Why Do Elves SERVE Wizardkind If They’re so Powerful? (3 THEORIES) - Harry Potter Theory

Welcome to Harry Potter Theory. Today we're looking at casting decisions made for the Harry Potter films. Now, I thought that the casting in Harry Potter was great- across pretty much all of the films, for pretty much all of the roles. There wasn't a single role where I felt that that the actor themself took away from the character- however there were of course some instances in which the film portrayal of the character didn't exactly fit with the book. I.e Bonnie Wright with Ginnie.- And while I think that the Harry Potter films did a fantastic job overall, I can't quite say the same for the Fantastic Beasts films, at least the ones we've had so far- they weren't bad, but definitely not as good as Harry Potter.

Welcome to Harry Potter Theory. Today, we're going to be discussing Harry Potter characters (from the books) that were that LEFT OUT of the movies. I feel like you can't really criticize the Harry Potter films THAT much. Unless the filmmakers decided to convert the films into a tv series, and devote 20 hours to each book, there isn't really anything they could do to make these amazing movies any better. It's never an easy feat to translate novels to the silver screen, but somehow, Harry Potter successfully pulled it off. - But... in the process, the filmmakers were forced to shave a few of our favorite characters from the final scripts. - And even though they had their reasons for doing so, I can't help but feel that something is missing without these incredible wizards and witches. -So, today, we're going to take a look at some of the characters who failed to make the jump to the big screen, and what they added to the Harry Potter mythos.

Welcome to Harry Potter Theory. Today we're tackling The Harry Potter films VS the Harry Potter books. Now- I was first exposed to the books, they were the first thing that I knew of Harry Potter- and I think that the general consensus among Harry Potter fans is that the books are superior- mainly because they have so much more detail- they're the original story. The films, on the other hand, took some liberties- some characters looked and even acted differently, plot points were omitted, and overall- they were just much more condensed. But, what did you expect? 6 hour long movies? I LOVE the Harry Potter films- I think they're great, and while the books did a lot of things better, and are-in my opinion-superior, it doesn't mean that there aren't things that the FILMS did better than the books. In today's video, I'm going to be touching on 20 things that I FEEL the films did better than the books. For the die hard book fans, try to watch this one with an open mind. This is going to be a mix of longer and shorter points, ranging from single lines/moments that were included/excluded- all the way to major shifts in the way that the films turned out.

Welcome to Harry Potter Theory. Today we're discussing Wormtail, Voldemort, The Potters, and the fabled Prophecy. More specifically, we're going to be addressing one very big question: WHAT IF Wormtail NEVER betrayed the Potters? When Peter Pettigrew first came to Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, it is said that the Sorting Hat took an entire five minutes before deciding to place him in Gryffindor. As we are to understand it, the Hat was wavering between Gryffindor and Slytherin, showing very early on that Pettigrew had inclinations towards the characteristics most seen in students of the green and silver House. That later became obvious after Sirius Black revealed Peter to be a traitor and Death Eater who had framed him for Pettigrew’s crimes, faked his own death, and lived as a rat for 12 years, Peter was actually quite clever, ambitious, and resourceful – the main characteristics of a Slytherin pupil. In any case, having been sorted into Gryffindor, he very obviously lacked the qualities of his fellow House mates – he was not particularly brave or courageous, and being that he was somewhat of an underdog himself, he never stood up for the “little guy.” See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Welcome to Harry Potter Theory. Today we’re discussing the Hogwarts house system- specifically, Ravenclaw house. Now, as we all know, the four houses of Hogwarts can be identified by very unique, defining characteristics- characteristics that allow these houses to stand out from the others. Hufflepuffs are known for their loyalty and hard-work, Gryffindors for their bravery, Slytherins for their cunning, and Ravenclaws for their knowledge and wisdom. Of course- I am talking in generalizations here- but if the sorting hat is anything to go by- it’s reasonably fair to summarize the houses based on the traits it preaches. The sorting hat DOES sort students in to houses, after all. See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Welcome to Harry Potter Theory. Today, we're going to be discussing the Death Eaters, specifically, what happened to them AFTER the second wizarding war and the Battle of Hogwarts. Killing Voldemort didn't solve every problem that Harry Potter and his wizarding friends faced. Because there were still plenty of Death Eaters alive and well. -And nobody knows what exactly came of them... Today, we're going to take a look at a handful of the most dangerous Death Eaters from the Battle of Hogwarts, and try our best to figure out where they ended up.

Welcome to Harry Potter Theory. Today, we're discussing the major differences between the book and film versions of..Harry Potter! Yes, that's right, today, I'll be going over the biggest variations between Harry as depicted in the novels versus the movies.- Right, so, as you may have seen over the last few weeks, I've released a couple other videos addressing the book-to-film differences of other Harry Potter characters. Specifically, I've shared my thoughts on the largest discrepancies between the novel and movie depictions of both Hermione and Ron. And if you have yet to watch them, I encourage you to check them out and share your thoughts with me in the comments! You can find both of these videos right here on the Harry Potter Theory channel.- Anyway, for those of you who have already watched the last couple videos on Hermione and Ron, you may have seen in the comments that there were quite a few requests for me to evaluate the major differences between Harry, the Chosen One himself! So, without further ado, let's dig in to it. See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
