I'd be able to see Charlie's point to a limited degree if it weren't for the fact that Harry Potter is almost entirely fixed to Harry's perspective. In order to have a dedicated death scene for every character, Harry would have to be present every time someone dies. They're at war, there's a lot at play, and we're only following what Harry sees of it, so there's naturally a lot happening off screen.

Surprisingly I'm actually with Andrew and Jackson on this one, especially when it comes to Fred's death. It happening off screen is intentional, and Harry finding out like that is very realistic, that's one of the scariest things about war. You can only do so much, you can't always be there to have one of your guy's back, or to even see what happened. You finally get a chance to recover and rest, but then you find out someone you cared about died, and you didn't even know. That will haunt you just as much as witnessing it. The lack of emotional build up and sudden shock of learning about their death, often as you see their corpse, is the way it often goes. It's cold, sudden, and you don't get time to even really process it.

The one thing I can completely agree with Jackson and Andrew is the emotional impact of finding out that Fred died. To me it his hard because it was so random and we didn't know what was going on until it showed the body. Him getting blasted by a spell on screen wouldn't have made anyone cry, but seeing his whole family cry hit different imo. It also made Harry feel completely powerless because people are dying in places even where he isn't, so it made him want to give himself up.

Ye, also imagine Charlie's version the movie, it'd literally be like 90% just establishing that a character died in a certain way. At a certain point it just becomes gratuitous, especially a series with so many characters. Not every character can have a specific death scene, then a scene of their family grieving. Its a balancing act between trying to have each death be impactful, but showing literally every death end on end takes all the impact away also.

@@ScooterCat64 Well, the offscreen death's in part7 didn't do it for me. There's a good way to do offscreen deaths and there's a bad way. An example of a well-done offscreen death is Barty Crouch Sr. in part4. It needed to be not shown for shock value, since they needed to set up the big reveal scene. Also, we never saw Barty's combat prowess, so no fan would be mad not seeing the explicit way he fell. On the other hand, how they did the Mad-Eye Moody death is literally spitting in the mouth of all fans of HP. We saw a powerhouse of a professor, who was presented as Harry's guardian, basically Dumbledores Left Hand man, just be written off midflight... gone... **poof**... and no one even comments on it further or reacts in any way. He's just gone and never mentioned again. His death had no meaning, or at least it felt that way to me. At least Hedwig died contributing something to the fight. The Remus and Fred deaths were similarly awfull. I see a lot of people mentioning how it made the final fight feel impactfull. Umm, how exactly? We follow Harry's "treadmill" like POV, then we hear some folks are dead out of nowhere? But... Voldemort has killed waaaay more important people to Harry before... and the big baddie is still there, alive and well, as well as all his henchmen.... So the new deaths of all these beloved characters did nothing to increase the tension or Harry's determination. He still follows the same treadmill-like events regardless, giving himself up. If you're gonna have them die pointless deaths, then at least do us the service of seeing how they fell. Perhaps in flashbacks or dreams, the way they did it in previous movies. And don't give me that bullsh** argument of "the story sticks strictly to Harry's POV" for immersions sake. Where the f was Harry during Bellatrix's death? Was he also there next to Neville giving him a pep-talk? Did he observe all the fights with a spyglass, is he perhaps omnipotent or maybe he just felt the morbid need to check what everyone was doing on his map somehow? Give me a break...

The movies have removed this element. They removed/changed a lot of elements to the original story in fact, particularly why Peter lets the thug go. The original story still works great, because it still feels real. If anything it can feel more real. Also, the sad part is that Peter never gets proper closure with his uncle. In both of the films dealing with his origin he has a falling out with Uncle Ben just before he's killed. In the OG comic there isn't any such thing. Peter thinks the absolute world of his aunt and uncle. Personally I'd much rather they keep to the original, or at least for the next inevitable retelling try to keep some of those elements intact.

