Starting point is 00:00:00 Hey, Chicks in the Office listeners. You can find every episode on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or YouTube. Prime members can listen ad free on Amazon Music. What's up, everyone? Welcome back to Chicks in Hogwarts, the Harry Potter Pod, where we recap all of the Harry Potter films. We are now on the third film, Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Ascaband. This one was very much hyped up.
Starting point is 00:00:45 Yeah. This one was really hyped up. There's a lot of hype around this one. People were saying this is the best one. This is my favorite one. This is where things change. Yeah. And let me tell you, things changed.
Starting point is 00:00:54 Things do change. There's a different director. There's a different Dumbledore. There's a totally all-around different feel to this movie compared to the first one. So I was also very excited for you guys to watch this one. Because, yeah, it definitely is up there is one of my favorites personally. So, you know, no pressure. But it is one that I find myself rewerewe.
Starting point is 00:01:19 watching more than some of the other ones. And, you know, they're starting to get a little bit older. They're looking a little more like teenagers. I saw Ron and Hermione. You have a little hand grab at one point. Do you remember what I said about Malfoy doesn't have his hair slicked back? So I did notice that and I actually didn't like his hair in this one. I didn't.
Starting point is 00:01:41 I was confused by that one. Super fair. Yeah. Well, once again, let's start off with Ria's note. notes. Just a little stream of consciousness from Ria watching Prisoner of Ascaband. And once we go through that, we can discuss. And then I have tons that I want to go through and talk about and just recap some of the best
Starting point is 00:02:06 parts of this. Sometimes I feel like it's like, I'm in class right now. And then we're going to open a Harry Potter class. When she said I have tons to talk about, I literally just said to myself, did I pay close enough attention? Yeah. Like now I'm nervous. I'm in like, I'm in like, oh, fuck.
Starting point is 00:02:20 And I was a bad student, and I think we can all know that by now. Okay. Let's start from the beginning. I can't believe we're still living with these freaks, in parentheses, Derslis. I'm scared. I didn't sign up for a horror film. I'm going to have nightmares tonight. Did Harry just get the soul sucked out of him?
Starting point is 00:02:43 Don't tell me serious black is just going to be Voldemort. Wow, good for Hagrid. He loves magical creatures. That he does. If I could fly on an animal without getting hurt, that would be sick. Also, this film has beautiful scenery. It would be a lot easier if Harry just knew his own parents, huh? Yeah. Oh, we're doing clowns now?
Starting point is 00:03:05 Fuck no. Hermione finally found some curling products. She really tamed those curls down. Yeah, yeah. She cut her hair, too. She did. It helped. I feel like I smoked before this movie, but I actually didn't. Being able to turn into an animal should be cheating.
Starting point is 00:03:21 Okay. Although this is a film where anything happens. Yeah. It's not cheating. It is magic. It just feels like cheating. Yeah, it's magic. A lot of people get framed for things they didn't do.
Starting point is 00:03:33 True. Peter Pettergru is wretched looking. He's just revolting. He's disgusting. He's absolutely repulsive. They do a great job of making him look like a human rat. Yeah, he looks repulsive. Turns out, Sirius and Lupin are pretty cool.
Starting point is 00:03:46 Yeah. Does Snape actually do anything? Good quiet, good cue, good cue. This is a song. If I could turn back time. Bum, bum, bum. Fits, right? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:04:00 And then my last note is Harry always comes out on top. Yeah. Harry always comes out on top. That's it. They are his movies. Right. No, it is called Harry Potter. Yeah, they are his movies.
Starting point is 00:04:14 Great notes. I will say, yes. Snape, one of my favorite Snape moments in this movie is the which is what I was about to say when you were like, you're acting like a teacher when he's like turned to page
Starting point is 00:04:29 394, like 9 million times. But yeah, the Dersley's, we started the beginning. The Derslays are back at it. Aunt Marge. Of course her name's March. I mean, yeah, obviously. No offense to the Marge is out there.
Starting point is 00:04:45 Wait, what is March short? for Margaret. That's my grandma's name. No, I also know a lot of Margaret's and I love them dearly. Margaret's a great name, but it gets shortened to Marge. Unfortunately, it's like, like Margaret is a beautiful name. Francesca is a beautiful name. Marge, Fran, you just get shorter nicknames that aren't as pretty as the real thing.
Starting point is 00:05:05 Francesca is a beautiful name. Yeah, thank you. My cousin's middle name is Marjorie. And when we were younger, I really made fun. I was like, Marjorie, such a grandma name. She got very upset. And I started to cry. She was like, that was my grandma's name.
Starting point is 00:05:19 It was a whole thing. And I say cousin. She's like a, she's like my second cousin. So that sounded crazy that I wouldn't know her. Different grandma. Our grandpas were twins. Anyways, you don't need the whole backstory. But I did make fun of her for her middle name being Audrey.
Starting point is 00:05:35 Aunt Marge is the worst. And the thought like the fact that he, the fact that she did just blow up and flowed away. Yeah, that was crazy. He's just like, I'm not bringing her back. Can I call her Large March? Yeah. Large March. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:05:51 She was Large March. Especially as she's floating away. I like the angst that Harry showed in that scene. He started to get angsty. He's getting real angsty. Yeah. Yeah. If you don't know anything about my parents.
Starting point is 00:06:04 Shut the fuck up, large march. Well, well, she's like, and I mean, she's coming for her. She's coming for his mom. Calls her a bitch. I know it's like the. proper term for a female dog but she's like don't you fucking talk about my parents. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:06:22 I'm still so like confused with like anything goes on the potter pot. Aunt Marge. We're like she just, I keep forgetting that everyone doesn't know about magic. You know? Like that's the thing that I'm like, oh the Dersley family knows but she doesn't know. No, Marfregard does
Starting point is 00:06:38 not know that Harry. That's why when the glass broke, she was like, oh, it's fine. And also like remember she's like, uh, Uncle Vernon. is like he's in like you know school for misbehaving boys ever get the name of the school but like he's in like correctional school and wizards they just get special treatment the night bus the night bus doesn't uh go to the normal world muggles don't know about the the night bus the night bus comes for harry because he's special also i'm just like stan shum pike's one of my faiths people are like oh dudley like
Starting point is 00:07:08 they love him and i'm like he's the most unlikable kid i've ever seen yeah he really is Stan Jump Pike is one of those guys that you like think maybe is good. Mommy. It's bad. It's like he just sucks. When I went to when I went to Harry Power World, that was one of my favorite parts. They had a big like fake night bus. I got to stand.
