WARNING: THIS POST HAS SPOILER ALERTS PART 2
BOOK 3: Okay I wanna say something here. PEOPLE, THAT IS NOT WHAT A WEREWOLF LOOKS LIKE. DUH. I mean since when is a werewolf, like, NOT actually hairy? Look at this:
Since when is that... that... THING a werewolf?!?!?! It looks like it should be slimy not hairy!! Also they left out the part where Harry goes back in time and learns about the Marauders!!! WHY?!?!S
Sigh.
BOOK 4: This move they left out a lot of things. INCLUDING LUDO BAGMAN!!!! How can you leave out Ludo?!WHAT THE HECK?!?!? Anyway onto the other stuff and complaints. Also can we talk about the film's logic here for a second? The fourth book introduces Veelas, siren-like creatures with strong magical powers to make men fawn over them as the Bulgarian National Quidditch Team's mascot. Fleur Delacour turns out to be half Veela. She goes to Beauxbatons, the French Hogwarts (so, you know, co-ed and all). Yet this translates into the movies as such: no mention of Veelas whatsoever, but all Beauxbatons students are insanely beautiful women?!? (And conveniently all Durmstrang students are boxy, muscular, Alpha-males?) Whaaaaaattttt? Also did you know that one of the major motifs of the book is about breaking down prejudices and inhumane hierarchy for all creatures, not just Harry's friends? If you only saw the movies then probably not, because the house-elf liberation front - a.k.a the best and most frequent inciter of awesome Ron and Hermione fights - is conspicuously absent from the movies. AND the third-task of the Triwizard Tournament is just generally underplayed in the Goblet of Fire. Believe it or not, the complicated labyrinth consists of way more than heavy breathing while wandering and running into a cursed Viktor Krum. Wow. Now that I list this all.... Wow. Just wow. This movie is BAD. I suggest reading the books instead.
