Interesting little detail about why Hermione is suddenly bad at potions, which also feeds into how you could've figured out it was Snape: Snape always puts his potion recipes on the blackboard, while Slughorn goes strictly by the book. Snapes method means his improvements are already incorporated in it.

There are a couple of important things that are discussed in the books but only alluded to in the movie. First, Voldemort did not expect Draco to succeed in getting rid of Dumbledore. He gave the boy the job as punishment for Lucius Malfoy’s failures, The diary Horcrux was destroyed in Lucius’s plot to open the Chamber of Secrets & then he failed to retrieve the prophecy from the Dept. of Mysteries. Voldemort was furious so he gave Draco a job he thought the boy couldn’t accomplish then told the Malfoys that he would kiII the boy if he failed. That’s why Narcissa Malfoy went to Snape. Snape knew about the plan because Voldemort, believing Draco would fail, told him with the understanding that Snape would do it after Draco tried. Second, everyone who watches the movies but doesn’t read the books is confused about the Horcruxes. Tom Riddle asked Slughorn about splitting his SOUL into 7 pieces. One piece has to remain in his body so he planned to create SIX Horcruxes. He had already made one -the ring he was wearing-so he needed to know if it was safe to split his soul again. Once Slughorn confirmed it was possible to split the soul more than once young Tom Riddle set out to make 5 more. It was the original part of his tattered soul that fled the Potter’s house after the failed attack on baby Harry. Voldemort’s body was destroyed so that piece of his soul fled to Albania & hid. Quirrel stumbled upon it while he was in Albania studying vampires & bought it back to Britain. It was that piece of his soul that Pettigrew used to resurrect Voldemort in Goblet of Fire.

Sorry for shouting but THIS STRAIGHT UP DIDN’T HAPPEN AND DOES NOTHING FOR THE PLOT. There are countless, documented reasons why this wouldn’t even be possible! It undermines the beginning of the next book/story for reasons I won’t divulge.

Slughorn was the head of Slytherin House before Snape! Also there are much more young Tom memories in the book. Cho finished school this year, she was year older than Harry. Ginny was done very poorly in movies, she is amazing in books. Severus was half muggle, his mom was a witch and her maiden name was Prince, that's why he took that name. This fact was only in the books

Snape actually taught Harry about using a bezoar to treat poison on his first day in class. Also in the Half-Blood Prince's book, it says to just shove a bezoar down their throat for poisoned victims.

I don't blame you for being confused by the title "The Half-Blood Prince" because the movie completely removes the explanation. As you speculated, Snape is a "Half-Blood", with a muggle father and a witch mother. His mother's maiden name was "Prince". Because his magical heritage was passed through his mother's line he took to calling himself "The Half-Blood Prince" in his personal writings. The book actually spends a lot of time in the past. You only get a couple quick flashbacks to a young Tom Riddle in the movie, but the book details a lot more about both Tom Riddle's youth and also gives some more details on Snape.

The scene where Ron fell off the back of the couch was actually an outtake but it was so much funnier than the actual scene that they left it in

But Lucius fails, and gets sent to Azkaban on top of it. This movie Voldy is punishing Lucius by assigning his son an impossible task, where Draco will either have to become a murderer, or be killed. Things are not going well for the Malfoy family at this point.

She’s never mentioned in the movies, but Nymphadora Tonks, the witch with the purple hair who first appeared in Order of the Phoenix, is Andromeda’s daughter.

You have mentioned a few times about Voldermorts appearance. The book explains that it is because of splitting his soul that his appearance started to become more blurred and less human. Which suited Voldermort because he didnt want to look like his muggle father. Definitely read the books - they go into back stories for Dumbledore, Voldermort, SNape and other characters that they just do not have time to go into in the films. Yes, Snape is a half blood - his father was a muggle. And why the book was there - it was Snapes cupboard - he used to be the potion master. There are also a number of things that go on in the books to support the story that might come up in book 1 and you don't even realise it is something of importance until say book 5. Nothing in the books is just there. Everything is important, you just don't necessarily know why for a long time And no, when you read the books, the relationship with Ginny is most definitely not out of left field.

One thing I do like about these books/movies is that they don't shy away from the horrors of war. It's terribly sad and tragic, but beloved people are lost.

I really do wish we could have seen Richard Harris play Dumbledore in these later films. Michael Gambon is good, but I was so curious to see how Harris would have played it, especially in this film. I think he would have been amazing. I think the original Dumbledore showed great contrast. He was so gentle and seemed mildly amused by things for the most part, but every once in a while you'd see some power come out of him -- like when there was the troll in the dungeon and everyone's freaking out, and Dumbledore's voice BOOMS with authority in that moment, silencing everyone, and then he calmly tells them to go back to their dorms, etc. It's moments like that when I wonder how amazing he would have been playing Dumbledore in the 5th and 6th films.

