Notes:
(1) Harry: "Mrs. Weasley, you didn’t believe that rubbish Rita Skeeter wrote in Witch Weekly, did you? Because Hermione’s not my girlfriend."
Molly: "Oh! ... No � of course I didn’t!"
Narrator: "But she became considerably warmer toward Hermione after that."
(2) In North America we say "uh" not "er." The sphinx's password's "spiduh" to us.

Notes:
(1) For someone who doesn't think much of muggles, Fudge sure loves to wear their clothes.
(2) "Sirius Black!" [Mrs. Weasley] shrieked, pointing at him.
"Mum, shut up!" Ron yelled. "It’s okay!"'
- Often a good "shut up" is the quickest remedy for hysteria.
(3) Dumbledore forces Sirius and Snape to shake hands. Ever the teacher, ever the students.

Notes:
(1) Fawkes uses his tears to speed up Harry's wounds healing. That's handy... sort of like wizard Polysporin.
(2) Now that Fleur likes Ron and pays him attention, I guess she's not hot no more. Not surprising. (see gif)
- Alternatively, once kissed, perhaps her veela powers wore off.
- Alternatively, perhaps Ron's shifted his attention elsewhere.

Notes:
(1) Harry's first clue should have been that Crouch always called Voldemort "The Dark Lord." All upright wizards use "He-Who-Must-Not-Be-Named." The boldest just say Voldemort.
(2) Wonder if all the lip licking meant David Tennant needed ChapStick on standby?
(3) Karkaroff fled? Who's going to sail the ship back to Durmstrang? Magic, most likely.

Notes:
(1) Not the most impressive group of Death Eaters here. A bunch of no-names, Buckbeak's would-be executioner and some Slytherin dads.
(2) Wormtail speaks rat. Apparently being animagus gives you the ability to speak to animals. I guess McGonagall speaks cat.
(3) Voldemort gives a traditional villain tell-all monologue. A tad cliché if you ask me.

Notes:
(1) '"Stop being noble," said Harry irritably. "Just take it, then we can get out of here."'
- Yeah, Cedric, stop being noble! Wait... no! Be noble! Take a dive!
(2) First student death, and the series is never the same again.
(3) Baby Voldemort is no Baby Yoda.
(4) Color-changing tattoos would be a goldmine!
(5) "Lord Voldemort had risen again."

Notes:
(1) Continuity error. This is set in 1994, the Macarena (see gif) wasn't a thing until 1996.
- The male cheerleader on the right's creeping me out.
(2) "Fleur ... was eyeing Bill with great interest over her mother’s shoulder. Harry could tell she had no objection whatsoever to long hair or earrings with fangs on them."
- Fleur loves ze bad boys.

Glitchreads:
(1) Somehow, my recent review for "Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban" switched editions. Normally I'd switch it back, but it's the second review I've written for the book, and ŷ only lets you switch the edition of either your earlier or more popular review. So now my book covers no longer match! and my OCD is driving me nuts!

Notes:
(1) Krum's oddly puritan about Hermione possibly being with other guys. Who knew?
(2) Hagrid: “The less you lot ’ave ter do with these foreigners, the happier yeh’ll be. Yeh can� trust any of ’em.�
Harry: “You were getting on all right with Madame Maxime.�
Hagrid: “Don� you talk ter me abou� her! ... You can� trust any of ’em!�
- Xenophobic much?

Notes:
(1) 'Both Harry’s and Ron’s [Easter eggs] were the size of dragon eggs and full of homemade toffee. Hermione’s, however, was smaller than a chicken egg. Her face fell when she saw it.
"Your mum doesn’t read 'Witch Weekly,' by any chance, does she, Ron?" she asked quietly.
"Yeah ... Gets it for the recipes."
Hermione looked sadly at her tiny egg.'

Notes:
(1) Ron: "I told you not to annoy Rita Skeeter! She’s made you out to be some sort of � of scarlet woman!"
Hermione: "Scarlet woman?"
Ron: "It’s what my mum calls them."
- "Scarlet Woman" is one of my favorite euphemisms.
(2) I'm not gonna lie, I thoroughly enjoy drunk Winky.
(3) Gosh, house elves get downright mean when you insist they unionize.

Me too! I saw Cursed Child on Broadway and was so mad because Hermione wore a shiny, purple dress. She would've never worn that. Great actor though. Just Hermione was a bit different. But, the magic of her stays the same.

Just Hermione was a bit different. But, the magi..."Sorry to hear it made you mad. We all have our own interpretations and visions of characters in our heads as we read the books. Rarely do other people's versions match our own exactly. Actors in particular like to put their own twists on things. Glad to know the acting and magic sat well with you :)
No. I loved the play. Just sometimes Hermione was pretty different. Great special effects. The person who played Ginny did great!

That's a regional accent thing. And I say that from the land of pahked cahs.
K wrote: "That's a regional accent thing. And I say that from the land of pahked cahs."That a New England accent? That's my best guess.
I think it's more a difference of vernacular than anything. Though they mean the same thing, like "um," "uh" and "er" are different words, and one is not a regional pronunciation of the other... well, except Australians and New Zealanders, who do pronounce "er" as "uh." But, as I say, in North America we use a different term. I guess it could be "spidum" as well, come to think of it.
😂these updates are pretty funny, we love Mrs. Weasley
