As will be seen in Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix, Minister Cornelius Fudge is paranoid about Dumbledore. He believes that Dumbledore wants to be Minister of Magic and has fabricated the story of Voldemort's return to undermine his authority, so he is reluctant to acknowledge the threat. One might ask why he doesn't take the word of Barty Crouch, Jr., who was part of the conspiracy to resurrect Voldemort, but in the book, Crouch received a Dementor's Kiss, destroying his soul and leaving his body a vegetable, thus in no condition to confess anything.

Tom is Lord Voldemort's real name. His full name is Tom Marvolo Riddle and "I Am Lord Voldemort" is an anagram of his full name (As revealed in Chamber of Secrets). Voldemort was a student of Dumbledore's when Voldemort attended Hogwarts. Dumbledore has always seen him as such and is resilient about referring to him as He-Who-Must-Not-Be-Named and never fears calling him Voldemort like other characters in the story. Dumbledore is also the only one Voldemort was ever afraid of.

It's an ancient, veiled archway in the Department of Mysteries in a room called: The Death Chamber, which is believed to be a gateway to the "other side". It is one of the many mysteries at the Department of Mysteries, others including a room with a pool full of brains, a room of space and planets and a room of time (a hummingbird can be seen being born and went back into the shell and reborn again and again)

The arch is also one of J.K. Rowling's many literary/philosophical references. "Passing beyond the veil" as Sirius did is a metaphor for dying.

It should be noted that in the book Sirius did not get hit by the Avada Kedavra killing curse.


The issue isn't quite addressed in the film but however is fully addressed in the book. It is revealed that Professor Umbridge sent the Dementors to attack Harry without the minister's consent in order to get him kicked out of Hogwarts as he kept insisting that Lord Voldermort had returned.

In the books, Percy Weasley had got a ministry job as assistant to Barty Crouch (in Goblet of Fire). After Crouch's demise, Percy took over for him and gained a position of trust with Cornelius Fudge. This has led to a split in the Weasley family, as Percy has blindly followed Fudge in his denial of Voldemort's return, possibly because he thinks he can use the position to help his family.

None of this is in the movies until we see Percy restraining Harry as Fudge confronts Dumbledore about the DA.

Percy is briefly seen at Harry's trial sitting below Fudge and to his left as a sort of court recorder/stenographer.

It isn't quite addressed in the film, but what is known is that Voldemort attacked Azkaban in the middle of the night. In the book however it is revealed that Voldermort took possession of the dementors therefore allowing the Death Eaters to escape in a breeze without the dementors intervening.

The Room of Requirement can be whatever the person needs, as long as the person is truly in need of it. House elves even call it the "come and go room." In the book, it is mentioned that Dumbledore used the room as a loo late one night but could not find the loo the next day, (this is said at the Yule ball in book 4) and the Weasley twins have used the room previously to hide from Filtch. It is also used by Harry in book 6.

The Room of Requirement appears only when someone is in need of it. To make it appear, one must walk past its hidden entrance three times while concentrating on what is needed. The room will then appear, outfitted with whatever is required.

In the book, the room is recommended to be used for D.A. meetings by Dobby the house elf, however in the film, the Dobby story line is not used; the viewer is shown the hidden nature of the room by accompanying Neville Longbottom to the first meeting of the DA.

Umbridge gave her Veritaserum from Snape that forced her to tell the truth. Therefore, she betrayed them against her own will. It should be noted, however, that in the book, it was not Cho that told Umbridge about D.A., but however, she does feel guilty because it is her friend Marietta Edgecombe that does tell Umbridge. She was forced to go to the D.A. meetings by Cho. However Marietta is not a character in the movie.

Tonks is a Metamorphmagus which means she can change her appearance at will. Just because her hair is purple and long in some set pictures, doesn't mean it will be for the entire movie. In trailers, clips, and promotional images her hair has been purple, pinkish-red, and white. Natalia has stated in interviews that they ultimately decided to go with purple because they had associated pink with the character Umbridge.

At a few points in the movie you can see her hair change colors (when they picked up Harry at the beginning it changed to red for a moment)

Also, the movies tend to be darker all around- in the scenery and lighting, so having her have purple hair instead of bubble gum pink is probably affected by this.

Also, at the beginning of the 5th book, her hair is violet and NOT bubblegum pink. She changed it after meeting Harry and claiming that the purple hair made her look "peaky."

Yes, in the books his eyes are green, like his mother's. But apparently, the important aspect of his eyes are that they are like his mother's, not simply the color (i.e. it's important that Harry and his mother have the same color eyes, not necessarily that Harry's eyes be green).

During the first film, Dan tried to wear green contact lenses, but his eyes could not tolerate them, so the movie makers left them as blue.

No. She will be returning to finish the series as Hermione Granger. It should also be noted that her co-stars (Daniel Radcliffe and Rupert Grint) will be reprising their respective roles of Harry Potter and Ron Weasley in the final two films.

