From casting issues to the charge to cut out various capacity from the book for time, a lot had to be sacrificed in adjustment to accompany the movies to the big screen.
That actuality said, there were some things amiss with the blur authorization that could accept been avoided. Mistakes were fabricated that messed up assertive aspects of the movies. Thankfully, Harry Potter admirers are so determined that best accept to avoid some of the flaws throughout the series. From missing characters to over-dramatic moments, there are affluence of discrepancies to go around.
Although best adulation the Harry Potter franchise, that doesn’t alibi the faults that the films made. However, back so abounding adulation the movies, a lot of those faults are calmly forgiven. It’s accessible to absolve mistakes back you authority a abode in your affection for the alternation itself. If it was a altered blur franchise, this ability be a altered story.
Here are the 15 Things Amiss With The Harry Potter Movies That We All Accept To Ignore.
James Potter, Sirius Black, Remus Lupin, and Peter Pettigrew all fabricated up the acquaintance accumulation called the Marauders. While they ability accept been adolescent in the novels, the actors who played them as adults were abundant older. The alone acumen why this is forgiven is because the actors who portrayed them all were all able-bodied accepted and acclaimed.
Harry’s parents were acutely adolescent back he was born. That agency that all of the Marauders should accept been in their aboriginal to mid thirties by the time Harry meets all of them. That actuality said, the Harry Potter authorization admiring some of the best celebrated actors the apple had to offer.
That’s how David Thewlis, Gary Oldman, and Timothy Spall concluded up in the roles of Lupin, Sirius, and Peter Pettigrew. Let’s aloof say that, at the time, none of the actors were alike accidentally abutting to actuality the age they bare to be to fit the roles that they had been casting in.
Malfoy had his two lackeys: Crabbe and Goyle. However, Crabbe concluded up activity missing afterwards on in the series. It looked as admitting Malfory had replaced Crabbe with Blaise Zabini, a adolescent Slytherin who was added aloof than the blow of Malfoy’s gang. Crabbe was about missing in action, which went unfazed by Malfoy and Goyle.
Turns out, the amateur who portrayed Crabbe, Jamie Waylett, had some issues abaft the scenes. Afterwards actuality arrested for growing marijuana at his mom’s home and for possessing a knife, he was bedevilled to a “young offender’s institution” in England. Producers absitively that they didn’t charge the altercation that Waylett brought to the table, as the adolescent amateur had been a bit rowdy.
Waylett was arrested afresh afterwards he blanket albino from a abundance during the 2011 London riots. Admitting he had originally been arrested for accepting a petrol bomb, this was untrue. He concluded up actuality answerable to two years of bastille for both agitated ataxia and stealing.
The personality of Albus Dumbledore afflicted abundantly throughout the Harry Potter series. It is mostly due to the actuality that they had to change actors as the aboriginal Dumbledore, Richard Harris, anesthetized abroad afterwards the additional film. So, they concluded up activity with acclimatized actor, Michael Gambon, instead.
With the actors changing, writers had to assignment about some things. While Dumbledore’s personality began appearing beneath and beneath like he was in the books, it still formed for the films for the best part. However, things went decline back one arena was absolutely altered than the book.
In Harry Potter and the Beaker of Fire, Dumbledore is declared to acknowledge calm and agilely back allurement Harry about how his name concluded up in the goblet. However, in the film, this arena concluded up actuality abundant added affecting as Dumbledore basically flies above the allowance and yells at Harry back he asks him about it. It’s aloof absolutely wrong.
Ginny Weasley seems to be about everyone’s admired appearance back it comes to the Harry Potter books, but not back it comes to the movies. As to why Ginny wasn’t adapt afterwards the aboriginal blur is above best people, as the movies adapt abounding actors throughout the series.
Instead, producers kept on with Bonnie Wright alike admitting she was acutely adolescent in the aboriginal movie. They had no abstraction how she would turn out as an actress.
Sadly, Wright wasn’t able to accompany out the adorableness of Ginny Weasley on screen. Furthermore, writers didn’t advice her much. Instead of actuality fierce, independent, and artlessly incredible, she concluded up added simple, boring, and dependent. There’s a complete differences amid Ginny in the book adjoin Ginny in the films. It aloof never added up together.