Starting point is 00:07:31 I took a picture with the guide who was dressed as Stan Jump Pike. When I went to Harry Potter World, I didn't ride on the night bus. I wrote on like the train to Hogwarts. Yes, yes, yes. That is also very cool. Yes. I do like that as well. Yeah, they get on, he gets picked up by the night bus.
Starting point is 00:07:48 There's the shrunken head. There's, you know, squishing in between. That's when there's like a little bit more of some comedic moments, you know? But that's also when I started thinking it was a horror film. A little scary. It was a little scared. Well, you do see, you know, there is the black dog that he's waiting for, that he sees when he's waiting for the night bus.
Starting point is 00:08:10 Who is serious? I think you were going to ask us who he is and I was like Yeah yeah And who was it Who was it? Pick me, pick me Yeah, you're serious
Starting point is 00:08:18 That's when I look down Like my contact with a teacher It starts casually typing on the laptop What that super bad scene He's like Yeah Yeah
Starting point is 00:08:26 I was the queen of doing that in school Like pretending to think about the question When your teacher's looking at you But you're really just trying to get the answer off Everyone else's papers So So Harry gets picked up
Starting point is 00:08:41 He goes to Leaky Cauldron, you know, everybody finds him. Minister of Magic is like, ah, no worries, you blew up your aunt, we'll take care of it. But, because they're all worried about Sirius Black. This is the thing. They're trying to keep Harry safe. He doesn't know who Serious Black is, but he knows, like, they don't want him near him. They're all going back to Mr. Weasley says, like, you know, they don't want me to tell you, but Serious Black, he's out. Like, be careful.
Starting point is 00:09:05 Grave danger. Yeah, you're in grave danger. Nothing like sending a, like, 13-year-old off to school. cool like dude you're in grave danger good luck man yeah there's not much we can do but just you know everyone's right here um thing is he's a fucking wizard yeah but i mean so is ron but like i would entrust ron also like so serious black so right but shouldn't they know like where he is or no but shouldn't they know if if harry later in the film finds out that serious was one of harry's uh parents best friends then how come they don't know they don't know because the world
Starting point is 00:09:41 that serious is the one that betrayed Harry's parents. The world thinks that he double-crossed Harry's parents. You know what? And that's what I wrote in my notes. Because it's Gary Oldman, that's interesting because he's in Batman, and that was kind of what happened to Batman, where everyone thought Batman was the villain. He wasn't.
Starting point is 00:09:59 I love when movies crossed over like that. Gary Oldman, great actor. Phenomen, great actor. And he plays Sirius Black. He's such a great series Black. That's why I liked him. Yeah? We'll wait till the end of the film.
Starting point is 00:10:08 Yeah. What are thoughts and dementors? Those things are pretty scary, huh? Oh, did I delete one of them? No, you said you were like, did Harry just get his soul sucked out of him? I think that you wrote that down when they were on the train. Yes. They're on the way to school and the dementers show up and they're sitting with Lupin in the, but he's asleep in the.
Starting point is 00:10:27 Frightening, but adds an interesting layer to the story. Yeah. But also it's like you think they're bad, but they're really trying to be good. Like, no, like they're, very bad. Dementors? Yeah. Like they are. They are bad.
Starting point is 00:10:40 They're bad. They're trying to get serious, aren't they? No. I mean, yes, they're looking for serious, but, like, there's no reason for them to just randomly start, like, trying to attack Harry. That's what I thought, too, but I'm like, oh, like, they're supposed to be good. No, they're, like, objectively pretty shitty. They're bad. They're called dementals. Like, they're, they're, and look, they're used to protect a bad place. So, like, they are equally bad. Like, they're used to protect Ascaband, which is, you know, where all the evil witches and wizards are. And so, like, they have to be equally evil. And so, like, they have to be equally evil. but there's like no reason for them you know that's why dumbledore is like i was promised they were going to stay on the outskirts of school grounds because they just and they instill fear in you like without even passed out without yeah i mean without even like like you said like sucking the soul out of you they bring they it's everything gets chilled you feel cold like you get scared they're not
Starting point is 00:11:34 they're not nice i i never thought they were nice i was always under the impression they were bad Yeah, and they're pretty freaky looking. Like, it's one thing I remember, like, reading about them in the book. But they're, yeah, yeah. They are, they're pretty freaky for, for sure. We get to school and we find out that big, big day for Hagrid, promoted, he's a teacher. I was really happy for him. Can you believe it? He loves magical creatures.
Starting point is 00:12:00 He does. He's going to be in charge of them, or teaching about them. He does. He still kind of does not really know what he's doing. That was one of my favorite lines where he's like, like, how am I doing? Yeah, he's like, am I doing good? I will say this.
Starting point is 00:12:13 He plays favorites, obviously. Yeah, that he does. I mean, Harry, you're not going to love Harry Potter. Yeah, well, the thing is, Malfoy does suck, but you could tell Hagrid is playing favorites towards Harry. He's like, you could check this out, but Malfoy, you can't.