Story time: The reason they cut out Fred's death in DH2 is because of Percy. There is an entire arc in books 4-7 about Percy's decline and redemption from Ministry worshipper to fighting along side his family. Percy was known to be the most serious in the family and never made jokes, so after he made up with his family, Percy joked to one of the death eaters after knocking him out and Fred laughs and says "You actually are joking, Perce ... I don't think I've heard you joke since you were -" This is when Fred gets blown up, being killed instantly. The book goes out of its way to say that Fred's laugh is engraved on his mouth even after he died. If they had changed Fred's death then the people who read the books would be upset that his death was altered, so they just show his corpse and Harry's reaction.

He did understand it, but Charlie’s binary view of this made the discussion confusing. Dying off screen isn’t inherently bad. The writing can be good or bad either way and the choice of showing a death or not is just that, a choice. You can write both of those choices well, and whether the right choice was made for a given situation, is debatable. Charlie, however was speaking as if it is never debatable, so anytime Andrew tried to talk about how some of the deaths were arguably addressed fine to good in his opinion, Charlie just kept repeating “died off screen” as if it was a hard counter, end of discussion rebuttal. That is illogical. So, Andrew thought Charlie was basically just saying the writing was super flippant with the deaths, where they maybe weren’t even mentioned or just hardly at all, when really, he was just literally repeating died off screen = bad writing. Again, that is illogical so that is why there was so much confusion. Rare L from Jesus himself

Fred's death scene in the book (Sorry for formatting issues): "Harry looked around and his heart seemed to fail: Death Eaters had penetrated Hogwarts. Fred and Percy had just backed into view, both of them dueling masked and hooded men. .... "You actually are joking, Perce. . . . I don’t think I’ve heard you joke since you were-“ The air exploded. .... “No-no-no!” someone was shouting. “No! Fred! No!” And Percy was shaking his brother, and Ron was kneeling beside them, and Fred’s eyes stared without seeing, the ghost of his last laugh still etched upon his face." (I used ellipsis to skip a bunch of dialogue and description, but his death was very much on screen.)

im with andrew on this one in the harry potter debate, the offscreen deaths of those characters are not consequential to the movie overall greatness. Harry potter movie scenes are usually in the 3rd person POV of harry himself. if they died out of Harry pov, then of course it will be an off screen death. Most deaths that happened onscreen has all been witnessed by Harry(even through voldemorts visions).

I feel that Fred dying off screen adds to the effect of how unpredictable and uncontrollable the war is. It let's the audience feel as shattered and suprised about Fred's death as Harry. Do you think Harry or Fred's family were lucky enough to see how he died? That's just how it is sometimes, makes no sense to expect that every single death should be shown on screen. That's as silly as an opinion that all movies must have a happy ending.

They could have showed they're death but I think just showing the corpse at the end of the battle worked better for those specific characters. i think moodys death could have been done better but moodys biggest problem in the film series was that his only big appearance was an impersonation we don't even know if he was what Crouch jr portrayed which made his death insignificant for me.

"Why weren't UK houses built with AC?" must rank for sheer intelligence alongside a British person being stunned to find that their rental in Florida or Cali doesn't have a roaring fireplace. Historically, only the most extreme outlying weather would have made it necessary. It's very easy to find AC units if they're important to you, and the more that heatwaves become normal the more common they'll become. Many homes are also having heat pumps installed for more efficient heating, and which can be reversed to cool the home. I like having four distinct seasons with little to no extreme weather. Other opinions are available. Seeing people genuinely suffer in 15C weather is just as funny to us as our dislike of heat is to these guys.

I just had to skip the last 2 3rds of that section. It was just awful listening to Charlie call it lazy writing just because it has dramatic moments without everything being an action scene. He really should just stick to Mission Impossible and the like.

I've been listening to the earlier episodes with guests and such and coming back to the current episodes they seem so much more cynical and bitter

Honestly yeah that’s something I’ve been thinking about for a while now, the “we’ve struck gold” episode (293?) really cemented what you’re saying for me. I feel like Kaya’s saved the boys from getting into some heated arguments ironically enough.

I think Charlie was trolling this episode he was smiling the whole time 😂😂😂😂

Being from Florida 30C is a nice cool day for summer, even fall and spring

I'm European. Idk what hellhole Kaya lives in but. 1: We have AC. 2: We don't hate on you having AC, idk where that comes from. And 3: Our houses are way better isolated then US houses. You know, we use actual bricks to make a house. 😮 Btw, the UK is not Europe.