In the Harry Potter novels, Harry’s eyes are declared to blooming to bout his mother’s. Anybody who knew Harry’s parents consistently told Harry, “you accept your mother’s eyes.” Both Harry’s and Lily Potter’s eyes were declared to be green, but Harry’s concluded up blue, while adolescent Lily’s concluded up actuality brown.
Originally, Daniel Radcliffe was declared to abrasion black acquaintance lenses in adjustment to about-face his artlessly dejected eyes to green. However, afterwards application them the aboriginal few days, Radcliffe couldn’t abrasion them.
It wasn’t that he was aloof affronted by the acquaintance lenses, but he was absolutely allergic to them. Producers approved to assignment through it alike admitting Radcliffe’s eyes were irritated. In the end, it became too abundant for everyone, so they gave up on the abstraction of authoritative Harry’s eyes blooming like in the book.
Peeves was absolutely declared to be in the Harry Potter films. Originally, he was activity to be portrayed by amateur Rik Mayall who anesthetized abroad in 2014. However, the arena that Mayall filmed for the cine was eventually larboard abaft on the acid allowance floor.
For such a memorable appearance to be larboard out of the Harry Potter alternation isn’t a baby thing. In fact, it was absolutely Mayall’s issues that acquired Peeves to be cut out of the films. Afterwards actuality assassin on, he started causing problems.
According to Mayall himself, “I got beatific off the set because every time I approved to do a bit of acting, all the lads who were arena the academy kids kept accepting the giggles.” He was eventually told to leave the set and was cut from the aboriginal cine because he wasn’t alive out. Producers bare to break on schedule.
After Mayall was cut from the films, they absitively to accumulate activity with the trend of assuming Peeves didn’t exist. While it ability accept been arresting for them filming Peeves’s scenes, they apparently shouldn’t accept cut out such an important character.
There’s affluence to say about the coda at the end of Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Allotment 2. Alike in the novel, it seemed off. However, the absolute arena in the final cine was alike added critical, as able-bodied as added frustrating, than in the novel.
One of the affliction genitalia of the coda arena was the old-age makeup. There wasn’t a lot of accomplishment accustomed back it came to authoritative abiding that Harry and the assemblage concluded up attractive older. They all concluded up attractive like kids with a lot of architecture on.
For a blur with a antic budget, they abiding didn’t assume to absorb that abundant authoritative abiding the architecture was acceptable enough. The actuality that this was the aftermost affair that audiences saw at the end of the authorization was not alone disappointing, but additionally infuriating to say the least.
Moaning Myrtle was meant to be alone a adolescent jailbait back she died at Hogwarts. However, casting admiral gave the role over to Shirley Henderson, an extra in her backward thirties. Of course, this makes her the oldest amateur to portray a apprentice at Hogwarts.
Since Henderson was barley bristles anxiety alpine and looked so young, they anticipation they could get abroad with application her back she came off so able-bodied as Moaning Myrtle. However, while she ability accept looked adolescent for her age, she still seemed earlier than all the added kids at Hogwarts.
It doesn’t advice that they put a ton of architecture on her. Not alone that, but now it’s alike drifter to think back on Myrtle’s amorous moves on Harry because of the massive age gap.
Neville’s activity was about actual different. In fact, this is accent in the novels back Harry and the assemblage go to St. Mungo’s Hospital for Bewitched Maladies and Injuries and discover Neville’s parents there.
This allotment of the book alternation gave so abundant angle on Neville, a appearance who became so abundantly acute and important as the books went on. Sadly, this accomplished storyline was cut from the films.
Being Neville Longbottom is a difficult thing. He absent his parents too in a way, yet he didn’t get accustomed as a hero the aforementioned way that Harry did. There was a acumen why Neville was in Gryffindor and that becomes credible as the adventure goes on.
Most likely, Neville’s ancestors accomplishments storyline was cut due to time. It’s a continued adventure and there apparently aloof wasn’t abundant time for it.
So, this one is a highlight of both the book and the film. Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban was one of the best abrupt novels in the franchise, partially due to the addition of time travelling magic. The affair is, though, that it’s adamantine to accompany time biking into a adventure after finding a agglomeration of added moments in the series where this kind of abracadabra would accept appear in handy.
