“Neville reaches deep down to his British roots and conquers India” is hands-down one of the greatest sins ever dispensed by this channel.
Somebody tell me the timestamp, please?

Yeah, it's pretty great!!! One of my other favorites is from TV Sins video on Peanuts' "The Great Pumpkin".
Linus: "There are three things I've learned never to discuss with people, religion, politics, and The Great Pumpkin."
Jeremy: "Strangely in 2019, these are somehow all the same topic."(3:08)
I don't know why, but that one really got me. ☺
SOMEONE PLEASE LISTEN: yo but like Harry is the antagonist in the philosophers stone and flamel and I think his wife die as a result of his stupidity. If he had stayed in his room, quirrel would never have been able to get to the stone...
As a diehard fan of the books, this video makes me realize that the movies skipped so many crucial plot points. Like 80% of these sins are legitimate questions that someone who hasn't read the books might have while watching the movie and the movie does nothing to explain most of it or just blah blahs over it. How, according to the movie, does Harry learn about Hufflepuff's cup, for example? All of this makes me want a properly made remake of this series in the form of a TV show.
So many problems books turned to movies have could have been solved by turning the books into tv shows. Way too much needs to be cut to fit everything into a movie.
I literally just left the exact same comment only to scroll one down and find this lol the whole time I was dying inside like there's freaking muffliato for the anti eavesdropping spell.. There's so many things that were answered in the books but not the movie I had no idea until I watched this either
Yes
You are 100% correct. However I would argue they are great movies. Not fully accurate to the books at all but solid movies
As much as I agree with you, you’ll have a hard time finding a new Harry without getting lunched by Daniel Radcliffe fans
The reason that Lucius Malfoy tries to use killing curse against Harry in second movie was actually a legitimate mistake on Jason Isaacs' part. He legitimately forgot his line and just said the first spell that came to his mind, which just happened to Avada Kedavra.
Does fit the character though.
That makes the scene even better for me
Y'know what, fair enough
And retake of a scen doesn't happen?
@@trolletuva Obviously it didn't as it gave Lucius a darker side to the character. It has been confirmed by numerous people, including Isaacs and Daniel Redclife, that this was pure imrpovisation on Isaacs' part, just like the previous scene and Harry's famous line "Don't worry. I will" which was also improvised on the spot. Isaacs has claimed many times since that he was legitimately impressed with the young actor with how he handled this scene.
I love how half the sins are just things that weren't explained in the movie but were explained in the book.. 100 extra sins to all of the movies for keeping everything important from the books out of them
I'm happy you understand the entire point of those things being sins is because the movie should stand on its own. I'm sure you've read the other comments and know why.
Luckily HBO is making a tv show version of Harry Potter that will follow the books word for word.
bro I actually got mad at some of these sins XD. I recently read all the books again and know everything fresh in my mind and it triggered me so much
LOL Yeah, you counted half huh?
@@Itsuomi-Io Yea hahaha I mean if you watch the movies without reading the books I 100% understand this but when you know it all it's hella triggering XD
Biggest sin of all: Never showing us our favorite Poltergeist, Peeves.
No they didn't show us how Fred die!!!
Actually. the biggest sin is how forgotten Neville Longbottom is in the franchise. He's just as important as Harry.
@@deltableu - Is he really, though? Does he have an insanely large role in the books? Or is he just important because of how his existence affected Snape (avoiding book spoilers here)?
@@deltableu they just kept out the parts that if harry had died as a baby he would have been the "chosen one" but since harry didn't die, it's not relevant to the story. The peeves stuff is sad since his scenes were filmed for the first movie.
@@xxANTIFA That's like totally not true.
Neville is a little bit significant only because he had the same "compatibility" with most of the Prophesy conditions as Harry... _apart from being chosen by Voldemort_ himself (imprecise quote: "and the Dark Lord will mark him as equal"). Even if that choice was a coin flip on the Voldie side, it still was a choice, and without that crucial detail Neville significance falls apart.
If Harry had died that night then the Prophesy would've been fulfilled (imprecise quote: "one of them die at the hand of the other"), not magically transferred onto another child.
One thing that I find wrong about the movies is that Ron was downgraded to a cowardly, gluttonous and comedic sidekick, instead of the badass, loyal and witty friend that he is in the books.
It's cuz the writers favorite was Hermione. He was biased and gave her a lot of Harry and Ron's good moments
@@Chris-ks4sw Could also be down to the fact that Emma Watson is better at acting than Rupert Grint and therefore the movies were rearranged. And Ron is really not that badass tbh. I think they portrayed the characters quite good in the movies. Only character that stands out is Umbridge and that is because Imelda Staunton nails that role to perfection.
@@Chris-ks4sw Hermione I'd rge best out of the 3
Exactly! The movies did Ron so dirty! Ron was the brains of their group, Hermione was annoying and Harry was kind of a brat.
@@mukke9728 Hermione got better but she was really awkward first few movies. They all got better. Harry had some great scenes in 5 and 6. Ron got a lot better too but by that point they had already ruined his character so they couldnt go back.
This taught me how important the book is to understanding this movie. And shows how much important stuff was cut out.
They could make a Harry Potter TV Series where each episode is a chapter of the books like The Lord of the Rings The Rings of Power, Game of Thrones and Game of Thrones House of the Dragon.
@@Cartman254 Funny you should say they they just announced a Harry Potter show in the works
@Orion-V Right? I'm so conflicted
It's genuinely stupid how much the movies cut out
he literally reacted to a deleted scene
What was the final straw for me was not even giving us the 20 seconds they could have and shown Harry using the Elder wand to repair his old one like he did in the books.
This legitimately pissed me off. They split the last book into 2 movies, wasted an hour of runtime in the first installment, then decided they didn't have time for a quick, informative, and narratively satisfying scene at the end of the second.
That should’ve literally doubled ALL sins assigned. (Including ones they might’ve forgiven between.)
And why did they have to be on the bridge.. why not in the headmasters office like in the book. Why did he have to break it. Dummbbbb
"Their punishment for staying out late and hanging out with Hagrid is to hang out late with Hagrid" I still lose my shit at this
Never seesn any ogff the movires, but Im still laughing art this one!
Hagrid's punishment for unleashing spiders is to hang out with spiders?
@@MBison-im2qy oh my gosh, you're right
And you morons fail to realize how that punishment makes so much sense. If you punish someone by forcing them to do that very thing they think they like but with dangerous consequences, they're gonna stop enjoying that thing and thus never doing it again.
Very contrived reason to shoehorn in Harry seeing the unicorn blood drinking and meeting Firenze.
Imagine if they did this to the MCU. It would be measured in days.
I'm sure he would find the way to cram it all together
Just had to sin one movie then you‘ve sinned all of the movie‘s plots

