Snape is awful to non-Slytherin Hogwarts students

Professor Snape end up becoming a glorified hero in theHarry Pottermovies , and part of the reason was the fact that his bad behavior was left out of the film .

Neville came really skinny to becoming the prefer One .

While Neville was a great lineament in theHarry Pottermovies , he was also largely underutilized . Even the fact that Neville came really close to becoming the Chosen One was n’t cover in the films , and it was a fundamental art object of information for sympathize the straight frightening nature of Harry ’s news report . This book detail should n’t be lack from the show . Another scene that the TV reboot has to include is the one where the Golden Trio and Ginny trip upon Neville and his grannie at St. Mungo ’s Hospital for Magical Maladies and Injuriesand discover what happened to Neville ’s parent .

The films rushed past sprightliness at Hogwarts during Harry ’s seventh year , but the reboot should n’t throw away such a vital plot line .

The Golden Trio’s attendance is a testament to their character

One of the most bizarre view in thenovels was closely Headless Nick ’s 500th deathday party , and it was a shame that thisHalloween storyline got turn out from theHarry Pottermovies . Harry , Ron , and Hermione had a selection to make : they could either attend Hogwarts ' Allhallows Eve feast where they would enjoy luscious food or honor their House ’s spook by go to his deathday party with nothing for them to rust . The fact that the Golden Trio chose to do decently by their hope to a friend spoke louder than words , and this scene has to be in the show .

3Professor McGonagall’s Sassy Comments

McGonagall has the best one-liners

Maggie Smith ’s Professor McGonagall was closemouthed to perfection in the way she stock herself , but it is a pity that most of her hysterical one - liner got cut from theHarry Pottermovies . The TV show had better not make the same fault and have at least some of her Quran quotes , such as"Have a biscuit , Potter,“which she say after Harry get in trouble with Umbridge . Additionally , if the series include the fit whereMcGonagall throw advice to Peeves regarding the direction that should be used to unscrew the chandelier , it would automatically become the ranking adaptation .

2The Quidditch World Cup In All Its Glory

The Quidditch World Cup scene explores wizards' culture

Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fireis mostly considered to be one of the weakest movies in the serial , and that is largely because of the fashion it bollix up the Quidditch World Cup . The competition was a huge clump of the corresponding novel , and so much happened during the World Cup scenes . For example , they introduced Ludo Bagman and Winky the menage - elf , each of whom had major subplots in the ledger . HBO ’s series has to make amends , bring these quality to life on - screen at last , and make the actual Quidditch World Cup as grandiose as it should be .

The Viktor subplot leads to Hermione discovering Rita’s secret

There were so many more stunning book view with him and Hermione as a budding couple .

Viktor Krum was a key character for Hermione ’s ego - discovery journeying , as he was the first boy to point out her . TheHarry Pottermovies did a fairly good job of limn Viktor , but there were so many more arresting book scenes with him and Hermione as a budding brace . Plus , a sure conversation between Viktor and Hermione resulted in Hermione ’s probe into Rita Skeeter , which is another awesome plot line that the television receiver reboot should embrace . Seeing the victorious Hermione seizure Rita in her Animagus kind in a jar would be nothing short of sensational .
