Harry Potter - Fandom Hybrid Podcast #129

1
00:00:25,000 --> 00:00:27,900
What's up hybrids?
Welcome back to another episode

2
00:00:27,900 --> 00:00:31,100
of The Phantom hybrid podcast.
This is hanako and I am here

3
00:00:31,100 --> 00:00:37,200
with Anthony and Mike and we are
starting 2022 off by talking

4
00:00:37,200 --> 00:00:40,300
about one of my favorite things,
we're going to talk about Harry

5
00:00:40,300 --> 00:00:43,800
Potter.
The 20th anniversary special.

6
00:00:43,800 --> 00:00:48,300
That came out on New Year's Day.
We don't really get a chance to

7
00:00:48,300 --> 00:00:50,600
talk about Harry Potter much on
this podcast.

8
00:00:50,600 --> 00:00:54,000
We haven't since we started
because there's not really

9
00:00:54,200 --> 00:00:57,300
Anything new, which is weird
because, like, especially with

10
00:00:57,300 --> 00:01:01,000
Anthony and I, we were both
like, major major Harry Potter

11
00:01:01,000 --> 00:01:02,000
Geeks.
Yeah.

12
00:01:02,000 --> 00:01:04,300
But it always comes up as a
reference.

13
00:01:04,700 --> 00:01:07,700
Yeah, you got tons of rounds
every show, right?

14
00:01:07,700 --> 00:01:09,800
Mark about.
And we talked about, I think we

15
00:01:09,800 --> 00:01:12,800
talked about, we talked about it
a little bit, and I drank on

16
00:01:12,800 --> 00:01:17,400
coverage because I did a panel
about they, who must not be

17
00:01:17,408 --> 00:01:21,400
named talking about problematic
authors and separating them from

18
00:01:21,400 --> 00:01:25,200
their, you know, from their art,
which Obviously we've had to do

19
00:01:25,200 --> 00:01:29,300
with Harry Potter, for those of
us who are trans supporters.

20
00:01:30,300 --> 00:01:34,300
So it's been weird.
We talked about it at

21
00:01:34,300 --> 00:01:38,000
conjuration because it was a
Harry Potter based convention

22
00:01:38,000 --> 00:01:39,700
that we did.
But other than that we haven't

23
00:01:39,700 --> 00:01:42,600
really had a chance to talk
about like the movies the books

24
00:01:42,600 --> 00:01:47,500
is just hasn't come up.
So yeah I'm glad we get a chance

25
00:01:47,500 --> 00:01:50,400
to talk about it and why?
Look before we start I have to

26
00:01:50,400 --> 00:01:51,700
show I have to show you all
this.

27
00:01:51,700 --> 00:01:55,800
So I was in Walmart.
I think the Christmas break like

28
00:01:55,800 --> 00:02:00,300
maybe a week or two before
Christmas walking by and saw go

29
00:02:00,300 --> 00:02:02,700
back buggy.
And this thing was sitting in

30
00:02:02,700 --> 00:02:06,400
top of the buggy and I picked it
up and I was like oh this is

31
00:02:06,400 --> 00:02:07,700
cool.
Let me go see what else they

32
00:02:07,700 --> 00:02:09,500
have.
They didn't have any more in the

33
00:02:09,500 --> 00:02:15,400
store so I ended up getting it.
So you see this They're so cute

34
00:02:15,500 --> 00:02:23,100
in acute for the people who are
listening and not watching.

35
00:02:23,400 --> 00:02:27,900
It's a this thing is like an 18
inch Harry Potter, seasonal

36
00:02:27,900 --> 00:02:31,100
plush.
So he looks like a Funko doll

37
00:02:31,100 --> 00:02:35,700
with his big head was she and
he's holding a red ornament, so

38
00:02:35,700 --> 00:02:38,700
it's really, really cute.
And I picked it up and carried

39
00:02:38,700 --> 00:02:41,700
this thing around, like a baby,
all through Walmart, and

40
00:02:41,700 --> 00:02:43,900
couldn't find any others because
I was looking up.

41
00:02:44,000 --> 00:02:45,800
Do they have Ron?
Do they have for mine because

42
00:02:45,800 --> 00:02:48,300
you know, I'm a Ron fan.
So I was like they got to have a

43
00:02:48,300 --> 00:02:51,100
run and see any other.
So I was like, okay I'll take

44
00:02:51,100 --> 00:02:53,900
carry home and hopefully next
Christmas, they might have

45
00:02:54,100 --> 00:02:57,600
others.
So yeah, it's a pretty big

46
00:02:57,600 --> 00:03:00,100
hurry.
He's very big.

47
00:03:00,100 --> 00:03:08,200
So, but laying a little bigger
than 18 inches to Little video.

48
00:03:08,300 --> 00:03:13,000
Yeah, he might be but then
again, you're short.

49
00:03:13,000 --> 00:03:17,200
So I mean everything.
You know what, you know what we

50
00:03:17,200 --> 00:03:21,500
are not about to have this
conversation today, but

51
00:03:21,500 --> 00:03:24,700
apparently, he's not big enough
for Leia because Leia keeps

52
00:03:24,700 --> 00:03:29,100
knocking him off of my bookcase
every time she walks past and

53
00:03:29,100 --> 00:03:32,400
she knocks him off.
I'm like really this thing is

54
00:03:32,400 --> 00:03:38,500
twice your size, she don't care.
But First, well, I should say.

55
00:03:38,500 --> 00:03:40,500
Initial thoughts.
What did you think about the

56
00:03:40,500 --> 00:03:43,600
special like, where you where
you emotional Anthony?

57
00:03:43,600 --> 00:03:45,700
Did you start crying within the
first five minutes?

58
00:03:45,700 --> 00:03:47,500
Like I did?
Or was that just me?

59
00:03:48,500 --> 00:03:53,100
That was just you.
I mean I'm a real fan.

60
00:03:54,300 --> 00:03:58,200
I may have said a tear or two,
you know, I tried to hide my

61
00:03:58,200 --> 00:04:02,500
face from my personality, with
him, a related to our marriage,

62
00:04:02,700 --> 00:04:06,400
why she wasn't emotional too, I
don't know, because I was not.

63
00:04:06,500 --> 00:04:09,000
I'm trying to look here duration
to think case.

64
00:04:12,700 --> 00:04:27,800
So I'm just going to ignore the
I enjoyed it.

65
00:04:28,000 --> 00:04:30,900
It brought up some memories.
He actually brought up some

66
00:04:30,900 --> 00:04:33,100
things.
I had never thought about before

67
00:04:33,500 --> 00:04:37,800
concerning the series and will
Al Talk about that later, but

68
00:04:37,800 --> 00:04:41,100
initial Impressions was it was
it was pretty good.

69
00:04:41,200 --> 00:04:43,400
I only had one thing that was
the issue.

70
00:04:44,100 --> 00:04:48,800
The in talk about John Williams
and music, but I know that that

71
00:04:48,800 --> 00:04:52,900
wasn't the focus of the show,
but I thought the music is as

72
00:04:52,900 --> 00:04:56,300
much of a character as the
characters, right?

73
00:04:56,300 --> 00:05:00,500
Is when I hear the thing, when I
hear hat, is it Hagrid song?

74
00:05:00,500 --> 00:05:04,300
When I hear that, he was
thinking, you can't give it out

75
00:05:04,300 --> 00:05:08,700
of your head, you know?
That you just can't.

76
00:05:08,700 --> 00:05:13,200
And I think the music is just as
much a part of the show as the

77
00:05:13,200 --> 00:05:15,900
characters are.
So yeah, that was only thing but

78
00:05:15,900 --> 00:05:17,900
other than that I thought it was
fabulous.

79
00:05:18,000 --> 00:05:19,900
Yeah.
I know they have talked about

80
00:05:19,900 --> 00:05:25,500
the music and other things
before like some of the behind

81
00:05:25,500 --> 00:05:27,500
the scenes that you get with
some of the DVDs.

82
00:05:27,500 --> 00:05:31,000
You know, they released like so
many different types of DVDs

83
00:05:31,000 --> 00:05:34,400
with special features so they I
know they talked about it there.

84
00:05:34,400 --> 00:05:38,500
I think this one was supposed to
be more so So kind of like a

85
00:05:38,508 --> 00:05:42,300
nostalgic journey.
I feel like part of it was to

86
00:05:42,300 --> 00:05:48,200
kind of deflect from some of the
- that we here with not

87
00:05:48,200 --> 00:05:51,200
necessarily Harry Potter fandom,
but again, you know, mentioning,

88
00:05:51,200 --> 00:05:55,000
she who must not be named and it
surprised me that they had her

89
00:05:55,100 --> 00:06:00,200
had clips of her even here and
but they made sure they sit

90
00:06:00,200 --> 00:06:06,300
film.
So, my best friend and I, we

91
00:06:06,300 --> 00:06:08,000
were Watching it at the same
time.

92
00:06:08,000 --> 00:06:09,900
She's in North Carolina.
I'm here.

93
00:06:10,200 --> 00:06:13,400
So we waited until we were both
free so that we can watch it

94
00:06:13,400 --> 00:06:15,300
together and like text back and
forth.

95
00:06:15,300 --> 00:06:17,500
And that was the one thing we
both texted to each other.

96
00:06:17,500 --> 00:06:19,400
At the same time.
We would like they made.

97
00:06:19,400 --> 00:06:23,400
Sure everybody knew that she
wasn't a part of this, you know,

98
00:06:23,400 --> 00:06:26,700
the whole life thing which, you
know, it's cool.

99
00:06:26,700 --> 00:06:29,200
I mean, I be honest, it's still
her creation.

100
00:06:29,200 --> 00:06:34,000
You know, we are grateful to her
for creating this world that has

101
00:06:34,000 --> 00:06:40,200
brought so many people together,
but it It was strange, you know,

102
00:06:41,900 --> 00:06:44,900
that means it is always it's
always going to be kind of

103
00:06:44,900 --> 00:06:50,000
strange when like Doug could
someone who created or saying or

104
00:06:50,000 --> 00:06:54,100
wrote something gets involved in
some bullshit and you're and

105
00:06:54,100 --> 00:06:56,000
you're like, oh god, what the
fuck my old?

106
00:06:56,000 --> 00:06:57,900
You know, it's just like Fame.
All this shit happen with Kevin

107
00:06:57,900 --> 00:06:59,800
Spacey and everybody was
watching House of Cards was

108
00:06:59,800 --> 00:07:01,800
like, fuck.
I can't watch House of Cards it

109
00:07:01,800 --> 00:07:03,400
for our can watch Usual
Suspects.

110
00:07:03,800 --> 00:07:06,000
It's just like, I mean to a
lesser.

111
00:07:07,400 --> 00:07:12,700
JK Rowling is nowhere near as as
tough as our Kelly but it's just

112
00:07:12,700 --> 00:07:15,900
like, you know, people still
listen to our Kelly like we're

113
00:07:15,900 --> 00:07:18,700
like still just in Step In The
Name of Love and stuff but

114
00:07:18,900 --> 00:07:20,100
that's it.
We can't.

115
00:07:20,100 --> 00:07:23,600
I don't, I can't.
Yeah.

116
00:07:23,600 --> 00:07:28,800
It's like but it's kind of like
you said it's hard for some

117
00:07:28,800 --> 00:07:33,700
people to separate the artist
from the douchebag or douche

118
00:07:33,700 --> 00:07:35,700
baguette.
As the case may be is like some

119
00:07:35,700 --> 00:07:39,100
people just Really like
something that they do.

120
00:07:39,200 --> 00:07:42,600
They go like oh I can look past
all that but you know I mean I'm

121
00:07:42,600 --> 00:07:44,500
with you I was like love some
sort of certain things.

122
00:07:44,500 --> 00:07:49,100
I'm like I'm you know I'm don't
you can I think I think part of

123
00:07:49,100 --> 00:07:54,200
it is for me my connection to
Harry Potter.

124
00:07:54,500 --> 00:07:58,100
Yes I love the the series I got
really attached to the

125
00:07:58,100 --> 00:08:00,000
characters but for me it was
more.

126
00:08:00,000 --> 00:08:05,000
So the family that I found
through Harry Potter like

127
00:08:05,100 --> 00:08:07,600
several of my best.
Friends, I found because of

128
00:08:07,600 --> 00:08:12,400
Harry Potter, a lot of, you
know, my fandom experiences.

129
00:08:12,400 --> 00:08:17,000
My my first pay blogging gig and
all this other stuff I had to do

130
00:08:17,000 --> 00:08:21,200
with Harry Potter.
So that's why I associate with

131
00:08:21,200 --> 00:08:25,200
that more than you know, the
other stuff we won't.

132
00:08:25,200 --> 00:08:26,500
We're not going to get into
this.

133
00:08:26,500 --> 00:08:29,200
This is going to be a fun
discussion.

134
00:08:29,400 --> 00:08:31,600
We're not going to talk about
she who must not be named, we're

135
00:08:31,600 --> 00:08:34,600
going to be Voldemort over
there, don't just, you know,

136
00:08:34,600 --> 00:08:37,600
focus on this stuff also Call it
Voldemort ition.

137
00:08:37,600 --> 00:08:41,000
Now we just I'm just going to
stick to she who must not be

138
00:08:41,000 --> 00:08:45,000
named and be done with it.
I was saying how you and I met

139
00:08:45,000 --> 00:08:47,800
because of Harry Potter, right?
Yeah.

140
00:08:47,800 --> 00:08:52,600
Well, we well, we work together
first and then we kind of bonded

141
00:08:52,600 --> 00:08:56,400
and got got closer or became
more friends because of Harry

142
00:08:56,400 --> 00:08:57,400
Potter, right?
Yeah.

143
00:08:57,400 --> 00:09:01,400
So and that's kind of happened
with me with a couple of people

144
00:09:01,400 --> 00:09:05,600
that I've worked with before,
like, one of my best friends.

145
00:09:05,800 --> 00:09:08,700
She and I Guy worked in the same
office and we were cool.

146
00:09:08,900 --> 00:09:11,600
And when I first started working
at that office, when I went from

147
00:09:11,600 --> 00:09:15,100
part-time to full-time and you
know, got a cubicle to decorate.

148
00:09:15,100 --> 00:09:18,900
I have I have some Harry Potter
dolls that are actually in my

149
00:09:18,900 --> 00:09:22,100
bedroom right now and I had them
sitting on my desk and she

150
00:09:22,100 --> 00:09:24,500
walked past my desk and she kind
of stopped the she loved and she

151
00:09:24,500 --> 00:09:27,100
was like, wait a minute.
Are you a Harry Potter fan?

152
00:09:27,100 --> 00:09:29,200
I was like, yes, she said that
my distance.

153
00:09:29,200 --> 00:09:31,900
She was like, girl, let's talk
and literally that's how we

154
00:09:31,900 --> 00:09:35,800
started our friendship, she and
I went to our first Dragon Con

155
00:09:35,800 --> 00:09:39,600
together, Because Matthew Lewis
who plays Neville and James

156
00:09:39,600 --> 00:09:42,800
Oliver Phelps who plays the
twins were coming to Dragon Con.

157
00:09:42,800 --> 00:09:46,100
So that was my introduction to
DragonCon way back in 2007.

158
00:09:46,100 --> 00:09:49,600
So I have a lot of good memories
with the Harry Potter.

159
00:09:49,600 --> 00:09:53,800
Yeah, because I remember you
were in the media center and a

160
00:09:53,800 --> 00:10:00,700
Michelle was like, oh you know,
because I knew Mia because I had

161
00:10:00,700 --> 00:10:04,700
substitute in her class and she
was like oh her mom were some me

162
00:10:04,700 --> 00:10:06,000
sooner.
She's in the Harry Potter

163
00:10:06,000 --> 00:10:08,000
because I I just started reading
the books, right?

164
00:10:08,200 --> 00:10:10,300
And I was a poet.
So I went to the media center.

165
00:10:10,300 --> 00:10:12,400
We started talking about here
about this.

166
00:10:12,900 --> 00:10:16,300
Yeah, because I knew you, but I
didn't really know you until we

167
00:10:16,300 --> 00:10:18,800
start on my best.
Yeah, that was a fun time.

168
00:10:18,800 --> 00:10:22,700
I loved working.
I worked in Elementary media

169
00:10:22,700 --> 00:10:25,600
center and I loved it.
That was actually my

170
00:10:25,600 --> 00:10:29,200
introduction to Harry Potter
because I was in there all the

171
00:10:29,200 --> 00:10:33,100
time and the kids would like we
couldn't keep the Harry Potter

172
00:10:33,100 --> 00:10:36,300
books on our shelves, like we
had several copies of each.

173
00:10:36,500 --> 00:10:40,700
Look, I think at that time, it
was up to order of the Phoenix

174
00:10:41,300 --> 00:10:43,700
and we couldn't keep him on the
shelf.

175
00:10:44,300 --> 00:10:48,600
And what happened was, one of
the banks in our neighborhood,

176
00:10:48,600 --> 00:10:52,000
gave a donation of books to our
schools media center.

177
00:10:52,600 --> 00:10:55,900
And as I'm going through
cataloging the books, there was

178
00:10:55,900 --> 00:10:58,000
a box set of the first five
books.