"Hermione isnt old enough to be hot yet" atleast 16 terabytes.
9:53 McGonnagal is not only one of the few slightly competent teachers at Hogwarts, but she’s also head of Gryffindor House, which Ginny is in, so she probably just looked at attendance records for the day and saw Ginny was missing.
Slightly competend? And Flitwick is incompetent or what?
@@Orion-V I mean, we can logically assume that someone took the register and told her. They can't show every small detail, the target audience is capable of basic inferential comprehension.
@@sahanaiyer6472 Considering how much unimportant stuff they had time for, yeah they very much could've shown that "little detail". It's not the audience's job to figure it out themselves, it's the movie's job to show it and make it clear. If they choose not to, dont get triggered for someone pointing out that they didn't.
@@bdaarmy9736It’s definenty not their job to make every little tiny detail extremely, abundantly clear. They trust their audiences fill in the blanks. Feel free to fill it however you want to. That’s a fun part of the creator-audience relationship.
And he’s only pointing it out because it’s literally his job to nitpick for fun, not because anyone was actually confused.
Clever 😮❤🎉
After all the unnecessary details they've put into the movies, they could've easily spare 5 seconds to explain that saying Voldemort's name out loud is actually used as a tracker.
They did in Deathly Hallows pt.1. It might have been a deleted scene. I watched the movies On Demand and apparently they were the extended versions so I saw a bunch of 'new' scenes. Probably should have left that one in there.
to track what?
@@KafshakTashtak Who said it.
@@KafshakTashtak to track anyone who says his name or rather dares say his name
First time am hearing this honestly didn't know
One sin you forgot is, when the letter says Harry did the patronus charm in from of a muggle, the letter is reading itself out loud while floating in the room with three muggles, including the same one from before.
This is extremely true, I never even realized that
Almost like it's an unfair charge that is later dropped because the ministry is trying to expel harry and normally using magic in front of your family who know about magic wouldn't be a problem.
They were already privy to the magical world when they had to take on the responsibility of raising Harry. It was in the letter tucked inside of his blanket. Dudley however was our of the loop about it, including Harry before Hagrid told him. So the enchanted letter wouldn’t have been new to them as muggles who were currently begrudgingly raising a wizard. Also by this time Harry is already three years into school, so they would be used to things like this by now, not comfortable with it, but used to it.
i know!
No, that's just a new topic you wanted to raise, and for some reason you thought the best way to do it was the passive aggressive "you forgot" whine.

