Harry Potter 20th Anniversary: Return to Hogwarts

I don't understand why the reboot is doing a repeat of Harry Potter. Like why not do a series of movies of Harry Hermione and Ron's kids go to Hogwarts. Or if not that, do it where we see Harry's parents as students with Snape and others as students. Idk I just don't think we need a repeat of the movies. They are perfect as they are.

I remember watching all the movies when I was 7 years old except for the last 2 cause it never aired on TV when it first came out (which was in 2007) every year, it felt like I was growing up with them even though Daniel, Emma and Rupert were 10 years older then me, I didn't exactly grew up with them but I grew up watching them. I only just watched the last 2 a few years back and I loved it. I can relate to what Daniel said to Helena, what a woman and an incredible actor. I can also relate to Harry since I had to grow up without my parents, they weren't dead, they just weren't apart of my life and home life wasn't the best so school was a sort of escape from that, so I feel like there's a kind of magic with that. Rest in peace Alan Rickman, Maggie Smith, Robbie Coltrane, Michael Gambon, Richard Harris, they will forever live on in our hearts.

Correct. "Killing the previous owner" was Tom's mistaken interpretation of how a wand can change "rightful" owners... "The wand chooses the wizard". If the wizard is rightfully defeated... the wand will (ALMOST always.... but never "always") accept the new owner as being "worthy" of the wands loyalty... The wand literally has a mind of it's own. It's loyal to the wizard it sees as it's rightful master. If it's master is defeated in a dual... then the wand sees the winner as superior to it's previous owner. Death and killing doesn't really factor into this equation. But Tom views Killing as the ultimate defeat. So naturally Tom assumes Snape is the rightful owner of the wand.... He would never Ever EVER even for one fraction of a second... Even CONSIDER Draco as superior to Dumbledore... his greatest enemy... his only true equal related to power.... So he literally can't even consider the possibility. Which turns out to be one of his (if not the ultimate) flaws.

I hope so.

I watched the 2nd and 3rd and maybe the 4th in theaters... It was amazing... Now days... I haven't seen a movie in theaters in years. My TV at home with a basic sound system adjusted to my personal preference watching movies in the dark of night is a much better experience for me. The simple ability to "go back" 5 seconds to catch a bit of dialog I didn't quite hear the first time can really change the experience... especially if that one line of dialog happened to be very important to the story. My local theater over the years flat out failed at properly adjusting the audio to spec. There were literally audience members getting up during the movie walking to the booth and telling them to change the adjustments... and they listened.. Way too quiet, then Way too loud, Then Way too much bass.. The sound quality was horrible. Theater sound is supposed to be scientifically adjusted to be "correct" not adjusted to what some random person there that day thought sounded better.... That went on for months and ruined movie theater watching for me. Now with 4K OLED and HDR home movie watching is top tier for me. (just for me).

😢😭 All legendary now for what they did here... not even counting what they all did before. I'll remember them forever.

AC10

I watched all of them... Obviously... Even speaking objectively the First Fantastic Beast movie had Amazing reviews and Box office money making... so even if the entire FB series is viewed as not as good as the original HP series... The first movie is a Major WIN.

now also a rest in peace to Maggie Smith (Prof. McGonagall), Michael Gambon (Albus Dumbledore) and Robbie Coltrane (Hagrid) 💔

PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE react to the Fantastic Beast and Where to Find Them movies!!!! theyre the prequel to Harry Potter abd YOUD LOVE THEM!!!

Monique Drewett

*shows hagrid actor* “Look at professor Moody!” haha

Reece Bensted

I do recommend taking a couple weeks before watching the fantastic beats series (set in the same world but about 100 years before Harry Potter)

One of my biggest regrets is not watching these films when they came out. Knowing how good the franchise is now. It’s kind of like marvel movies. Waiting for each film is just a different feeling. Wish I would’ve felt that.

Biglo

yeah, sadly I agree. But on the other hand, if we can get past the casting part, movies did VERY VERY VERY POOR actual book adaptation. While on its own, its magical series, compared to books it showed like 4/10th of the info/stories/events. So that is THE ONLY saving grace for them. They NEED to adapt the books. Like 1 to 1 and like 7-8 seasons of tv show.

David

The rebooted show is going to be hard-pressed to match the films simply because the casting for the films was so perfect. It really was a lightning-in-a-bottle situation. I wish WB would drop the idea for a reboot, but all they see are dollar signs.

You're definitely right that Emma is like a real-life Hermione, she's currently pursuing a PhD doctorate. If successful, she'll be referred to as Dr. Emma Watson. https://www.oxfordmail.co.uk/news/24956746.emma-watson-studying-phd-oxford-university-doctor/

EdReedFan20

It's the best part about their channel, in my opinion lol

Geneva Cervantez

Fantastic Beasts movies still happening? And the show when it comes out? Fingers crossed for both.

Coelacanth

just so you know, snape did not take draco's wand draco, disarmed dumbledore and then so nape killed him, but killing the previous owner does not give you the wand disarming them and it choosing on to accept a new owner. And then, when Harry disarmed Draco at malfoy manor, it then belonged to harry. Also interesting tidbit, and kind of a giveaway of the character in the very beginning if you are he understood the meaning of his name... Draco Malfoy it literally translates to "unfaithful serpent"

Michael Shelton

I tried my best not to watch this for three years because I knew I would remember my childhood and miss the old days and ruin my mental health. I thought it would be easier to watch it with you but it wasn't. Seeing Emma, ​​Dan and Rupert turn almost 40 made me think about how short life is and how we should appreciate every little moment.

Hakan Kartal

no lie though

Prisoner of Azkaban is my favourite of the series too. The same director Alfonso Cuaron directed my number 2 movie of all time A Little Princess. VInce get Hogwarts Legacy on PS5! Shoshana get the first book! Great journey! Hogwarts is always open!

Martin

I can't believe they made a reunion feel like a 9th movie and basically made it an essential watch for all reactors

Adam Beiter

Hopefully y’all can check out the main deleted scenes especially from the final 2 films because they really did a disservice cutting them for time 😢

Jack's World

Its so sad how the actors for both Dumbledores, Snape, McGonagall, Hagrid and many more have all passed by now :(

LilLeaf

Because she has different opinions than you do? That’s odd.

Kobie Wan

SlipS_Tiger

Jose Madrid

Paulo

A lot of Harry Potter actors have passed away. It’s very sad but they all truly made the Harry Potter movies so memorable! They’ll never be forgotten!

Jade

You just can’t help but love the relationship between Gary Oldman and Daniel Radcliffe, and it’s funny years ago Tom Felton explained how the whole cast was jealous of their relationship in real life 🥹