179
00:10:58,700 --> 00:11:03,000
So my supervisor at the time and
also one of my mentors, he had

180
00:11:03,000 --> 00:11:06,200
been trying to get me to read
Harry Potter forever and I just

181
00:11:06,400 --> 00:11:11,700
Wouldn't because at that time, I
was just getting out of a church

182
00:11:11,700 --> 00:11:15,200
situation that was kind of sort
of cult and I've mentioned this

183
00:11:15,200 --> 00:11:17,400
before in other podcast
whatever.

184
00:11:17,400 --> 00:11:20,600
But, you know, they were one of
those that was kind of on the

185
00:11:20,600 --> 00:11:23,600
fence or, you know, telling
people that when you read stuff

186
00:11:23,600 --> 00:11:27,300
with witchcraft it was anyway,
you guys know where I'm going

187
00:11:27,300 --> 00:11:30,100
with that.
So I just never read the books

188
00:11:30,900 --> 00:11:34,700
and being in there.
I was like, okay, well I guess I

189
00:11:34,700 --> 00:11:38,300
should take them home and Them.
So he let me take the books home

190
00:11:38,300 --> 00:11:40,000
before we ever put them on the
shelf.

191
00:11:40,600 --> 00:11:44,200
And I tell everybody people
laugh at me when I tell them the

192
00:11:44,200 --> 00:11:46,300
story.
So I took the books home on a

193
00:11:46,300 --> 00:11:48,600
Thursday.
It was right before, spring,

194
00:11:48,600 --> 00:11:52,200
break and 2005.
I remember this because I was

195
00:11:52,200 --> 00:11:56,600
like, okay, so I have these
three days for this week spring

196
00:11:56,600 --> 00:11:59,600
break was the following week, so
I was like, okay, I have like 10

197
00:11:59,600 --> 00:12:02,800
days to read these books.
I was a pretty fast reader back

198
00:12:02,800 --> 00:12:05,000
then.
So I was like, okay, I can do

199
00:12:05,000 --> 00:12:07,800
this.
The books home on Thursday,

200
00:12:07,800 --> 00:12:12,000
started with book one.
I was finished with all five by

201
00:12:12,000 --> 00:12:16,300
Sunday evening, three days, I
read all five books and this is

202
00:12:16,300 --> 00:12:20,600
with that was 2005 at that time
at a three-year-old 27 year old

203
00:12:20,600 --> 00:12:25,300
and nine year old sister I was
like how in the world did you do

204
00:12:25,300 --> 00:12:27,300
this?
As a literally I took that book

205
00:12:27,300 --> 00:12:30,800
everywhere I sat on the couch
and I folded laundry I cooked

206
00:12:30,800 --> 00:12:33,100
with it, I was in the bathroom
with it.

207
00:12:33,100 --> 00:12:35,400
I took a bath and I had a
sitting on a stack light.

208
00:12:35,400 --> 00:12:38,500
I took that back to Those books
everywhere and and red.

209
00:12:38,500 --> 00:12:42,600
So that was kind of how I got
into it and then I joined a

210
00:12:42,600 --> 00:12:45,600
message board.
I'm dating myself now and join a

211
00:12:45,608 --> 00:12:49,200
message board.
And one of the, one of the chat

212
00:12:49,200 --> 00:12:52,700
rooms for the message board was
Harry Potter fans, 30 and over

213
00:12:52,700 --> 00:12:57,900
and I was like wait there's more
and got into it and it was like

214
00:12:57,900 --> 00:13:01,200
at that point I think that chat
room had like ten thousand

215
00:13:01,200 --> 00:13:04,100
members.
I was like wait what?

216
00:13:04,100 --> 00:13:07,600
So that was kind of me dipping.
My toe into the Harry Potter

217
00:13:07,600 --> 00:13:10,500
universe and I still have
friends from that initial chat

218
00:13:10,500 --> 00:13:13,400
room that I'm friends with.
Now that have surpassed, like

219
00:13:13,400 --> 00:13:16,700
real life friends, some of these
people I've never met in person,

220
00:13:16,700 --> 00:13:21,300
some I have.
So it holds a very special place

221
00:13:21,300 --> 00:13:24,300
for me, in terms of that.
And then I was going through a

222
00:13:24,300 --> 00:13:27,000
lot, a lot of stuff personally
at that time, too.

223
00:13:27,000 --> 00:13:31,100
So it kind of helped me through
some really, really dark

224
00:13:31,100 --> 00:13:36,000
personal stuff.
And this just kind of, you know,

225
00:13:36,400 --> 00:13:40,400
Why it's still cemented in my
heart as a fandom?

226
00:13:40,400 --> 00:13:42,500
Like I haven't read the books in
a long time.

227
00:13:42,500 --> 00:13:45,100
I only watch the movie
sporadically now, but I still

228
00:13:45,100 --> 00:13:48,900
like feel so connected to this
fandom and I'm sure you guys

229
00:13:48,900 --> 00:13:51,300
have, like, maybe similar
experiences.

230
00:13:51,300 --> 00:13:54,200
I know, Anthony.
And I we belong to an adult's HP

231
00:13:54,200 --> 00:13:56,500
group here in Atlanta that we
started going to.

232
00:13:56,500 --> 00:14:01,100
Like I started going there and
like 07 right after Dragon Con.

233
00:14:01,900 --> 00:14:05,500
And Anthony started coming a
little while after that he and

234
00:14:05,500 --> 00:14:07,600
his wife.
I think I think Michelle's been

235
00:14:07,600 --> 00:14:09,600
to a couple meetings as well,
right?

236
00:14:09,600 --> 00:14:11,900
Yeah, one or two.
Yeah.

237
00:14:11,900 --> 00:14:14,300
Well that's you and we still
have some good friends from a

238
00:14:14,300 --> 00:14:18,600
like Dina and Adam and yeah, the
nice whole bunch of people.

239
00:14:18,600 --> 00:14:21,000
Yeah.
A lot of fun people and I didn't

240
00:14:21,000 --> 00:14:24,000
think like, for me getting into
it.

241
00:14:24,000 --> 00:14:27,400
Like I was always a reader and I
just kind of like I'm not gonna

242
00:14:27,400 --> 00:14:29,500
be here quality because that's
that's kids books.

243
00:14:29,500 --> 00:14:31,100
Who wants to read The Children
books?

244
00:14:31,600 --> 00:14:35,400
You know, I don't want to I
didn't I was done with the yei

245
00:14:35,400 --> 00:14:39,500
was not do.
But I picked up Sorcerer's

246
00:14:39,500 --> 00:14:41,100
Stone.
I was like, oh my God, this is

247
00:14:41,100 --> 00:14:45,200
actually pretty good, huh?
Yeah, and and sister easy reads

248
00:14:45,200 --> 00:14:48,600
you go through them fast.
Well, they were easy reason

249
00:14:48,600 --> 00:14:49,800
being.
Once you get the Prisoner of

250
00:14:49,800 --> 00:14:53,000
Azkaban, it's kind of, like,
wait, this is, this is taking a

251
00:14:53,000 --> 00:14:56,700
turn.
But, you know, I went through a

252
00:14:56,700 --> 00:15:02,700
pretty fast and are for me, it
had stopped reading for the most

253
00:15:02,700 --> 00:15:08,100
part up, until then, and You
know, I don't know.

254
00:15:08,200 --> 00:15:14,700
I don't remember I think because
We you go to law school, you

255
00:15:14,700 --> 00:15:19,100
read a lot, you read a lot and
some of you then you don't want

256
00:15:19,100 --> 00:15:22,100
to read any more right now is
you have to write.

257
00:15:22,100 --> 00:15:24,800
So giving back into it, I was
like, oh my God, this is real

258
00:15:24,800 --> 00:15:26,900
good.
So he actually brought me back

259
00:15:27,100 --> 00:15:31,800
to a passion that I had before.
Yeah, reading fan.

260
00:15:32,100 --> 00:15:35,500
It's not fantasy, but it felt
like fantasy to me.

261
00:15:36,100 --> 00:15:39,700
And it it rekindled that
passion.

262
00:15:39,700 --> 00:15:42,200
I have freedom because Michelle
will tell you I Event.

263
00:15:42,200 --> 00:15:45,600
I read all the time.
Like, I couldn't stop reading.

264
00:15:45,900 --> 00:15:51,500
Yeah, and it brought that back
for me and then I didn't have a

265
00:15:51,508 --> 00:15:53,800
lot of people hang out with.
I didn't really hang out with

266
00:15:53,800 --> 00:15:56,600
anyone until the HP.
And I started hanging out with

267
00:15:56,600 --> 00:15:57,800
you guys.
And that was fun.

268
00:15:58,100 --> 00:16:00,400
Yeah, we haven't seen yet.
Yeah.

269
00:16:00,400 --> 00:16:02,300
Senior DragonCon.
That was fun.

270
00:16:02,700 --> 00:16:06,300
Yeah, because I had been going.
It was just me and Brandon my

271
00:16:06,300 --> 00:16:07,700
best friend.
We only it.

272
00:16:07,700 --> 00:16:11,000
Was us up until then, that start
hanging out with these people.

273
00:16:11,300 --> 00:16:13,100
Yeah.
He I'm like oh you gonna go hang

274
00:16:13,100 --> 00:16:14,600
out with them now?
Yeah.

275
00:16:15,200 --> 00:16:23,200
Okay out of here he missed out
on some good, hey time.

276
00:16:24,400 --> 00:16:29,000
So you get into HP basically
through the movies.

277
00:16:29,400 --> 00:16:33,200
My secret shame is that I've
never read a book.

278
00:16:33,600 --> 00:16:36,900
Lord we're gonna have to fix
that real.

279
00:16:37,600 --> 00:16:41,600
We gotta feel bad but I mean to
be honest it'll be just like

280
00:16:41,800 --> 00:16:44,000
Just like y'all.
It's like I've been an Avid

281
00:16:44,000 --> 00:16:45,900
Reader like through High School
through college.

282
00:16:45,900 --> 00:16:48,500
Like I anything you put in front
of me, I'd read.

283
00:16:48,800 --> 00:16:51,800
So it's like when I saw the
previews for a movie I was like

284
00:16:51,800 --> 00:16:55,000
yeah, my check it out.
But then it's like I because I

285
00:16:55,000 --> 00:16:59,000
have been hearing about like how
books, how books were being, how

286
00:16:59,000 --> 00:17:02,400
they're banning the books from
schools, because of, because,

287
00:17:02,400 --> 00:17:04,700
you know, let's just cross my
little stuff.

288
00:17:05,000 --> 00:17:08,099
And the one thing about me back
in the day is like, if you

289
00:17:08,099 --> 00:17:11,500
handed me a list of books, I
couldn't read, I'd buy it.

290
00:17:11,700 --> 00:17:14,000
Her last one of them ain't gonna
read them, right?

291
00:17:14,000 --> 00:17:17,500
So it's like, or I try to figure
out what it's about.

292
00:17:17,500 --> 00:17:19,400
But at this time, it's like, I
had.

293
00:17:19,700 --> 00:17:22,000
I was like, you know what, I'll
take out the movie before I read

294
00:17:22,000 --> 00:17:24,500
the books.
So, watch Wednesday, the movie,

295
00:17:24,500 --> 00:17:26,500
of course, will be blooming fuck
away.

296
00:17:26,599 --> 00:17:31,100
I was like, that's pretty dope.
Okay, so then this like I just I

297
00:17:31,100 --> 00:17:34,200
pretty much just watch the
movies because think of that

298
00:17:34,200 --> 00:17:35,800
time, I was more into Murder
Mysteries.

299
00:17:35,800 --> 00:17:38,000
And I just said, just never
really pet chance to pick them

300
00:17:38,000 --> 00:17:39,700
up.
People have been trying to give

301
00:17:39,700 --> 00:17:41,900
them to me.
They've been like, hear you The

302
00:17:41,900 --> 00:17:43,900
books are so much better.
I'm like I know the books always

303
00:17:43,900 --> 00:17:45,100
usually better than movie.
Yes.

304
00:17:45,100 --> 00:17:47,000
I know.
See, like here Riri like, okay,

305
00:17:47,000 --> 00:17:49,800
okay, okay, okay.
And I just never really had a

306
00:17:49,800 --> 00:17:53,600
chance to but I've seen them and
it's like, I think Harry Potter

307
00:17:53,600 --> 00:17:57,400
is the one fandom where it's
kind of a good dichotomy of what

308
00:17:57,400 --> 00:18:01,200
a fandom is because it's such a
diverse fandom.

309
00:18:01,700 --> 00:18:04,800
Like, you know, I mean, they're
from all walks of life, all

310
00:18:04,800 --> 00:18:07,000
ages.
I mean, you know, I think even

311
00:18:07,000 --> 00:18:10,700
more so than a lot of other
fandoms, this one is really more

312
00:18:10,700 --> 00:18:12,900
diverse.
Than a lot of them like

313
00:18:12,900 --> 00:18:16,300
specially Marvel DC, probably
like any other like fantasy

314
00:18:16,300 --> 00:18:20,800
fandom like they they it is such
a diverse and close-knit fandom

315
00:18:21,300 --> 00:18:25,500
that you know, I mean it's like
you can go to if you go to a con

316
00:18:25,800 --> 00:18:28,200
and you see people in their
robes, you're going to be like,

317
00:18:28,200 --> 00:18:31,500
hey and it's like you'll start
talking instantly.

318
00:18:31,800 --> 00:18:34,700
It's not like people if you see
like two people dressed up as

319
00:18:34,700 --> 00:18:36,300
superheroes.
I probably like oh cool.

320
00:18:36,400 --> 00:18:39,100
And keep walking, but it's like
most people it, I think I've

321
00:18:39,100 --> 00:18:43,500
noticed, like people who like
Didn't have never met the person

322
00:18:43,500 --> 00:18:45,600
for to life if they're in the
same if they're in the same

323
00:18:45,600 --> 00:18:48,800
house they'll just is.
So yeah StarTalk a girl.

324
00:18:48,800 --> 00:18:53,000
Yes absolutely absolutely.
And I think that's what's really

325
00:18:53,000 --> 00:18:55,600
cool about the Harry Potter.
Fandom is like there are no

326
00:18:55,600 --> 00:18:57,700
strangers, right?
Like there's no strangers in the

327
00:18:57,700 --> 00:18:59,700
fandom, right?
You see, we Vault where all

328
00:18:59,700 --> 00:19:03,300
representing our houses, I've
got on my hufflepuffs shirt,

329
00:19:03,400 --> 00:19:07,400
Anthony has on a Ravenclaw shirt
that his wife made for him and

330
00:19:07,400 --> 00:19:10,300
Mike has got on his Ravenclaw
head as well.

331
00:19:10,300 --> 00:19:12,600
I'm a little bit outnumbered.
But that's okay.

332
00:19:13,000 --> 00:19:16,900
All right, I was when I was
reminded that we started

333
00:19:16,900 --> 00:19:21,200
listening to the audiobook when
Michelle was in graduate school

334
00:19:21,200 --> 00:19:24,800
and we were driving to Athens
and fluid.

335
00:19:24,900 --> 00:19:33,200
Wow, okay, If I'm not mistaken,
she was the one that wanted to

336
00:19:33,208 --> 00:19:34,200
listen to it.
What?

337
00:19:34,200 --> 00:19:36,400
Watch it?
Yeah, it was her.

338
00:19:36,700 --> 00:19:41,300
So also, she was the cool one
first and then you you, okay?

339
00:19:41,300 --> 00:19:43,300
Okay.
And we have that, this is kind

340
00:19:43,300 --> 00:19:46,000
of good in that.
Then I started diving into the

341
00:19:46,000 --> 00:19:51,300
books.
Okay, I stand corrected again,

342
00:19:54,500 --> 00:19:57,200
that's the lovely thing about
having her sitting next to you.

343
00:19:57,200 --> 00:20:04,700
Why he recorded That's funny.
So let's talk about the

344
00:20:04,700 --> 00:20:08,100
reunions.
Special overall.

345
00:20:08,300 --> 00:20:11,700
I enjoyed it.
Very nostalgic.

346
00:20:12,000 --> 00:20:15,000
I did shed a few tears.
Like I mean, even just listening

347
00:20:15,000 --> 00:20:19,200
to the music when it first came
on, I was just like you, here we

348
00:20:19,200 --> 00:20:21,700
go.
I was like, here's my tissue.

349
00:20:22,000 --> 00:20:23,300
I'm gonna be okay.
I'm gonna be okay.

350
00:20:23,300 --> 00:20:25,100
I'm going to be strong.
I'm gonna be okay.

351
00:20:25,400 --> 00:20:29,400
When they showed Hogwarts and
started playing, I think it was

352
00:20:29,400 --> 00:20:34,800
Harry's wondrous world.
At that point, I was like, we

353
00:20:34,800 --> 00:20:37,700
even five minutes into this,
okay?

354
00:20:38,300 --> 00:20:40,400
I'm gonna be strong for the rest
of the episode.

355
00:20:40,400 --> 00:20:43,900
And now there were there were
some there was some chick

356
00:20:43,900 --> 00:20:52,600
tearjerker moments, but I think
my first thoughts when I watched

357
00:20:52,600 --> 00:20:54,800
it the first time, I actually
watched it, I've watched it

358
00:20:54,800 --> 00:20:58,300
three times now, washed it once
in New Year's Day, I watched it

359
00:20:58,300 --> 00:21:00,100
once the next day, with my older
daughter.