Hey, remember when -Hermoine- Hermione corrected others for saying Wingardium Leviosa incorrectly? At 55:58, she herself says "Confundus", even though the incantation of the Confundus Charm is actually "confundo".
buddy, it is spelled 'heroine'. lol
@@aumhren3480 Hermione is her name, which I did spell incorrectly, but I wasn't trying to say "heroine". If I actually wanted to type out heroine, then I would've also added "the" before it and H wouldn't have been capitalized. Stick to Slovene.
With that being said, I recommend you stop watching these shitty-ass CinemaSins videos.
I thought its spelled Cocaine
@@aumhren3480 My comment didn't go through, probably cause I said that you shouldn't watch videos by these guys.
Anyway, I did spell Hermione incorrectly, so I fixed it. If I had wanted to say heroine though, I wouldn't have capitalized H and I would've put "the" before the word. But I didn't. Stick to Slovene.
What I love about malfoy and the apples is that Tom Felton kept sneaking them on set to the point where they sewed all his pockets shut
I thought that was because of chocolate
@@rachael6855 Yeaah it was
/thathappened
No, that's because he kept sneaking chocolate and sweets onto the set and they melted and ruined the robes so eventually all pockets were sewn shut
Sooo many people for this, it's both impressive...
and disappointing.
r/woooosh
The fact that Voldemort's mother is portrayed as the "poor wife who's husband left her when she was pregnant" when she actually used a love potion on his father, raped and married him, felt bad, and then released the spell which resulted in him leaving her for obvious reasons.
Well that's pretty significant LOL
retsaM innavoiG would be great at CinemaSins
It's really no wonder Tom was such an asshole.
I would be too.
@retsaM innavoiG it's a sin.
No she didnt even feel bad she deluded herself into thinking he actually loved her
Actually, malfoy wasn't about to use the death curse outside Dumbledores office, the actor forgot the spell he was supposed to use and magically the only spell he remembered was ironically the death curse
And so they just left it in? Almost like they don’t have editing 😂
15:33 Fun fact: they actually had to start sewing the pockets of Tom Felton’s robes shut because he kept sneaking snacks on the set.
That has nothing to do with the fact that Draco was eating a Granny Smith apple in this scene, it’s just a fun fact.
My absolute favorite part in prisoner of Azkaban is when Harry says "he's free, we did it" and Dumbledore responds "did what?" And waves 😂😂 I don't know why I find that so funny
Dumbledore is always kinda giving the finger to everybody with his little trolls, it's so funny.
I feel like he must be so tiring to deal with on a daily basis...
@@Libellulaire someone so powerful would either be a dick or eccentric af. I'll take the latter

I liked the part when Hermione said "It's coalin' time" and she magicked all over Henry's filthy tender with special drugs.
They didn’t show Bellatrix’s wand to the guards because they knew her wand was taken and that if someone came in with her wand, they would immediately know they took it.

Okay, and in the films they felt like changing the tension of that scene, and I think that's great. Kinda dumb when people want the book to be directly translated to a movie. It wouldn't even work at all anyway
@@JasonDrums24 It doesn't make any sense man. That's the literal only line Dumbledore is ever aggressive with Harry in the movies. It's so out of place and very odd.
Why is this too low?
HARRY HARRY DIDYOUPUTYOURNAMEINTHEGOBLETOFFIRE
Let's be honest, Rowling explained the overwhelming majority of those sins either herself or in the books. The biggest sin is not having more of the books in the films.
That's not a sin, it's called having a limited budget. You think people would watch 10 hour long Harry Potter movies?
And before you go on whining about tv series, the industry for tv series wasn't as developed 20-25 years ago, the way it is now.
Nothing Rowling explained herself that wasn't in the books really counts. Especially since she clearly makes a lot of it up on the spot like one of the Lost writers and then just pretends it was planned all along.

@@hexenshadow5642 wow really? Where .. that is funny
I only watched the first 10 minutes but you could counter like 70% of the things he's saying.
@@Film-Is-Magic Well if you already read the books yeah, but cinema sins is taking it as its own universe separate from the books. Because the movies do a very, very shit job at explaining very basic and key plot points. Like the wand thing, its stated in the books that you don't need your wand, or even a wand at all, to perform spells. It just makes spells far stronger when you have a compatible wand. None of this is explained in the movies though. With that being said, you can still counter a good portion of what he says just by pure logic.
The unbreakable vow: The reason it's unbreakable is that if you break it you die. Not because it makes you literally not be able to break it.
Couldnt you force someone to make a vow as a bypass to killing them? Like, "say the vow, say 'I won't breath for the rest of my life'" and then the person dies no matter what. Or does the vow have to be consensual?
@@thatguyintherain3168 Something like that almost happened to Ron in the books. The Weasley twins Fred and George almost put ron under the unbreakable vow, their father caught them and stop it before anything happen. He was pissed when he caught them. The unbreakable vow requires you to agree upon what is said so anything said cannot be forced it has to be consensual. But you could trick someone into an unbreakable vow like what almost happen to ron.
Why not call it the liars curse or the revenge curse. SInce the vow is clearly breakable and it being unbreakable isn't the point of it anyway. The person making the vow which was broken obviously lied to make the vow and you only want them to pay for breaking the vow.
@@TKFKU they don’t vow that they’re telling the truth, it’s a promise, a promise that you can’t break if you want to live, I think the unbreakable vow is a really good choice for a name
never trust a suicidal person with an unbreakable vow
*Camera switches to a naked bloody baby Voldemort* "Well that's fucking disgusting..." That sent me. 🤣🤣🤣🤣
You missed a sin in the first film and it's another glaring plot hole - how does Harry's skin carry protection from Voldemort touching him, he can be strangled but the moment harry touches him back with his hands, THEN the protection kicks in! So it doesn't reside in all of his skin like his neck, just his hands?
I love that one of the most consistent sins he points out is how everyone reverts back to calling Voldemort “You-Know-Who” in the last two movies. All this because the movies never bothered to explain that they turned the saying of his name into a tracking beacon.
It's funny because the one clue that it is a tracking beacon was Xenophilius Lovegood saying it, and it was more like a scare chord and a 'speed of plot' thing when the Death Eaters were suddenly already swooping in. I may be wrong, but I think the first time that the tracking beacon thing was definitely active was during Bill and Fleur's wedding, when it was announced that "The ministry has fallen. Scrimgeour is dead. They are coming." and it was revealed that the anti-disapparation shield was down. At that time, with the ministry under Voldemort's control, something like a country-wide tracking beacon for his spoken name, and a witch or wizard to get a fix on where it came from and to relay the information to the Death Eaters, is much more plausible. Once the trio escaped, it was then revealed for sure that the name was 'cursed' when it was quietly uttered in a cafe on the London Underground (a place where it would be very hard to find them conventionally because they're in Muggle territory and in a subterranean location to boot) and some disguised Death Eaters turned up a few minutes later. Later on, Hermione theorised that the name was now actually cursed because 'bad things kept happening' and was now actively avoiding its use, and it was Harry being overconfident, I think, that caused the trio to get captured and brought to Malfoy Manor.
I forgot about that!
By that logic, Hagrid was the one who endangered Harry from the beginning when he caved and told Harry about him, mentioning him by name in the Leaky Cauldron. Hagrid's a death eater!
@@jackl.1759 it wasn't used as a tracking beacon then. Only in the Deathly Hallows, once Voldemort was in power. Only his enemies dared to use his name, especially Harry, so they put a charm on using the name. That's how the Death Eaters were able to track Harry. And while they muse about this in the movie after Harry is no longer under-age, they never revisit this or explain this. So much stuff in the movies you wouldn't know unless you read the books.
TECHNICALLY the name of Voldemort was jinxed. Not cursed.
Yes I'm fun at parties, why do you ask
“Neville reaches down to his true British roots and conquers India”

