Harry Potter Film vs Book Differences
00:01:06
Speaker
Now for our fun fact of the day.
00:01:08
Speaker
Did you know, in the book series, Harry Potter has unique green eyes, inherited by his mother, Lily Potter, but in the films, he has blue eyes. Daniel Radcliffe, who played Harry Potter, was given green contact lenses but could not wear them due to a severe allergic reaction.
00:01:27
Speaker
They tried very hard to stick to the books at first. Hermione was also described in the books as having buck teeth, so they tried to get Emma Watson to wear dentures in the first movie.
00:01:39
Speaker
Apparently she's wearing them in the last scene of Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone if you look very closely. That was one of the first scenes they filmed. But the director decided she didn't have to wear them anymore because he thought they looked silly and affected the way she talked.
00:01:55
Speaker
I definitely give them credit for trying to stick to the books. I know, they really try to.
Debate: Invisibility Cloak vs Time Turner, Gingerbread vs Lemon Drop
00:02:01
Speaker
All right, let's get into a quick round of This or That.
00:02:08
Speaker
This or That, magical items. Would you rather own an invisibility cloak or a time turner? I think I'd have to choose the invisibility cloak. Like sometimes I just want to like go about my day without having to like – Nobody talk to you. Nobody do anything to you.
00:02:26
Speaker
You can sneak into things that – like you could sneak into a concert or – That would be so fun. everything. Like attend Taylor Swift's wedding. That be amazing. Exactly. What about you?
00:02:37
Speaker
That's what I would want too. so Yeah. I mean I don't know if anyone would choose the time turner but – I mean I guess it would be good if you want to change some things in your past. Yeah. True. Or juggle multiple classes like Hermione.
00:02:50
Speaker
All right. This or that. And these are taken from the official Harry Potter cookbook. Would you rather eat Hogwarts Express gingerbread cookies or Dumbledore's mystical lemon drop pudding?
00:03:06
Speaker
I gotta go with the lemon drop pudding. That sounds amazing. Me too. I love lemon drop stuff. Like anything like lemon cookies or... you like lemon meringue pie?
00:03:17
Speaker
Yes. I'm assuming that's what Dumbledore's mystical lemon drop pudding kind of tastes like. So... All right, let's get into our Harry Potter trivia questions.
