The snape walks in on pensieve one will never fail to make me laugh

That was actually a whole lot of new ones for me. And I've seen a whole lot of HP dumps. Good job, OP!

Where the fuck was peeves? Like seriously. Where? Dumb movies taking out the best part....
Showmeyourotters
The shit thing is they even filmed the first one with Peeves in it and then cut all his fucking scenes iirc.

great harry potter dump

I love me some Harry Potter but this type of indulgent over analysis is off putting
Sometimesbasketballsometimespoop
Could someone explain the putting the name into the Goblet of Fire thing?
themadspeedster94
In the book Dumbledore said it in a calm manner and Micheal Gambon performed it in a spectacularly angry and anxious manner
Sometimesbasketballsometimespoop
thank you! I see this referenced all the time and have never understood
themadspeedster94
You're welcome!
CuteAnimalsForSadSister
His body is part of why his movie death was stupid. To prove that in the end he was just a mortal man, albeit an evil one, you need a body.
CuteAnimalsForSadSister
Also, plenty I hadn't seen before, so thanks!
nerdtoast
he had a body in book death, he didn't need to fly away in pieces in the movie, he coulda just dropped dead in the Great Hall like the book
CuteAnimalsForSadSister
That's what I mean. It would prove that he was nothing more than a man.
nerdtoast
O, I read that differently the first time, it's hard to have a conversation with 150 characters! :(
CuteAnimalsForSadSister
I gotchu, boo
whitegrave
I never really get any of these but they are a fun read. The HP community isnt that bad maybe.
EarthDragon2189
They can get kinda crazy. These posts are pretty tame.

I can imagine that. Chamber if secrets was the best movie tho.

"Ten points to Dumbledore". And now there's tea on my keyboard. I hope you're happy.
CaptainMiffles
i love it so much when people make him out to be an adorably deranged old man XD it's hillarious.
Kalriostraz
I mean, look at his actions in the books. It's not hard to believe, and fits a LOT of his character. Dumblederanged is best.

#6. the hallows were powerful, not all-powerful. the death story was just a myth. james owned the cloak when he made the map.

#4 I like it how easily the thing we consider good and nice can turn into a bully. Too common around here too.
fandsor
If all the Houses are making statements like that, it speaks to the kind of trauma Slytherin has inflicted on them all.
NotWhatYouPlanted
I don't know. I think if you behave the way they're describing, you have earned that. Those accusations aren't baseless. (1/2)
Showmeyourotters
Yeah, it's not baseless just overly generalized. Most the student ones we meet are shitheads, but the story's told from their nemesis house.
Showmeyourotters
For all we know some of them could've gotten along quite well with Hufflepuffs and Ravenclaw.
NotWhatYouPlanted
In the future Slytherin I know things change, but during the books they're a bunch of assholes for a lot of it. (2/2)
ovelanimimerkki
I was referring to how different extremes consider themselves so utterly correct, that they actually turn into bullies. I can't really >
ovelanimimerkki
explain it better with this character cap.
InfinitlyMoreBored
Some of the Slytherins were assholes for sure but most of the Gryffindors hated the first year Slytherins when they first got there

With that pikachu one, man... how great would it be if someone had an Optimus Prime patronus?

Reading that toilet seat joke in Philosophers Stone when I was 11, I actually lold.
JimTheIconDaher
#8 I'm 10000% sure that's still 100% Harry Potter.
amglasgow
#6 Moody's eye could see through it too. It wasn't un-defeatable, it was just specifically designed to hide from death in particular.
themarquisdesade
I just realized - Hermione says no one knows what a boggart looks like in it's natural state, but Moody would know, wouldn't he?
BurningPotato
It is assumed by some that it's just some form of smoke, in the books it's described (in Lupos' class) to poof into smoke and vanish.
PotatoPotates
That was actually just a folkstale myth. The three deathly Hallows were just very strong magical items created by the peveral brothers
GwenShepard1
I've never thought about it, but that makes sense
Mavgurian
Citation needed?
CaptainMiffles
naw just common sense. it's a pretty obvious metaphor. if you have the power to control death, people wanna kill you for it. so hide instead
PotatoPotates
I think it more likely that the Peverell brothers were simply gifted, dangerous wizards who succeeded in creating those powerful objects1/2
PotatoPotates
That's a quote from dumbledore from the book google it 2/2
TheKindlyOnes
Yes, and dumbledore was completely infallible as we know!
tommywiseauisfedupwiththisworld
Gosh do I hate tumblr
Pyranamus
I don't think #6 really understands the metaphor. The wand and the stone attracted death because they were high profile magical items, which
SpeakerForTheUnLiving
Not to mention death made that cloak.
Pyranamus
Caused people to kill the owner to get them. However, the cloak was perfect for hiding from those desperate enough to kill for power.
insertclevernameshere
Can we talk about hating Umbridge more than vokdemort for an entire book? Like f u J.K. for writing such a terribly convincing character.
AwesomeFox42
*clip clop clip clop*
insertclevernameshere
Hahaha perfect
acunninglinguist
I hear she based the character of Umbridge off of Kelly Ann Conway.
bitchinmona
Nah. Betsy DeVos.
Wesmas
I think Umbridge is a more vile character than voldemort. He might be evil, but she is 7 shades of fucked up.
Showmeyourotters
He's evil who's blunt about his intentions. She's evil disguised as happy kitty cats wearing little pink lacey dresses.
Showmeyourotters
JUST a book?
ThePillowman
#12 is what happens in The Cursed Child, and it's handled pretty damn well.
emendy
I was told this was awful fan fiction with terrible blemishes, and thus something to be avoided. Much like spattergoit.