A reason why Ron and Harry would never get into ravenclaw was that they decided to steal the flying car instead of waiting for Mr and Mrs Weasley to come back through the wall to get back to the car
Something I recently realized was none of the death eaters. Know a mass killing spell you could just send bees after them. They likely would not be able to cast enough spells in a timely manner before the bees were upon them
Incendio?
Also, sure, Harry says “Diagon Alley” weird, but he doesn’t say it so weird that it sounds like “Knockturn Alley”
I think it went to the first flue it could find in a diagonal direction
The book had a better reason for him saying it wrong. He just...says it wrong in the movie. In the book he inhaled floo powder as he was saying it. I wish we got to see it I the movie
@@rydianblack7594 ah true, I remember that now. He sort of sneezed as he spoke, and that could feasibly sound like “knockturn”
Like “cough-gon alley”
I think the idea in the movie is that he says diagonally, as in Knockturn alley is diagonally to Diagon Ally
I had hopes in the german dub, because he just says it really fast and sort of mumbles it there, but then I realized they translated Knockturn with...well..Nokturn ._.
The diagonally thing doesn't even work, Diagon Alley is "Winkelgasse" and diagonally in German is just diagonal. I get why we don't like our dubs most of the time lmao
It was Mad Eye Moody who said “This conversation is no longer private.” In Dumbledore’s office because he could see Harry through the door with his magic eye.
Yeah, did the dude not notice that his eye was rolled back, looking backwards through the back of his head?
In the book series, madeye is always looking around for threats; so would it be unusual for a guy to do the thing that the guy usually does?
That's not the only mistake. This was a really lazy video.
@@amadeushorror129 1 hour 40 minutes long you want 10 hour?
THANK YOU! I just spent waaay too much time looking for someone else who noticed that it was not Snape who noticed the meeting was no longer private so no need for the sin when Snape didn't notice eavesdropping going on at a later meeting.
1:29:31 before this scene, the trio were stuffing their faces in food like they hadn't had any in weeks. Couldn't Hermione have packed a few snacks for the trip in her bag with INFINITE STORAGE!?
Sin 345. Ms. Figg is indeed a squib, but a squib is someone born to magical parents without powers. Being born a wizard to muggle parents is “Muggleborn.”

54:10 What if the liquid luck potion was used before, but noone told us about it? Maybe Harry was stupidly lucky all of the time because Dumbledore was secretly pouring this potion into every Harry's meal in Hogwarts. That would make a lot more sense (this idea is actually pretty stupid, so it making more sense than the real plot tells us a lot about the realism of the films)
The thing about Felix Felicis is that it's almost certianly a placebo. This can be seen by the fact that just having a person think they drank it (Ron), a literal placebo, gives the person great confidence and they find they succeed in what they try. The description of the potion says that drinking too much can have disastrous results, similarly to how being overconfident leads to disastrous consequences, while a good amount of confidence usually leads to success.
Further, Harry almost definitely didn't need to use it to extract the memory from Slughorn, Dumbledore knew that he could do it and trusted him to do so entirely, and the entire reason he succeeded was due to a change in attitude and approach after drinking liquid luck. He felt he knew what he was doing, ie he was confident, and that confidence put him into a situation where Slughorn was willing to give it up. If Harry had drank the potion and then just confronted Slughorn in the same way as before, it wouldn't work, but because he felt confident and in control, his roundabout method of following his gut instinct resulted in success, just like how Ron's confidence boost from thinking he drank it resulted in him following his gut instincts and thus performing well at quidditch.

