#44 Feelings Matter | PoA 7, The Boggart In The Wardrobe

Potter Revisited Episode #44 Feelings Matter AKA Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban, Chapter 7 "The Boggart in the Wardrobe" Even Shay, a Snape fan, can admit he is a dick in this chapter. Lots of Snape Sucks points coming!  Malfoy is obviously faking being injured - would this concern Madame Pomfrey?  Does Snape let Malfoy get away with more than any other student because of Lucius being a Death Eater and wanting to keep and eye on the inner circle for Dumbledore, or does he see parts of himself in Malfoy, and looking to give him the chances he didn't have  Tori feels like Snape really starts acting out - specifically in this chapter- because Lupin is now at Hogwarts and it has thrown him off Draco sits with Harry & Ron in Potions just to bother them about Hagrid  - Ron threatens to give him a real injury + Snape Sucks for mistreating Harry and Ron despite Draco egging them on  We both feel so bad for Neville, everyone can probably relate to having a class you dread because of the teacher  +1 Snape Sucks for Snape bullying Neville to the point of tears  + Snape Sucks for Snape wanting to poison Trevor in front of the whole class  Draco finds out Harry don't know how he is connected to Sirius black and lords it over him - Is Malfoy trying to get Harry to go after Black and get killed? Shay finds Malfoy to be almost a caricature of a classic bully - at least in the early series  +1 Snape Sucks for punishing Hermione for helping Neville save Trevor Some foreshadowing to Hermione's time travel as she was with Harry and Ron up the staircase and then suddenly was at the bottom  Do Harry and Ron not really focus on Hermione obviously having a secret because they don't think she would be doing anything cool or breaking the rules? The students get their first practical lesson for DADA with Lupin - shouldn't they have had one before? Lupin and the students run into Peeves - who treats Lupin a lot different from the other Professors - could this be because he was a Marauder? +1 Snape Sucks for Snape insulting Neville in front of Lupin and the entire class Is Snape projecting his feelings about Lupin being at Hogwarts and targeting Neville instead?  Lupin handles Snape very well by not engaging, and instead lifting Neville up  Lupin is such a Troll, he comes off very professional speaking to Snape but then encourages Neville to make Boggart Snape wear his Gran's clothes  Harry comes off quite mature when thinking of his greatest fear - he has two mass murderers after him but rather goes for what most recently has scared him  Shay wonders why most of the students boggarts were generic Halloween type monsters, and not something like disappointed parents, failure, etc  Is Neville's Boggart being Snape more showing is fear of incompetence rather than actual fear of Snape? Did Lupin make any preparations for students having some deeper trauma (like he sort of did for Harry?)  Lupin stops Harry from battling the Boggart - we see his Boggart takes the shape of an "orb" or something similar **foreshadowing** Harry is very upset that Lupin didn't let him fight the Boggart despite it being pretty obvious why - why is Harry so concerned about how Lupin views him? Why would Hermione's Boggart taken the shape of? We discuss Hermione's fears being failure and not belonging  Do Boggarts have any kind of attack or cause any injury? Or is it only psychological damage?  Snape Sucks total for Chapter 7: 5 Email any thoughts, questions or feedback to [email protected] Fill our our Listener Survey here: https://forms.gle/QFEJNAEtQdzXLSBC7 Music: Shelter Song by Alexander Nakarada (www.serpentsoundstudios.com) Licensed under Creative Commons BY Attribution 4.0 License https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/ Follow Us:  Facebook  https://www.facebook.com/potterrevisited Twitter https://twitter.com/potterevisited Instagram https://www.instagram.com/potterrevisited_/ Youtube https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC4v2Xt0OIQ8_LCVYhKf2S5A TikTok https://www.tiktok.com/@potterrevisited