360
00:21:00,300 --> 00:21:02,400
And then I Watched it just
before we started recording

361
00:21:02,400 --> 00:21:05,700
because I had some thoughts and
I needed to kind of go back and

362
00:21:05,700 --> 00:21:08,500
see if what I was remembering
was correct.

363
00:21:08,500 --> 00:21:13,100
But one of the first things that
I noticed that kind of threw me

364
00:21:13,400 --> 00:21:17,300
was that did it seem to you?
Like for the most part, the

365
00:21:17,300 --> 00:21:20,700
trio, filmed everything
separately from everybody else.

366
00:21:20,700 --> 00:21:23,300
Like they may have been there
two different times.

367
00:21:23,600 --> 00:21:29,900
Yes because, yeah, because it is
interesting that the whole

368
00:21:29,900 --> 00:21:34,500
thing.
Out with em, you know the way

369
00:21:34,500 --> 00:21:38,200
that they kind of introduce the
reviewing in show, was that you

370
00:21:38,200 --> 00:21:41,600
kind of get an overview of
London and then you see, like,

371
00:21:41,700 --> 00:21:48,700
Emma in a bookstore, you see
Robbie in a coffee shop and then

372
00:21:48,700 --> 00:21:53,700
you see Matthew Lewis in a
taxicab and at the stroke of

373
00:21:53,700 --> 00:21:57,300
five, they all get Hogwarts
letters you know with with the

374
00:21:57,300 --> 00:22:00,600
address of where they are and
it's inviting them to this.

375
00:22:00,700 --> 00:22:03,700
Union Special.
So you see Emma coming to the

376
00:22:03,700 --> 00:22:08,100
Hogwarts Express.
You see her greeting, who was

377
00:22:08,100 --> 00:22:10,100
it?
Evanna Lynch and Bonnie, right.

378
00:22:10,100 --> 00:22:14,500
Luna, and Jenny on the train,
you get to see like different

379
00:22:14,500 --> 00:22:18,500
people coming into the Hogwarts
Express.

380
00:22:18,500 --> 00:22:22,400
You get to see Mark Williams,
and James, Oliver Phelps, you

381
00:22:22,400 --> 00:22:24,800
know, Weasley's boarding the
train.

382
00:22:24,800 --> 00:22:28,900
You see Gary Oldman and Helena
Bonham, Carter, and different

383
00:22:28,900 --> 00:22:31,100
things.
So it's like you get to These

384
00:22:31,100 --> 00:22:35,000
people arrive and then you see
Emma arrived at Hogwarts and

385
00:22:35,000 --> 00:22:37,300
this is where they're having
like a Christmas ball kind of

386
00:22:37,300 --> 00:22:39,900
your ball type thing.
So you see her go to greet

387
00:22:39,900 --> 00:22:42,700
different people like she sees
Tom felt and she gives him a

388
00:22:42,700 --> 00:22:46,000
hug, you see?
Alfred Alfred Enoch.

389
00:22:46,000 --> 00:22:49,000
I'm gonna always call him out
feed, but he's a grown man now.

390
00:22:49,000 --> 00:22:53,300
So, I have to remember our
friend, I've noticed that when

391
00:22:53,300 --> 00:22:57,000
he starred on how to get away
with murder, I'm like he's not

392
00:22:57,000 --> 00:23:00,500
Alfred, he's out feed em and
he's gonna always be outfit and

393
00:23:00,500 --> 00:23:03,200
then I have to remember that
they're actually not that far

394
00:23:03,200 --> 00:23:06,200
behind us in age like only 10
years.

395
00:23:06,200 --> 00:23:11,400
So I'm like, okay, but anyway,
so you get to see him and, you

396
00:23:11,400 --> 00:23:13,600
know, you get to see all the
different people like kind of

397
00:23:13,900 --> 00:23:17,700
Milling together and talking
with each other.

398
00:23:17,900 --> 00:23:20,600
And then, as I was watching, I
noticed that was like, wait a

399
00:23:20,608 --> 00:23:22,800
minute.
I said that means Emma was the

400
00:23:22,800 --> 00:23:26,800
only person who interacted with
the rest of the younger cast

401
00:23:26,800 --> 00:23:30,100
because you never see, Daniel or
Rupert.

402
00:23:30,800 --> 00:23:34,100
With any of the others.
And that was that was strange

403
00:23:34,100 --> 00:23:35,900
for me.
It was kind of sad too because I

404
00:23:35,908 --> 00:23:42,200
was like it, we know that those
main three are the stars of the

405
00:23:42,400 --> 00:23:45,900
of the films.
But you know, the friendships

406
00:23:46,100 --> 00:23:49,900
with within the films with the
characters were very important

407
00:23:50,100 --> 00:23:53,400
and it just kind of felt a
little off to me to not see them

408
00:23:53,400 --> 00:23:55,300
interact.
But then I thought about it, I

409
00:23:55,300 --> 00:23:59,800
was like okay it does seem a
little bit more formal with the

410
00:23:59,800 --> 00:24:02,000
three of them.
Them as opposed to with the

411
00:24:02,000 --> 00:24:04,500
others.
And it just, I don't know.

412
00:24:04,500 --> 00:24:06,900
It felt weird, like I loved
seeing the three of them

413
00:24:06,900 --> 00:24:11,100
together, but something about
that Vibe and then the vibe with

414
00:24:11,100 --> 00:24:13,000
the rest of the people in the
rest of the cast.

415
00:24:13,000 --> 00:24:15,400
It was just, it just seems so
different.

416
00:24:15,400 --> 00:24:19,000
It's Rupert interact with anyone
else.

417
00:24:19,000 --> 00:24:21,300
Was he not with all the Weasleys
when they were together?

418
00:24:22,700 --> 00:24:26,700
It's not think so.
Yeah, I wonder if scheduling has

419
00:24:26,700 --> 00:24:29,300
a lot to do with it.
That's what I started wandering

420
00:24:29,300 --> 00:24:34,800
to and then it seemed like
Daniel had a lot more because he

421
00:24:34,800 --> 00:24:38,500
talked to Gary Oldman, he also
was with hvc.

422
00:24:39,200 --> 00:24:42,800
Hmm it was was a lot of the
older Casper humans interact

423
00:24:42,800 --> 00:24:45,600
with anybody else.
Younger cast know.

424
00:24:45,700 --> 00:24:49,600
So you know that's why I started
wondering because I was like, it

425
00:24:49,600 --> 00:24:52,100
feels like a reunions.
But at the same time it kind of

426
00:24:52,100 --> 00:24:56,300
feels Like I said, that whole
part of it feels weird, like,

427
00:24:56,400 --> 00:25:01,200
okay, me.
I'm the people in my, in my

428
00:25:01,200 --> 00:25:03,400
friend group know me as the
hugger.

429
00:25:03,400 --> 00:25:05,900
I'm the one who?
When I see you, if it's been a

430
00:25:05,900 --> 00:25:09,200
long time, I have the joyous
reaction.

431
00:25:09,200 --> 00:25:12,100
I give the Bear Hugs.
Like that's how I am when I

432
00:25:12,100 --> 00:25:15,900
haven't seen somebody that I
care about for a long time and

433
00:25:15,900 --> 00:25:20,300
you saw that with Emma and Tom,
even though, you know, we'll

434
00:25:20,300 --> 00:25:24,800
talk about their part of the She
later on but you see it with

435
00:25:24,800 --> 00:25:27,100
Emma and Tom.
You saw it with the way.

436
00:25:27,400 --> 00:25:31,200
Daniel HBC greeted each other.
But I kind of wanted to see that

437
00:25:31,200 --> 00:25:35,100
with the three of them and it's
like instead when they're first

438
00:25:35,100 --> 00:25:39,200
introduced, they're all sitting
in chairs like way apart from

439
00:25:39,200 --> 00:25:41,900
each other.
There's almost no intimacy

440
00:25:42,400 --> 00:25:45,500
within the three of them.
Yeah, you know, a is a I would

441
00:25:45,500 --> 00:25:49,700
have wanted to have seen more
like when I saw Tom Felton

442
00:25:49,700 --> 00:25:56,200
talking to Alfred and Matthew, I
want to see more of that like I

443
00:25:56,200 --> 00:26:01,200
wanted more of those people in
the twins and everyone else

444
00:26:01,200 --> 00:26:04,000
interacting.
I know that the big three are

445
00:26:04,000 --> 00:26:07,400
the big three and everyone wants
to hear them talk and see what's

446
00:26:07,400 --> 00:26:10,700
going on.
But I'm the good one of the

447
00:26:10,700 --> 00:26:14,800
better appeals to the show or to
the to the story, especially the

448
00:26:14,800 --> 00:26:16,900
movies are the background
characters.

449
00:26:17,400 --> 00:26:21,900
Like I didn't know until last
night but I had a crush on you.

450
00:26:22,600 --> 00:26:25,900
Evanna Lynch.
Uh-huh, I did not know the

451
00:26:25,900 --> 00:26:30,000
insolence in your watch like
yeah I actually love Luna.

452
00:26:30,000 --> 00:26:32,700
Lovegood is he's like one of my
favorite characters me.

453
00:26:33,100 --> 00:26:36,300
Ivana I'm like, wow, she's
actually pretty awesome.

454
00:26:36,900 --> 00:26:40,000
And if you follow them all on
like social media, especially

455
00:26:40,000 --> 00:26:43,700
like one of the things that Emma
mentioned, she, she said that,

456
00:26:44,100 --> 00:26:48,600
you know, for Katie and Ivana
and Bonnie she said, one of the

457
00:26:48,600 --> 00:26:51,300
things that she loves about them
is that they've all become like

458
00:26:51,300 --> 00:26:54,100
really great.
This and she's so proud of them.

459
00:26:54,300 --> 00:26:57,600
Okay.
I have a disclaimer.

460
00:26:58,800 --> 00:27:00,500
Is now?
Not then.

461
00:27:00,600 --> 00:27:03,200
I mean, he is like a child.
So I just want to want to

462
00:27:03,200 --> 00:27:06,500
understand that.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah,

463
00:27:06,500 --> 00:27:12,500
yeah.
I just want to be clear for some

464
00:27:12,500 --> 00:27:13,400
people.
Maybe not.

465
00:27:13,400 --> 00:27:15,800
So, yeah.
I literally, I literally assumed

466
00:27:15,800 --> 00:27:17,100
you meant.
You men in the show.

467
00:27:17,100 --> 00:27:24,400
I okay.
Emails back?

468
00:27:25,000 --> 00:27:28,200
Yeah, yeah, you didn't mean it
in the in the creepy Uncle type

469
00:27:28,200 --> 00:27:31,800
away.
No got it.

470
00:27:31,900 --> 00:27:36,600
But um, yeah.
So it was I love seeing the

471
00:27:36,600 --> 00:27:41,300
three of them together.
I'm not saying that it just in a

472
00:27:41,300 --> 00:27:46,600
way, it felt it, felt formal, if
that's the right word.

473
00:27:46,600 --> 00:27:49,500
I'm looking for, except for a
like, Emma.

474
00:27:50,200 --> 00:27:53,800
I think you could tell she.
And I think Think, you know, as

475
00:27:53,800 --> 00:27:56,800
they've gotten older, I won't
say that they necessarily tried

476
00:27:56,800 --> 00:27:59,400
to distance themselves from
Harry Potter but you know,

477
00:27:59,400 --> 00:28:02,900
they've all done other things
and it's like okay yeah, Harry

478
00:28:02,900 --> 00:28:05,700
Potter is where I started but
I've done other things too.

479
00:28:05,700 --> 00:28:08,600
I want to be known for that too
so I can kind of understand that

480
00:28:08,600 --> 00:28:13,200
but it's almost like Emma Once
they started doing this and we

481
00:28:13,200 --> 00:28:18,100
realized how much she missed it
because she was so enthusiastic

482
00:28:18,100 --> 00:28:21,500
the way she talked she was very
emotional and then you could

483
00:28:21,500 --> 00:28:24,200
kind of you And seed, bank will
any time?

484
00:28:24,200 --> 00:28:28,200
Daniel does an interview, he's
kind of animated and he's very

485
00:28:28,200 --> 00:28:30,800
funny.
Even when he's not trying to be,

486
00:28:30,800 --> 00:28:33,800
he's just kind of there.
Rupert was just sit back to

487
00:28:33,800 --> 00:28:37,100
like, yep.
Yep, but he was up, he was a lot

488
00:28:37,100 --> 00:28:41,400
more.
It was a lot more vocal in the

489
00:28:41,400 --> 00:28:43,800
parts where they had him just to
himself.

490
00:28:44,000 --> 00:28:47,000
But it's like why he was there.
He was just letting Danny Emma

491
00:28:47,000 --> 00:28:49,900
talk and you could just see his
face lighting up, like, yeah,

492
00:28:49,900 --> 00:28:54,200
yeah, yeah.
But I think, I feel like Rupert

493
00:28:54,200 --> 00:28:57,200
was probably, like, okay, what
is the baby doing?

494
00:28:57,200 --> 00:29:00,200
What is she doing?
You know, because I think, I

495
00:29:00,200 --> 00:29:03,600
think out of all of them those
that were there.

496
00:29:04,100 --> 00:29:06,800
I believe he's the only one with
the kid as far as the, the

497
00:29:06,800 --> 00:29:09,200
younger cast.
I think he's the only one with

498
00:29:09,200 --> 00:29:11,100
the kid.
Some of the other ones have kids

499
00:29:11,100 --> 00:29:15,800
that weren't there last night,
but I just felt like, I was kind

500
00:29:15,800 --> 00:29:18,000
of sort of looking at Harry Ron
and Hermione.

501
00:29:18,000 --> 00:29:20,800
Like Ron is in the background,
soaking it up and then once you

502
00:29:20,800 --> 00:29:25,600
get him to himself, he Start
talking, but it was just, it was

503
00:29:25,600 --> 00:29:29,700
weird, but it was fun because
you could kind of see, like,

504
00:29:29,900 --> 00:29:33,900
Shadows of Harry Ron and
Hermione while they were having

505
00:29:33,900 --> 00:29:35,500
their conversation.
Yeah.

506
00:29:35,500 --> 00:29:40,600
But like I said, I also could
giving the impression that that

507
00:29:40,600 --> 00:29:44,800
they weren't I only use were
honest, but I can tell there are

508
00:29:44,808 --> 00:29:50,200
a lot of things left unsaid.
Now, wonder if Rupert was one of

509
00:29:50,200 --> 00:29:53,800
those people, like I got a whole
lot of stuff I could say.

510
00:29:54,400 --> 00:29:57,700
So I'm just going to keep my
mouth shut and just stick to the

511
00:29:57,700 --> 00:29:59,400
script.
You did.

512
00:29:59,700 --> 00:30:00,300
I kind of?
Yeah.

513
00:30:00,300 --> 00:30:02,100
I can't.
I kind of, I kind of got that

514
00:30:02,100 --> 00:30:03,700
feeling.
Okay.

515
00:30:04,600 --> 00:30:06,600
I kind of got the feeling that
there was a certain point.

516
00:30:06,600 --> 00:30:08,700
Is I thought was just, like, are
We Done Yet?

517
00:30:08,700 --> 00:30:13,000
I can I go like, I mean, other
than the We're like you said,

518
00:30:13,000 --> 00:30:15,400
wait, Phil Malone.
He was talking a lot, but, but

519
00:30:15,400 --> 00:30:17,800
like, when they were like
talking about certain things, he

520
00:30:17,800 --> 00:30:20,300
was like, yeah, right.
Yeah, I remember that, right?

521
00:30:20,400 --> 00:30:22,600
Yeah, right now it's like honest
really.

522
00:30:22,600 --> 00:30:24,200
He just kind of acting.
I'll be honest.

523
00:30:24,300 --> 00:30:26,400
I wouldn't be surprised if he
forgot some of the stuff that

524
00:30:26,400 --> 00:30:30,100
they were talking about.
I mean, I'll just be honest

525
00:30:30,100 --> 00:30:34,500
because some people don't
remember that kind of detail

526
00:30:34,500 --> 00:30:37,500
like the whole thing where Emily
was talking about her pet

527
00:30:37,500 --> 00:30:40,900
hamster.
And then was like oh yeah, but

528
00:30:40,900 --> 00:30:44,500
that was funny because Rupert
when it came to that River was

529
00:30:44,500 --> 00:30:48,500
like, yeah, you remember.
He was like the crew made a

530
00:30:48,800 --> 00:30:52,600
coffin for it and everything it
was and I was like, wait, what?

531
00:30:52,600 --> 00:30:55,400
And dang was like, hold up, I
definitely wasn't paying

532
00:30:55,400 --> 00:30:57,800
attention to all of that.
So I think it was like,

533
00:30:57,800 --> 00:31:00,800
different things that they
remember.

534
00:31:00,800 --> 00:31:04,400
But like, some of the behind the
scenes things he probably didn't

535
00:31:04,400 --> 00:31:07,600
remember because if you look at
interviews that he did back

536
00:31:07,600 --> 00:31:10,600
then, and even the way he talks
now about the way he was back,

537
00:31:10,600 --> 00:31:13,300
then he was pretty much It's
channeling.