There are many spells that could've been used. Petrificus Totalus to freeze him, Flipendo to push him away. Hell, even Confundus if you don't want to deal any physical damage to him.
This cinemasin-video brought to my mind Ms Figg wasn't the only one who kept an eye on Harry in Order of the Phoenix (book). One member of the order kept watching him too in this case Mundungus who disappered before his shift was over.
I gotta say the book version of that dragon fight was way cooler. one, the entire fight happened in the stadium, and two it was meant to emphasize Harry's talent and reflexes as a quidditch player, but in the movie he is basically just running away the whole time.
The biggest book to movie sin is the dumbing down of Ron Weasley.
@@RobCooper-Bachatador There are good video essays on how and why that happened, if you haven't seen them, but I agree - in tandem with kind of glossing over Hermione's flaws, they also just make Ron dumb.
Because I'm, well, a huge nerd, and read various fanfiction, it was interesting to watch as you could tell which fanfic authors were basing their stuff off the books and which were basing it off the movies based solely on how they treated Ron in their fanfics.
@@stevencowan37 I've seen the one where the director script writer just said he was a fan of Hermione and JK was shocked.
I get that he wanted to have a stronger heroine and i didn't mind movie Ron but I found the books balanced the flaws and benefits of three (four including Neville) protagonists better.

@@watercat-veki yeah, the first one isn't as long as the others. You're in for a ride lol
Also, in that magical clock the Weasley's have in their house we can see the word "Dentist", implying that Wizards know about the existence of said profession, but when Hermione has to explain what her parents do for a living in that small committee meeting with Slughorn, everybody seems surprised, as if they have never heard of that word before.

14:53 the first actor who played dumbledore passed away after the 2nd movie and got replaced how is that a sin?
Because he was the best and only Dumbledore.
The room of requirement is activated by mentally repeating a phrase describing something you need 3 times in front of its entrance, and the contents of the room are shaped for that specific need. When Neville found it, he was pacing the halls thinking "a place to train, a place to train, a place to train" over and over and over again, racking his brains for an idea of where to do their defense against the dark arts training, and happened to walk in front of the room of requirement when he did so.
The version of the room of requirement full of things is the form that the room takes when you ask for a place to hide something. Malfoy wanted to hide the cabinet, Harry wanted to hide the book, and Ravenclaw wanted to hide the diadem.
You need to walk/turn in front of the room 3 times and think what you need to open the room
Voldemort hid ravenclaws diadem after he found where ravenclaw had hidden it in a tree which she told him the location of
I love how “The Princess Diaries” has more sins than all the Harry Potter movies combined
holy shit youre right
Holy shit-
So does i think more than half the transformers movies
Seems fair😎👍
have you seen the home alone 2 one
In the books it says that they placed a taboo on the word "Voldemort" that takes away all of the protective spells and immedietly reveals your place to them. That is why they do not say it. Altough they should've put that detail in the movie
I always wondered why ALL the spells and all the protective charms cold be overridden by Voldemort's Trace spell when ha finally had a little more power but was not at his peak. Does not compute
Ron kind of mentioned it after he got splinched
@@JulieFalen because they control the ministry of magic
@@JulieFalen He was in control of the ministry of magic AND he was one of the most powerful wizards that century. In fact he was one of the 3 most powerful wizards of that century with Grindelwald and Dumbledore being the other two. Considering that Voldemort was significantly younger than Dumbledore I would assume that, if they were at same age, he might have been even more powerful than Dumbledore. So... actually not a big deal that he was capable of doing that.
But that wasn't until the last book. Not saying his name began in book 1 and carried through.
19:00 - 19:07 - I think the answer to that is that Hagrid moved from the one room forrest house, on one side of the castle, to the two room cliff house on the other side of the castle during the summer between "Chamber of secrets" and "Prisoner of Akzaban"
The amount times this (assumed) grown man has said “Hermione isn’t old enought to be hot yet” is concerning.
Thats what im saying!
There's a lot of things wrong with these movies, but Hagrid's delivery of that "Harry?! No! What're you doin' here?!" Is fucking great. He is so sad that Harry is either willing to sacrifice himself, or betrayed by Hogwarts because he doesn't know what happened, and he just sounds like he wishes that asking why will save Harry.
I still burst into tears when he says that
I'm sorry but i can't help myself: NEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEERD!
That line, no mater how many times I watch it, will always crush my soul and have me bawling like a newborn.
Why will save Harry indeed.

