See. That explains why hermione is always eager/happy about school. It's magic school!

There should be a book series of the 4 wizards who started hog warts, I gotta think some crazy shit happened.
Glumerlink
nah that would require rowling to world build a little.

Hogwarts: a history. Didn't you listen to hermione?
NexiKuro
I don't know, that would require some serious world building. And as much as I enjoyed harry potter that was never it's strength.

There's a lot of fanfiction, if you're willing to dig through that for gems.
TheSSMorgan2015
Good point. Except I'm too lazy. Anybody know any good ones?
TheSSMorgan2015
This one was actually really good: https://m.fanfiction.net/s/3401052/1/
TheSSMorgan2015
Not about the founders though
Zechie
From what we know, they didn't have the best of relations with each other, as seen in a bit of the deathly hallows (at least book version).
MisterG00dkat
So you're saying there would be conflict, and plots, and some action, maybe griff getting some huffelpuff? It would be awesome!
Zechie
Some of the other minor characters would also find relevance as well, like the Bloody Baron. 1/2 (spoiler in 2/2)
Zechie
Since he kills original Ravenclaw's daughter (whom he loved) out of anger, and killed himself after he realized what he'd done. Dramatic!2/2

Siriusly though, that's a good idea. For us who want longer immersion in the magical world.

Henry V, Benedick, Iago (person, not the parrot) and Hamlet...some of my favorite characters ever, and he played them on film

He was magnificent as Dr Loveless in Wild Wild West.

#19 So, Black and Potter helped make the map because they don't like rules and think they can do anything? That's the worst explanation ever
HavingABadDay
The question was how, not why, and for that it is a good answer. By not conforming you might create something totally new :)
Kimozabi
How does "not liking rules" make you able to create a map that can find anyone anywhere?
HavingABadDay
It might motivate you to look for solutions you normally shouldn't or wouldn't? Make you push boundaries.
MediumPlatypi
You can't suggest plot holes to Potterheads.... They don't react well.

So, you're saying that giving a time travel device to a little girl so she can... study more is not a retarded idea? :)

The part where Harry asked what Seamus is doing pisses me off every single time. WHAT THE FUCK DO U THINK HES DOING? Goddamn Potter.

So, I have a friend who never read all the Harry Potter books. Wanna explain to him what semus was doing for me? Thanks.

TheMonsterWithinYou
<_<; god I should re-read Harry Potter....I mean. My friend should read it.
Jashon
Well I mean it's in the tumblr quote itself. You're eh... friend doesn't need to reread or rewatch it to get it. Still, it's a fun read.
TheMonsterWithinYou
Lol idk I thought maybe there was something more to it than the obvious
IAmTheGatekeeper
I had always assumed that he couldn't actually hear Seamus and the reader/audience only knew what was actually happening to make it funnier.
RenIsTired
That part wasn't in the book... I mean neither of those parts are in the book. Harry comes off more dense in the movies.
AnonOmis1000
They change things in the movie to make them more interesting/repeatable. Like #14
IAmTheGatekeeper
Seamus does have a tendency to accidentally blow things up in the books, but yes I think that specific scene doesn't have a counterpart.
RenIsTired
Seamus's behavior wasn't the issue though right? It was that Harry asks what he is doing when it is obvious.
IAmTheGatekeeper
My original argument was that the audience knows but Harry can't hear. Then it kind of went on a tangent about accidental, magic explosions.
tardisbels
I'm still confuses as to why 11 year Olds are making rum.
NineByNine
Seamus has a hard life, and attempts to cope with it via alcoholism.

I mean, starting early. No hope for Seamus at all.

Did anybody else just hate the 2nd dumbledore?
HerrBisch
Some people who would have made a better Dumbledore than Michael Gambon: Bill Nighy, Colin Firth, Stephen Fry, Fucking John Cleese!
FourOrangeCircles
Richard Harris was much better, but you (mostly) can't act if you're dead. Michael Gambon did kind of grow on me, though.
skelekittycat
I liked him in the 6th film which is ironic considering what happens to him at the ebd
marjarooni
Eventually....he was insane in GoF though. No bueno.
Ruqayya
Not as good as the original at all...but it is not as though they could magic him alive again...THERE IS NO FUCKING MAGIC...and now I am sad
bootzncats
At first. But bless Richard Harris, he seemed on death's door (woops). I wanted him to be a kick ass as in the books. Powerful-like.
HerrBisch
Richard Harris was also a terrible choice for Dumbledore. They just fucked up big time!
danielsdesk
The best one would have been a mix of both; Richard Harris was kindly but not spritely enough; no energy; definitely couldn't have done (1)

purposefully didn't read the books is pretty annoying... though Alan Rickman didn't either and not many fault him as much because he was (4)

seemed really erratic; it wasn't until the 5th (and 6th particularly) did he seem to have some consistency; but I agree the fact that he (3)

any of the actions scenes necessary from the later films... Sometimes Michael Gambon did ok but his portrayal in the 3rd and 4th films (2)

Yes! But mainly because he bragged that he never read the books. Sauce- was a huge nerd and read a lot of interviews