538
00:31:13,300 --> 00:31:17,600
Ron and Ron is one of those
characters where some of the

539
00:31:17,600 --> 00:31:20,800
times, he's not gonna pay
attention to that stuff and I

540
00:31:20,808 --> 00:31:24,400
just felt like he probably he
was probably quiet.

541
00:31:24,400 --> 00:31:26,700
Not because there were things.
He didn't want to say, but he

542
00:31:26,700 --> 00:31:29,100
was probably like, did that
happen?

543
00:31:29,100 --> 00:31:30,900
Oh yeah.
Oh yeah.

544
00:31:31,400 --> 00:31:33,900
Oh yeah.
The funniest, the funny thing

545
00:31:33,900 --> 00:31:37,000
was when they were talking about
having the right there is seized

546
00:31:37,100 --> 00:31:41,900
for the characters, I've heard
that story so many times.

547
00:31:42,100 --> 00:31:46,900
And I laugh every single time I
hear it every single time I

548
00:31:46,900 --> 00:31:49,100
hear, I'm going to tell you what
the funniest part of the

549
00:31:49,100 --> 00:31:54,900
reunions was for me Daniel and
HBC running around, Gringotts

550
00:31:54,900 --> 00:31:59,400
acting like children.
Yeah, that was the best part to

551
00:31:59,400 --> 00:32:01,400
me.
Now the best part was when she

552
00:32:01,400 --> 00:32:14,000
read my God.
Later.

553
00:32:14,400 --> 00:32:18,400
My God Jesus, I am and snow
Shooters.

554
00:32:18,400 --> 00:32:29,000
Shook are putting in her teeth.
And then he's like Daniels like

555
00:32:29,000 --> 00:32:32,200
is she has assured me that these
teeth have not been clean.

556
00:32:32,200 --> 00:32:35,800
Since she took them out of her
mouth at the end of film is.

557
00:32:35,800 --> 00:32:39,400
So yeah, that is such a to be
seeping to devalue.

558
00:32:39,700 --> 00:32:46,700
It is about her, okay?
And it's SSL to her for a look

559
00:32:46,700 --> 00:32:50,400
at Mike's uh backwards.
Like dude she look good.

560
00:32:50,400 --> 00:32:54,400
Well actually they all look good
even Even, even Mark Williams,

561
00:32:54,400 --> 00:32:56,500
with the, with the salt and
pepper hair.

562
00:32:56,500 --> 00:33:00,300
The salt hair looks good, they
all look really good.

563
00:33:00,700 --> 00:33:02,100
Yeah, well, I was also going to
her.

564
00:33:02,100 --> 00:33:07,700
I was like, damn, I guess Tim
Burton did HP know what?

565
00:33:07,700 --> 00:33:09,400
It's like, yeah, her and was
like, yeah.

566
00:33:09,400 --> 00:33:12,100
And, and my personal hero,
Matthew Lewis, the king of the

567
00:33:12,108 --> 00:33:14,700
glow up, like still look good.
You know?

568
00:33:14,700 --> 00:33:19,500
And and I have to say I'm saying
he is an Undisputed King of the

569
00:33:19,500 --> 00:33:21,900
glow up, like five movie, go up
there.

570
00:33:22,300 --> 00:33:25,100
There's no just no, come to me.
Well here's the here's the funny

571
00:33:25,100 --> 00:33:27,200
thing though.
So you have to realize that in

572
00:33:27,200 --> 00:33:32,600
the last few films, they
actually put fake teeth and a

573
00:33:32,600 --> 00:33:37,300
fat suit on him.
Because you know as as you you

574
00:33:37,300 --> 00:33:41,100
know as you go through puberty
sometimes you're you know you

575
00:33:41,100 --> 00:33:44,700
don't look or sound or you know
things change about you and they

576
00:33:44,700 --> 00:33:47,400
wanted to keep that I guess
consistent with the character.

577
00:33:47,400 --> 00:33:52,100
But I will also say to I've met
him several times at DragonCon,

578
00:33:52,100 --> 00:33:56,700
he is one of the nicest,
absolute nicest people.

579
00:33:56,700 --> 00:34:02,200
There are I've told this story
several times but one of the

580
00:34:02,200 --> 00:34:05,900
times I was at Dragon Con My
kids were too little to go at

581
00:34:05,900 --> 00:34:10,900
the time and so I went to go see
him to, you know, meet him get

582
00:34:10,900 --> 00:34:14,600
his autograph or whatever and he
actually got on the phone with

583
00:34:14,600 --> 00:34:18,000
my kids and talk to them for a
few minutes so that you know

584
00:34:18,300 --> 00:34:20,900
that was like one of the best
dragon kind of celebrity

585
00:34:20,900 --> 00:34:23,600
experiences I've had.
So he's really cool.

586
00:34:23,800 --> 00:34:26,500
You are good at getting
celebrities to talk to your kids

587
00:34:28,699 --> 00:34:37,100
something Because Jim and I like
we used to interact on on

588
00:34:37,100 --> 00:34:41,000
Twitter all the time and I
actually had met him at another

589
00:34:41,000 --> 00:34:45,300
convention, several years back
and I was just shocked at the

590
00:34:45,300 --> 00:34:48,600
fact that he remembered me and
he, you know, my daughter was

591
00:34:48,600 --> 00:34:50,600
with me.
He was like you have another

592
00:34:50,600 --> 00:34:53,600
daughter and you have a son to I
was like yes Sons to too young

593
00:34:53,600 --> 00:34:57,200
to come daughter was too tired
after yesterday so he got on the

594
00:34:57,200 --> 00:34:58,700
phone and fuss they her.
So yeah.

595
00:34:58,900 --> 00:35:02,700
But um yeah getting back to HP.
Yeah.

596
00:35:02,700 --> 00:35:06,400
Matt Matthew is one of Like the
nicest guys, like always

597
00:35:06,400 --> 00:35:10,700
smiling, you know, very friendly
to his fans, he came to the Yule

598
00:35:10,700 --> 00:35:13,100
Ball.
The first that, no, it wasn't

599
00:35:13,100 --> 00:35:15,700
that first year.
I think it was the second time

600
00:35:15,700 --> 00:35:18,300
he came to DragonCon, he
actually came to the Yule Ball.

601
00:35:18,300 --> 00:35:23,300
Spoke to people is looking for a
replacement for Daniel.

602
00:35:23,300 --> 00:35:26,400
Craig, as James Bond.
It's just called Matthew Lewis.

603
00:35:27,300 --> 00:35:29,700
You know what, how will not be
mad at that?

604
00:35:30,000 --> 00:35:32,300
I would not be mad at that, at
all.

605
00:35:32,500 --> 00:35:35,400
That would ya?
I would, I would sign that

606
00:35:35,400 --> 00:35:38,200
petition.
Yes, let's get mad because I

607
00:35:38,200 --> 00:35:40,800
think he could do it, do it, he
can do it.

608
00:35:40,900 --> 00:35:42,400
Yeah.
Yeah.

609
00:35:42,400 --> 00:35:45,300
Yes.
Where's happier in the universe?

610
00:35:45,300 --> 00:35:47,800
This and Isaac's look look
pretty good too.

611
00:35:49,000 --> 00:35:51,200
Yeah.
Can't can we talk about how they

612
00:35:51,200 --> 00:35:55,300
are at the age?
They were in the nineteen years

613
00:35:55,300 --> 00:35:57,400
later.
Aren't they close to the age?

614
00:35:57,700 --> 00:36:00,300
Yes.
And that in fact, I think that I

615
00:36:00,300 --> 00:36:04,000
think either Daniel or mention
that they said something about

616
00:36:04,100 --> 00:36:05,700
About.
Yeah, we look better than we did

617
00:36:05,700 --> 00:36:08,700
in the epilogue and that's even
in the second Apple all because

618
00:36:08,700 --> 00:36:13,100
if you ever saw pictures from
the first epilogue light before

619
00:36:13,100 --> 00:36:17,700
they went in and did reshoots,
they look so old and I was like

620
00:36:18,300 --> 00:36:22,000
and I think it made me mad
because for Deathly Hallows, I

621
00:36:22,000 --> 00:36:27,000
was actually the age that they
were supposed to be in the

622
00:36:27,000 --> 00:36:30,300
epilogue and I was like, Island,
nothing nowhere near that bad so

623
00:36:30,300 --> 00:36:36,000
they need to fix this and then
they did reshoots And it looked

624
00:36:36,000 --> 00:36:39,700
a little bit better but I still
felt like y'all still look a

625
00:36:39,700 --> 00:36:43,200
little bit old but, you know,
Ruben did say that he I guess

626
00:36:43,200 --> 00:36:46,500
they changed his hairline and
they put them in a little fat

627
00:36:46,500 --> 00:36:48,500
suit.
So that's, I guess kind of

628
00:36:48,500 --> 00:36:51,100
realistic.
They didn't look as bad in the

629
00:36:51,100 --> 00:36:53,100
epilogue as people make them out
to be.

630
00:36:53,100 --> 00:36:57,300
I just don't feel like they,
they look that because I have

631
00:36:57,600 --> 00:37:03,900
no, I have seen.
I have seen some people who are

632
00:37:03,900 --> 00:37:06,900
they That age, they were
supposed to be 36 in Jenny.

633
00:37:06,900 --> 00:37:09,700
I think was probably supposed to
be like now Jenny.

634
00:37:09,700 --> 00:37:11,900
I will say they did age her a
little bit too much because

635
00:37:11,900 --> 00:37:15,500
Jenny is a few years younger
than them, and they did make her

636
00:37:15,500 --> 00:37:18,300
look like they have the darks.
You know, their eyes were little

637
00:37:18,300 --> 00:37:22,000
darkened, so they did make her
look a little bit older.

638
00:37:22,000 --> 00:37:27,400
But I have seen some people at
that age. 36 who look like they

639
00:37:27,700 --> 00:37:31,300
might be 20 years older so they
didn't look that bad.

640
00:37:31,300 --> 00:37:35,000
I think they could have looked
better but you know, I don't

641
00:37:35,000 --> 00:37:39,500
know, because I'm gonna be
honest, we're African-American

642
00:37:39,500 --> 00:37:40,500
black.
Don't crack.

643
00:37:40,700 --> 00:37:45,200
Like some of us will be 70,
still looking younger than us

644
00:37:45,200 --> 00:37:49,400
now.
So, you know, I just, I didn't,

645
00:37:49,400 --> 00:37:54,200
I didn't, I didn't think it was
as bad as people, like, I know

646
00:37:54,200 --> 00:37:58,100
people who absolutely hated it.
And I mean, even to this day,

647
00:37:58,100 --> 00:38:02,000
they still talk about it.
Like, I'm like it wasn't.

648
00:38:02,100 --> 00:38:04,800
It wasn't that bad.
Yeah, they looked a little

649
00:38:04,800 --> 00:38:07,300
older.
But who knows, I mean think

650
00:38:07,300 --> 00:38:10,600
about it.
They were stressed out as kids

651
00:38:10,900 --> 00:38:13,900
that had to have caught up the
hats of catfish caught up with

652
00:38:13,900 --> 00:38:17,100
them.
It was almost like, literally

653
00:38:17,100 --> 00:38:21,400
murdered twice.
Like no Baltimore came after

654
00:38:21,400 --> 00:38:23,600
this dude.
Every single year for seven

655
00:38:23,600 --> 00:38:26,800
years he was a father could
divert twice.

656
00:38:28,200 --> 00:38:31,300
Yes, yes.
That will age a person.

657
00:38:31,800 --> 00:38:35,500
Oh yeah.
They were all right.

658
00:38:35,500 --> 00:38:40,900
They were all right but um I'm
trying to think Joy I enjoyed

659
00:38:40,900 --> 00:38:43,600
seeing them all together.
Like I see especially the

660
00:38:43,600 --> 00:38:47,200
background people.
Yeah I wish we could have seen

661
00:38:47,200 --> 00:38:50,800
more of them though.
Yeah like I wouldn't have been

662
00:38:50,800 --> 00:38:53,300
mad at that done.
Maybe another 30 minutes and we

663
00:38:53,300 --> 00:38:56,500
could have actually gotten a
little bit more of the

664
00:38:56,500 --> 00:38:59,600
background characters or like
talked a little bit more to the

665
00:38:59,600 --> 00:39:03,600
Weasleys or even like Tom and
Alfred Matthew.

666
00:39:03,800 --> 00:39:06,800
Get all of them together.
You know that I think that would

667
00:39:06,800 --> 00:39:08,500
have been cool.
What is this fun?

668
00:39:10,100 --> 00:39:12,300
Even Bonnie.
Yeah.

669
00:39:12,800 --> 00:39:16,600
Um but yeah you know not not I
think about it.

670
00:39:16,600 --> 00:39:20,200
I think some of that had to have
been filmed like they could have

671
00:39:20,200 --> 00:39:23,100
all been filmed together because
I can't see.

672
00:39:24,200 --> 00:39:27,500
I can't see where Jason Isaacs
and Tom Felton would not have

673
00:39:27,500 --> 00:39:32,700
done a segment together because
they talk a lot off-screen like

674
00:39:32,700 --> 00:39:36,700
even now they've gotten
together, you know, since then

675
00:39:36,700 --> 00:39:39,500
like when they when they talk to
each other on social media, they

676
00:39:39,500 --> 00:39:43,000
are still dad and son.
So like they really have a close

677
00:39:43,000 --> 00:39:45,900
relationship.
That was funny when Tom, he was

678
00:39:45,900 --> 00:39:49,200
like, how are you like really
really nice of any be like the

679
00:39:49,200 --> 00:39:51,100
worst person in the world.
I mean, to be really nice in

680
00:39:51,100 --> 00:39:55,300
here.
Where he hit him with a cane and

681
00:39:55,300 --> 00:39:57,700
actually bid him, he's like, I
was like, oh my God, are you

682
00:39:57,707 --> 00:39:59,000
okay?
I'm so sorry.

683
00:39:59,000 --> 00:40:05,900
So, let me tell you that came
those teeth real deal because we

684
00:40:07,000 --> 00:40:11,100
had a group of friends that hung
out, like, very regularly, like,

685
00:40:11,400 --> 00:40:16,500
2008 to 2010.
And one of them is a huge

686
00:40:16,500 --> 00:40:20,300
Lucius, Malfoy fan.
So what we did for her birthday,

687
00:40:20,300 --> 00:40:24,300
one year instead of us all
getting her individual gifts, We

688
00:40:24,300 --> 00:40:26,900
all pitched in and bought her
the Lucius.

689
00:40:26,900 --> 00:40:30,500
Malfoy he came that comes with
the wand.

690
00:40:31,400 --> 00:40:35,200
And let me tell you those teeth,
so they really are sharp.

691
00:40:35,200 --> 00:40:39,100
They really do hurt.
So, yeah, I can imagine just

692
00:40:39,400 --> 00:40:42,900
having those teeth put in that
poor little baby's hand, but

693
00:40:42,900 --> 00:40:47,000
then when he said that Tom said,
no, it'll be good for the scene.

694
00:40:49,400 --> 00:40:55,900
Like what basis at 11 years old.
Like rip know the funny part was

695
00:40:55,900 --> 00:40:59,400
when he was talking about the
auditions and he said that they

696
00:40:59,400 --> 00:41:03,200
had the boom mic and he said
just a little girl says well

697
00:41:03,200 --> 00:41:05,100
what is that?
And he was like I think I even

698
00:41:05,100 --> 00:41:10,100
said a boomer a boom I'd uh and
then you said that, you know,

699
00:41:10,500 --> 00:41:12,900
you know, I'm sitting here
saying all of this but I had

700
00:41:12,900 --> 00:41:15,800
never really been on set before
he said, and I remember that

701
00:41:15,800 --> 00:41:17,900
because that little girl was
Emma.

702
00:41:17,900 --> 00:41:22,500
I started hollering.
I said oh so you were Draco and

703
00:41:22,500 --> 00:41:26,700
Hermione right from the start.
Like she's trying to get more

704
00:41:26,700 --> 00:41:28,700
knowledge.
Like what is this weird thing

705
00:41:28,700 --> 00:41:31,400
and he's like uh does a
microphone.

706
00:41:31,400 --> 00:41:37,200
Oh, that was fun.
Speaking of those two.

707
00:41:37,700 --> 00:41:42,300
I know that they say there is
nothing romantic between them, I

708
00:41:42,300 --> 00:41:44,600
need them to.
They they're just there a couple

709
00:41:44,600 --> 00:41:46,300
of my mind now.
Just whatever.

710
00:41:47,200 --> 00:41:49,700
A couple of more months
especially after after saying

711
00:41:49,700 --> 00:41:52,900
all this after saying all that
she was like I had such a crush

712
00:41:52,900 --> 00:41:56,400
on him and then out of that like
ad.

713
00:41:56,400 --> 00:42:00,500
Yeah and she said that's my
story and I'm sticking to it.

714
00:42:01,100 --> 00:42:03,200
She was like that's all I can
say about that.

715
00:42:03,200 --> 00:42:05,300
Yeah well that's all I'm going
to say about that.

716
00:42:05,300 --> 00:42:09,500
Yeah so I mean but I mean like I
said I found a follow everyone

717
00:42:09,500 --> 00:42:12,900
on social media and I know that
like Tom has shared post like

718
00:42:13,200 --> 00:42:16,600
pre-pandemic.
One of them will come out to see

719
00:42:16,600 --> 00:42:18,400
the And date, like, hang out, or
whatever.