Such a great idea to sin an entire franchise. I'd like to see Everything Wrong With The Fast & Furious franchise (while I like the franchise as my guilty pleasures, it's fun to see them get sinned)

@@joshsmith8715 They haven't sinned F9 yet.
I’d recommend the Cosmomaut Variety Hour’s review of this series! He’s really good at pointing out all the dumb flaws 😂
I never read the books, but I was always confused why they didn't create liquid luck for ALL the students, faculty, elves, and kitchen staff....you get my point
it was an incredibly long and difficult potion to make, had to have very specific ingredients, it needed to stew for six months and excessive or continuous use has adverse effects, as well as the actual effectiveness being reduced, and to make so much you would need a lot of uncommon ingredients and a lot of time for relatively something minimal, though, as an emergency store it would make more sense, but, kids are stupid and would likely waste it, also you have a massive amount of spells at your disposal to kind of balance the need out
So it's been said recently that wands can percieve your intentions, if you cast a spell and then the same one over and over again (as they do in fights), it can happily repeat the spell with no issues.
I wonder if this also explains why sometimes they cast magic with no words at all, because the wand can perceive their intentions.
Yes this is exactly the reason. Wandless magic or rather magic casted without verbal spells is based on the idea that wands have a limited intuitive entity zhatvallows them to connect with their owner, they can feel the intention
@@rexmacquaidthe3rd That isn't it at all. It literally just takes practice. Only reason it is used way more in the movie and rarely seen in the books is cause the movie you can see what they do whereas the book it would have to be explained every time they did a spell what it was.
Not even a minute in and “soo hogwarts is basically a death trap turned into a school” is the best description I have ever seen 😂😂😂
I'd say it's the other way around, especially considering what happens in the last books.
Summed up all of the series i now understand almost all of it.
hi
yeah theres no way this could be explained ....smh ...read the books sucka!!
You’ve gotta remember, they have magical healing. They can heal just about ANYTHING. Learning magic, being able to do just about anything, means you have to learn to respect the danger of that gift. Moving staircases and poisons, etc., are nothing compared to the fact that you basically give an 11 year old a gun. At least they teach them how to use, and respect the danger of, it.
Fun fact about that time where Lucius almost killed Harry but dobbie stopped him: They told the actor that played Lucius malfoy "just say a spell" and he couldn't remember any spells So he asked to camera operator and the camera operator could only remember that spell. Neither of them had any clue what the spell actually did.
My head cannon was that he was actually just going to kill Dobby, it’s played up as a heroic act of dobby saving harry but not realizing he actually just protected his own life.
No, the actor himself came up with it because he could not remember one. Idk where you get the whole camera man thing from...
@@Some_Guy6 Yeah, from memory Jason Isaacs had read the fourth book fairly recently and that was the spell that came to mind. I have no clue where the camera guy thing came from. Like, what? If he couldn't remember ANY spell, why would he turn to the camera guy and go "Hey mate, you know a spell?". Why not ask the director, for... yaknow... direction?
Still though, it is kinda silly. If anything, he should have gone for his wand and that's when Dobby reacts. But no way is Lucius Malfoy stupid enough, even in a rage over losing a valuable slave, to think that AKing Harry bloody Potter in the middle of Hogwarts is going to end well.
That’s crazy how’d you know that?!

What I dont get is why the Malfoys made fun of the Weasleys for being so high up in the Arena, when they were in the same place, and you're watching a game where they FLY

24:46 To be fair, the last tournament took place in 1792. I can't remember if the movie mentions it, but there was an incident involving a cockatrice, causing it to be shut down for over 200 years. This movie was the first time it was being brought back since then...

Aw come on, you should totally have taken off a sin for Maggie Smith saying "I've always wanted to use that spell!" She's adorable.
Interesting note even though she was proud of the movies she and Snape thought their parts were under utilized
Or when she calls Filch a "blithering idiot". That was gold.

I've watched this at least 5 times. How is it possible that you never put in a bonus round? This video is RIFE for it!!!
Please read the books, every question you have asked is explained on the books.
Wands are used to channel magic, most children in the potter universe display magical talent from a very early age, yet do not get wands until age 11 when they are taught to control their abilities as long as they have a wand on them, they can use magic, Harry potter and the half blood Prince BOOK goes into this in detail when Harry is learning to cast non verbal spells, but it also states that not every witch or wizard is able to fully master it.
The issue is needing the books to understand the films. There are film only Potterheads, and the movies should be able to stand on their own.
Ah, back when Jeremy would speed run through the sins. 47 sins in less than 3 minutes for the first one.
Cinemasins any% speedrun world record?
He obviously hates the first one and wants to get it done as fast as possible. Or he loves it (wouldn’t know)
@@PloverTechOfficial they used to make the videos a lot shorter so he talked faster to get more sins in.

