In the 1980s, there were only 63 Black films by, for, or about Black Americans. But in the 1990s, that number quadrupled, with 220 Black films making their way to cinema screens nationwide. What sparked this “Black New Wave?” Who blazed this path for contemporaries like Ava DuVernay, Kasi Lemmons and Jordan Peele? And how did these films transform American culture as a whole?

Play Later Play Later Lists Like LikedHey everyone, Welcome to another installment of Harry Potter Theory. Over the years I’ve done a few videos taking a look at major differences between the book and film versions of different characters, but the focal point in the past has always been more of a “spot the difference” angle. This time, the angle is different, and this video will serve as the first in a series of videos examining adaptation injustices: not just what was altered, but who got shortchanged and how those choices warped the character that we grew to love on the page. Today, I’m making the case that the films failed Ron Weasley—consistently sanding off his courage, wit, and heart until only a comic outline remained. Basically, Ron got nerfed.

1 Who Taught Dumbledore? And Why Was He Was So POWERFUL? – Harry Potter Theory 17:55
17:55 Play Later Play Later Lists Like Liked17:55
Play Later Play Later Lists Like LikedAlbus Percival Wulfric BRIAN Dumbledore is perhaps the greatest Wizard in history. This much is the truth, and it’s also something that even a stubborn dark wizard like Voldemort would have to admit (although perhaps not openly). Far from a one trick pony, by the time Dumbledore reached the tender age of 115 he had mastered nearly every branch of magic—from charms and transfiguration to potions, alchemy, and beyond. And this mastery wasn’t just theoretical—it was proven time and time again in the real world. In 1945 he famously defeated Gellert Grindelwald, ending one of the darkest chapters in wizarding history and claiming the Elder Wand in the process. And many decades later, Dumbledore duelled the next big dark Wizard with ease- effortlessly standing toe to toe with Voldemort in the MInistry atrium in 1996. But Dumbledore’s brilliance extended far beyond combat—he was a skilled Legilimens and Occlumens, capable of reading and shielding minds; a master of wandless and nonverbal casting, performing feats most wizards wouldn’t dare attempt; and a gifted inventor, credited with magical creations like the Deluminator. He even collaborated with Nicolas Flamel, gaining insights into the mysteries of alchemy. Time and again, Dumbledore demonstrated that his power wasn’t rooted in a single specialty but in a boundless command of magic itself. Which begs the question: how did he become such a beacon of knowledge and power? And even more specifically- who taught the man that knew everything?

In adapting the books to the big screen, the filmmakers took plenty of creative liberties...Personalities were altered, entirely new scenes were invented, character roles were switched and whole sections of the books were simply cut And over time, some of these changes have blurred the lines between book and film so much that, for many fans, they’ve fused into a single version of the story.

1 Why Did Sirius Black Keep Acting SO GUILTY? - Harry Potter Theory 13:55
13:55 Play Later Play Later Lists Like Liked13:55
Play Later Play Later Lists Like LikedBy the time we’ve finished Prisoner of Azkaban we’re meant to believe that Sirius Black was INNOCENT of the crimes for which he was accused. For those who might be a little fuzzy on the details, Sirius wasn’t just some random fugitive — he was Harry’s godfather, a loyal member of the Order of the Phoenix, and once the closest friend of Harry’s father, James Potter. And as we get closer to the end of the book/film, it’s finally revealed to Harry that the true traitor was Peter Pettigrew, not Sirius. It was Pettigrew who had betrayed James and Lily to Voldemort. It was Pettigrew who had faked his own death. And it was Pettigrew who had framed Sirius for the murder of twelve Muggles in broad daylight. Before we as readers — or Harry — learned the truth, the version of Sirius we were given was that of a dangerous, half-mad fugitive: the first wizard to ever escape from Azkaban, a man believed to have murdered thirteen people with a single curse, and someone whose very name could strike fear into the Wizarding population. And after these initial revelations of Sirius’ innocence come to light, Harry’s relationship with Sirius blossoms almost overnight — I’d argue, a little too quickly. In a matter of pages, Sirius goes from “the man who betrayed my parents” to “the godfather I never had,” with Harry seemingly almost immediately ready to drop the Dursleys behind and go and live with him (although we know, he couldn’t do that). But here’s my question: if Sirius was truly innocent, why didn’t he act like it? Why did so many of his choices — from the moment of his arrest to his escape and eventual return — seem to confirm the image of a dangerous, unstable man?

Both men were brilliant, ruthless, and obsessed with power, and while both of their tyrannical regimes eventually fell at the hands of the good guys, I do often wonder what could have happened if they had teamed up.

He was arrogant, shortsighted, and unreasonably obsessed with the pursuit of immortality. But one thing he WASN’T was someone who would shy away from MURDERING those who got in his way. He murdered Burbage mid-meal, order the murder of Cedric Diggory for standing in the wrong place at the wrong time, and ordered countless other deaths without hesitation. And even when his closest followers failed him-even slightly, he was quick to dispose of them..And simply move on. Just look at what happened to Wormtail, strangled by his own silver hand for showing a moment of mercy. Or Severus Snape, killed not for betrayal, but simply because Voldemort believed it would grant him mastery of the Elder Wand. But with all of this in mind, there’s one person Voldemort left alive that I still can’t make sense of: Horace Slughorn. Today we’re going to be discussing WHY Voldemort, more trigger-happy than perhaps ANYONE ELSE, made the unusual decision to leave Slughorn alive. Was it calculated? Merciful?

