lessons and made it look dark but at the same time made everything look flat and dull. Harry potter lost that "magical" quality once david yates took over, he tried to make everything seem more "realistic" but really he just made it more boring. I wish they got more directors like Cuaron to handle the HP movies. Yates in no way did a terrible job but his movies just ranged from good to ok.

The actors raved about each of the directors. I think the writing was the worst thing that happened between the books and movies. Jk needed to put her foot down a lot more!

Agree

🤣🤣🤣

i quite like that they chose this bridge, as it shows how ruthless the death eaters were

Only the first 2/3 really seem to be set in 1990s, from 4 on they are just in the year they were filmed

Even though it takes place in 1997 I think they choose the Millennium Bridge because of how the real world was changing.

Hey, genius...the movies aren't set in the 90s like the books are. Just look at the fashion and the music that is used in the movies

Teton Gerard Jai Hoffman Voldemort to your comment: *YES SEE MY FACE. SEE MY FACE!*

@@phatwetshit4448 😂😂

so your father in law kissed you?

This man! This scene made the book for me, on top of that they did Ginny no justice in the movie series.

How they've written Ron's character might have SOMETHING to do with this. This scene gave him depth and movie Ron was a simple goofball.

Yea no one cares

@@ZielonaPastela The movies did Ron so dirty I hate hate the very end of this movie not only did they cut Dumbledores funeral, but they have Hermione and Harry talking while Ron just sits way in the back and says nothing. Hermione is like Harry he knows about and Ginny and it's fine whatever we will be with you. It's just a Harry and Hermione scene instead of a trio scene Ron isn't even in most of the shots because he so far away uuugghh I'm mad even thinking about it.

Same

My biggest gripe is how the potion Dumbledore drinks doesn't sufficiently weaken him the way book portrayed it did... he seems almost normal when coming out of the cave and in the Astronomy tower. He's supposed to be severely weakened, and uses the last of his strength to burn the Inferi and scoop up the locket.

All David Yates movies look like this. It's to make it dark and gritty

Talking about filter, I hated the colours in prisoners of azkaban

Oh wow I thought the color and the tone of the movie is what made it good and kinda unique. But I can understand your view.

Ginny was just done dirty in the movies. She had no personality, they never showed her n harrys relationship and she was barely on screen. They focused to much on Harry becoming a wizard rather than balancing his personal life and wizardry

Would u be worried if u were with Harry?

Nah, he is quite smart and brave😁 I trust Dumbledore!

Especially when another deleted scene of Harry heading up to Dumbledore in the astronomy tower has Harry say to Ron and Hermione _"I don't need luck, I'll be with Dumbledore"_

My favriote line 🥺

@@hams2410 well I DONT

Which I my opinion just made Ron and Hermione an awkward couple (I still dont ship harry and Hermione). Especially that awkward dance scene between harry and Hermione!

Even rowling agrees that Harry and Hermione would've been the better couple

@@fancy_rattus yeah I never saw the romance between them in the movies. And Harry/Hermione looked better on screen together, the dance while awkward was something that hinted at a relationship between them that was entirely misleading. Plus as i said in my first message, emma and daniel had great chemistry the entire series

SpiriT -PUBG M She said a lot of things AFTER. I wish she can just shut the fuck up and stop making things up. Anything that is unsaid in the books are left for readers’ own imagination and she’s ruining it for so many

@@greetingsearth387 I know that (half blood prince ) but you need to use pottermore and follow interviews She clearly states in one that Harry and Hermione would've been the better couple

On Syfy...???