I totally thought we were going to get a redo because Birdman is doing the EWWCS Harry Potters right now. Bummer.
matter of fact. there IS an anti eavesdropping spell in the books. its called muffliato and it basically creats static in the ears of the ppl around you so they cant hear you. however this is only used in the last book when the trio are setting camp when fleeing frlm voldemort
I'm not 100% sure but Harry might've read that spell in half blood princes book and used it in the sixth book.
I read this as muffuletta, and now I want a sandwich 😭
I think Minerva knew Ginny had been taken because somehow between the discovery of the message and the teachers meeting at the message, she, Sprout, Flitwick, and Snape had the time to check every girls dormitory and find that Ginny was missing
You forgot about the attendance list.
Minerva is the Head of Ginny's House, so she would naturally know if Ginny were missing.
This video feels like a timelapse of Cinemasins over the years. From the short and sweet nitpicks of the classics to the more detailed lighthearted jokes of the current. It's amazing so much has changed and yet they still remain true to being 'assholes'.
>detailed

>jokes
Can't tell if sarcastic or insane.
Yeah they're kinda getting a lot wrong on purpose here... There were so many times where I yelled at the narrator for getting something wrong that was shown pretty obviously earlier in the movie.
@@BootyCrusader lwhen you say mistakes, do you also mean including the delete sceens from chamber of secrets
@@batmanbeyond5766 the entire part about portkeys is an example. This guy keeps harping on about the boot and how this boot must be the only portkey and how it leads to this random hill in the British countryside and the Cup being a portkey is weird because it’s not a boot etc etc. Or basically every time a problem is solved with magic, he goes “thats impossible & I dont understand it so its a sin” IT’S. FREAKING. MAGIC.
@@BootyCrusader Exactly, if the portkey aren't explained Jeremy goes "what well how does that work" and if they are explained he'll go "oh I'm sure this information won't be useful later in the movie *wink*" or "oh wow yes please explain more about this one object in this one scene" or some other "I hate exposition"
“Says yes to the first weasly who comes along.” Fred and George are the two most popular guys at school

20:46 He assumes that Harry & crew would get caught and that consequent events would all change, but we don't know that for certain. The most likely initial scenario is someone of the trio dying. For example, Harry perishing vs the dementors. That would trigger Hermionie going back to save him.
3:47 I believe there is a portion of the clock that reads bed. Also some of them could’ve been out playing quidditch as there’s a marking for that too. Arthur was at work and Molly could’ve been said to be at work too as she was making breakfast and just generally being a housewife.
I remember, it is either bed or sleeping
A sin you missed, they cut out the part where Aunt Petunia tells what dementors are and the Dursleys actually understand Harry's world for once.
Another sin, they cut out the part where Harry reads an letter his mom wrote, it was such an beatiful scene in the book.

You know, I've always wondered why if you could easily gain ownership of the Elder wand just by disarming someone, that Voldemort didn't know of this at all and just decided to kill his best and (who he thought was) his most loyal death eater rather than just telling him "alright stand in front of me holding this elder wand, and i'll expelliarmus you"
In the books, it's explained. Historically no one's ever tried to get the wand just through defeating them without killing the previous owner. So until the draco defeating Dumbledore thing happened, no one could've known whether it's disarming or killing that transferred ownership
Also killing is kind of his go-to response to every problem.
have you
You can't just disarm someone--you have to disarm the owner while they're wielding it. If someone else wields it, it doesn't count, since you broke the wand's allegiance to them that it didn't have anyway.
@@coderzgaming7610 that's not true actually. Draco Malfoy never had the elder wand, but the ownership transferred to him anyway. So when Harry beat him in Malfoy manor, the ownership transferred to Harry even though neither one had ever had the wand yet
Hermione Granger wasn’t actually supposed to be pretty in the series at all. JK Rowling said in an interview that she just fell in love with Watsons personality and such making Jk wanting her for the role. Hermione was actually described as a bit ugly.
And he really doesn’t watch the movies he’s doing these in does he? We almost instantly find out that Lockhart takes the job because of the fame that would come from Harry Potter
1:32:12 “Ron speaks parseltongue, because finale”, let’s go ahead about 2.3 seconds
“Harry talks in his sleep” he was repeating what he’s heard Harry say
Guess what, that lollipop in Prisoner of Azkaban that Harry "stole" from Neville, was quite possibly actually not stolen after all. Any time Harry has had to grab or hold anything, he's stuck his hand out of the cloak. You know what's far more likely? A sticky lollipop coming into contact with an invisible piece of fabric and sticking there, getting carried along for the ride.
I mean, it's still kinda stealing, in a way
@@thatguyintherain3168 No it's not. If that was what happened, Harry didn't take it.
@@thatguyintherain3168 Pretty much
He couldn't have taken it, I mean how would he eat it if it was visible? There must hacmve been a clooak between his face and the lollipop. To eat it he would have to have it undercloak invisible with all his stuff
@@LilyRose8959 The sticky bandits will have something to say about that
I disagree with the sins regarding Lockhart. Universities hire awful professors for their prestige and research all the time
Lockhart wanted to add "Hogwarts's beloved DADA teacher" to his curricululm. Bumblemore needed someone, anyone, to teach DADA afTer decades of losing the current teacher every single year. Neither of those facts is explained in the movie.
That's the sin: not the fact that Hogwarts hired an absolute incompetent for a teacher, but the lack of explanation.
Admittedly, we the audience can presume that losing the Sabine god to the power of love put Bumblemore in a bit of a pickle... But the fact that every single DADA teacher hasn't lasted more than one year, including The Umbitch, because of a curse that De Mort placed on the position back when *he* wanted to teach DADA and Bumblemore laughed in his face and told him to get lost is never explained.
@@o0alessandro0o You seem very knowledgeable about this topic so I’ll take your word for it, CinemaSins just seemed to really despise the fact that Hogwarts would hire someone like Lockhart to teach
And we have to remember the job is cursed. Dumbledore knew Lockhart would be gone at the end of the year and something horrible would probably happen to him. Rowling said Dumbledore was friends with some of the people Lockhart obliviated.
@@Akuchan7 Would Dumbledore be that malicious? And if he was aware or suspected Lockhart, then why didn't he tell someone? Dumbledore was at least as famous as Lockhart, his word would have counted for something at least.
"Universities hire awful professors for their prestige and research all the time"
you're talking out of your ass. literally. Just like the Disney screenwriters, and frankly the original author, you're parading your ignorance around as if it's a virtue.
Plus 1 sin for adding a sin for Richard Harris dying between films.
Yeah it was a big sin for the movie that you weren’t allowed to thirst over an eleven year old girl
The Death Eaters found Harry, Ron and Hermione in the coffee shop because Voldemort put a trace on anyone who said his name out loud. Harry was known to use Voldemort's name.

