When has this ever been said in the movies?
Okay, so I'm watching PoA and I notice something. Never do they say that Lupin, Sirius, or James are Moony, Padfoot, or Prongs. I find this very odd. Does Harry know in the movies or not? And if they have said it in the movies, can you please tell me what part? Very curious.
It was never mentioned in the movies but hearing Voldemort refer to Peter Pettigrew as "Wormtail" in GOF, it was easy for me to figure out which were Mooney, Padfoot, and Prongs. Mooney would be Lupin since he turns into a werewolf at the site of a full moon and I looked up the word "Pad" on the dictionary and it states that its the "fleshy underside of the end of a finger or toe". Dogs have padfoots and since we see Sirius turn himself into a dog, that makes him Padfoot which leaves James Potter as Prongs.

OK... I am very curious as to why James was called Prongs. We do not know what he did to earn all the Gold Harry had been left. I'm going to research 'Prongs'... I might come up with somthing VERY exciting and relevant... Can someone help me please? We might find out more about james...
I'm guessing they thought you'd've known who they were already..
Most fans who already know what's going on See the Movies, not people trying to understand everything for the first time..
😖
Well, to the average person who never read the books, it must be much confusing. To us people it isn't because we basically know the books back to front (and yet we still don't know them that well). As to the why James is Prongs, yes, that is very interesting question. Research it. And I think the director or screenwriter is asking a bit much to ask the audience to piece Moony with Lupin, Prongs with James, and Sirius with Padfoot.
Originally posted by ladygrimHow many people know what the hell a padfoot is? Hmm?! I'm serious, who teaches that in school? What kind of vocabulary do you have?! No, but seriously. They barely say the names enough to put the connections on who is who.
Kinda easy to figure out tho whos who with out reading the books cuz Lupin becomes werewolf Sirius in to a dog So on not overly hard to figure
Originally posted by d-fly_girl008OKAY! People. Not all people know what the **** prongs are! Use your brains. People who have only seen it once, who would be able to make the connection right away? They don't know the characters that well for that.
james is called prongs cause his animiagus was a deer with ANTLERS!!! can't you put that connections together?? DUH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
everyone has their own special patronus form, i don't know why hermione's is an otter, but i know that harry's is a deer or buck or whatever animal his dad turned into because of voldemort killing his dad b4 he even knew him. and patronuses can change like tonks did when she was in love with lupin but he said they couldn't be together, remember???

No, but you clearly seem to be respectless...