720
00:42:18,400 --> 00:42:22,600
And it'd be like, really fun,
really, really, friendship type

721
00:42:22,600 --> 00:42:24,600
things, you know.
I'm not saying that they're not.

722
00:42:24,600 --> 00:42:26,200
I believe they are real close
friends.

723
00:42:26,200 --> 00:42:29,500
But if y'all got that much
affection for each other, and

724
00:42:29,600 --> 00:42:32,200
there's been issues, like,
neither one of them far as I

725
00:42:32,200 --> 00:42:33,600
know, is in a relationship right
now.

726
00:42:33,600 --> 00:42:35,300
I just need y'all to go on hand,
just do it.

727
00:42:35,300 --> 00:42:42,100
Just just, just go for it.
I just I feel like a mother,

728
00:42:42,100 --> 00:42:46,400
like, pushing pushing these two
together like they just, yeah,

729
00:42:46,400 --> 00:42:47,600
they were cute talking about
him.

730
00:42:48,000 --> 00:42:50,600
You know, who's a good boy that
Tom Felton should talk.

731
00:42:51,400 --> 00:42:55,000
They just they just seem so cute
and they have genuine affection

732
00:42:55,000 --> 00:42:57,100
for each other.
I just I loved it though.

733
00:42:57,400 --> 00:43:01,700
I mean, but even even if they're
not, you know, in a relationship

734
00:43:01,700 --> 00:43:04,800
or whatever, whatever.
I just, I really liked seeing

735
00:43:04,800 --> 00:43:08,800
that even after all of these
years, those to it.

736
00:43:09,000 --> 00:43:12,600
If nobody else those two seem
like they are still very close

737
00:43:12,600 --> 00:43:15,300
friends and they have genuine
affection for each other and I

738
00:43:15,308 --> 00:43:19,300
like seeing that because all of
them were together for so long,

739
00:43:19,300 --> 00:43:22,400
like, Gary Oldman said it feels
like, you know, he said it

740
00:43:22,400 --> 00:43:25,800
really did feel like a family
because you don't really have

741
00:43:25,800 --> 00:43:29,000
any other films where I can't
think of any other films that

742
00:43:29,000 --> 00:43:31,700
went eight series.
You know what I'm saying?

743
00:43:31,900 --> 00:43:36,100
That's a long time to be on set,
with the same people now with

744
00:43:36,100 --> 00:43:38,700
the same cast, no, that was
right.

745
00:43:38,900 --> 00:43:40,600
Right.
And I mean, I think they even

746
00:43:40,600 --> 00:43:44,200
said they have the same crew so
you know, I think that's you

747
00:43:44,200 --> 00:43:46,900
know it that's just something I
like here.

748
00:43:46,900 --> 00:43:50,700
And I like seeing the way they
got together, serious telling

749
00:43:51,100 --> 00:43:55,000
HBC he was like, you killed me
and she was like, yeah, I'm

750
00:43:55,000 --> 00:43:58,900
sorry, but it had to be done was
like, no, it didn't, it did not

751
00:43:58,900 --> 00:44:00,900
it absolutely do not have to be
done.

752
00:44:02,000 --> 00:44:05,400
Like I held let me tell you
reading the books and then

753
00:44:05,400 --> 00:44:10,600
watching the films I held onto
the Ability, the series was

754
00:44:10,600 --> 00:44:12,800
still alive.
I was like, he's just beyond the

755
00:44:12,800 --> 00:44:19,700
veil, didn't tell, how many
boards and poetry and fiction

756
00:44:20,000 --> 00:44:22,400
about him coming back for the
veil, all the different

757
00:44:22,400 --> 00:44:24,100
theories.
Which I don't have a theory.

758
00:44:24,100 --> 00:44:25,700
All the different theories.
I'm sorry.

759
00:44:25,700 --> 00:44:27,700
Wait, I'm sorry, what was that
about him?

760
00:44:27,900 --> 00:44:30,600
He didn't really die.
He should know, he was Advocate

761
00:44:30,700 --> 00:44:34,000
David, he was dead, he feels
that.

762
00:44:34,000 --> 00:44:38,400
See that's the thing, that's the
thing because in the books, she

763
00:44:38,400 --> 00:44:42,200
never Set a spell, she didn't
like, when she hit him, she use

764
00:44:42,200 --> 00:44:44,800
nonverbal magic.
And of course we could go into

765
00:44:44,800 --> 00:44:46,600
differences between book and
films.

766
00:44:46,600 --> 00:44:49,600
And in the film's, they used a
lot of nonverbal magic, which in

767
00:44:49,600 --> 00:44:53,400
the books he couldn't do unless
you were of a certain level of

768
00:44:53,400 --> 00:44:56,600
wizard.
But but, you know, for films, I

769
00:44:56,600 --> 00:45:00,500
think it now that I'm older and
thinking about the film's, it

770
00:45:00,500 --> 00:45:02,200
probably worked out better that
way.

771
00:45:02,400 --> 00:45:06,100
Because especially, like, during
the battle scenes, I really

772
00:45:06,100 --> 00:45:08,700
don't want to hear you yelling
out every single spell.

773
00:45:08,900 --> 00:45:11,000
Every time you're doing it,
that's just tedious.

774
00:45:11,000 --> 00:45:12,900
We've had that conversation
about that.

775
00:45:12,900 --> 00:45:17,800
We have we have but it was still
one of those even though she

776
00:45:17,800 --> 00:45:24,400
said, The curse, I was still
holding on to the fact that he

777
00:45:24,400 --> 00:45:29,500
could come back, but I think
what happened was, I think Order

778
00:45:29,500 --> 00:45:32,400
of the Phoenix, the movie came
out.

779
00:45:33,000 --> 00:45:39,900
I'm trying to think right before
Deathly Hallows and I think when

780
00:45:39,900 --> 00:45:45,300
I saw the movie that's kind of
what convinced me in my mind

781
00:45:45,300 --> 00:45:49,400
that even in the later books he
would not come back because like

782
00:45:49,400 --> 00:45:54,200
I said, reading it in the books
You kind of think that there's a

783
00:45:54,200 --> 00:46:00,000
chance for him to come back just
failed through the veil like and

784
00:46:00,000 --> 00:46:03,500
I think even I think even the
color of the spill that hit him

785
00:46:03,500 --> 00:46:05,900
was different.
So you think, okay, there's a

786
00:46:05,900 --> 00:46:08,900
chance there's just, you know,
Luna says, she hears other

787
00:46:08,900 --> 00:46:10,800
voices, Harry can hear other
voices.

788
00:46:10,800 --> 00:46:15,200
So maybe there's a chance when I
saw in order of the Phoenix.

789
00:46:16,100 --> 00:46:18,700
And she did the spell and he
went through.

790
00:46:19,100 --> 00:46:21,600
I cried so much because I was
like, oh, that means he can't

791
00:46:21,600 --> 00:46:24,100
come back in the books because
they would never have killed him

792
00:46:24,100 --> 00:46:26,800
in the movies.
If they knew, he was still going

793
00:46:26,800 --> 00:46:29,200
to be alive in the books.
I lost it.

794
00:46:29,200 --> 00:46:33,800
Then I was like, really then
actually reminds me of something

795
00:46:33,800 --> 00:46:37,400
else there.
I'd like to win speaking of book

796
00:46:37,400 --> 00:46:41,900
and movies how because I had
heard the story before her Alan

797
00:46:41,900 --> 00:46:45,500
Rickman knew what was going to
happen his character.

798
00:46:47,200 --> 00:46:55,800
Yeah, and I remember reading
that in response to that was

799
00:46:55,800 --> 00:46:58,400
hilarious because he was like,
of course he did.

800
00:46:58,400 --> 00:47:02,900
Of course he had an answer Alan
Rickman who else?

801
00:47:02,900 --> 00:47:05,900
But yes, I remember we were you
see why did you do that?

802
00:47:06,400 --> 00:47:12,400
I'll tell you later.
But I remember when I first read

803
00:47:12,400 --> 00:47:16,300
that in an interview either I
read it or not, I think I saw

804
00:47:16,300 --> 00:47:19,500
it.
I saw him talking about it and

805
00:47:19,500 --> 00:47:24,000
he was talking about how he went
to dinner with she, who must not

806
00:47:24,000 --> 00:47:29,700
be named and they were talking
about it and he asked her, you

807
00:47:29,700 --> 00:47:32,000
know, he was like, is there
anything that you can tell me

808
00:47:32,000 --> 00:47:33,900
that?
What like influence my

809
00:47:34,100 --> 00:47:36,200
performance?
Is there something that I need

810
00:47:36,200 --> 00:47:39,300
to know?
And then she told him and I was

811
00:47:39,300 --> 00:47:45,800
like, so he sat on this for the
whole ten years.

812
00:47:46,600 --> 00:47:51,000
And never told a soul.
By, that's the person you want

813
00:47:51,000 --> 00:47:55,500
to keep your secrets.
That is the person you want,

814
00:47:55,500 --> 00:47:59,200
keeping your secret.
Imagine how many acting choices?

815
00:47:59,200 --> 00:48:02,400
He made just based on having
that inside, knowledge.

816
00:48:02,800 --> 00:48:04,400
How many times he told the
director?

817
00:48:04,500 --> 00:48:06,900
No, no.
I'm gonna do it this way.

818
00:48:07,200 --> 00:48:10,800
Here's why trust me, you know?
Yeah.

819
00:48:12,000 --> 00:48:15,900
Yeah, right.
That was interesting, you know?

820
00:48:15,900 --> 00:48:19,600
And and like I said watching
Gary.

821
00:48:19,800 --> 00:48:23,400
Old man's reaction.
When Dan told him that he was

822
00:48:23,400 --> 00:48:28,400
just so tickled.
And then he was like, of course,

823
00:48:28,500 --> 00:48:32,400
it's Alan.
Who wouldn't tell him like Alan

824
00:48:32,400 --> 00:48:35,500
Rickman probably could have
gotten the secrets to all of his

825
00:48:35,500 --> 00:48:40,600
roles without even asking.
And and would have just carried

826
00:48:40,600 --> 00:48:43,700
on like he didn't know a damn
thing and they bring them

827
00:48:43,700 --> 00:48:45,700
something else I want to talk
about.

828
00:48:47,300 --> 00:48:50,600
I didn't realize it at the time
and I didn't realize them to

829
00:48:50,600 --> 00:48:56,200
watching this special like how
many brilliant British actors

830
00:48:56,800 --> 00:49:00,200
were in the series like the
cream of the crop.

831
00:49:00,200 --> 00:49:04,400
The best of the best were in
this children story, write it

832
00:49:04,400 --> 00:49:07,900
like Chris Columbus said it was
so it was so funny because the

833
00:49:07,900 --> 00:49:11,500
kids you know when they were
doing Philosopher's Stone, he

834
00:49:11,500 --> 00:49:16,400
said they really had no idea of
the magnitude of British acting

835
00:49:16,400 --> 00:49:19,200
royalty that they were working
with.

836
00:49:19,800 --> 00:49:23,800
And then when Dan started
talking about the whole Gary

837
00:49:23,800 --> 00:49:27,400
Oldman thing at Emma was like
yeah, you were like you got to

838
00:49:27,400 --> 00:49:29,000
be cool.
It's Gary Oldman.

839
00:49:30,100 --> 00:49:33,300
I was like I can actually see
Daniel saying that because even

840
00:49:33,300 --> 00:49:38,100
watching if you ever watched any
of the interviews and

841
00:49:38,100 --> 00:49:43,500
behind-the-scenes stuff, when he
talks about Gary Oldman even

842
00:49:43,500 --> 00:49:46,900
back, then as a
fourteen-year-old, he talked

843
00:49:46,900 --> 00:49:53,200
about him with such reverence.
And respect and love, you know,

844
00:49:53,200 --> 00:49:57,400
and I just remember reading
stuff about how close they did

845
00:49:57,400 --> 00:50:02,600
get on say almost was like the
uncle nephew or, you know,

846
00:50:02,600 --> 00:50:07,700
mentor-mentee relationship and
so that was nice to see because

847
00:50:07,700 --> 00:50:09,800
you can still see a little bit
of that there.

848
00:50:09,800 --> 00:50:12,500
And then to hear the other
people like David Heyman.

849
00:50:12,500 --> 00:50:16,600
And Chris Columbus, talk about
the relationship and Alfonso

850
00:50:16,600 --> 00:50:19,100
Quran.
Listening to them, talk about

851
00:50:19,100 --> 00:50:22,200
the A ship a, how it, you know,
how it kind of formed.

852
00:50:22,200 --> 00:50:25,300
Those two characters was really
good because I will tell you

853
00:50:25,300 --> 00:50:34,000
this, as far as the character of
Sirius Black, when I read him in

854
00:50:34,000 --> 00:50:39,800
the books and he and he went
through the veil, I actually did

855
00:50:39,800 --> 00:50:46,000
not have much of a reaction
because the way that she wrote

856
00:50:46,000 --> 00:50:52,100
that relationship, It was It was
supposed to be Godfather godson

857
00:50:52,400 --> 00:50:56,000
but you kind of got the feeling
that in the books.

858
00:50:56,000 --> 00:51:00,500
He was only looking at Harry as
like well not only looking at

859
00:51:00,500 --> 00:51:04,700
but he was mainly looking at
Harry as a replacement for James

860
00:51:05,200 --> 00:51:07,800
you know.
And if you think about it, the

861
00:51:07,800 --> 00:51:12,900
amount of time that serious
spent in jail in Azkaban, like

862
00:51:12,900 --> 00:51:15,500
think about it.
He was around 21 when he got

863
00:51:15,500 --> 00:51:20,700
locked up.
So Sulli as far as seeing Harry

864
00:51:20,700 --> 00:51:24,200
and seeing this, you know, this
spitting image of his best

865
00:51:24,200 --> 00:51:27,300
friend who he lost at such a
young age and Harry at that

866
00:51:27,300 --> 00:51:31,300
time, was between 14 and 17.
When he started getting to know

867
00:51:31,300 --> 00:51:38,300
him, I could see him, you know,
kind of Putting Harry in that

868
00:51:38,300 --> 00:51:42,000
spot to replace his best friend.
But in the books, I didn't

869
00:51:42,000 --> 00:51:45,600
really feel connected to him
because I felt like, oh, you

870
00:51:45,600 --> 00:51:48,100
know, he just looks at him as a
replacement to James.

871
00:51:48,100 --> 00:51:51,000
He's not looking at him as an
actual separate person.

872
00:51:51,000 --> 00:51:54,800
I feel like we got to see that
fleshed out a little bit more in

873
00:51:54,800 --> 00:51:58,100
the movies and that's what made
me love that relationship

874
00:51:58,100 --> 00:52:02,600
because yes, there was that one
moment in order of the Phoenix

875
00:52:02,600 --> 00:52:06,700
where they were fighting and he
says, nice one James but that's

876
00:52:06,700 --> 00:52:11,600
the only Time you ever really
see him make that connection, or

877
00:52:11,600 --> 00:52:14,200
make that mistake, the rest of
the time.

878
00:52:14,200 --> 00:52:18,600
When you see them in the films,
they really are like Godfather

879
00:52:18,600 --> 00:52:22,400
and godson and that's what
endeared me to that relationship

880
00:52:22,400 --> 00:52:24,900
in the films.
Which is why it hurts so fucking

881
00:52:24,900 --> 00:52:28,700
much when he went through the
veil, because I felt it then.

882
00:52:28,900 --> 00:52:32,900
And then in that movie Order of
the Phoenix, when he went

883
00:52:32,900 --> 00:52:37,400
through the Veil, And Lupin was
holding Harry and he did that

884
00:52:37,400 --> 00:52:39,700
screen and there was nothing
coming out.

885
00:52:39,700 --> 00:52:44,300
That was one of the most
gut-wrenching scenes for the

886
00:52:44,300 --> 00:52:47,600
film series for me ever.
I think the only one that tops

887
00:52:47,600 --> 00:52:51,300
it is.
Amos Diggory yelling after

888
00:52:51,300 --> 00:52:53,700
Cedric gets killed.
Oh my God.

889
00:52:53,900 --> 00:52:58,400
That when they showed that seen
a storm like I was, I still I

890
00:52:58,400 --> 00:53:03,200
recalled the shock of when when
he got hit with the evident that

891
00:53:03,200 --> 00:53:06,900
I was like, It's like, whoa,
whoa, whoa, whoa.

892
00:53:07,300 --> 00:53:12,400
And like like I still felt that
feeling like that was just that

893
00:53:12,400 --> 00:53:16,000
was just like you said just
gut-wrenching especially here in

894
00:53:16,000 --> 00:53:24,100
Cologne every single time it's
movie and I hear him scream.

895
00:53:25,100 --> 00:53:29,500
That's my boy like the
Waterworks are coming, I don't

896
00:53:29,500 --> 00:53:31,100
care.
I can watch that movie.

897
00:53:31,100 --> 00:53:34,600
Three times back to back to
back, I'm going to cry at this.

898
00:53:34,700 --> 00:53:40,100
I've seen every single time
every single time, it's just one

899
00:53:40,100 --> 00:53:46,000
of those gut wrenching all yeah,
it was bad.