I'm surprised you didn't say this about Dumbledore thinking Harry would be safer if ignored: "Yeah, but in Sorcerer's Stone, Hermione pointed out that Dumbledore was the one wizard Voldemort always feared. If he had learned Dumbledore was ignoring Harry, that would probably make him more likely to attack him due to Harry not having Dumbledore protecting him anymore." If *I* was Voldemort, I would've done that: Learn that Dumbledore was distancing himself from Harry, then kill Harry while he doesn't have Dumbledore protecting him
As a huge Potterfan who has read all the books, this is hilarious 😂
It is truly astonishing how many of the sins in this video are resolved with either narrative or exposition in the books. Using spells without saying the incantation, for example. Either the third or fourth book (I don't recall which) had a scene where the students were learning this skill. Using other wizards wands, too, is addressed in the books. It is possible but not ideal.
6th book😭
@@arshiamotazedian9334 It's been a WHILE since I read the books.
also, the iconic 'no need to call me sir, professor' line is from that scene, if i recall correctly
They could have put that explanation about incantationless magic and using other wands into a scene in the movie but they didnt thats why people who dont read the books question it. They emphasize so much in the first movies the importance of chanting,(winguardium leviosa) then a couple of movies later they disregarded it and just begin to spam magic like they are playing paintball in the woods.

54:30 the reason that Hermione is having issue with making the potions is because Snape is no longer teaching the class. He used to write down ingredients and instructions on the chalkboard instead of telling everyone to use the book. Harry finds his book and its basically like Snape is still teaching.
that isn’t accurate actually, snape taught the traditional program and harry got ahead because he had his secret shortcuts and hacks that weren’t conventional or made official. snape wasn’t teaching what he wrote in the book, because students weren’t meant to know this kind of stuff, and they were following the conventional textbook anyway.
@@oui2375 I feel like Snape should've been teaching *his* version of the text-book: He's a god damned teacher, after all.
@@oui2375 No what the above guy said is correct cuz in the books it's always said Harry was looking at the ingredients from the board or something of that accord and as a teacher he will obviously write the correct or easiest method yk
@@MrHel-hf3nk at least in real life, teachers can get sanctioned for not teaching curriculum, but this is the harry potter universe so i guess
@@thatonestarkidfan3918 Lots of my teachers don't teach directly from the textbook, especially when there are easier or more efficient methods of doing a problem available. That's precisely the point of that book too, that the common taught method isn't always the best. The best teachers teach kids to think outside the box/textbook, or teach the best way for each student.
As someone who read the books several times, long before watching the movies, this made me realize just how many things wouldn't make sense for someone who only watched the movies. Like obviously as a book reader I understood everything that wasn't explained but all the people that didn't read the books, rip.
I sometimes think of the movies as illustrations for the books, rather than two separate things.
As someone who's only seen the movies and read the first half of the first book, I can say I managed to follow the movies okay, especially on repeat viewings. The only major plothole that got under my skin due to having not read the books was how Sirius knew about the Marauder's Map, but even that got sorted after a little reading on the Harry Potter Wiki.
I wasn't so bothered by Lupin's concern over the map, though, because... well, he's a teacher, and teachers always confiscate stuff from students, whether it's actually dangerous stuff like pocketknives, or innocent stuff like Pokémon cards.

right, like i would love to say nearly all of these are either explained in the books or are there for convenience, but I doubt anyone is going to read the books to find out.
The fact that a good bunch of these things were actually explained in the book really proves how much the movies just skipped important details.
Sure, you can't put in the entire 700+ pages... but some stuff is important and wouldn't even have taken that long.