The cine does an alike worse job of it, though. They never absolutely accommodate an account of how time turner abracadabra absolutely works or how Hermione was application it. Plus, the scenes were somewhat sloppily done– microphone packs could be apparent in some of the anamnesis scenes.
A above acumen why time turner abracadabra is never absolutely looked into is that there’s apparently not a way to explain it after contradicting added abracadabra in the Harry Potter world. Unfortunately, this leaves a huge gap in the franchise.
Emma Watson was a absolute Hermione when it came to her personality. Essentially, she portrayed the magical, added over-exaggerated adaptation of herself in the Harry Potter films. However, back it came to her looks, Watson was a bit too altered compared to her on awning persona.
Hermione was declared to accept asperous teeth and coiled hair. She ends up alteration her looks– decidedly that of her hair– in a storyline that concluded up never authoritative it on screen. While the aboriginal blur showed Hermione in her coiled haired glory, the films started slacking on befitting up with it as the authorization went on.
Specifically, this took abroad from her moment at the yule ball. While yes, Watson looked attractive in her dress, it wasn’t the moment it was declared to be because there wasn’t a buildup. Producers accustomed Watson to attending added like herself in the movies, rather than alteration her to look more like the archetypal Hermione.
The Weasley’s had affluence of storyline’s that were cut for the films. However, one of the better issues was that two of their accouchement were missing. While Percy was a about in the beginning, his storyline of activity adjoin his ancestors in favor of the admiral was absolutely cut out. As for Charlie, he alone existed in everyone’s imagination.
The ancestors of Ron Weasley was unique, humorous, and loving. They had all sorts of ball and means of abutting aural the Harry Potter world. Sadly, Percy’s agitation never fabricated it to the big screen. However, at atomic that was added than what Charlie got. The guy formed with dragons, yet we didn’t alike absolutely see him.
Harry’s accord with the Weasley ancestors was focused on in the films. They became his ancestors and he saw them in acceptable times and in bad. Not highlighting these missing Weasley children/moments was adverse to the change of Harry’s accord with the ancestors as a whole.
For some reason, Tom, the inkeeper of the Leaky Cauldron in Diagon Alley, absolutely afflicted in the movies. It feels like the Harry Potter producers either didn’t apprehend that they had already apparent Tom in addition light, or that they aloof didn’t care, as the appearance was basically two acutely altered people. Yes, the amateur was recast, but it’s added of an affair of a change in identity.
Apparently, not a accomplished lot of bodies took affair with Tom acceptable a absolutely altered person. Some alike accept theories as to why it occurred. That actuality said, it aloof didn’t accomplish faculty in the movies, as they never explained why the change happened.
Were they aloof acquisitive that anybody would accept abandoned what Tom looked like in the actual aboriginal Harry Potter movie?
Ron and Hermione were a continued time coming. That actuality said, they ability not accept pushed it adamantine abundant back it came to the moment anybody had been cat-and-mouse years for.
In the book series, Ron and Hermione’s kiss comes in a moment of full-on passion. The two had been architecture up to this moment for years and the kiss reflected that. However, admirers were aghast back the kiss in the cine concluded up actuality blah and added of a amusing moment.
The kiss amid Ron and Hermione in the films was added affected and beneath exaggerated. Afterwards acumen that they could accept been actively harmed, the two abeyance and again kiss.
While the change ability not assume as acute to some, to the better of fans, it’s a above misstep. It’s aloof addition allotment of the acumen why bodies agitation Ron and Hermione’s relationship. It aloof didn’t fit them.
Yet addition adapt Harry Potter amateur was Lavender Brown. That actuality said, she didn’t aloof change back it came to who portrayed her, but her absolute ethnicity was flipped.
While it’s not aberrant for actors to be recast, abnormally back it comes to adolescent actors who abound and evolve, this one is strange. Why change the ethnicity of a character? What purpose does that serve? While the actor, Jessie Cave, concluded up assuming Lavender Amber afterwards on, the role had originally gone to Jennifer Smith.
Apparently, there’s no absolute acumen as to why Smith was replaced by Cave. Back Jennifer Smith got the role in Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban, it wasn’t alike a speaking role. Back it came time to accord Lavender Amber a solid amateur to portray her, casting admiral anticipation that Cave was the best fit.
