Designing the Battle of Hogwarts in the TV Show! | Flying Duel, Charge of the Houselves, Final Showdown, More!

Send us Fan MailIn this episode, we discuss the Battle of Hogwarts in the TV show. Enjoy!Topics/Summary:·      2:09 The charge of the houselves. This moment is only in the book, but is impactful. Kreacher has finally found something that he believes in, and it would be a shame if his arc ends without that final resolution of charging into battle. This shows us that everyone is involved. ·      10:21 Fred’s death. This is one of the most shocking deaths in the battle because it represents the death of Harry’s past. Fred was full of life and humor with so much ahead of him, but that all came to an end. We don’t even get to see it in the film, despite the fact that it is a big moment in the book.·      15:56 Peeves. He is famously left out of the films, but he has been cast in the TV show. Peeves in fighting on the front lines along with all the rest of the students. This is impactful because he was once the thorn in the side of the castle, but know he puts his jokes aside to stand and fight. It highlights just how important this battle is.·      19:39 The epic final showdown. It is epic in the film, but it’s not the same as the book. As cool as it is to watch, I prefer the sequence in the book because of the symbolic nature of the Great Hall and the more final sense in the air.·      24:23 Details that we should include, or not. The flying duel in the air is super weird. They crash into the castle and Voldemort squishes their heads together? I’m good. Harry breaking the elder wand in the film is a great detail that should be included in the TV show. I also want to have a more effective explanation for the transfer of ownership of the elder wand, because it was the motivation for Snape’s murder. [email protected]