@@WyvernU What i mean is the UK is not representative for the entirety of Europe. I should have been more specific. Point is they are different. They even drive on the other side of the road. And yeah a lot of people in different countries don't have AC, because they can't afford it. Not because they hate it and hate Americans for it that's ridiculous. The superiority thing Americans have bugs me so hard. Most of them have never even been to another country. There are way cooler and way more "free" countries out there.

Black pudding is an odd thing because on paper, is sounds absolutely vile, but what you’re supposed to do is cut it into slices then fry it and it’s genuinely quite nice

Aye, i was shaving with a Harry's for the first 20 minutes of this, right up till the ad.:))))

Guess I am a US citizen then, in the UK with my ac unit blasting all day. Also have fttp 500 Mbps down 80 up and born here so...

I have never been more surprised in my life, to NOT see everyone in the comments talking about how you DO see Fred die on screen in the movie... They literally show it when Voldemort calls for the ceasefire. So weird to see such a long passionate debate when none of them care or know anything about Harry Potter haha. Was fun to listen to though.

So siked, on a road trip and was looking for something to listen to

Kaya once again misrepresenting environmental issues. A/C units aren't "causing global warming", they're extremely energy inefficient, and are being replaced by heat pumps which are efficient and keep interiors cooler or warmer depending on the season. Nobody suggested to "get rid of your AC and die". Energy inefficiency is a contributing factor to climate change, and things like replacing conditioners with heat pumps is a good thing.

The heat is different in different areas too. Arizona and Houston are notorious for crazy high temps but i promise you they feel drastically different due to humidity. Also, there are still some places that it isn’t commonplace (or is just now becoming common place) to have an AC in homes/apartments/buildings. It is very common to also buy small window units (opposed to installation of a central cooling system throughout the building), i figured it was also common to do things like this in EU.

In this episode of the boys talk about stuff they straight up have no idea about

Read the books last month, it is a very emotional moment Fred’s death, but it’s only very impactful if you see more and know more about Percy and how he behaved. If the movies, showed Percy’s relations with his family more and then showed Fred’s his last moment it would’ve been an amazing addition

I agree with Kaya, every death scene in any movie needs a Mortal Kombat X-ray slow motion breakdown.

Not sitting through an hour in a half for moist to call him a goober that being the worst argument they've ever had 😂

Jesus get a representative from the UK on there haha, the Internet over here is good for the vast majority of people (public wifi is pretty bad though). Most people dont eat spotted dick and jellied eels, we eat a lot of other countries cuisine most of the time. And most of the UK outside of London is great, jacksons really painting a bad and unrealistic picture of the UK 🤣

As someone in Melbourne, yes we do have Italian restaurants.. Wtf Jackson? 😂

These podcast episodes are dope. Keep them coming.

Bruh, bubble and squeak and toad in the whole are some of the most slapping meals, just go make it and tell me it isn't great

I love the gag of only one member of the official having their camera on lol

I really don't get Charlie's point. I understand not liking off-screen deaths when there's no emotional weight attached to it, but as Andrew and Jackson said, you see Fred's family mourning his death. At that point I don't really care whether I saw him die or not.

Wormtail wasn't even killed off screen. He died on "screen" in the book but the movie just cut the scene for no reason and never established that he was dead.

I think they have a inside joke where they will never have all 4 cameras on, and they always decide who will have there cam on or off this episode, and sometimes pull the ultimate tease by having 3 cameras on 🤣

this was probably the worst episode yet, the arguing and soulless commentary is so damn boring

Living in the UK, and having worked in both mobile and broadband tech, I can say with confidence that a large majority of buildings in the UK are not equipped to have wifi or mobile signal work very well. With them being old, the materials used to build them were from a time before any kind of signals related to either existed, which resulted in materials being used that signal tends to have difficulty travelling through, which is why more modern properties have better wifi coverage. Gigabit internet is also not quite as widespread as other countries