Starting point is 00:12:28 But that's fair, you know, you got to be a day. Without them, he's not coming out of Asapen at the end of the second one. So, yeah, they are definitely his favorites. But that's where we meet Buckbeak. Buckbeak is pretty cool He's a hippogriff Thoughts on Buckbeek Wait what is he a hippo
Starting point is 00:12:46 A hippogriff A hippogriff Is that a mix of a HIPPO O-G-R-I-FF Or it has nothing to do with real animals I don't Because it's definitely
Starting point is 00:12:56 He's got no hippopotamus in him That's for sure Well okay so I thought he was pretty cool Yeah Thought he was sick This is where I wrote down That it would be sick If I could fly on an animal
Starting point is 00:13:06 And not get hurt Right Because my question is Can he pretty attack Harry at all cost if something happens in the air, right? Like if Harry's on him Kind of like a dragon. Right, yes, because I
Starting point is 00:13:18 Yes, that's what my exact thought was. Like, how much control does he have of how hurt Harry gets? I don't think really any. He's, yeah. Which is why I wrote down what I wrote. Right, yeah. A hippogriff is
Starting point is 00:13:34 the, the four parts of a winged Griffin and the body of in the body and high in quarters of a horse. Kind of just crazy they threw Harry on with like no warning. It's like all right, go ride this thing. Yeah. What if you fall off?
Starting point is 00:13:50 He's a wizard. You know what he's crazy is like these things like sometimes you forget like obviously mythical creatures and this is the class care for magical you know mythical creatures, magical creatures, whatever you want to call them. And
Starting point is 00:14:03 a hippogriff like is really a mythical creature. It's like not something that was made up for Harry Potter. Oh, like, in the Bible. Well, there's definitely no hippogriffs in the Bible, but it is a legendary,
Starting point is 00:14:20 a legendary creature. It was invented by Ludovicho Ariosto at the beginning of the 16th century in a poem. He wrote about it. The hippogriff is a steed born of a mare and a griffin, something considered impossible. It is extremely fast and is presented as being
Starting point is 00:14:39 able to fly around the world and to the moon. That's so is... And then, you know, J.K. Rowling just plucked that for a character. That's a good character for Harry Potter. Totally. Totally a good character. I'm a big fan of Buckbeak. Also, a great part of these movies is when they just have...
Starting point is 00:15:01 Like, they're getting older, right? So, like, they are doing, like, kid stuff, like, teen stuff. It's like, oh, after class, you get to go to Hogsmeat and hang out with your friends, but if you don't have your permission slip side, you can't go. I was so pissed. Also, like, yeah, just forge it.
Starting point is 00:15:19 Yeah, that doesn't seem to cross his mind. Or like, you're a wizard. Like, no, like, yes, but on the other side of that, there is probably something that Professor McGonagall could use to test if it was forged or not. That is a good counterpoint. Like, I bet you could test if magic was used
Starting point is 00:15:39 on this slip. We have two opposing wizards right now in front of me. It's whose magic will win. Yeah, exactly. I sense a duel. Yeah. So he obviously he's dying to go to Hogsmead wants to go. So brings out the old invisibility cloak. He gets the
Starting point is 00:15:55 Morridor's Map from Fred and George. I think the invisibility cloak is one of the things that I am most interested in. Yeah. In having in my own life. Yeah. Invisibility cloak is awesome. And and you know is important down the line would be dangerous for me feel like you end up hearing
Starting point is 00:16:15 things you don't want to hear yeah yeah definitely no it's like yeah do not come near me here in the invisibility club i'm just saying like sometimes if i'm like if there's people in another room i'll shut the door just because i don't want to hear something that i don't need to know you said this about the bathroom i said this about the bathroom too when that's a thing that i do i'm sure a lot of people do when people if I'm in a stall and someone walks into the bathroom on a public bathroom I have to like cough or like make no just so that they know someone's in there yeah I don't want any weird stuff happening and I'm like stuck in the stall very fair no doesn't want any shenan type thing could have like or you hear some some shit for you type thing you hear some shit
Starting point is 00:16:56 talking yeah that's like yeah I don't want to hear I don't want to hear yeah yeah I think that's super fair um what did we think of the map the map the map the map that that shows where everybody is in the castle. Oh. I feel like that's a dangerous thing to have. It's like one of those. Now, that's like the Snapchat map. Yeah, it's like a Snapchat.
Starting point is 00:17:15 I shut that shit off. I don't have Snapchat. Marauders map is just a Snapchat map. It's just, that's where Snapchat got the idea. I think they got it pretty easily too. They're like, where'd you get it? Yeah, it's explained a little bit more. Hey, where'd you get that map?
Starting point is 00:17:30 Oh, I found it on the desk over there. Things were explained a little bit more in the, in the, in the books, but like, Masters, Mooney, Wormtail, Pathfoot, and Prong, like, Prague, they're all, I guess I can just say it. I don't think there's, like, some big reveal about it, but that is them. Like, that is Harry's dad and their friends. It's like, it was their map. That makes time.
Starting point is 00:17:51 That's why Lupin was like, I haven't seen that in a long time. Like, where the fuck did you find that? I would have thought there's, like, multiple ones. There's only one. No, that's it. One. That's the one. And so obviously when he sees, like, Peter Pedigrew on the map, he freaks out
Starting point is 00:18:04 because he finds out listening to spying on the rest of the group that McGonagall's like, you know, and worst of all, he's Harry Potter's Godfather. Yes. Yeah, that's actually... I felt like I was watching The Godfather for a second. I know. One of my favorite parts
Starting point is 00:18:21 to go back and laugh at, and Daniel Rackleff did progressively become like a better and better actor, but the tears that he has after he finds that out and Harry and Ron Ron and Hermione go to chase him
Starting point is 00:18:37 and he's like still under the cloak and he's like oh poor where we're laughing at poor Harry He's footsteps No it was just like It was just the sound
Starting point is 00:18:48 he was making Because then it's like When he takes it off And he's like He was their friend And like yells That's all right Now we're getting somewhere
Starting point is 00:18:55 It's better at him I was like you don't want to get Harry angry Yeah this is You know Harry's good when he's angry Yeah the anger is for sure coming through
Starting point is 00:19:04 but that was like when you just see the footsteps and Ron Hermione and you just hear like ooh-oh-oh-hoo-hoo-hoo-hoo. Harry, are you in here? It's like, what? What's going on? But I'm trying to think. The Dementers play a part, obviously, in the Quidditch match and the thunderstorm and everything. Quiddish has played in all elements, just want to get that out there.