Professor Dumbledore's death was one of the most traumatic for Harry to witness. Right alongside his parents' murder at the hands of Voldemort when he was 15 months old, Cedric Diggory at the ratty (pun fully intended) hands of Wormtail during the last task of the Triwizard Tournament in that graveyard, and Sirius dying at the hands of his psychotic cousin Bellatrix Lestrange before he disappeared into the Veil in the Ministry Of Magic. Also, this is one of the few times Ron is shown to be intelligent in the movies. The scene on the Hogwarts Express where he's explaining the Unbreakable Vow to Harry, specifically. The wizard's chess scenes from Philosopher's Stone is another. I think another good example is the good questions he was asking in Chamber Of Secrets when Harry found that crumpled up book page in Hermione's hand.

Death Eaters referred to Voldemort as The Dark Lord. Back when he was in power before Harry's parents get killed, anyone who said "Voldemort" would be found by death eaters, due to a spell or curse put on the name thay traced the person who says it, more or less. Since Death Eaters don't say his name, it was assuming that only his enemies were bold enough to use his name outright. And Voldemort started to look more snakelike as he made more and more horcruxes. I assume his features looking snake-like was due to his lineage having a connection to snakes, but I can't recall a more specific reason given.

And to echo what you said, in Sorcerer’s Stone, Ollivander himself acknowledges that, “After all, He-Who-Must-Not-Be-Named did Great things. TERRIBLE, yes, but Great.” Great does not have to mean Good. From his youth, Voldemort was never a good person (and yes I read the books and know what he went through, but like people with antisocial personality disorder and sadistic/psychotic tendencies, as a child, he liked to hurt other beings. Not good) but he was practically always capable of massively powerful magic.

@@Mant111Agree completely. The invented scene where they burn up the Weasley’s house is so ridiculous it’s baffling. Would be the icing on the cake of disaster. Could’ve at least used those minutes to explore more of Voldemort’s past…

Voldemort doesn't know Love It's the one magic he doesn't understand and therefore he has no loved ones or people he actually cares about. But you could say that he appreciates his snake Nagini as a very loyal companion

“Let the steps be connected in harmony.” This is the translation for the Latin phrase Harmonia Nectere Passus that Draco used when he was trying to get the vanishing cabinet in the Room of Requirement to work.

Both of ya’ll have such genuinely beautiful smiles ❤

Thank you!

The final line of this movie still perplexes me. You're telling me that Harry Potter, the orphan boy who grew up In the cupboard under the stairs of an abusive home, who discovered a world of magic at the age of 11 and called Hogwarts his home after one school year, has NEVER realized "how beautiful this place was"!?

I think that was his way of verbalizing the fact he truly believed he would never see Hogwarts again, that he would go off on this quest he wasn't entirely certain he would survive. The last look at something you love. . . is probably when it will look the most beautiful to you.

Agreed. I think they could have worded it a little differently. Maybe like, (amidst all the dark stuff going on) "Sometimes I forget just how beautiful this place is." Or "We need to remember how beautiful this place is." Or something. 🤷‍♀

The bezoar is first mentioned when Snape questions Harry in his first potions class.

One thing that was left out of the last movie since they didn't show any quidditch at all was that Ginny joined the team and became the backup seeker. She had to play in one of the games because Umbridge had Harry in detention, and she managed to win the game for them. They also had to have extra backups and replace players because of Umbridge. Hence why Harry says just because they were on the team the year before doesn't guarantee them a spot this year. Harry knowing about the Bezoar to save Ron actually goes back to his very first potion class. One of the questions Snape asked him was about a Bezoar and he then told him that a Bezoar was a stone taken from the stomach of a goat that can save you from most poisons. So, it's actually thanks to Snape that Ron survived that incident.

The bezoar was also mentioned again by Snape in this movie, though through the HBP book. In the book Harry finds a mention of the bezoar again, and what it does and since Harry spent a lot of time reading through the book throughout the year he remembered it.

@@nemangameyes, and it’s also close at hand in Slughorn’s bag because Harry turned it in as a snarky answer to the “create an antidote to your assigned poison” task. He saw the note about bezoars in his textbook next to the notes on antidotes and got a laugh out of Slughorn.

I always thought Harry's comment about being on the team last year not guaranteeing them a spot this year was relating to what Katie said in the book. When she asked Harry to tell her when tryouts would be, he told her she didn't need to try out, because she was already on the team. She told him that was the wrong attitude to take, that teams had gone downhill before because the captain chose to keep the old players instead of looking for new talent.

Fun fact: Alan Rickman (the actor that played Snape) had a spastic palate which affected his ability to move his jaw...which is why he spoke that way! His delivery of the dialogue really suits Snape's character, he did an amazing job! ❤

I'm sure you were warned that the movies get increasingly dark as the danger grows. You start to realize that no one is safe. This truly becomes a battle between good and evil with a high cost to all involved. I respect the fact that you accepted Dumbledore was actually dead; most people watching this series for the first time believe Dumbledore isn't dead, though the story repeats that the killing curse is not reversible.

