First off, I will like to say didn't come up with idea originally, I found it in the X-Men Forum and thought it was an interesting thread so I decided to make one here. Now, this is a forum where we all get to have fun and point out mistakes made in the movie. Such as in Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets where I believe it is the second time Harry sees Dobby, you can see the orange ball that is suppose to be Dobby in Harry's glasses or some of the things between book and movies that were mistaked that happened.

P.S. I have used the search thread and found no similar forums to this. If there is one, I'm deeply sorry but I didn't see it. Now, let the discussions of mistakes, begin!

in sorceror's stone harry is not supposed to see quirrell die, so he shouldn't be seeing the flying horses in ootp. he would have seen them in the second book.

Books that are made into movies are never going to be the same. get it into your thick heads people stick out tongue

Esaul
True. Like with LOTR's, they possibly can't have EVERY single detail.

this thread isnt about what they left out, its about mistakes in the film, like: that kind of stuff

That's movie Crap. Harry doesn't see him die in the books.

Blame Columbus.

Whether Harry saw Quirrel die or not, it wouldn't make him see the flying horse thingies. I'm pretty sure it has to be that you see someone you care about die. That's why Neville could see them, cuz he saw his parents die, I think. Luna could see them because she saw her mom die, I think. And Harry could see them since he saw Cedric die in book four.

Someone check the book!

I think Neville saw his grandpa die. Not his parents, his parents are in St. Mungo's Blah, Blah, Blah.

Yes, I just checked the book, it was his grandad. But it doesn't say that you have to care about the person that you see die. All it says is that you have to see someone die to see the thestrals.

Wasn't it your first time reading the book? You can't memorize everything it says.

I've read it 2 times already and I'm on my 3rd (although I think I'ma stop) that's the only reason I know what it says. I've read it more than once. (it's one of my favies)

In The Chamber of Secrets
during the quidditch game with the crazy bludger
*Harry brakes right arm (if I remember correctly)
*ketchs snitch wit left and falls to the floor
*when bludger comes back for him he rolls
and sits up USING BOTH HANDS
*after hermione distroys bludger and camera goes back to Harry
the broken hand (which was just holding him up)
is laying on Harry's lap

ha! I've read each book a good 30+ times (no life)(except for 6, ive read that 8x)

To see a thestral you have to see somebody die. He doesn't see anyone die before Cedric. He became unconcious before Quirrel died.

"He felts Qurirrell's arm wrenched from his grasp, knew all was lost, and fell into blackness, down...down...down..."

"I arrived just in time to pull Quirrell off you (ohh....a mistake, it should be off of you)"

Okay, I noticed another mistake in the second movie, I don't know if you guys have already pointed this out somewhere else in this forum, but how does the 'flying car' show up outside of the train station when Harry and Ron miss the Hogwart's Express??? Last we saw, it was at the Burrow. The gang used floo powder to get to Diagon Alley . . . confused

allofyousuckkk
thats true^^^*ponders*

at the end of the first movie, ron says he has an erection

(when hermione and ron are on the steps, and harry comes out of the hospitol wing)

Jo Row said that u can only c those horses when the death 'sinks in',n it wud only happen when he'll lose some1 REALLY close 2 him like Sirius so that's y he didn't c them in the 2nd book or after seein all those deaths.

eek! laughing omg, that is sooo messed up, he does

i didnt hear ron say that he (ron) had an erection, i just heard, "he has an erection"

allofyousuckkk
i read an interview when she explains he never saw quirrel die, and he couldn't have his parents deaths sink in because he didn't understand what he had seen. you don't have to be close to someone who dies. "sinking in" does not imply you knew the person, it implies you realize what had just happened. I'm sure of it. I just reread the 5th this week.

I dunno if anyone posted this one, but in the second movie when Hermione is seen brewing the polyjuice potion, turning this time her arm was broken and her you can see her cast(Sp?) I believe. Someone go and comfirm that for me.

spanglerr
ok guys, well here something to think about. Why cant harry see the thesterals from the very begining?? because you need to see someone die, and he sees his mom die.

cpa_parkcity
Cool stuff. I never had noticed those things before.