Play Later Play Later Lists Like LikedIf you’re a true Harry Potter fan, then I suspect that you, like me, had an impending sense of dread as you neared the final pages of the final book. After it all, it was the end of an era- and as far as I could tell at the time, there wasn’t much new Harry Potter content on the horizon (besides a few movies, of course). These books were released over a 10 year period spanning my entire adolescence, and needless to say- they were pretty important to me. Every release felt like a cultural event, and every chapter felt like stepping back into a world that- at times- felt more real than reality itself. So when I turned that final page of Deathly Hallows, I couldn’t help but feel… hollow. Not because the ending was bad — far from it. But because I wasn’t ready to leave. And sure, over the years we got more content — the Fantastic Beasts films, the Cursed Child play, and various other things — but none of it quite scratched that same itch. None of it picked up where Deathly Hallows left off in a way that felt fully satisfying. But what if there was ANOTHER book? A book that gave us REAL clarity on the aftermath of Voldemort’s downfall. A story that didn’t skip ahead nineteen years to a peaceful train station, but instead started in the rubble of Hogwarts — when the war was over. A story that could replace the words ‘All was well’ — not to placate us, but to finally show us what came next. That’s the story I want to explore.

As a boy, his magical brilliance turned heads — and as an adult, he defeated the dark wizard Gellert Grindelwald, became headmaster of Hogwarts, and was said to be the only wizard Voldemort ever truly feared. He’s also known for his intellect — famously discovering the twelve uses of dragon’s blood, publishing groundbreaking magical research, and earning countless awards and honors. To most, Dumbledore is the perfect blend of power and wisdom. A paragon of good. But the truth? Beneath all of the glory, the reality is far murkier. Because Behind the half-moon glasses and whimsical quirks is a man haunted by guilt — a man with a past so dark, he spent the rest of his life trying to bury it.

With filming just around the corner, today I’m breaking down the good, the bad, and the ugly — and making the case for why this series may (or may not) be redeemable. Let’s dive in to it.

1 HBO FIRED the NEW SNAPE?! – Addressing the Viral Rumors 8:36

Play Later Play Later Lists Like LikedAs HBO trudges ahead with its high-profile reboot of the Harry Potter series, most major roles have now been cast, including the announcement of 9 major roles just this week However, one decision continues to dominate online discourse: the casting of Papa Essiedu as Severus Snape. From the moment the announcement went public, the backlash has been unrelenting. While other casting choices have sparked minor debates—such as the updated portrayal of Hermione Granger—Essiedu's selection as Snape has received disproportionately heated responses across all platforms. And now, a new rumor is throwing more fuel on the fire: that HBO may be preparing to recast Snape altogether.

Play Later Play Later Lists Like LikedWelcome to another installment of Harry Potter Theory. A couple of weeks back it was reported that Tom Felton would be officially returning to the Wizarding World. But despite the whispers and speculation, nothing concrete was ever confirmed. All we knew was that a familiar face was returning, and for most fans, that seemed like enough. However, in a recent development, we’ve now got some clarity on Tom Felton’s return to the magical world.

1 Why Didn't Voldemort Use a GUN to Kill Harry? - Harry Potter Theory 10:50
10:50 Play Later Play Later Lists Like Liked10:50
Play Later Play Later Lists Like LikedVoldemort was the most dangerous Dark wizard in history. Capable of splitting his soul, flying without a broom, and leading an army of Death Eaters that would kill on his command. But one person he could never kill, no matter how powerful he seemed to get, was Harry. Of course, this was largely circumstantial. Harry was protected — first by his mother’s sacrifice, and then by the blood wards at Privet Drive. Not to mention the twin wand cores, piece of Voldemort’s soul inside of Harry, and the fact that Voldemort used Harry's blood to rebuild his body. They were, to some extent, inextricably tied to each other- and as the prophecy so aptly put it: “either must die at the hand of the other for neither can live while the other survives” But if we consider for a second that every failed attempt at killing Harry was MAGICAL in nature, it does reveal a slightly more obvious solution: the NON magical alternatives. MUGGLE weapons. See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info .…

1 Why Don’t Wizards Use Time Turners to Fix Everything? - Harry Potter Theory 12:47
12:47 Play Later Play Later Lists Like Liked12:47
Play Later Play Later Lists Like LikedIn the wizarding world, few magical objects spark as many ‘what if’ debates as the Time-Turner. If it could be used to save both Buckbeak and Sirius, why didn’t anyone just spin it a little further? Why not go back and stop Cedric Diggory’s death? Or warn Lily and James before Voldemort arrived? Why not save Dumbledore, or even stop Voldemort’s rise altogether by sabotaging Tom Riddle’s past? At a glance, it feels like the Time-Turner is the ultimate fix-it tool, a magical loophole that should’ve solved everything. But as always in the wizarding world, things aren’t that simple. Today, we’ll be diving deep into why the Time-Turner wasn’t used to rewrite history, fix every tragedy, and (among other things) put a stop to Voldemort before his reign of terror could even begin. Let’s dive in to it. See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info .…