900
00:53:46,000 --> 00:53:48,800
And and the crazy thing is
Goblet of Fire was the first

901
00:53:48,800 --> 00:53:51,200
Harry Potter movie.
I saw in the movie theater

902
00:53:51,800 --> 00:53:55,200
because like I said, I got it to
the Series in 2005, that was the

903
00:53:55,200 --> 00:53:58,100
year.
Half-Blood Prince came out, the

904
00:53:58,100 --> 00:54:01,500
book and Order of the Phoenix, I
mean, a goblet of fire came out

905
00:54:01,500 --> 00:54:03,600
the movie.
So that was the first Harry

906
00:54:03,600 --> 00:54:06,300
Potter movie.
I went to go See, I went to go

907
00:54:06,300 --> 00:54:08,900
see it by myself first because I
wanted to make sure it was

908
00:54:08,900 --> 00:54:12,400
appropriate for the kids.
Then I took the kids to see it

909
00:54:12,900 --> 00:54:17,500
when no actually, no.
That one was, I went all three

910
00:54:17,500 --> 00:54:21,400
of us, went to go see it when I
tell you, when Cedric hit the

911
00:54:21,400 --> 00:54:29,500
ground, Dude, we were all like,
huh.

912
00:54:30,300 --> 00:54:33,200
It was bad.
It was bad.

913
00:54:33,200 --> 00:54:37,300
And they played that one little
snippet during this reunions and

914
00:54:37,300 --> 00:54:41,000
I was like, I'm not going to I'm
not going anywhere with my

915
00:54:41,000 --> 00:54:47,100
tissue, can't help it.
Um, since we're on this topic,

916
00:54:48,200 --> 00:54:55,900
emotional like when it first
played The Deathly Hallows when

917
00:54:56,200 --> 00:54:58,200
Harry had the resurrection
Stone.

918
00:54:59,200 --> 00:55:02,300
And he saw all the people, you
know, the people that he lost

919
00:55:02,300 --> 00:55:04,300
his parents.
Hmm.

920
00:55:05,200 --> 00:55:08,700
Serious.
We not Remus.

921
00:55:09,100 --> 00:55:14,200
Yep.
Uranus and I was, this was the

922
00:55:14,200 --> 00:55:19,000
first time, like I got really
emotional and it's doing it

923
00:55:19,300 --> 00:55:24,500
little clip and then Michelle
played the end of the movie

924
00:55:25,700 --> 00:55:27,900
right after that because she
wanted to watch again.

925
00:55:27,900 --> 00:55:31,000
And when that seek him, I'm
like, I don't know.

926
00:55:31,000 --> 00:55:35,100
It made me think of a panel we
had and I was like, am I about

927
00:55:35,100 --> 00:55:37,400
to like start crying now?
Yeah.

928
00:55:37,400 --> 00:55:42,400
Yeah, that's our thing about,
you know, wanting to be with the

929
00:55:42,400 --> 00:55:47,300
people that you lost, how
powerful that moment was, like,

930
00:55:47,300 --> 00:55:50,800
you played so much better on the
in the movie than it is in the

931
00:55:50,800 --> 00:55:54,000
book that.
Yeah, it's just, I don't know.

932
00:55:54,900 --> 00:55:57,900
I got emotional during that part
like, both times like when they

933
00:55:57,900 --> 00:56:01,700
talked about it, And I don't
know whose it was a lot.

934
00:56:01,700 --> 00:56:03,300
Closer hits it.
It's different when you're a

935
00:56:03,300 --> 00:56:06,800
father now cuz like I mean it's
like when you have older kids

936
00:56:06,800 --> 00:56:11,000
that like you can put in that
position it's just like oh yeah

937
00:56:11,000 --> 00:56:12,500
I'd be the same way.
Yeah.

938
00:56:12,800 --> 00:56:17,200
Yeah but I think I agree with
you Anthony.

939
00:56:17,200 --> 00:56:21,100
As far as you know, those
moments are emotional in the

940
00:56:21,100 --> 00:56:26,800
books but there are some things
like granted reading the books.

941
00:56:28,000 --> 00:56:29,800
You're going to get a lot more
detail.

942
00:56:30,000 --> 00:56:33,300
You're going to get a lot more
Exposition and there are things

943
00:56:33,300 --> 00:56:36,200
in the books that they left out
of the films that I feel like

944
00:56:36,200 --> 00:56:41,000
we're huge mistakes.
But there are some things that

945
00:56:41,900 --> 00:56:47,300
when you experience it in a
visual form it has a whole

946
00:56:47,300 --> 00:56:50,700
different meaning and it hits
you differently than you just

947
00:56:50,700 --> 00:56:53,700
reading it like yeah your
imagination is one thing and

948
00:56:53,700 --> 00:56:57,100
it's great but actually seeing
it on there.

949
00:56:57,300 --> 00:57:05,100
It like okay Snape's death on
screen that hit so much harder

950
00:57:05,100 --> 00:57:09,600
for me than in the books.
Not it was bad in the books, it

951
00:57:09,600 --> 00:57:12,000
was bad.
I remember crying and I'm not a

952
00:57:12,000 --> 00:57:15,000
snake fan.
I'm not a snake sympathizer,

953
00:57:15,500 --> 00:57:19,700
none of that.
But watching that scene in the

954
00:57:19,700 --> 00:57:23,800
movies and like literally
filling every single day.

955
00:57:24,000 --> 00:57:27,000
Oh my God.
That's that's something you just

956
00:57:27,000 --> 00:57:29,800
can't that there's no
comparison.

957
00:57:30,100 --> 00:57:35,500
And on the flip side, David
eyes, he hits the same in the

958
00:57:35,500 --> 00:57:38,200
book and he's the same in the
movie.

959
00:57:38,200 --> 00:57:43,600
If like, You just feel it.
But you always tell the story

960
00:57:43,600 --> 00:57:48,300
about how users through the book
across the room was that, I

961
00:57:48,300 --> 00:57:50,700
remember seeing it because I
really in the bookstore, I

962
00:57:50,700 --> 00:57:51,900
think.
And I just remember sitting

963
00:57:51,900 --> 00:57:59,500
there like, really Really.
And then happens when you let me

964
00:57:59,500 --> 00:58:03,500
see it's the same and that's all
seems like it's the same for me.

965
00:58:03,700 --> 00:58:07,600
Hmm.
And I'm not here every time.

966
00:58:08,400 --> 00:58:09,100
Yeah.
Okay.

967
00:58:09,100 --> 00:58:12,000
SOL SOL we did who hasn't read
the book?

968
00:58:12,000 --> 00:58:16,300
It does it hit different because
it was because they ended the

969
00:58:16,300 --> 00:58:18,900
first part of definitely does
that set in a Deathly Hallow,

970
00:58:18,900 --> 00:58:20,500
the first Deathly Hallows,
right?

971
00:58:21,000 --> 00:58:24,200
Does it hit different because of
how they like cut it off right

972
00:58:24,200 --> 00:58:26,300
there?
Does it hit does it hit harder

973
00:58:26,300 --> 00:58:29,700
than just like Reading it, then
knowing you have another chapter

974
00:58:29,700 --> 00:58:33,300
to get to and keep reading it or
did it like this because of the

975
00:58:33,300 --> 00:58:36,600
finality of it being the last
scene of the first part of

976
00:58:36,607 --> 00:58:39,300
Deathly Hallows.
It's a visible.

977
00:58:40,000 --> 00:58:43,500
I think it's just the visual
because like I said, reading it

978
00:58:43,500 --> 00:58:49,600
in the book.
It was emotional enough because

979
00:58:49,600 --> 00:58:52,900
you're thinking this is David
David can't die, you know what

980
00:58:52,900 --> 00:58:56,100
I'm saying?
Just like, no, David can't die,

981
00:58:57,000 --> 00:59:01,900
you're not supposed to die and
then thinking about the way it,

982
00:59:02,300 --> 00:59:07,000
it, it hit on screen.
First of all, Harry Potter.

983
00:59:07,000 --> 00:59:09,100
Told you not to come save him
anymore.

984
00:59:09,100 --> 00:59:11,100
He told you not to try to save
his life.

985
00:59:11,100 --> 00:59:13,400
He told you his way back in
Chamber of Secrets.

986
00:59:14,400 --> 00:59:17,700
But daddy still did it anyway
the way.

987
00:59:17,700 --> 00:59:21,100
And then also visually the way
that it happened, you know, the

988
00:59:21,100 --> 00:59:25,700
way that they kind of show them
a berating and the slow motion

989
00:59:25,700 --> 00:59:31,400
with the knife going through and
it just you know the way that

990
00:59:31,400 --> 00:59:37,800
they play like you can kind of
sort of see who's I don't even

991
00:59:37,800 --> 00:59:40,200
know what to call it when they
operating but you can kind of

992
00:59:40,200 --> 00:59:44,300
see who's there and who's not
and for that knife to hit at

993
00:59:44,300 --> 00:59:48,800
precisely that moment and it
just kind of disappears and it

994
00:59:48,800 --> 00:59:51,600
was just like you knew what was
coming?

995
00:59:53,400 --> 00:59:57,400
But the way they played it out,
was so much harder because you

996
00:59:57,400 --> 01:00:00,900
you, you arrive on the beach.
You've got her mind and who's

997
01:00:00,900 --> 01:00:03,100
just been torture?
You got Ron, trying to come for

998
01:00:03,100 --> 01:00:05,300
her.
Harry goes over to them, and

999
01:00:05,300 --> 01:00:07,900
he's confident them.
And then they look and they're

1000
01:00:07,900 --> 01:00:13,100
like, yo look at Diamond when
you hear that Bobby speaking

1001
01:00:13,100 --> 01:00:16,400
that little voice it was just
kind of like I can't watch this.

1002
01:00:16,400 --> 01:00:20,000
It's almost like watching a
child by because Dhabi had that

1003
01:00:20,000 --> 01:00:24,300
innocence.
He had that he had Immaturity a

1004
01:00:24,300 --> 01:00:27,500
little bit and he was just so
joyful.

1005
01:00:27,500 --> 01:00:31,600
And just all he wanted to do is
help Harry Potter Harry Potter,

1006
01:00:31,600 --> 01:00:33,800
shrink Spirit.
Yeah.

1007
01:00:34,800 --> 01:00:38,000
It and it was very childlike so
watching David.

1008
01:00:38,000 --> 01:00:40,400
I was like watching a child is
kind.

1009
01:00:40,400 --> 01:00:45,300
It just hits you a lot different
and you know, like I said

1010
01:00:45,300 --> 01:00:48,500
reading those things.
Yeah, you can, you can feel it.

1011
01:00:48,500 --> 01:00:54,200
But when you actually see it, it
was just It was just it was bad.

1012
01:00:54,200 --> 01:00:57,600
And then when Luna came over and
closed his eyes, I was done, I

1013
01:00:57,600 --> 01:01:00,300
was done.
I was like nope, I can't do

1014
01:01:00,300 --> 01:01:03,000
this.
It was just it's too much, it's

1015
01:01:03,000 --> 01:01:10,000
too much so.
But um, and I think to, for me,

1016
01:01:10,400 --> 01:01:14,300
it hit hard as well because of
the there were certain things

1017
01:01:14,300 --> 01:01:18,700
that they changed in that mouth
for a manner seen that.

1018
01:01:20,800 --> 01:01:24,200
They changed it to the point
where I felt like it took some

1019
01:01:24,200 --> 01:01:28,000
of the urgency out of the scene
especially in terms of Ron and

1020
01:01:28,000 --> 01:01:35,700
Hermione because in the books
when Hermione is being tortured,

1021
01:01:35,900 --> 01:01:39,600
Ron is not sitting in that
dungeon just being like, yo, we

1022
01:01:39,600 --> 01:01:43,100
got to help her Ron is screaming
his head off.

1023
01:01:43,100 --> 01:01:46,800
He is banging the doors.
He is trying to get to Hermione

1024
01:01:47,100 --> 01:01:51,500
and in the book like if you ever
doubt it, It how Ron felt about

1025
01:01:51,500 --> 01:01:55,500
Hermione, you knew in that
moment where her mind was being

1026
01:01:55,500 --> 01:02:00,300
tortured, that beyond anything
else, Ron loved her because Ron

1027
01:02:00,300 --> 01:02:02,700
was ready to commit murder,
trying to get out of that

1028
01:02:02,700 --> 01:02:06,700
dungeon to get to her and I felt
like they didn't really portray

1029
01:02:06,700 --> 01:02:12,900
that properly in the film.
So given that that scene took

1030
01:02:12,900 --> 01:02:15,000
place right before Dhabi
arrived.

1031
01:02:15,500 --> 01:02:18,300
I wasn't expecting the da, be
seen to be done.

1032
01:02:19,700 --> 01:02:23,700
That perfectly, you know, it's
kind of like oh you kind of

1033
01:02:23,700 --> 01:02:25,600
lacked here.
So you're probably not going to

1034
01:02:25,607 --> 01:02:29,200
do this right now.
Uh they were like, oh yeah, you

1035
01:02:29,200 --> 01:02:32,000
didn't feel the emotion in this
saying okay bam, we going to

1036
01:02:32,008 --> 01:02:34,700
give it to you all in this one
thing in this little three

1037
01:02:34,700 --> 01:02:41,900
minute scene.
So yeah, it's it hit different,

1038
01:02:42,200 --> 01:02:48,300
hit a lot different.
But let's see.

1039
01:02:48,300 --> 01:02:54,300
What else about this reunions?
Oh, I will never get tired of

1040
01:02:54,300 --> 01:02:57,600
seeing Daniel screen test and
that screen test of the three of

1041
01:02:57,600 --> 01:03:01,300
them.
Is so freaking cute.

1042
01:03:02,700 --> 01:03:05,300
It's like, you know, you get to
see screen test.

1043
01:03:05,300 --> 01:03:08,300
Every once in a while people
release stuff, they look so cute

1044
01:03:08,300 --> 01:03:12,200
and they were so little and it
was just like, oh, look at the

1045
01:03:12,200 --> 01:03:16,400
babies.
He was so cute, but it's like in

1046
01:03:16,400 --> 01:03:20,200
that one screen test, where you
have the trio, you are not

1047
01:03:20,200 --> 01:03:22,100
watching.
Daniel.

1048
01:03:22,200 --> 01:03:25,400
Emma and Rupert audition you are
watching.

1049
01:03:25,400 --> 01:03:29,700
Harry Ron and Hermione.
In that in that little screen

1050
01:03:29,700 --> 01:03:32,900
test, like, they were so cute
and they had their part, they

1051
01:03:32,900 --> 01:03:37,200
have their parts down pat.
Like, if they would have cast,

1052
01:03:37,200 --> 01:03:39,600
anybody else I would have been
like what are y'all doing?

1053
01:03:40,200 --> 01:03:41,800
Even though?
You know, we know that there

1054
01:03:41,800 --> 01:03:45,800
were other people up for the
role but yeah, they that's one

1055
01:03:45,800 --> 01:03:50,500
thing I will say.
As far as the film's they did

1056
01:03:50,500 --> 01:03:55,600
get a lot of the casting, right?
I can't think of I can't really

1057
01:03:55,600 --> 01:03:59,900
think of anybody right now that
I would say, okay, yeah, I could

1058
01:03:59,900 --> 01:04:02,300
have done a little bit better
casting, I would say, maybe for

1059
01:04:02,300 --> 01:04:06,500
James and Lily Potter.
The times we've seen them as

1060
01:04:06,500 --> 01:04:08,500
adults.
I think they probably could have

1061
01:04:08,500 --> 01:04:11,900
cast people that looked a little
younger, or made them look a

1062
01:04:11,900 --> 01:04:13,800
little bit different.
But we also have to remember

1063
01:04:13,800 --> 01:04:19,600
this was like late 70s, early
80s, so they look a little

1064
01:04:19,600 --> 01:04:21,500
different.
Well, you know, we always try to

1065
01:04:21,500 --> 01:04:24,000
say that people in The Wizarding
World AIDS.

1066
01:04:24,100 --> 01:04:28,300
A little bit faster.
They live longer in age faster

1067
01:04:28,800 --> 01:04:31,000
that's because they don't have
to deal with the election

1068
01:04:31,300 --> 01:04:35,800
electricity or whatever.
I don't know, I think I remember

1069
01:04:36,300 --> 01:04:41,100
is not my theory.
But yeah, they age age faster

1070
01:04:41,100 --> 01:04:45,100
but live longer with the thing,
right?

1071
01:04:45,100 --> 01:04:50,000
But yeah, I think explain why
the whole door had such a

1072
01:04:50,008 --> 01:04:52,900
turnaround for a Fantastic
Beasts.

1073
01:04:54,300 --> 01:04:59,800
You know, you know that do with
Grindelwald is some additional

1074
01:04:59,800 --> 01:05:04,000
things to him will see that I
think will the will see some of

1075
01:05:04,000 --> 01:05:08,900
that in Fantastic Beasts 3.
But yeah, I think you know, when

1076
01:05:08,900 --> 01:05:12,000
you think about all the things
Dumbledore went through, you

1077
01:05:12,000 --> 01:05:17,600
know he has this maybe or maybe
not unrequited, love for Grenda

1078
01:05:17,600 --> 01:05:20,100
wall.
Grenda wall is basically trying

1079
01:05:20,100 --> 01:05:26,100
to try to recruit him to Help
quote-unquote change the world,

1080
01:05:26,400 --> 01:05:31,200
you know, they get into this
duel, they get into this fight.

1081
01:05:31,400 --> 01:05:34,300
I think during the midst of all
this stuff Dumbledore

1082
01:05:34,300 --> 01:05:38,300
accidentally or, you know, they
ain't never seen through the

1083
01:05:38,300 --> 01:05:41,200
spell right kills, right?
Yeah.

1084
01:05:41,200 --> 01:05:43,700
Yes.
But, but his sister dies in the

1085
01:05:43,700 --> 01:05:48,300
midst of all this, you know, and
then you have to chase this dude

1086
01:05:48,300 --> 01:05:53,300
down and then your your
Headmaster and you have the

1087
01:05:53,400 --> 01:05:55,800
Coming of evil as one of your
students.

1088
01:05:55,800 --> 01:05:57,200
Yeah.
Don't don't went through a life.

1089
01:05:57,200 --> 01:06:05,100
He should have aged a little
based But that'll be interesting

1090
01:06:05,100 --> 01:06:07,700
to see how they do that in a
Fantastic Beasts.

1091
01:06:08,100 --> 01:06:10,100
Is it, is there a reason they
give a reason?

1092
01:06:10,100 --> 01:06:13,500
Why is it Michael Gambon?
Why he didn't show?

1093
01:06:15,300 --> 01:06:21,200
No, they didn't.
But I'm I'm going to be honest.

1094
01:06:22,200 --> 01:06:25,100
Michael Gambon.
Michael Gambon was one of those

1095
01:06:25,100 --> 01:06:34,800
people who I feel like, really
It was a really enamored with

1096
01:06:34,800 --> 01:06:37,800
being in the Harry Potter
series, you know, maybe that

1097
01:06:37,800 --> 01:06:41,700
changed over the years, but I
know when he first got into it,

1098
01:06:42,700 --> 01:06:45,200
he was one of those people went,
when he talked about, it was

1099
01:06:45,200 --> 01:06:48,900
kind of like, oh, this is just
another job, you know, they

1100
01:06:48,900 --> 01:06:52,100
really didn't really care too
much for, like, the fan side of

1101
01:06:52,100 --> 01:06:56,800
it and all this other stuff.
And then also age might have

1102
01:06:56,800 --> 01:07:00,800
been a factor, you know, we do.
You have to thank, you know,

1103
01:07:00,800 --> 01:07:04,300
thinking about the whole thing.
I said at the beginning with

1104
01:07:04,300 --> 01:07:07,100
some of them you know it looking
like some of them film

1105
01:07:07,100 --> 01:07:12,000
differently you know we are
still in the pandemic.

1106
01:07:12,000 --> 01:07:17,200
We do have this new Omicron
variant that's kind of bringing

1107
01:07:17,200 --> 01:07:19,700
the covid-19 as backup.
So maybe they just kept like a

1108
01:07:19,707 --> 01:07:22,200
lot because if you think about
it he wasn't there.

1109
01:07:22,400 --> 01:07:28,100
Maggie Smith, wasn't there.
Who else?

1110
01:07:31,000 --> 01:07:32,700
Why did her name?
Just escaped me?

1111
01:07:33,000 --> 01:07:35,400
Here's Brandon, wouldn't there?
This is Weasley.

1112
01:07:36,100 --> 01:07:37,500
Lord.
Why did her name?

1113
01:07:37,500 --> 01:07:42,100
Just ask 800 only come out but I
know she's recovering from

1114
01:07:42,100 --> 01:07:46,300
cancer cancer.
Yeah, so, and I, yeah, so so it

1115
01:07:46,300 --> 01:07:49,400
could have been that.
The people who may have been

1116
01:07:49,700 --> 01:07:54,400
more at risk, they probably were
like, okay, no.

1117
01:07:54,400 --> 01:07:57,200
And then they probably also
decided, no, I'm not going to

1118
01:07:57,200 --> 01:07:59,300
make this trip.
I'm not going to do this because

1119
01:07:59,300 --> 01:08:01,400
of that.
You know, it could have been a

1120
01:08:01,408 --> 01:08:04,200
lot of different things.
I mean, we're living in very

1121
01:08:04,200 --> 01:08:07,600
strange times, you know?
And just me thinking about the

1122
01:08:07,607 --> 01:08:10,800
whole, Daniel, Emma and Rupert
thing where they were kind of,

1123
01:08:10,800 --> 01:08:15,500
like I said, they seem like kind
of separated from themselves or,

1124
01:08:15,500 --> 01:08:19,100
you know, from each other.
I mean, like I said, we got

1125
01:08:19,100 --> 01:08:20,899
think about Rupert has a baby at
home now.

1126
01:08:21,100 --> 01:08:24,200
So, maybe he didn't want to be
around a whole bunch of people,

1127
01:08:24,300 --> 01:08:27,700
you know, just in case.
So it could have been a lot of

1128
01:08:27,707 --> 01:08:29,800
things.
But again, there were certain

1129
01:08:29,800 --> 01:08:32,899
things that That just kind of
threw me like we got, we got a

1130
01:08:32,907 --> 01:08:38,200
little bit of, you know, we got
a one-on-one discussion between

1131
01:08:38,200 --> 01:08:41,500
Emma and Rupert, which was
really sweet, but we didn't get

1132
01:08:41,600 --> 01:08:44,899
Rupert and Dan.
And that was just kind of weird

1133
01:08:44,899 --> 01:08:48,200
to me again.
So I don't know.

1134
01:08:48,300 --> 01:08:52,600
It's just like I said, I felt
very nostalgic but there were

1135
01:08:52,600 --> 01:08:55,899
some things that I wish we could
have seen a little bit more of

1136
01:08:57,200 --> 01:09:00,200
in terms of the interaction
with, with people.

1137
01:09:00,399 --> 01:09:04,000
But you know, I didn't hate it.
I loved it.

1138
01:09:04,000 --> 01:09:07,399
I really loved it.
It has made me.

1139
01:09:07,500 --> 01:09:09,000
Do you remember?
I'm not going back to read the

1140
01:09:09,000 --> 01:09:12,899
books.
We didn't do that for me but but

1141
01:09:12,899 --> 01:09:14,700
really one, watch the movies
again.

1142
01:09:15,800 --> 01:09:16,500
Yeah.
That too.

1143
01:09:16,500 --> 01:09:20,300
But his pain, the thing is, I've
already read the books twice.

1144
01:09:21,000 --> 01:09:27,000
Mmm, and S is no, well, whatever
you have with Prince, maybe

1145
01:09:27,000 --> 01:09:31,800
three or four times but average.
Maybe twice.

1146
01:09:31,800 --> 01:09:36,000
Freeze one.
Okay, I think I've ripped I've

1147
01:09:36,000 --> 01:09:43,700
read through I've read through
the entire seven book series.

1148
01:09:45,399 --> 01:09:50,399
Maybe four or five times and I
know like the earlier books,

1149
01:09:50,399 --> 01:09:54,000
I've read more because like I
said, when I first got into the

1150
01:09:54,000 --> 01:09:58,400
books it was right before
Half-Blood Prince came out.

1151
01:09:58,900 --> 01:10:02,900
So I read all the books that
that first weekend and then I

1152
01:10:02,900 --> 01:10:06,500
read them again, right before
Half-Blood Prince came out.

1153
01:10:06,500 --> 01:10:09,700
And then I went through the
series again right before

1154
01:10:10,100 --> 01:10:13,400
Deathly Hallows came out and
then I went through the series a

1155
01:10:13,400 --> 01:10:16,500
few more times and but it In
like a good.

1156
01:10:17,600 --> 01:10:20,000
It's probably been a good 10
years since I picked up the

1157
01:10:20,000 --> 01:10:27,400
books and everything.
Is it reminded me of the magic

1158
01:10:27,500 --> 01:10:30,000
of the series like looks in the
movies.

1159
01:10:30,500 --> 01:10:36,500
Yeah, my daughter is 13.
And I think, even last review

1160
01:10:36,500 --> 01:10:39,100
before she started reading
books, okay?

1161
01:10:39,200 --> 01:10:42,800
And she watches the movies.
Like we get up in the morning

1162
01:10:42,800 --> 01:10:44,900
and she's waiting to go to
school.

1163
01:10:45,100 --> 01:10:47,200
She's down here watching one of
them.

1164
01:10:47,900 --> 01:10:52,300
Okay, she won't say it out loud
but I know she really likes it.

1165
01:10:52,300 --> 01:10:54,400
Like she likes being a
Hufflepuff.

1166
01:10:54,800 --> 01:10:57,000
She thought about maybe becoming
reason class.

1167
01:10:57,000 --> 01:11:02,100
He's like, no, yeah, I hope
option is reading the books.

1168
01:11:02,300 --> 01:11:08,400
She was reading the books and
she watches the movies, like all

1169
01:11:08,400 --> 01:11:10,400
the time.
The kids are watching movies.

1170
01:11:10,400 --> 01:11:13,500
You go into her room and the
movies playing one of them.

1171
01:11:14,100 --> 01:11:16,800
So, yeah.
I used to do that a lot but it's

1172
01:11:16,800 --> 01:11:19,300
been, it's been a since I've
actually watched the movies and

1173
01:11:19,300 --> 01:11:24,400
I think part of that is like, In
the same way, that the, the

1174
01:11:24,400 --> 01:11:29,200
movies remind me of Good Times,
They also make me sad sometimes

1175
01:11:29,200 --> 01:11:31,900
because like, my little Core
group, that we used to always

1176
01:11:31,900 --> 01:11:34,500
watch the movies together, like
we're all spread across the

1177
01:11:34,500 --> 01:11:38,000
country now, so we don't get to
what like it used to be nothing

1178
01:11:38,000 --> 01:11:41,300
to say yo let's do a pot of
marathon and everybody show up

1179
01:11:41,300 --> 01:11:45,500
at my house and we will have our
like junk food, and our popcorn

1180
01:11:45,500 --> 01:11:47,500
and our drinks and sit there and
watch it.

1181
01:11:47,500 --> 01:11:50,600
And now it's like two of us are
here in Georgia, but we're like

1182
01:11:50,600 --> 01:11:54,700
on opposite sides of the Area
one is in North Carolina.

1183
01:11:55,100 --> 01:11:59,800
One is in Rhode Island.
One of we don't even speak to

1184
01:11:59,800 --> 01:12:05,200
any more house repaired.
Yes it's you.

1185
01:12:05,200 --> 01:12:08,800
She was asking questions.
Yeah.

1186
01:12:09,000 --> 01:12:12,000
So it's just one of those things
where I haven't washed.

1187
01:12:12,000 --> 01:12:14,000
I haven't sat down and really
washed it and years.

1188
01:12:14,000 --> 01:12:17,300
Like if it comes on, I might
watch it in the background every

1189
01:12:17,300 --> 01:12:18,900
once in a while.
But I haven't like, done a

1190
01:12:18,900 --> 01:12:21,000
marathon in years because of
that.

1191
01:12:21,000 --> 01:12:24,700
Because I'm like my my Marathon
buddies aren't here, so it's

1192
01:12:24,700 --> 01:12:27,600
kind of sad in that sense.
But I think I'm going to, I

1193
01:12:27,600 --> 01:12:31,900
think I'm gonna go ahead and my
best friend said that she's

1194
01:12:31,900 --> 01:12:33,300
going to start rereading the
book.

1195
01:12:33,300 --> 01:12:34,900
So I think I'm going to do that
too.

1196
01:12:34,900 --> 01:12:37,800
And then I probably watched sit
down and watch the movies, but

1197
01:12:38,000 --> 01:12:40,200
it's also one of those things.
I know if I start watching the

1198
01:12:40,200 --> 01:12:43,300
movies, I'm just going to get
sucked in and then I'm going to

1199
01:12:43,308 --> 01:12:46,200
be doing Harry Potter.
Nothing else, but Harry Potter

1200
01:12:46,200 --> 01:12:50,000
for like weeks on end and we
have other stuff that we have to

1201
01:12:50,008 --> 01:12:54,000
talk about never this good.
We got other books to read.

1202
01:12:54,600 --> 01:13:00,200
We gotta understand Tariq and I
know I know but I think in the

1203
01:13:00,200 --> 01:13:04,800
same way to like you know we've
talked about it when discussing

1204
01:13:04,800 --> 01:13:08,400
other shows that are page to
screen versions.

1205
01:13:09,200 --> 01:13:13,200
It's been years since I've been
able to like really sit down and

1206
01:13:13,200 --> 01:13:17,100
start a book series and keep it
going because I get so

1207
01:13:17,100 --> 01:13:20,900
distracted or, you know, my
concentration is just not what

1208
01:13:20,900 --> 01:13:24,300
it was when it comes to reading.
Maybe if I go back and start the

1209
01:13:24,300 --> 01:13:27,800
Harry Potter series again, it'll
reignite my love for reading

1210
01:13:27,800 --> 01:13:29,900
just like it did all those years
ago.

1211
01:13:29,900 --> 01:13:31,500
You know.
The kind of give me that nuts to

1212
01:13:31,500 --> 01:13:33,600
say.
Okay you know what, there are

1213
01:13:33,600 --> 01:13:38,800
other book series that are great
because like literally you know

1214
01:13:38,800 --> 01:13:42,000
I had always been a reader but
it was just kind of one of

1215
01:13:42,008 --> 01:13:43,800
those.
I'll read here, I read their I

1216
01:13:43,800 --> 01:13:49,000
never read a series and gotten
into a series the way that I did

1217
01:13:49,000 --> 01:13:53,800
Harry Potter except for maybe in
Elementary middle school

1218
01:13:53,800 --> 01:13:56,500
starting with like Sweet Valley,
you know.

1219
01:13:56,800 --> 01:14:00,500
So I got into the Harry Potter
series and then of course, after

1220
01:14:00,500 --> 01:14:04,100
that, what comes after Harry
Potter, Twilight at that time,

1221
01:14:04,100 --> 01:14:08,100
and then the Hunger Games and
then the Divergent series, and I

1222
01:14:08,100 --> 01:14:12,600
think for me, the beautiful
creature series, The Mortal

1223
01:14:12,600 --> 01:14:14,800
Instruments.
Oh, Harry Potter.

1224
01:14:14,800 --> 01:14:19,100
Really started kind of getting
me back into why a and going

1225
01:14:19,100 --> 01:14:21,100
through these series.
And it's like now I'm just kind

1226
01:14:21,100 --> 01:14:25,700
of like I don't know, there's
just hasn't really been anything

1227
01:14:25,700 --> 01:14:27,800
that just kind of sucked me in
that way.

1228
01:14:28,100 --> 01:14:32,600
Shadow and bone came close, but
it's nothing like it was with

1229
01:14:32,600 --> 01:14:35,700
those other Series.
So I don't know, I'm still

1230
01:14:35,700 --> 01:14:38,000
waiting to see.
So maybe I read a little bit of

1231
01:14:38,000 --> 01:14:42,200
Harry Potter and that'll kind of
jumpstart me back so you can do

1232
01:14:42,200 --> 01:14:44,800
it with me.
Anthony, I know we've got no

1233
01:14:44,800 --> 01:14:46,400
Shadow.
What I know you've got Shadow

1234
01:14:46,400 --> 01:14:50,100
and Bone Rita, we've got a
discovery of witches and and who

1235
01:14:50,100 --> 01:14:57,200
knows what But with the
Outlander and Outlander.

1236
01:14:57,200 --> 01:15:01,100
Yes it but, you know, Mike has
to read the book so maybe we can

1237
01:15:01,100 --> 01:15:04,700
read along with him do like a
book club.

1238
01:15:05,500 --> 01:15:07,000
Hey, that would that would be
fun.

1239
01:15:07,000 --> 01:15:10,200
Oh, it's gonna be fun actually.
Yeah, that will be fun, just

1240
01:15:10,200 --> 01:15:14,200
kind of rediscovering Potter
because I know there's a lot of

1241
01:15:14,200 --> 01:15:16,800
things you know.
Also when I started reading

1242
01:15:16,800 --> 01:15:20,100
those books it was like in my
30s, my early third.

1243
01:15:20,100 --> 01:15:22,300
Matter of fact no I started
reading Harry Potter.

1244
01:15:22,500 --> 01:15:27,500
ER, at 30, so that that's been
16 years now.

1245
01:15:27,500 --> 01:15:31,300
So, maybe going back, reading it
now.

1246
01:15:31,300 --> 01:15:37,500
Just kind of as I've gotten
wiser, you know, more, you know,

1247
01:15:37,500 --> 01:15:40,100
more educated about things in
the world, just going back and

1248
01:15:40,100 --> 01:15:41,900
reading it.
I know that they're probably

1249
01:15:41,900 --> 01:15:45,400
I've, you know, I know people
have talked about going back to

1250
01:15:45,400 --> 01:15:48,900
reread it and they notice this a
little more problematic than

1251
01:15:48,900 --> 01:15:51,900
when they first read it.
And I'm kind of preparing myself

1252
01:15:51,900 --> 01:15:57,900
for that as Well, but I think
overall the original feeling I

1253
01:15:57,900 --> 01:16:01,900
got from the series and again,
from the people that I've met

1254
01:16:01,900 --> 01:16:05,500
bonded with become family with,
I think that that will kind of

1255
01:16:05,500 --> 01:16:09,100
again, always keep HP like close
to my heart.