Starting point is 00:19:29 I love that. Yeah. It's like historic that they like do not really. cancel matches for anything. As they shouldn't. Yeah. NFL, quidditch. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:19:39 Yeah. Yeah. Like, they should be playing at all times, although not well for Harry. Yeah. This didn't go well for him. No, no, no. It definitely did not. His broom gets absolutely wrecked.
Starting point is 00:19:49 He ends up in the informerry a lot. Infirmary. The informary. Well, he does learn a lot of things in the infirmary, so. I meant to say infirmary. What did they do to say him from falling from the sky? Like, like, was that Dumbledore? Like, he just like,
Starting point is 00:20:04 was like caught him or something? He throws out some kind of spell that either it's, I don't know, stops him in midair or... It's like, oh, he's just falling to his death and makes like... What about those things? We didn't talk about this
Starting point is 00:20:16 and I think this happened before this I'm pretty sure. The things that they were eating and then barking. Yeah, they were all hanging out. They were all hanging out and they were like making the animal sounds. Rowing. Yeah, that boys being boys.
Starting point is 00:20:30 Yeah, I was like, what's good? They're having a nice sleepover. Yeah. Like that's just an instant. side look at what's happened in the Gryffindor dormitory. They were just saying it out. Yeah. Ron's like he's a lion, roaring like a lion. I was like, oh, that's when I was tripping.
Starting point is 00:20:42 I was like, yeah. He was like, he was like, what the fuck? Well, that's happening. Because it also just didn't really match up. Yes. Hearing a growl like that come out of Ron made me feel uneasy. So what's also like a big part of them going to
Starting point is 00:20:57 Hogsmead is like there's all these other places and shops like for them to go to. So like there's Honeydukes in Hogsmead, which is like the sweet shop. And so that's probably like that's something you could probably pick up at honeydews. I just got these crazy mushrooms. Let's take them later.
Starting point is 00:21:12 And let's try to see what happens. Exactly. I like him in Buckford you didn't say when he hurt. When he hurt Malfoy? That was fine. And Haggard was like, oh, whatever, you're fine.
Starting point is 00:21:22 Yeah. And of course, like, he just was like, wait until my father hears about this. Draco actually is probably one of the ultimate, like, do you know who my dad is? Kids. He really is. He didn't really do much for me in this movie.
Starting point is 00:21:36 He was like a little bitch in this movie. For sure. Hermione punches him in the face. It's awesome. He like runs away. That was like my favorite. I favorite part of this movie too. What do I want to say?
Starting point is 00:21:49 Oh, the bugger, boggarts. I always say this weird boggars. What are you saying? With the clown when they're like, oh, you have to do what you're scared of and then they turn it into something funny. Did not like that. Did not like that. I have to say, as I've gone.
Starting point is 00:22:03 gotten older, that clown has gotten scarier and scarier. Like it used to not bother me that much, but it got scary and scary. Have you noticed that things get scarier when you get older? Yeah. And that's like correct me if I'm wrong, but I think that was like supposed to be the funny thing. Like it turned into that. Yeah. Like that was supposed to be funny. What I said
Starting point is 00:22:21 is actually the opposite of how people usually feel is like they were scared of things and they got older and got rid of it. No. I think I definitely get more scared of sometimes scared of things you get older. Yeah, I am so much more scared of things than I Yeah. When I was a kid. Because I feel like you're kind of naive as a kid. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:22:36 I don't think I was really scared of much. I liked scary movies. I wasn't afraid of the dark. Like, nothing scared me. No, I feel like that. I'm afraid of a lot of things now.
Starting point is 00:22:45 Yeah. Yeah, I'm afraid of a lot of things. I'm more paranoid. It's like realistic, like, life things. It's not like fictional. Like,
Starting point is 00:22:52 I could be scared in the moment, but I'm not like, oh my God. Like, I'm not thinking about that clown for the rest of the night. Yeah. I guess that's true. There's a big buildup,
Starting point is 00:23:00 obviously, to the end of this movie. the Bertronis. You're like, why that's got to come into play at some point. Professor Trelawney, played by the great Emma Thompson, is... A lot of good actors. Yeah, there's some really great actors in these movies. And she's like, the grim and they're doing the divin... Oh, God, I can't say this word.
Starting point is 00:23:26 Divination. Divin... Shoot, Fran. Sounds good to me. Oh boy It is Divination I said it right
Starting point is 00:23:37 Divination The grim She gets like She's She's funky Professor Chalani And Hermione is just like Showing up in classes
Starting point is 00:23:47 That Ron's like How the fuck did you get here? You just popped out of nowhere And she's taking all the classes Most Hermione thing ever To literally use like something So that she could put more classes On her schedule
Starting point is 00:23:59 in case she could go to do more school. Yeah, and Hermione, like, didn't like the class, like... Yeah, because she's practical, and divination is, like, very, you know, prophecies and cup readings. Like, she's more like, give me the, give me what I can learn in a book. Mm-hmm. More straightforward. And... Did you base your personality off Hermione growing up?
Starting point is 00:24:27 I was just thinking that. 100%. I feel like, for... and yeah like 100% not like a role model not like fully on purpose but I think I just really liked her and liked her character that I wanted to be like her not I don't think I ever had a moment when I was like 13
Starting point is 00:24:42 being like I'm gonna act exactly like Hermione I just think it sort of just happened I think it just sort of started to happen a lot of parallels yes yeah which is why when I was talking about on our episode when we were talking about the reunion and I was like I like literally like cried at the end for so long because it was like Emma Watson
Starting point is 00:25:01 may be emotional talking about Hermione but we can talk about that later. The the big moment Buckbeak is like sentenced to death because Drake goes a little bitch and the executioners come in they're taking, so they're going
Starting point is 00:25:15 to see Hagrid before it happens. Buckbeak, they get sent away. Buckbeak is killed and scabbards. No buckbeaks were hurting the making of this movie. Yes, yeah. Yeah. No hippogriffs. No hippogriffs.
