Welcome to Harry Potter Theory. Today we're discussing WHAT IF Dudley Dursley, Harry Potter's volatile cousin, had turned out to be a wizard too? Now, although the mere idea of this what if scenario might have you immediately spewing profanities my way, you must admit that the chance that Dudley might have possessed some magical talent is not all that far-fetched of an idea. Why is that you may ask? Well, to start with, it's common knowledge that plenty of witches and wizards are born into Muggle families in which no other known relatives possess the ability to perform magic. Which, of course, brings us to my second point: this is the exact situation Lily Evans, Harry's mum, found herself in. As you likely well know, Lily's family was comprised entirely of Muggles, including her sister, Petunia, Dudley's mum. And although in adulthood, Petunia showed nothing but disdain for her sister's magical talents, even going so far as to call her a freak, we know from flashbacks of the girls' childhood that Petunia actually rather envied Lily's abilities and had wished to attend Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry herself. In fact, as a child, she even sent a letter requesting admission to Professor Dumbledore. Sadly – yet very understandably – Petunia was gently let down by Dumbledore who could not allow admission of a Muggle to the school. Unfortunately, this only seemed to spurn her jealousy of Lily into blatant hatred and resentment. But alas...I digress...

Welcome to Harry Potter Theory. Today, we’re going to be discussing WHY witches and wizards in attendance at the Quidditch World Cup RAN AWAY from the invading Death Eaters- rather than stay and fight. Why weren’t the death eaters STOPPED? Yes, some did stay and fight, but of the vast numbers that attended, only an infinitesimal number stayed. What I wonder is, why? The International Quidditch World Cup was THE premier Quidditch contest- hosted every four years since it’s very first contest in the year 1473. The Quidditch World Cup allowed Quidditch players from all over the globe to find glory for their respective countries- as it represented the pinnacle of Quidditch competition.  For this reason, it was exceedingly popular, with witches and wizards travelling from all over the globe to support their nation’s quidditch team. The result? More than a few boatloads of witches and wizards. We’re first introduced to this spectacular event in the Goblet of Fire.

Welcome to Harry Potter Theory. Today we're discussing how Slytherin's GIGANTIC Basilisk survived inside of the teeny tiny Chamber of Secrets for 1000+ years. Hogwarts is big, but not THAT big, and the Chamber (though extraordinary) doesn’t seem nearly big enough to accommodate a 50 foot long serpent. We’re first introduced to the Basilisk - which was the horrific creation of Hogwarts founder Salazar Slytherin, in the Chamber of Secrets. Basilisks are enormous serpentine creatures, the existence of which can be attributed to their original twisted creator, a dark wizard by the name of Herpo the Foul. A common misconception is that SLYTHERIN created the first basilisk, where in reality he merely created his own- the same one that resides within Hogwarts’ secret chamber.

Welcome to Harry Potter Theory. Tell me, if you lived in the wizarding world, what type of job would you want? Some of you might have thought about this question a time or two already.  Perhaps you want to be an auror at the Ministry of Magic?  Or a professor, at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. You might think those are great choices, but they’re actually a bit limited.   There are hundreds of jobs to choose from in the wizarding world, and today, we’re going to take a look at a handful of some of the most interesting ones: from Troll Trainer to Magical Creature Breeder, and more. Let's get 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.

Welcome to Harry Potter Theory. Today we're discussing the CREATION of the Marauder's Map. The Marauders' Map was one of the most important tools that Harry Potter used to fight against Voldemort's forces. It helped him discover Peter Pettigrew's true identity, Barty Crouch Jr. 's lies, and kept him one step ahead of Professor Snape. But have you ever wondered how the map was created? -And how it was directly related to Potter's father, James? Today, we're going to answer those questions, and more, as we look at the history of the Marauder's Map.

Welcome to Harry Potter Theory. Today we're discussing Hogwarts Legacy content, as over the past few months we've been given snippet after snippet of what's come to in the upcoming game. The planned release date for the game is December 2022, but with how many times it's been postponed so far it's really hard to say. If you aren't privy to Hogwarts Legacy, it's a new open-world role-playing Harry Potter themed game, where we (the player) embark on a journey in to the wizarding world. We're put in the drivers seat, and we can effectively interact with the wizarding world however we want. The game takes place in the late 1800s, over 100+ years before Harry ever steps foot through the doors of Hogwarts, but that doesn't mean we aren't going to come across familiar faces, places and the focus of this video- CREATURES. Today I'm going to be discussing 15 CONFIRMED creatures that will appear in some way in the new Hogwarts Legacy game. Let's dive in to it.

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.
