Not too
long ago I wrote a post abut things I didn’t like in the Harry Potter
storyline, read it here:
I said
there already that I don’t want to change anything about it and I’m really
happy the way it was written, it’s J.K. Rowling’s story and plot and that’s the
way it’s supposed to be.
The movies
are a bit of a different thing though and I think a lot of you will agree with
me. We all read the books first and then watched the movies. To not make the
movies to long things were changed and scratched and yes, I’m not happy about
certain things in the movies. Here the are:
-
Harry’s and Lily’s eyes: Harry has green eyes like his
mother. This is a very important fact in the book! In the movies neither Harry
nor his mother have green eyes. NO-GO!
-
Dobby/Winky: There were no Dobby and Winky in
4th movie, which is a shame. The scenes with them in the kitchen are adorable
and on top oft hat: Dobby helps Harry with the second task.
-
Dragons in the first task: In the movie the hint to go out
with Hagrid before the first task comes from Ron, but actually it was Hagrid
asking Harry to come see him.
-
Ginny’s and Harry’s first kiss: It happened after the deciding
Quidditch game!!! Not in the room of requirements. Ginny wasn’t even helping
him hide the book oft he half blood prince.
-
Peeves, Ludo Bagman: Nowhere to be seen in the movies.
-
Time travel: In the book it’s clear that
interactions with their own selves are a no-go, but why is Hermione throwing
rocks at themselves?!
-
Potions
challenge in the philosopher’s stone: Hermione gains 50 points for Gryffindor
through that and it’s vital in the storyline, not happening in the movie
though.
-
Ron
and Hermione: So they kiss after they destroy a Horcrux in the chamber of
secrets?! In the book their relationship developed nicely.
-
The
Weasley house attack: This only happens in the 6th movies, wheer Bellatrix and
Greyback attack the Weasley house, IT’S NOT IN THE BOOK!!!!
- Harry asking Cho to the yule ball: In the movie they are in the owlery! It did NOT happen this way!
- Harry asking Cho to the yule ball: In the movie they are in the owlery! It did NOT happen this way!
There are
some more things, but these things disturbed me most! How about you, was there
something you didn’t like about the movies?
Loved to know something new about Harry Potter. I want to read all these books so much too!
ReplyDeleteThese things annoyed me too!