Nah, I like it, it really goes in depth to explore how Draco's and Harry's sons hate living in their shadow, Scorpio is fantastic as 1/?
ThePillowman
a kind and funny character, consistently haunted by the image of a death eater for a father, while Albus is selfish but justified when 2/?
ThePillowman
The glory of his father means he is shunned when he fails to retain the same talent. The criticism surrounding it that it acts like 3/?
ThePillowman
Fan fiction is because it was written for stage, which limits how much action can be depicted, so dialogue and character is priority 4/?

I too understood that reference, but is too lazy to find and post a proper reaction gif.

I applaud your effort anyway
ApotheosisCM
The Harry Potter universe is on of the few fantasy universes that would actually be awesome to live in.
GeeeButtersnaps
Except where a bunch of kids get attacked at school by a cult
baronluke
assssss long as you aren't in the same year as harry potter. Because that shit was stressful
ElbowDeepinaTinyOctopus
Until you go to jail and have your soul literally eaten by a bunch of fear-ghost-wraith-things.
PandraPierva
I'd rather live in a few differing anime ones myself...Toriko would be amazing in the oddest of ways
Showmeyourotters
It's probably the only series where literally all the strife the characters go through would be totally worth it imo. Magic is a big enough
Showmeyourotters
pro that I feel like I'd be totally ok with "Oh no there's a giant snake that never quite killed anyone" and "Ohey that weird kid with the
Showmeyourotters
glasses isn't even 17" and even "Oh fuck you-know-who's back better go into hiding". Mind, I've already accepted that I'd be in Hufflepuff.
Textuality
Except you wouldn't be a "main character", you'd be a random character who dies or gets turned into a ghost to prove how dangerous stuff is.
Showmeyourotters
Exactly, I wouldn't be a main character so it'd be much easier to avoid death in most cases. All you'd have to do is not do anything to get
Showmeyourotters
yourself targeted during Voldemort's power. Lay low, maybe leave the UK for a bit and you'll most likely be ok.
Textuality
It's a tough line to walk. If you're not vital to the story, you could die just to show the villain's dangerous. Or you MIGHT be safe. :)
Notracistgrandpa
Ummm living in rivendell would be fucking great. It even has a song by Rush

I'm sorry I couldn't live in a world that argog and his kids thrived in

I wouldn't mind living in the star wars universe, not as anything significant, but like a middle class citizen on any planet would be cool

As long as it isn't Alderaan.

What if you are living in it but you're just a muggle
Showmeyourotters
Then everything's the same, but at least my husband can be a god damn wizard and literally charm the pants off me.
Mavgurian
Then there is just hoping that Oliver Woods is gay and into middle aged muggle men. (Should he look like his actor.)
ApotheosisCM
Then it's just this universe and it sucks, but it's better than fucking Middle Earth or Westeros.
OfficialJoeBiden
I'll take middle earth.
Ohhhlookaunicorneatingasamurai
How do you know? LOTR might have been millions of years ago then time caught up to GOT and now we are living HP
SquidJesus
If it was we would have found shit. We lack shit, in case you didn't notice.
Ohhhlookaunicorneatingasamurai
Maybe we just aren't looking in the right places. Or you know, magic.
SilverEtchegaray
Who the crap WANTS to live in Westeros? I mean Middle Earth, okay, I see the appeal, but freaking Westeros is just a death wish!
fitlex
Screw Middle Earth, just be chilling in Valinor with all the jillion year old elves while all the mortal plebs go around dying or whatever
cheeseguy3412
Depends on what age you live in - as one of the Children of the Forest pre-men might be ok
SilverEtchegaray
You have a point!
Pycnonemosaurus
Middle Earth would suck ass if you weren't an elf, a hobbit, or a main character, and even then it sucks ass for them too, e.g. Boromir
SilverEtchegaray
Well yeah, family drama is common no matter where you are. Some people just have more of it.
Longinus212
Unless you live in one of the free cities and aren't a slave. Or live in Dorne.
SilverEtchegaray
I have this feeling Dorne is fixing to get a lot more involved anyway. And I really don't wanna be anywhere on Westeros for the winter! Lol

Have you tried living in Warhammer yet? THAT my friend is a death wish, unless you're a space marine......or an inquisitor. Even then, it's

Especially since all their major threats could be tackled with the simple application of one mad cunt and a gun. Seriously, wands are 1/2
DickDastardly404
Bullshit for combat. Dual wielding a glock and a shield spell, however, makes you the most dangerous thing on two legs. 2/2

muggle devices do not work properly in the magic world
DickDastardly404
Thats not quite accurate though. I think it was stated that electronic devices don't work at Hogwarts and other placed of high magical 1/2

snfjnfjdbdksbcj
I think about this a lot. Electricity, internet, etc. all produced by wizards for us because they wanted to make our lives better (1)
snfjnfjdbdksbcj
But didn't want to expose themselves and cause tension or have us ask for shit. "They'll just explain this stuff away to themselves" (2/2)