Starting point is 00:25:35 Scabbers runs into the freaking wamping willow. Ron, it's just a whole disaster. Then the dog comes out and they're chasing the dog is chasing scabbers. He freaks out. Everybody's going into the whopping willow, which then brings them to the shrieking shack, which is where you get the big revelation. Now, a lot of animals in this film. Yeah. There are. There are. Not the biggest fan of scabbers just because I don't like rats. Super fair. And I feel like, you know,
Starting point is 00:26:02 if Ron likes him, that's cool. But I'm not the biggest fan. Right. And I mean, they didn't know he was a person. Yeah. Right. Like they've had him. He has, he has been in rat form for 12 years. Exactly. Which is crazy. Which is why when he turns in back into a human, he's very raty.
Starting point is 00:26:18 Does he think like a human while he's a rat? Or is he like, or he's like taken out from ringing around? He's like, oh, like, it's just like. I, to be honest, I'm not totally. Totally sure. And I think you're still thinking like a person. A person. Like when Sirius is like, oh, your, like, your dad joke with me that I should be a dog, like, permanently. But I couldn't deal with the fleas. I think it's kind of like twilight when they become the werewolves. They're still in the mind of like who they are as humans. They're just in the werewolf form. Yeah. Yeah. Anamagus is, it's just what you, the only information really is is,
Starting point is 00:27:00 who could transform themselves into an animal and back again at will. It's a learned skill unlike the hereditary skill of metamorphosis. Information on, and it's taught in the third year transfiguration class. Because Professor McGonigal turns into a cat. You all saw that happen, obviously, in the first one. She does that. You know, I'm honestly not quite sure. I think that you can.
Starting point is 00:27:26 It would be my guess. Yes. And you also, like, can still, like, live a longer life. as a, like, in your animal form. Because like they're saying, like, you think it's kind of weird for a rat to live 12 years and like a common rat to live 12 years because he was actually Peter Pettigrew. Right, but probably harder, easier to die as the animal. Yeah, it's, he really made his way into the right family when he landed as the pets for the
Starting point is 00:27:58 for the Weasley's. But no, he comes back. Lupin shows up, Sirius is there, and Ron's like, he's an out of Vegas, it's him, and then they realize they're actually not bad. Right. So then Harry realizes these are his parents' best friends. Yeah, correct. His dad's best friends. Yeah. He already knew that about Lupin, right? Because they had talked a ton about it. But when Lupin and Sirius hug and they're like, you're like, what the fuck. They're allies. Yes. And Peter is the bad guy. Yeah. And you you tell just by how ugly he is.
Starting point is 00:28:34 He's disgusting. Yeah, he's just gross. He's really gross looking. He's a perfect little like Goldemort henchman looking. And so he's the actual problem. Yeah. And that's why in my notes I said people are getting framed left away in these films. The last one was Hagrid. It wasn't him.
Starting point is 00:28:50 And now in this film, they're getting framed. Yeah. Not them. They're actually good guys. They are. They're actually trying to help Harry. And Snape comes in. Useless. So I actually. But there's a lot of history with Snape that I feel like also is just not, you guys just don't know yet. I'm not going to explain a lot of it.
Starting point is 00:29:10 But like they also were all in school at the same time, which they kind of referenced these. And when Sirius is like, why don't you go play with your toy chemistry set or whatever the fuck he says? He, like they were all in school together. And Snape was like a loser. And they were like the cool kids. Which is why I kind of like Snape. Yeah. because I'm confused and I don't know what's going on with him.
Starting point is 00:29:33 I feel like we're going to find like a discovery story about him eventually. Yeah. Which I've said the last two times. Or it's going to be like, oh, it makes sense now why he's always in these movies but never really doing that much. Yeah. But always looking really suspicious. Always looking very suspicious. And one of the...
Starting point is 00:29:53 Is he related to Harry? Is he related to Harry? Yeah. No. Okay. I'll tell you. I'll just, I'll cross that theory off the list. He, there is like, which kind of shows sort of where his heart lies.
Starting point is 00:30:09 Like there's moments where you're like, okay, he really, like, hates Harry. And there's moments where like, maybe he doesn't hate Harry that much. Or maybe he like cares a little bit or doesn't care. Like when Lupin takes the wearable form. Did Stap used to date Harry's mom? That would be crazy. He's like, Harry, I'm your father. Snape's actually Harry's real dad
Starting point is 00:30:31 Yeah But he like You never know Everyone's somebody else He puts the He puts all three of the kids Like behind his back That's when I was like
Starting point is 00:30:42 Oh shit Snakes a good guy Yeah You know So there are moments Where you're like okay But And then Harry just
Starting point is 00:30:49 Fucked him up Yeah they kind of fuck up He's chasing after Serious Because they're fighting Lupin Lupin's a werewolf By the way
Starting point is 00:30:56 Oh Lupin is a werewolf and they could chase down to the lake and the deventors are there and they're like very close to giving Sirius the kiss where he's just toast he's just like a vegetable and Harry sees like someone across the lake doing the protronus saves them
Starting point is 00:31:16 they wake up in the... He thinks it's his dad by the way and Hermione's like he's dead your dad's dead but they're and then they're back in the informer hand And they...
Starting point is 00:31:29 Yep. And they learn. And they learn. They're learning in there. Well, Dumbledore's like, hey, you might be able to save two souls. And Hermione whips out the time turner. It's like, oh shit, this is how... This is how she's been able to get to all of her classes.
Starting point is 00:31:48 And they go back. They are able to save Buckbeak. They use Buckbeak to run away. They use Buckbeak. to help with werewolf Lupin in that time and they
Starting point is 00:32:04 that's also when Harry's like when Hermione's like nobody's coming and Harry performs the patroness to save himself. Yes. Harry realizes it's just himself. It's just him which is a common mistake because everyone does say
Starting point is 00:32:17 that they look alike. Oh yeah. It's just and they're able to go back get serious out of the Tower or Buckbeak, they fly away. They're good to go.
Starting point is 00:32:32 Good moment. Good moment. The end of the movie, I was like, Harry's on top again. Yeah, he is. Like, that's, that Harry. I feel like one of these movies coming up, it's going to end bad for Harry.
