Mistakes in the two movies

Postby joedeg3 » Friday 25 April 2003 9:43:31pm

There are quite a few mistakes in the two movies, especially in Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone.

To see all the movie mistakes in the first movie, Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone, go to my website at:
http://www.geocities.com/joedegharrypotter/movie1mistakes.htm

To see all the movie mistakes in the second movie, Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets, go to my website:

Please tell me what you think about the mistakes.

hrmm, just one little problem...

Clicked on the second link... and it took me to a page that according to the title had the mistakes from chamber of secrets...
Unfortunately, all the writing under the title was the same as that from the Philisophers stone page...

you missed some mistakes

1. when Justin is attacked.
Harry is in the library and he looks at Ginny who is busy writing...he gets up and leaves but noone else does so Ginny must still be in the library but as soon as he leave Harry hears the voice and follows it to Justin
But Ginny is the one who opens the chamber so how did the basilisk get out because she was in the library

2. Harry says he set a python on Dudley...he didnt, he set a Boa constrictor from brazil on him in the books.....but i think they had a burmese python in movie one which is wrong

3. the sword is a paperknife, it has absoloutly no weight to it at all and looks very tacky and plasticy yet it was over a 1000 years old because it belonged to Godric Gryffindor and therefore it should have been a proper working broadsword weapon and not an ornamental fake thing

4. in the quidditch, when Harry is rolling around to avoid the bludger he quite clearly puts all his weight on his 'broken' arm and then next time we look at him he has the arm he was leaning on rested across his knee because its broken

5. what kind of books has Hermione been reading for her to know what mudblood means?? In the book she doesn't know what a mudblood is...Ron has to explain....and why would she know when she gets all her information from books and i really cant see hermione reading the kind of book that would tell her what a mudblood is....

In the first movie

In the first Movie Hermione doesn't have any problem saying "Voldemort" when Harry Comes back from the Forbidden Forest. Hermione says "Who's the one wizard VOLDEMORT always feared?"

:lol: You guys didn't know yet huh! :razz: It's the movie by the way.. Movies will never stick to every little details in the book. they changed it a little like every other movies that are base on books. LotR is one of it. That's why it's Hollywood.... To be truthful, I don't really like HP movie at all :-? . Between Cartoon and Movie, i'll choose cartoon, and between cartoon and books, i'll pick books... :razz: SOmehow i think the movies have ruined my image of HP. :-?

The Brazil/Burmese snake Sonkem points out was such a glaring error even my parents spotted it!! I mean why change it? It's not necessary.

ALso the first movie refers to the DARK forest not the FORBIDDEN forest. Not sure if that's an american book film carryover as it may be called the dark forest in american books.