The story of Emma leaving the fold began when she took so long to agree to the last two movies. The reason for the delay was that she needed help from Warner Brothers in scheduling filming around her attending University (Oxford?). Warners obliged. This educational dilemma is one of several ways Emma is like her character Hermione, something Emma herself has only recently admitted.

As with many of the movies, there is a longer sequence at the Dursleys, who receive multiple owl messages the night of the dementor attack. We also learn that Aunt Petunia knows more about wizarding than she has previously let on.

Much more time is spent at Grimmauld Place, where Mrs. Weasley sets the children to cleaning the place up. There is a memorable scene where Mrs. Weasley encounters a boggart, which shows her greatest fears to be her family and Harry dying horrible deaths. Ron and Hermione are notified that they will be prefects for the new school year, but Harry won't.

Also at Grimmauld Place, the students help Mrs. Weasley with cleaning to prepare it as the headquarters of the Order of the Phoenix. One of the items found during the cleaning is a locket that will play further along in the series. It will be interesting to see how they deal with this.

There is an extended sequence set at St. Mungo's Hospital where Harry and the Weasleys go to visit the injured Mr. Weasley. They accidentally encounter Gilderoy Lockhart, who is still recovering from his self inflicted memory charm (see Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets). While in his ward, they encounter Neville Longbottom and his grandmother, who are visiting Neville's parents.

The flashback of James Potter bullying Severus Snape is more detailed. Sirius Black, Remus Lupin, and Peter Pettigrew were present (one boy to the left of James resembles Sirius), and Harry's mother intervenes to stop them.

While Hagrid's return is in the film, his return to teaching is not. He tries to hold a class about Thestrals while being much interrupted and disturbed by Dolores Umbridge.

There is much more about the O.W.L.'s and how the students do on them. The students are told they have to choose a career path in order to determine which classes they need to take. Harry decides he'd like to be an Auror.

Most of the awkward romance between Harry and Cho has been omitted, including a disastrous Valentine's coffee-shop visit.

In an attempt to get the truth about Voldemort out, Harry gives an exclusive interview to Rita Skeeter, telling details of Cedric Diggory's death. (In Goblet of Fire, Skeeter had been blackmailed into silence by Hermione, who discovered she was an unregistered animagus.) The interview is published by Luna Lovegood's father in his magazine, The Quibbler.

In the scene where Fred and George leave Hogwarts before they leave, they tell Peeves (A nasty troublemaker of a poltergeist) to "Give her hell from us!" referring to Umbridge. There is also more in the book about Peeves, amongst other things, for the first time ever, working together with the students. Also McGonagall seems to favor Peeves mischief as she walks by Peeves, who is trying to unscrew a chandelier, she mutters: "It unscrews the other way."

There are two separate instances of disruptions made by the Weasley twins, to help Harry use Umbridge's fireplace for communication with the Order. In the first instance they use their own brand of fireworks and in the second one, before they are caught, they conjure a swamp in one of the corridors. They publicly take credit for the swamp, to the point of advertising their Portable Swamp, and leave the school and are thus never actually expelled.

The book has the Inquisitorial Squad in a much more prominent position. There are numerous instances of Draco Malfoy and other members abusing their powers to scare, bully and remove House Cup points from various students.

A long plot-line in the book, completely omitted in the film, concerns Quidditch. Harry's detentions get in the way of practice, Ron joins the team as Keeper, the team is nearly disbanded after an Educational Decree. Ginny joins as seeker after Harry's been banned from the game.

The DA is not betrayed by Cho Chang, but by another girl named Marietta who suffers a horrible case of acne because of a hex Hermione had placed on the sign-up sheet. Note that the other girl was invited by Cho to the DA meetings, so Cho felt guilt in any event.

The Order of the Phoenix is betrayed by Kreacher, Sirius Black's house elf, when Sirius, in a fit of anger, gives Kreacher an order that permits him to speak to Sirius' cousin, Bellatrix Lestrange.

The sequence in the Department of Mysteries is much longer. The members of the DA and Death Eaters battle and hex each other all through the different rooms of the Department. While the DA and Death Eaters are fighting in the Death Chamber, it was Neville not Lucius who drops the prophecy by accident. When Harry, Bellatrix and Voldemort are in the lobby of the Department of Mysteries Voldemort learns that the prophecy he has been after for so long has been smashed and attempts to kill Harry using the Avada Kedavra. Before the spell can reach him Dumbledore summons the golden statues, in the lobby's fountain, to life to protect Harry.

The prophecy stored at the Ministry could apply to Neville Longbottom or Harry. Dumbledore believes Voldemort chose Harry because they are both half-blood.

When it came to the prophecy, no one heard it at the department of mysteries. Harry had to find out from Dumbledore what the prophecy says, and then tells Ron and Hermione. Ginny, Luna, and Neville know nothing of what the prophecy is about. Also, it is explained that Dumbledore knows about what is said in the prophecy because he heard it predicted from Professor Trewlany. This is why she gets offered her job. It is also explained that a Death eater overheard the beginning of the prophecy, which is why Voldermort attacks Harry's parents. Although it could be that only Harry heard the prophecy because he was holding it.