Starting point is 00:32:45 It has to. It genuinely has to. Things start to take a turn in the next one. I'm not going to lie. He can't win them all. Yeah. That'll have to be like, impossible. It's like an Avengers type where you're like,
Starting point is 00:32:55 you're like, oh my, like the ending is terrible. And then the next movie. Yeah, no, no. There's eight. There's eight films. There are eight films. Not even half a foot. No, no, no.
Starting point is 00:33:05 But there's, yeah, there's definitely a lot of underlying moments there, like, towards the end of just relationships. He got a new broomstick. He got a firebolt. He, like. And you're looking up there. Yeah. You got a new iPhone. He, like, possibly has, like, the godfather that he could, like, live with instead of the, instead of the jerseys, which would be huge.
Starting point is 00:33:29 but you know yeah he's still serious black still very wanted very a very wanted man so he can't just like start living not the hero we need but the one we deserve yeah series is at the top of my list of favorite characters yeah he is a good one because i'm rooting for him because this is unfair i know and the moments like that that moment the weasle think he's a bad guy the moment right before lupin changed he's a bad guy I know. The moment right before Lupin changes and like they're, you know, they're looking. He's like looking at the castle. He's like if you, you know, talking about living with each other.
Starting point is 00:34:04 It's very sweet. It's very sweet. And from, because I said I did watch the reunion. Yeah. But it was interesting, like, them talking about when Gary Oldman was on set. Yeah. And just like, I think it was like Daniel Radcliffe who was just so like starstruck by him. But he said he was like, it was crazy to have like such a real actor like acting with him.
Starting point is 00:34:25 Yeah, probably learned a lot too. Yeah, so they said like he was like, taught them a ton. Which is, it is very, very cool. I mean, between like, between all the teachers, Maggie Smith, obviously, like, multiple Dumberdoor characters, Emma Thompson, Alan Rickman, Alan Rickman, Gary Oldman,
Starting point is 00:34:47 Voldemort is Ralph Fines. Like, there's some, like, really, I'm trying to think of, Oscar. Helena Bonham Carter. Like there's some fairly big actress. What did you guys think of new Dumbledore? He's a little bit more spry. This.
Starting point is 00:35:05 I mean, Richard Harris, like, he only did the first two. And then he died, which sucked, like, because he was a great Dumbledore, but he was very old. Dumbledore just hasn't done it for me. I was like, I have to just admit. I didn't even notice. You didn't even notice the new Dumbledore? No, I didn't.
Starting point is 00:35:22 He moved so much. Faster. He's got a different, and he's got a different voice. Neither did it. I was just like, oh, there's that old Dumbled door.
Starting point is 00:35:29 That's why I said Dumbledore doesn't really do it for me because I honestly like, neither of you noticed this was an entirely new actor. No, I didn't. They both look like old guys with white hair. I also did not notice
Starting point is 00:35:41 and I didn't want to be the one to say it, but I'm happy you did. Unbelievable. I thought I was going to get in trouble if I said it. So I was like, he doesn't really do it for me. Which once again,
Starting point is 00:35:49 clearly he doesn't because I didn't notice it. They probably wanted to do it when you didn't notice. They did. They did like and Michael Imagine your kid watching and you're like, wait, that's not Dumbledo. Yeah, yeah. Michael Gambin did try and like take a lot of cues from Richard Harris,
Starting point is 00:36:05 who's the first guy who played him. But Michael Gamin also was just like he wanted to play the role a little bit differently and have Dumbledore be like a little bit more involved. Like there's way more moments in this one where Dumbledore is more involved or like just a little cheekier. He's just like doing backflips. like he's right he's like moving up the stairs i feel like when he moves up the stairs to go when the fat lady they can't find the fat lady uh the porch or the fat lady and he's moving pretty quick i feel like that's weird i don't know if i if i was a director i would be like no just just stay old like
Starting point is 00:36:38 he's very old no no i know but i'm saying like don't all of a sudden act differently yeah yeah yeah i guess but i mean i didn't notice so i mean either of you noticed so we did a great job He did a great job anyway. Let's talk favorite characters and who are interested in the most. Let's relist them. Let's talk about them before we do that. Let's talk about Coors. We are really enjoying rewatching these movies.
Starting point is 00:37:05 I think Ray and I have our setup down. Whatever day of the week it is, we're home. We cuddle up. We get a snack. We have to clear our schedule. There's no distractions. Got to be fully Harry Potter. We have made that very clear.
Starting point is 00:37:18 Yes, we have. Which is why we also enjoy it with a nice cold Coors Lights are, you know, the official beer of chicks in the office. We love Coors Light. So the best way to enjoy any of these movies, you're sitting at home, you turn the lights off, you just sit back on your couch, you grab your Corse Light, and you're ready to go. There's so many stresses and pressures and things happening in your life that sometimes you just need a moment to chill to unwind. and doing that while watching a Harry Potter film is an amazing combination. So Coors Light, you guys know, the mountains on the bottles and cans, turn blue when your beer is cold. That way you always know when it's time to chill.
Starting point is 00:37:58 Coorslight is cold loggered, cold filtered, and cold packaged. It's literally made to chill. I actually would say if there was an official, this might not sound great because we know dementors are bad. But if there was to be an official beer of the dementers, it would be Coors Light. always colds. They're bringing the chill. There you go. They're bringing the chill. They are. So. Dementors like beer too.
Starting point is 00:38:21 Yeah. Yes, they do. The Coorsight is as crisp and refreshing as the Colorado Rockies. Perfect for a moment to unwind. So Coorslight is the one we choose when we need to unwind. So when you want to hit reset, reach for the beer that's made to chill. Get Coors Light in the new look delivered straight to your door with Drizzly or Instacart. But going to Coorslight.com slash chicks. And always celebrate responsibly.
Starting point is 00:38:42 This is coming from the Coors Brewing Company. Golden, Colorado. Okay, so my favorite characters. Okay, yeah. We got new ones. I will read again second movie for this, for Chamber of Secrets, this is the list you gave me. Snape, Harry, Ron, Hagrid, Draco, Hermione, McGonagall, Double Door.
Starting point is 00:39:02 Okay. We can add in new characters because there's new people. We can take people off. I just want to restart. Yeah, restart. Fresh start. This is for third movie. Okay. Who we got? serious? Yep But is your favorite?
Starting point is 00:39:19 These are my favorites I'm gonna put Have you been doing favorite or be doing this is the one where This is the one where we did Who are you most interested? Oh most I'm serious I'm serious
Starting point is 00:39:27 I'm still very interested in it Yeah Is he gonna be I mean I guess you can't tell us But like I kind of took it as like We're not gonna see much more of him But maybe we will I would think we're gonna see more of him
Starting point is 00:39:38 Why would you think I would give you an answer to that No no I'm not saying you will But I'm just like that's how I took it of like, I was like, oh, I don't expect to see that much of him in the upcoming. He's a pretty important character. Well, I would say he's important because now people are still looking for him. Yeah. Okay.
Starting point is 00:39:52 Serious? Yeah. I'm going to keep Snape up there just for the sole reason I need to know more about this man. Yeah. Um. I would say Snape's probably my number one. Like, I'm going to. Serious Snape.
Starting point is 00:40:07 And then Harry's got to stay up top. Yeah. The three of them have to. Ron Hermione. Harry Ron Hermione. They all stay pretty up top. Draco, I'm not interested in. Let's take him off.
Starting point is 00:40:21 You can take him off. Like, I'm just not interested in him anymore. He's been removed. Any other new characters we met this episode, or this episode, this movie? Does Buckbeak count? Sure. Put him on there.
Starting point is 00:40:34 RIP. RIP. Buckbeak's alive. He's alive now. He's alive. Yeah, they didn't actually kill him. They saved me. Remember Dumbled was like you could save two soul?
Starting point is 00:40:43 Well, RIP for a second. Yes, RIP for a second, but then he... Maybe I'll put Buckbeek above Ron and Hermione. Harry Buckbeak, then Ron and Hermione. Tough for Ron. No, no, no, no. Actually, put Buckbee below the two kids. Okay.
Starting point is 00:40:59 Is looping on this list anywhere? Oh, yes. But I'm not as interested in him as I am serious. You can put him anywhere. You can put him at the bottom. You can put him after Buckbeek. Yeah. And then put Hagrid.
Starting point is 00:41:12 Okay. and then McGonagall and Dumbledore, I'm still not very interested. Okay, why don't we just wipe them from the list then? You're not even, you're not involved right now. Maybe you will be. Maybe a little bit. These characters, I'm interested.
Starting point is 00:41:24 Give me another Dumbledore. Give me a new guy. Yeah, yeah. Switch it up again, see if we notice. Now, for, I guess, like, I guess it's pretty similar, right, as just, like, favorite characters. Yeah, that's all, it's all, like, very similar.
Starting point is 00:41:39 Well, no, because I wouldn't say Snape is my favorite character. Yeah. I'm just most interesting. But you still put serious at the top. I would put serious at the top as a favey. Yeah. All the kids, obviously. Yeah, I would keep that list kind of similar besides Snape.
Starting point is 00:42:00 It's not a favor. I'm just very interested in him. Okay. What, were there any favorite character moments for the big three? Harry Ron Hermione, did you have any favorite character moments? punching Draco in the face Also Hermione just telling Harry
Starting point is 00:42:17 Like your dad's dead Yeah Like just quick reminder Yeah The group hug Group hug The hand Grab between Ron and Hermione
Starting point is 00:42:27 Which is going to be interesting Later on Yeah Which I think I already know Ron's gonna get jealous Ron And those weird things they were eating When the boys were hanging out
Starting point is 00:42:37 Reyes just like I gotta find the name of those That just made me laugh Like I was like Wait a second what's happening here. And I like Harry, and I think I said this, the last movie, too. I just like Harry when he gets angry.
Starting point is 00:42:52 And he's very protective of his family and his parents in which he does not know. Yeah. I was just sound producing sweets. Sound producing sweets. Which they get in Honeyducks. And yeah, I think I like when Harry gets angry. I think that's interesting. And we see the most emotion out of him then and those other moments.
Starting point is 00:43:12 I named for this is just from a soul like who I was like oh I got now I like them more like Dan and Rockcliffe had his moment
Starting point is 00:43:24 he was getting there not quite when I first watched these movies when this one happened I was like Ron's getting kind of cute the third one there and they all they're all just looking
Starting point is 00:43:37 grown up so a little bit more grown up which is a thing Noah if any what are favorite character moments. Can I say something before he says that about the growing up? Yeah. They had no idea how these kids were going to grow up and look. They got grown up and look real ugly. Yeah. That didn't happen. It didn't happen. All good looking people. That didn't happen. But you never know when you're casting young kids. You're true. That is true. How would you rank them today? Like I'm saying, like Emma Watson is one of the most beautiful girls ever. Yeah. And both of them are
Starting point is 00:44:04 like handsome handsome men. So I'm just saying you just never know. Yeah. Yeah. Favorite character moments? I said earlier, but the Hagrid, like, asking how he's doing as a teacher. Yeah. Made me laugh. Definitely, like, when Hermione beat up. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:44:20 I liked Snape. Like, when Snape came in and saved them, I, like, gained respect for Snape and kind of, like, on Team Snape now. Super fair. Super fair. For me, like, my favorite Harry moment in this movie is, It is really cruel, but it is that those weird, the crying under the invisibility cloak makes me laugh every time. Ron, I always laughed at Ron's just like, it was the same kind of thing with Chamber of Secrets. Not really, because Hermione was petrified, but like Ron, they just leave Ron in the bed and they come back. And he's like, you were just there.
Starting point is 00:45:07 Now you're here. And they're like, don't fucking worry about it, Ron. Shut up, Ron. You don't need to know what just happened. And then one of my favorite Hermione lines, this movie is when they're in Hagrid's hut and Buckbeak's about to get killed and she has to throw the stone things to break the vase. Hilarious, amazing aim. No one can do that. It cracks me up every time.