This is a definite turning point in the series!!!

I heard that Radcliffe was actually going through a bit of a drinking priblem during the shooting for this. Appaently he was kinda drunk during the liquid luck scene... which honestly helped sell it way better.

Nick - I don't know if you figured this out, but Professor Slughorn is played by the same actor who plays Professor Diggory (the old man) in Narnia: The Lion, The Witch, and the Wardrobe.

In the memory where Tom asked Slughorn about Horcruxes, Tom had already made a horcrux. The ring he was wearing. That was the first horcrux. (I believe) The question he wanted answered was more along the lines of "Can one make more than one horcrux?"

Love the way you watch movies together on here. You both seem so chill, funny and intelligent. Much love ❤️

@@marshallpeters7174 I apologize for the confusion. I meant both were talked about. Draco talked about the threats made towards him, but his mother and aunt told Snape of the threats against their family... Or did I get that part wrong? You very likely know much more than I do. Was that what happened? But about my previous post, I wasn't clear in what I meant. Apologies

There's a very important scene in this movie, that we don't really know how important it is until 1-2 movies later, and you guys asked the *right* question while you were watching it. The movies omit so much stuff from the books, but this particular one is so well done, so subtle at first, but when you know everything, your brain goes like "oh, OH!".

Dumbledore is 115 years old. Lmaoo dumbledore is really OP. THE most powerful wizard. A genius since childhood. And the movies don’t show the rest of the memories but here’s his kills to make the horcruxes: Myrtle- the diary His muggle father- the ring A muggle homeless man- the locket The fourth horcrux- A witch who had the object passed down in her family. The fifth horcrux- a random muggle who lived in Albania. The sixth horcrux- Bertha Jorkins, a witch killed right before Harry’s 4th year.

Harry often mentions Voldemort's name and sometimes even flippantly because he is ignorant and doesn't know the potential consequences. The older wizards and witches who lived through the previous war understand the significance of saying his name out loud, and even though the war is long over, they still fear mentioning it. During the war, Voldemort's name was under a spell. When his opponents mentioned him by his name, they summoned the Death Eaters and were killed.

1:07:48 It was taught to Harry by Snape in his fist potions lesson with Snape in Philosophers Stone.

The millennium bridge is the bridge at the beginning..it actually did collapse once when it was first built, so quite a reference there

2:21:54 The change in actor playing Dumbledore was due to the actor who originally played him having lymphatic cancer and ending up passing away.

His dad was a muggle and his mom was a witch with the last name Prince.

Im reference to Dumbledores hand, In the scene where he and Harry were discussing the Horcruxs’ Dumbledore told Harry the horcrux is hard to find but every harder to destroy (then he held up his hand with the black from the curse on it) that means he tried to destroy the ring but it cursed him.

Based off this reaction, I’m so excited for you guys to finish this.

The bezoar was in Slughorn's office because during one of the classes in the book, he'd read across a list of antidotes in the Half Blood Prince's book 'just shove a bezoar down their throat'. He wasn't able to make an antidote so he ran to the stock cupboard and grabbed a bezoar. Slughorn found it hilarious and praised him for it and put it in his bag. That's why Harry knows there's a bezoar there and uses it to save Ron.

I love how the movie gives Draco more depth.

You’re gonna love the books! The first two books are middle grade level but then the rest kind of get more complex, the series “grows with the readers”

Can you imagine an entire movie theater full of sobbing people when this came out? Not a dry eye.

I'm glad you guys like Lavender! She is such a real teenage girl. So many people hate her because they feel bad for Hermione, but it's Ron that's being dumb

38:26 The book provides instructions to brew an "acceptable" version of Draught of Living Death. Otherwise, anyone could brew it. Only the advanced wizards know the actual version of the potion by practice and experience. It's a death potion. One drop is enough to kill a lot of people.

In the book the theres a lot of info 1 - harry gave the money he won from the tournament to the twins so they could open their shop! 2- Belatrix and Narcissa are sisters and Sirius is Bellatrix cousin, The Black family is a big Slytherin family with Sirius being one of the only onrs to go to griffindor instead. Also means Sirius is Draco's uncle

In the book, Harry did tell Dumbledore of his suspicions of Malfoy, and the conversation he overheard between Snape and Malfoy. Dumbledore thanked Harry for telling him, but didn't feel it was anything to be concerned about.

Snape’s mother was Ilene Prince, who married a muggle named Tobias Snape. Hence Severus is the half-blood Prince.

I remember reading this book back when I worked at Old Navy. I got to the cave part and was reading in the back room at work. I was bawling my eyes out in the back room when Dumbledore died. It was the worst. I remember it like it was yesterday. I still cry ever time I watch this movie.
