1.  “Did you put your name in the goblet of fire?”

Need I say more?

2.  Movie Ginny not having a backbone

I mean really?  She TIED HIS SHOE!  What happened to badass Ginny from the books?

3.  The absence of Peeves, Winky, Teddy, and SPEW in the movies

How could they cut so much from the movies?

4.  How Voldemort died in the movies

Image via:  Giphy

He was supposed to die as a normal man, but instead he explodes into dust.  How did they think this was okay? 

5.  Harry and Hermione using magic outside of school

Everyone knows they can’t use magic outside of Hogwarts!

6.  Ron not being supportive in the movies.

In the books, he is a major, supportive character, but in the movies, all he does is eat.  

7.  Harry and Voldemort pretending to be Jack and Rose

Like, Harry you are the Boy Who Lived.  Jumping off buildings in an embrace with your worst enemy isn’t going to keep you alive.  

8.  Neville’s parents missing

Image via:  Giphy

We never got his backstory, so we never got a chance to really understand him.  

9.  Harry not fixing his wand

Image via:  Giphy

How was he going to do magic without fixing his wand first??

10.  The Burrow burning down

Image via:  Giphy

The Burrow was never meant to burn down!  And then the Weasleys lose everything, so how can they afford a new house and to replace everything to look exactly the same?  How?

My name is Erica Boucher and I am part of Gettysburg College Class of 2019. I'm a huge fan of Harry Potter (and am a total Ravenclaw). I'm the Profile Editor here at HerCampus Gettysburg along with a writer. I love the color blue, singing/dancing to music in my dorm room, and wearing funky socks.
