Yep. That's why the books are always better because everything's there and it's all detailed. In the movies a lot of parts are cut off to make it all fit into the 2 hours required.

Exactly.. That's why I love the books..

Alright moving on to the next "mistake".

Book fans were quick to point this out actually. They changed a lot of Ron in the movies. They made him the "comedic" best friend and perennial "sidekick" when he was so much more than that in the books.

I remember that I read one post that was long that they mention about Ron in the movie and the book when they change lot when it comes to him.. And I started to noticed that when I reread from book 1-4..

For sure the books are always superior to the movies and I understand that they needed to change some lines from the book because they have a time limit for the movies but that's the problem of the script writer. It's noticeable if you've read the books but not-so if you're only a casual HP fan and haven only seen the movies.

Yeah, true that.. Plus I wonder if they ever talk to the author about it or would be okay to change it??

I think the producers and script writers work very closely with JKR and she approves the script that they do even though movie-wise JKR never had a role so she's kind of like the 'consultant' so to speak (like GRRM on GoT).

Ahh, thanks.. I didn't know that..

So the script writers and producers still have a lot of say for the movies. It was only in FBAWTFT where JKR was more hands-on with the story.

Even tho I wish that some can be similar from the book exactly..

L i N d $ @ y 06-16-2021 09:52 PM

The advantage of FBAWTFT is that there is no book based on the movies so JKR is free to add stories to her already established HP universe.

I know right..

L i N d $ @ y 06-17-2021 08:43 PM

And that's why now we're questioning if what she adds is canon or just OMG moments. :look:

fly me to the moon 06-18-2021 06:11 AM

Which that made sense bec some of scenes would be OMG moments.. But still..

L i N d $ @ y 06-18-2021 10:34 PM

I can understand if they change some of the dialogue from the book to the movie but I guess changing it completely doesn't make sense to me. Why not just follow the actual dialogue from the book? :confused:
