The Hogwarts Library is a series of three “Hogwarts textbooks,” including Fantastic Beasts And Where To Find Them, Quidditch Through The Ages and The Tales Of Beedle The Bard. One of these books contains “handwritten notes” from Harry Potter, Hermione Granger and Ron Weasley. This review will cover all three books as they are part …
The third screenplay in the Fantastic Beasts franchise, Secrets of Dumbledore, delves into details about the past of the beloved character Albus Dumbledore, exposing him in a light we’ve never seen before. We also continue with Newt Scamander, the legendary author of Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them as he rushes to aid Dumbledore …
There are a lot of questions about the Dumbledore family. That is why we’re here. To answer questions we’ve seen come up about the famous wizarding family that sired everyone’s favourite Hogwarts headmaster. These questions about the Dumbledore family will be in no particular order. Is Albus Dumbledore Gay? Yes, Albus is gay. This was …
A topic that comes up frequently is the order of the Harry Potter series. This means what order the books go in. What we wanted to do for this is include the screenplays for Fantastic Beasts and, of course, The Cursed Child stage play. We know people hate it, but it is semi-canon, so we …
It’s book review time! In Fantastic Beasts: The Crimes of Grindelwald, we get a look at the much deeper wizarding laws in the 1920s in America, France and Britain as Newt Scamander and his companions continue to fight against the dark wizard, Gellert Grindelwald. It also introduces the audience to a middle-aged (hot!) Albus Dumbledore …
Gellert Grindelwald was a dark wizard who preceded Lord Voldemort, the arch-enemy of Harry Potter. This post will look at the actors who played the same character in the Harry Potter and Fantastic Beasts films. Despite Gellert Grindelwald’s limited appearance in both screen franchises, it is surprising how many actors have played him. There are …
July was an odd month as we were still soldiering through Fire and Blood. We had to add something to our reads of 2023, so we read the Harry Potter prequel story on Muggle Net. Going into August, we started getting behind on Goodreads, so we read the first screenplay for the Fantastic Beasts films. …
Everyone knows the story of Harry Potter. But how much do they know about the years predating the Boy Who Lived’s birth? The film series Fantastic Beasts was a way to answer that question. In 2016, upon the release of Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them, a screenplay debuted written by J.K. Rowling herself. …
Aurors are almost like the wizarding police in the world of Harry Potter. After the Wizarding War, Harry becomes an auror alongside his best friend and brother-in-law, Ron Weasley, who later quits, joining his brother, George, at his joke shop, Weasley Wizard Wheezes. Throughout Harry’s adventures, he encounters many Aurors. However, the role existed well …
Albus Dumbledore has always had a unique role within the Wizarding World. Hopefully, when the television series drops (if it does), we’ll get a more detailed look at his life and everything to do with him; moreover, that brings us to his role in the life of Harry Potter and his adventures across seven books. …
There is a Harry Potter television series (hopefully) coming to Max [formerly HBO Max] in the next few years. While the book series that launched J.K. Rowling into international stardom is now somewhat controversial due to her views on transgender individuals, her previous work shouldn’t be hated because of her current opinions, but that’s neither …
The Harry Potter movies were a staple of many childhoods. In 2001 and competing with Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring came Harry Potter and the Philosopher’s Stone (Sorcerer’s Stone in the United States), starting a chain reaction that would last well into the 2020s. From 2001 to 2011, eight Harry Potter …
Helga Hufflepuff, a cofounder of Hogwarts alongside Rowena Ravenclaw, Godric Gryffindor and Salazar Slytherin, gets very little credit. Her house has had many famous names come through over the years. It’s time they get some recognition. What a lot of people might not know is that Hufflepuff will often take the students who didn’t fit …
David Tennant played Barty Crouch Junior in The Goblet of Fire, while four separate actors have portrayed Albus Dumbledore throughout the Harry Potter franchise. So who plays everyone’s favourite Gryffindor Head of House, and deputy headmistress, Professor Minerva McGonagall? There have been two lucky ladies who have played the fierce head of Gryffindor House. Dame …
Harry Potter fans will be more than familiar with The Philosopher’s Stone (Sorcerer’s Stone for American fans) and its creator Nicolas Flamel. But who was the man behind the creation? That’s what this is about. The character’s creation of the Philosopher’s Stone was the subject of the first Harry Potter book, where Lord Voldemort seeks …
Newt Scamander, played by Eddie Redmayne, has more of a role in the Wizarding World than people seem to realise. Before we jump into the character, here’s a quick look at the actor that plays Newt on-screen. Eddie Redmayne is a well-known English actor who is probably best remembered for his roles in biopics. However, …
