We Know What You Hate About The "Harry Potter" Movie Adaptations

Nothing makes you angrier than Michael Gambon's inexplicable acting choice to scream at and manhandle Harry, "DID YOU PUT YOUR NAME IN THE GOBLET OF FIRE?!" It says right there in the book, "\* [calmly](http://imgur.com/gallery/MiectdP)\*"! Would Dumbledore ever lose his shit like that? No. He would not.

Aggressive Dumbledore in _Goblet of Fire_

Oof. This terrible bit of acting just makes you cringe so hard. C'mon, Daniel Radcliffe, I was rooting for you. We were all rooting for you.

"HE WAS THEIR FRIEND!" in _Prisoner of Azkaban._

You can't stand that the filmmakers turned the epic final battle into this lame, weird, slap fest. They are like wrestling midair? Poorly? Why would they do that when they have wands??

Harry–Voldemort fight in _Deathly Hallows Part 2._

You really hate what the movies did to your precious Ginny Weasley. You'll fight anyone who says she's a boring character with a "NOT IN THE BOOKS SHE WASN'T!!" What happened to the feisty, badass little sister that our queen J.K. Rowling wrote?

Ginny's entire characterization.

"RON IS NOT JUST CHEAP COMIC RELIEF!" you scream in frustration at the TV screen as you watch yet another _Harry Potter_ weekend. You love that Hermione shines on the screen, but the directors didn't need to belittle Ron's character to achieve that. Sigh.

Ron's entire characterization.

You cry in frustration every time this painfully awkward scene comes up. It was so cute in the books! Everything is awful; time to go look at fan art.

Harry–Ginny kiss in _Half-Blood Prince._

Oh god, you hate this scene. It's so awkward! They look like little kids playing dress up! You can't even watch.

Epilogue in _Deathly Hallows Part 2._

Every time this scene comes up, you're asking what the point of this addition was, besides cheap, racist jokes. No point. No point at all. Let's all just forget it happened, please.

Shrunken head in _Prisoner of Azkaban._

The inconsistency drives you nuts! Is the castle on a mountain? Is there a bridge? When the trio walks down to Hagrid's hut, some years the ground is flat and other years they're on a hill. Nothing is real.

The ever-changing Hogwarts grounds.

Why, just, why. It's just. Why. You laugh every time, because it's just so cheesy. What a face to end on.