1256
01:16:09,600 --> 01:16:13,900
So, you know, I'm interested in
that and I like having something

1257
01:16:13,900 --> 01:16:18,600
that I can relate to my kid with
now, she's into Harry Potter.

1258
01:16:19,300 --> 01:16:22,300
I think that's cool, right?
But yeah, might we got to get

1259
01:16:22,300 --> 01:16:23,700
you.
You into these books.

1260
01:16:23,900 --> 01:16:26,900
I know I know I know but just
like you said we got we got so

1261
01:16:26,900 --> 01:16:29,000
many other books that can cure
right now.

1262
01:16:29,200 --> 01:16:33,500
I know, I know but here's the
thing so I hear I don't know how

1263
01:16:33,500 --> 01:16:37,100
true this is.
I have heard that they are

1264
01:16:37,100 --> 01:16:40,800
trying to develop a Harry Potter
TV series.

1265
01:16:41,100 --> 01:16:45,200
So it'll be look, don't don't
look like that.

1266
01:16:45,200 --> 01:16:49,700
I've actually been wanting a TV
series for a while because I

1267
01:16:49,700 --> 01:16:54,200
feel like if they follow some of
these The formulas that they do

1268
01:16:54,200 --> 01:16:56,900
with TV series.
Now if they do even an eighth

1269
01:16:56,900 --> 01:17:01,600
episode, you know, season 10
episode season, if you think

1270
01:17:01,600 --> 01:17:03,800
about and of course, my key
won't know this because you

1271
01:17:03,808 --> 01:17:06,600
haven't read them yet.
But if you think about a lot of

1272
01:17:06,600 --> 01:17:10,800
the Back stories that they
omitted from the film's because

1273
01:17:10,800 --> 01:17:13,600
there just wasn't enough time.
Yeah.

1274
01:17:13,600 --> 01:17:16,000
They could make it and they
could make it really great.

1275
01:17:16,000 --> 01:17:19,500
Now, will they get the kind of
casting that they had for the

1276
01:17:19,500 --> 01:17:21,500
film's?
I don't know if they'll ever be

1277
01:17:21,500 --> 01:17:23,700
that cast know.
Are they because those

1278
01:17:23,700 --> 01:17:29,400
characters, we like, is that the
plan, like probably so, okay.

1279
01:17:29,400 --> 01:17:32,600
Well, I would be interested in
the much better version of

1280
01:17:32,600 --> 01:17:36,600
Half-Blood, Prince.
That's what we got on screen

1281
01:17:37,400 --> 01:17:42,600
that yeah, well, that, and if
you think about it, like the

1282
01:17:42,600 --> 01:17:46,300
major things that they miss for
Prisoner of Azkaban, the whole

1283
01:17:46,300 --> 01:17:49,300
back story on the Marauders, I
know, plenty of people who want

1284
01:17:49,300 --> 01:17:52,300
to see that for, I think God
bless her.

1285
01:17:52,500 --> 01:17:56,200
Fire.
They were pretty true to the

1286
01:17:56,200 --> 01:17:59,300
book.
There wasn't not.

1287
01:17:59,400 --> 01:18:03,100
I can't think of anything like,
major major that they missed out

1288
01:18:03,100 --> 01:18:05,600
from the book.
Not that not that I can think of

1289
01:18:06,000 --> 01:18:08,400
Order of the Phoenix.
Had some problems.

1290
01:18:08,900 --> 01:18:13,800
I really hate that.
They kind of condensed, the

1291
01:18:13,800 --> 01:18:17,600
conversation between Dumbledore
and Harry after serious died.

1292
01:18:17,600 --> 01:18:21,700
Like in the office.
Like, there's a whole chapter of

1293
01:18:22,400 --> 01:18:25,900
Action that they omitted from
that film, that I think would

1294
01:18:25,907 --> 01:18:28,300
have made a lot more sense.
They took that out.

1295
01:18:28,400 --> 01:18:30,700
I would love to see that
Half-Blood Prince.

1296
01:18:30,700 --> 01:18:33,700
So problematic, you know, there
were some good things about

1297
01:18:33,700 --> 01:18:37,300
Half-Blood Prince, the humor and
Half-Blood Prince was amazing.

1298
01:18:37,500 --> 01:18:40,900
Okay.
The humor with it was amazing,

1299
01:18:41,000 --> 01:18:44,300
everyone.
We're seems like she thinks you

1300
01:18:44,300 --> 01:18:46,500
the you she thinks you're the
chosen one.

1301
01:18:46,900 --> 01:18:49,900
Yes, that.
And that's the one where Ronald

1302
01:18:49,900 --> 01:18:52,000
and lavender were in the
relationship.

1303
01:18:52,000 --> 01:18:54,400
That's the We're on.
Got poisoned.

1304
01:18:55,200 --> 01:18:57,900
He got slipped the love potion
and he was looking at the moon.

1305
01:18:57,900 --> 01:18:59,900
So all that stuff is great.
Stuff is great.

1306
01:18:59,900 --> 01:19:02,200
In the book in the movie, should
not have been called the

1307
01:19:02,200 --> 01:19:04,100
Half-Blood Prince, this would be
constant.

1308
01:19:04,600 --> 01:19:08,800
I know, because you literally
skipped the whole backstory

1309
01:19:08,900 --> 01:19:13,900
behind have a foreign plot like,
Yeah, well, yeah, Empire is

1310
01:19:13,900 --> 01:19:16,400
gone.
So yeah, there's some things

1311
01:19:16,400 --> 01:19:19,800
that I would like to see done a
little bit better and I feel

1312
01:19:19,800 --> 01:19:23,800
like a TV show would get wet.
Give them a chance to do that.

1313
01:19:23,800 --> 01:19:28,800
Like, give me seven seasons of
eight, you know, a episode

1314
01:19:28,800 --> 01:19:32,200
Seasons.
That's that's plenty enough time

1315
01:19:32,400 --> 01:19:35,500
for them to get everything in
and do it, right.

1316
01:19:36,400 --> 01:19:39,200
Like I said, I don't know what
they'll do about casting because

1317
01:19:39,800 --> 01:19:44,100
like I said, you had pretty much
damn near perfect casting for

1318
01:19:44,100 --> 01:19:48,500
those films and as far as like
like you said the creme de La

1319
01:19:48,500 --> 01:19:51,900
Creme of British acting royalty,
you will not get that in another

1320
01:19:51,900 --> 01:19:55,300
film.
Yuri's ever, ever, you know,

1321
01:19:55,300 --> 01:19:58,900
especially we have most of those
people are gone.

1322
01:19:58,900 --> 01:20:01,600
Now is, you know, a good portion
of them are gone.

1323
01:20:01,600 --> 01:20:04,200
Alan Rickman is gone.
Richard, Griffiths is gone.

1324
01:20:04,400 --> 01:20:07,700
John has no John Hurt.
Robert Hardy.

1325
01:20:07,800 --> 01:20:09,800
So there's a lot of them, that's
gone.

1326
01:20:09,800 --> 01:20:15,400
So You're not going to get that,
but we still have some talent in

1327
01:20:15,400 --> 01:20:18,100
this world, even with that older
generation.

1328
01:20:18,100 --> 01:20:21,100
So I would love to see it.
Do you think they're going to

1329
01:20:21,100 --> 01:20:25,100
make Hermione if they recast it
make a combined me closer to

1330
01:20:25,400 --> 01:20:27,600
God.
She wasn't about, probably not,

1331
01:20:28,500 --> 01:20:32,000
I don't know, they probably
could because if you think about

1332
01:20:32,000 --> 01:20:37,600
it hurt it hurt description in
the book like she could go

1333
01:20:37,600 --> 01:20:41,500
either way.
I mean, when I read her, Ima Be

1334
01:20:41,500 --> 01:20:45,200
honest, I didn't picture her as
a black girl, you know, I don't

1335
01:20:45,200 --> 01:20:48,200
necessarily read somebody with
olive skin and think a black

1336
01:20:48,200 --> 01:20:52,300
person, I always think a white
person because of, you know,

1337
01:20:52,600 --> 01:20:56,300
that's what I grew up with, as
far as descriptions of people

1338
01:20:56,300 --> 01:21:01,600
with that kind of complexion, it
will be great to see them cast

1339
01:21:01,600 --> 01:21:04,800
her as you know, a black girl or
a person of color.

1340
01:21:04,800 --> 01:21:07,500
That would be cool.
I don't know if I see it

1341
01:21:07,500 --> 01:21:12,100
happening.
But maybe I mean it's possible

1342
01:21:12,100 --> 01:21:14,300
like look what they did with the
will of time.

1343
01:21:14,500 --> 01:21:18,600
I mean they true they colored
just about every character.

1344
01:21:18,800 --> 01:21:20,300
They did.
Yeah.

1345
01:21:21,300 --> 01:21:22,800
Yeah.
That's not how they are in the

1346
01:21:22,800 --> 01:21:25,200
book.
So right right.

1347
01:21:25,200 --> 01:21:28,500
If that's a possibility, I don't
see them doing it, but this

1348
01:21:28,500 --> 01:21:30,000
possibility.
Yeah.

1349
01:21:30,800 --> 01:21:37,300
So we can hope, we can hope any
final thoughts on the reunions,

1350
01:21:37,300 --> 01:21:39,200
special or Harry Potter.
General.

1351
01:21:39,700 --> 01:21:44,200
It was fun to revisit once
again, revisit the magic of the

1352
01:21:44,200 --> 01:21:49,800
series and the cast, and to see
them as regular people and

1353
01:21:50,400 --> 01:21:56,300
seeing them growing up and go
back over those memories, which

1354
01:21:56,300 --> 01:21:58,500
brings up the memories that I
have of reading.

1355
01:21:58,500 --> 01:22:02,400
The series watching the movies,
as I thought was pretty cool.

1356
01:22:02,700 --> 01:22:04,500
Yeah.
I remember you saying, you

1357
01:22:04,500 --> 01:22:06,100
wanted to do it and talk about
it?

1358
01:22:06,108 --> 01:22:08,100
I was like, I'm not gonna watch
that.

1359
01:22:08,100 --> 01:22:09,300
Well, I'm home.
Right.

1360
01:22:09,600 --> 01:22:16,900
Right, the watch the All-Star
listening to me because when I

1361
01:22:16,907 --> 01:22:20,800
said, I said, I said somebody's
going to have to watch this and

1362
01:22:20,800 --> 01:22:23,200
and talk about it with me.
He was like, are you really

1363
01:22:23,200 --> 01:22:27,300
going to make me watch this?
I was like are you a true Harry

1364
01:22:27,300 --> 01:22:29,100
Potter fan if you don't watch
it.

1365
01:22:29,100 --> 01:22:32,600
I oh yes you are.
No!

1366
01:22:32,600 --> 01:22:37,600
Don't despair as those people.
Okay, happy nice.

1367
01:22:37,600 --> 01:22:40,600
I want I want to be one of those
snobs to be like, oh my God, you

1368
01:22:40,600 --> 01:22:45,200
know, that she Harry Potter fan,
but I really do feel like for

1369
01:22:45,200 --> 01:22:48,100
die-hard fans, like you have to
watch this series.

1370
01:22:48,100 --> 01:22:52,500
It's just even with all the
complaints that we have, had

1371
01:22:52,500 --> 01:22:58,500
over the years about the film's
those films still like one, you

1372
01:22:58,500 --> 01:23:02,000
have to separate them from the
books that you just you have to,

1373
01:23:02,000 --> 01:23:06,700
but if you think about it and
just watching and Say it does

1374
01:23:06,700 --> 01:23:10,300
have a lot to do with the movie
going experience, and how you

1375
01:23:10,300 --> 01:23:13,500
experience it with friends.
Like I remember doing screen

1376
01:23:13,700 --> 01:23:18,000
screen on the green and Atlantic
Station with my friends watching

1377
01:23:18,000 --> 01:23:21,000
it, people getting mad at us
because we're literally sitting

1378
01:23:21,000 --> 01:23:26,700
there, reciting every life is
like, we got all peoples nerves

1379
01:23:27,100 --> 01:23:29,700
doing that, but it was just so
natural because that's what we

1380
01:23:29,700 --> 01:23:32,500
would do.
We watch it at home or whatever

1381
01:23:32,800 --> 01:23:37,800
and it just became habit, you
know, seeing Order of the

1382
01:23:37,800 --> 01:23:41,300
Phoenix in a I don't know if you
remember this.

1383
01:23:41,300 --> 01:23:44,200
When did they used to call it?
Black curtain screening or

1384
01:23:44,200 --> 01:23:47,800
something and you would go see
the film like a week before it

1385
01:23:47,808 --> 01:23:52,300
came out and just remembering
watching Order of the Phoenix

1386
01:23:52,300 --> 01:23:56,900
and when Harry tells Umbridge
I'm sorry Professor but I must

1387
01:23:56,900 --> 01:23:59,200
not tell lies the whole movie
theater.

1388
01:23:59,200 --> 01:24:00,800
Jumped up shouted.
Screamed.

1389
01:24:00,800 --> 01:24:03,500
That was the first time I had
ever been in a movie theater

1390
01:24:03,500 --> 01:24:06,700
with that kind of reaction.
And it's like, Nowadays, you

1391
01:24:06,700 --> 01:24:09,100
kind of get it with all the
Marvel films and stuff but that

1392
01:24:09,100 --> 01:24:11,600
was the first time I had ever
been in a movie theater with

1393
01:24:11,600 --> 01:24:15,400
that kind of relax.
And I was like, oh I life is

1394
01:24:15,700 --> 01:24:18,100
like, I'm watching with real
fans.

1395
01:24:18,100 --> 01:24:21,300
This is what a real Fan
Experience is like like you

1396
01:24:21,300 --> 01:24:25,300
just, you know, going to
midnight movie premieres, they

1397
01:24:25,300 --> 01:24:28,300
don't do those anymore but they
did them for Harry Potter and we

1398
01:24:28,300 --> 01:24:32,900
used to go dressed up in costume
or, you know, have our, you

1399
01:24:32,900 --> 01:24:37,800
know, I house representation.
You know, I miss those times.

1400
01:24:37,800 --> 01:24:40,800
I really do and watching this
reunions kind of brought a lot

1401
01:24:40,800 --> 01:24:45,700
of that bad.
So I'm glad I would love to see

1402
01:24:45,700 --> 01:24:49,100
them.
Do a more inclusive reunions,

1403
01:24:49,100 --> 01:24:52,800
maybe I don't know, maybe
they'll do one for the first

1404
01:24:52,800 --> 01:24:56,100
film, really, or no film
releases already gone.

1405
01:24:56,100 --> 01:24:59,700
So maybe they'll do something
else where we can get a little

1406
01:24:59,700 --> 01:25:01,900
bit more because there were a
lot of people were missing from

1407
01:25:01,900 --> 01:25:05,400
this, you know, a lot of the
younger actors.

1408
01:25:05,600 --> 01:25:08,300
I said the older actors they
probably would like okay, yes

1409
01:25:08,300 --> 01:25:12,400
too risky but I would like to
see them do something like this

1410
01:25:12,400 --> 01:25:15,600
again, you know, it's kind of
like if you think about the way

1411
01:25:15,600 --> 01:25:18,300
Rupert said, Rupert said, it
doesn't really feel like we've

1412
01:25:18,300 --> 01:25:21,500
earned a reunions yet because
it's only been 20 years.

1413
01:25:21,500 --> 01:25:25,800
But at the same time it's been
20 years so I don't know.

1414
01:25:26,200 --> 01:25:28,900
I enjoyed it though.
And seem like it, I know.

1415
01:25:28,900 --> 01:25:34,900
But I mean Time Flies.
What was it room for say?

1416
01:25:34,900 --> 01:25:38,300
He was like time.
I think Emma said it feels like

1417
01:25:38,300 --> 01:25:42,100
time has flown and then no time
has gone by it.

1418
01:25:42,100 --> 01:25:46,000
All we're Rupert was like I've
had kidney stones and baby so

1419
01:25:46,000 --> 01:25:49,500
yeah, I feel it, I feel the age
so I don't know.

1420
01:25:49,800 --> 01:25:52,300
My kids were in elementary
school when I started reading

1421
01:25:52,300 --> 01:25:54,000
this series and now they're all
grown.

1422
01:25:54,000 --> 01:25:59,200
So that's a marker of time if
anything, you know but it's

1423
01:25:59,200 --> 01:26:00,500
cool.
I enjoyed it.

1424
01:26:00,500 --> 01:26:05,900
So Yeah, we're going to have to
do this again because I could

1425
01:26:05,900 --> 01:26:08,500
talk about Harry Potter all day
long like yeah.

1426
01:26:08,700 --> 01:26:11,900
So I have find some, might you
gonna have to start reading

1427
01:26:11,900 --> 01:26:13,500
these books?
Give us a reason to talk about

1428
01:26:13,500 --> 01:26:17,200
Harry Potter, I realize this.
Yeah.

1429
01:26:17,300 --> 01:26:23,600
So I guess that's our trip down
Harry Potter memory lane for

1430
01:26:23,600 --> 01:26:26,300
now.