Starting point is 00:45:32 But also when they run, when the three of them run out and then Harry and Hermione have to run behind the trees and Hermione's like, is that really what my hair looks like from the back. That was good. That is like my favorite curly hair girl like thing because there's been so many times when you're, every girl has had that moment. They see the back of their head and they're like, is that really what my fucking hair looks like from the back? That's why I don't let anyone film me from the back or let me see the back of my head
Starting point is 00:45:57 because I'm rolling up like I'm in seventh grade. The classic middle school for getting straight in the back. Yeah. Like I felt like that was such a great teen moment. Now, like I said, at the beginning, this was a different director. Alfonso Caron, you know, well-known, big director.
Starting point is 00:46:16 He's obviously done more things like post-that. But I'm just curious, like, if you guys felt that watching. Absolutely. Like, it had, if it had different vibes. Yeah. Definitely. I liked this movie way better than the first two.
Starting point is 00:46:31 Okay. And I, and this is the thing my ratings are going to be so weird going forward because the first two, I... This is the thing. I like that we're going to rate each movie as we watch. When we get to the end and finish eight, we can go back and redo all of them. We'll regrade. I definitely liked
Starting point is 00:46:48 the second one better than the first, but I like the third one better than both of them. Because I felt like there were so many different layers and I actually felt like even though there were a lot of different layers to this one, I felt like I understood it a lot more than the first two. Or just the second one. I understood the first one.
Starting point is 00:47:04 The first one was plain and simple, learning about it. Second one, I understood um you just become more familiar yes i think maybe it's more so that i just know it a lot better now because of watching the first two yeah but i even though i said it was scary and and whatever i actually think that adds a lot more to the movie and it's definitely not like a kid film to me anymore no no what did you did you sense it like could you oh yeah because i feel like they're a big movie buff definitely like darker uh yeah just overall and like more cinematic yeah it's definitely more cinematic and the way it's definitely more cinematic and the way
Starting point is 00:47:37 The more times I watch it, the more changes I see. You know, like, he changed a bunch of stuff. You know, he changed the locations of things. Like, the Wamping Willow's kind of in a different place. Haggert's Hut looks different than the past movies. This one I would have loved to see in theaters. Yeah. Especially when he's flying on Buckbeak for the first time.
Starting point is 00:47:56 Like that, and I wrote down beautiful scenery. Like, you could tell that that would have looked really good in theater. Definitely just like the whole like landscape and everything. Because in the second one, even when they fell down, what was that called? where they all fell down the hole, like that whole thing. Oh, they went into the chamber secrets. The chamber secrets, yeah.
Starting point is 00:48:13 Literally the name of the movie. What was that hole called? Harry Potter and the chamber secrets. Yeah, the chamber secrets. I was like, you could, I almost could tell like it was a set. Yeah, yeah, yeah, like it didn't look as real. Yeah. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:48:28 And I think the second one being about something, I liked this one, I think, better because it was about the people, right? Like, right? Right, you're learning more about Harry and his parents and his family. And they're looking for people and serious. And there's so many layers to the people where it's like Chamber of Secrets was a place. Yeah. And things weren't real in there.
Starting point is 00:48:50 Like, you know, they were, but they weren't. Like the whole, you know I was thrown off by the whole Voldemort thing and his younger self. I'm like, what the fuck's going on here? I still liked it a lot. But I enjoyed this one the most so far. Okay. So let's do final scores for. prisoner of
Starting point is 00:49:08 Ascaban. I'll go over. I will say this was for Chamber of Secrets. Ria went 7.6. Noah went 7.3 and I did a 7 flat. So what do we feel for prisoner of Ascaban? I would love to lower my second film score, but we'll do it at the end.
Starting point is 00:49:25 We'll do it at the end. I'm going to give this one an 8.4. Okay. Noah? I still like like the first one, I think. That's fine. I forgot to write down our first movie scores.
Starting point is 00:49:39 I think I give the first one, seven, eight. I got to, we got to, when we, we'll go, go back and listen and tell me so we can write them down. Yeah. I'll give this one a seven, seven. Seven, seven. Prisoner basketball band is one of my, is one of my faves. This one for me is, like I said, I say this every time. I do have the advantage of seeing any other movies.
Starting point is 00:50:08 but I will score solely based on this movie alone is like an it's very similar to you Rhea I would go like 8-3 I was going to move mine down to an 8-3 yeah so but I'll keep mine in at an 8-4 I'll change it to an 8-3 if you would like me to change it to an 8-3 I'd like to change it to a battery Ria and Fran are going in at an 8-3
Starting point is 00:50:28 Noah is 7-7 and yes this is a great jumping point because like you said we actually are starting to learn more like about Harry's family which connects a lot to Voldemort and whatnot, and then four is... I'm kind of missing Voldemore in this one. Four is...
Starting point is 00:50:46 Yeah, I thought he was going to pop up at any time. Four is pretty explosive. What's the name of it? Harry Potter and the Gobel of Fire. Okay. The Gobble of Fire, just for some early background for you two, is they host the Tri-Wizard tournament
Starting point is 00:51:02 at Hogwarts. And basically students from all other like wizard schools, and witch schools from across the world all come to Hogwarts and they compete in a competition the best witches and wizards compete in a competition. Oh, fuck! So we got different schools? I thought there was only one
Starting point is 00:51:20 wizard school. No, no, no. Oh! Yeah, get ready. This is exciting. Now I'm glad I didn't watch the fourth one. Yes. So the gobble to fire is people, the students put all their names into the goblet of fire and then the goblet of fire decides who... It's like Love Island.
Starting point is 00:51:36 The Gobble of Fire decides who competes in the Tri-Wizard tournament. Yeah. I'm excited for that one. I just wanted to give you guys a little tease. No, I like that tease. That's also one of the really good ones. That's a good one. My sister said her favorites are three and four.
Starting point is 00:51:51 All right, any final thoughts? No, besides, I really liked this one better than the other two. And I feel like I'm going to keep saying that after everyone. That's the way series are supposed to go a lot of the time. But I walked in today and I said to you, crazy film. Crazy film. Yeah. did. I'm looking forward to four now after what you just said. Okay. Awesome. Well, I think that
Starting point is 00:52:11 wrapped it up for Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Asap.