Harry is much more upset after Sirius' death, to the point of angrily breaking objects in Dumbledore's office. He also has a conversation with Nearly Headless Nick, broaching the possibility of Sirius returning as a ghost. Nick explains that he and most other ghosts chose their fate because they were afraid of leaving this world. Also, the conversation after Sirius' death between Harry and Dumbledore is much longer and in depth.

Dumbledore appoints Firenze, a Centaur first seen in Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone, as Professor Trelawney's replacement for Divination. This angers the rest of the Centaurs. Further, Dumbledore rescues Umbridge from the Centaurs after he returns to Hogwarts, though we never see how.

After Lucius Malfoy and most of the other Death Eaters are captured, Draco, Crabbe, and Goyle confront Harry at Hogwarts. Harry tells them that after confronting Voldemort and the Death Eaters, he's not afraid of anything they might try.

The scene in which Harry received a two-way mirror from his godfather was omitted from the film, which could cause a significant problem later in the films.

In the book, Ron does not meet Grawp when Harry and Hermione do. He is off playing in the Quidditch final, in which he wins, and Harry and Hermione tell him about Grawp (Hagrid's full-blooded giant half brother) much later.

Sirius Black is not killed by the killing curse in the book. It does not define which cursed is use, except to say that there were red lights/sparks. The killing curse is known for having a green light. The assumption is that Avada Kadavera was used in the movie for people who do not read the book, thus saying for sure that Sirius Black is dead. Actually, the book never states that the curse that hits Sirius is red, as it says "a second jet of light hit him squarely in the chest." Therefore Sirius may have been killed by an Avada Kedavra curse (the killing curse, but this is unlikely as Harry was convinced he wasn't dead, he was just hiding behind the veil. If Harry had seen Sirius struck my the green Avada Kedavra curse, he would have known he was gone

Dumbledore is supposed to be a more quirky and benign character but is rather rough and unapproachable in the movie. It is also noticed in the beginning of the movie with how Dumbledore treats Harry in the court room. (edit - Dumbledore snubs Harry in the court for the same reason he ignores him for most of the movie, that is he is trying to distance himself from Harry because he doesn't want Voldemor,t using his connection, to realise how close they are and use their relationship against them)

It should be noted that Dumbledore never says any such line during this scene in the book and it is rare for him to respond or speak with such bite to his students. But it should also be noted that Dumbledore is being discredited by the whole wizarding world and this outburst of anger shows just how much it is getting to him, unlike in the books where he doesn't seem to mind being stripped of his order of merlin as long as they don't take him off the chocolate frog cards.

Mentrilo: When discussing Dumbledore it should also be noted that there are some people who only see the grandfatherly side of Dumbledore from the books, so think Gambon is an awful choice, that he is "too rough and unapproachable". There are those that see Dumbledore as powerful and quirky, and as a strong leader and think Gambon is perfect and Richard Harris was too weak, cold and insubstantial. Then there are those that see Dumbledore as a complex character who was not portrayed perfectly by either man, and that a combination would be needed to capture the books chracter. And most of these all tend to forget that the complex character doesn't have enough screen time in the movie, so changes are made to encapsulate the whole character in far fewer scenes.

This should be kept in mind if you are unfamiliar with the books and relying on fans' interpretations of the performance, they will be given you biased views based on their own preference. Me included, though I'm trying to keep this neutral.

Snape knew exactly what Harry meant and it is thanks to Snape that the Order shows up at the ministry. He lied to Umbridge so that he could take care of the matter without being stopped. He knew that Padfoot was Sirius's nickname as well.

It was decided that Flitwick had looked too old in the previous film and his look was changed. He is still Flitwick when he directs the choir, he just looks different, ergo the choir director is Professor Flitwick though Davis is only credited as 'Wizard' for the third film.

First of all, in the book Neville can see thestrals. This was possibly omitted in order to make the connection between Harry and Luna more profound. Also in the book it is mentioned that you don't necessarily have to be able to see the thestrals to fly on them. Ron, Hermione, and Ginny get onto them with the help of Harry, Neville and Luna, and they feel very weird while doing so, to the point that Hermione wishes that she could see them.

No they can't. In the books most of the characters were not present when Sirius fell through the veil. Harry and Neville were the only two of the teenagers in the chamber, but Neville can already see Thestrals. When asked why, he says he saw his grandfather die. But Hermione and Ginny still can't see them after in the incident at the ministry.

Harry did not see his parents' deaths, only a flash of green light. This is stated on J.K. Rowling's site. It should also be noted that Harry first sees the threstrals at the beginning of "Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix". He should have been able to see them at the end of "Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire" as he saw Cedric Diggory die before then, but J. K. Rowling explained this as Harry needed to accept that Cedric was dead before he could see thestrals. Thestrals can only be seen when the persons death "sinks in". Harry was unconscious (or nearly so) when Quirrell was killed. Albus Dumbledore came to Harry's rescue, Harry was blacking out due to the pain in his scar. He didn't "see" Professor Quirrell die then.

According to the book, Harry had the dream while he was doing the History of Magic test just before he collapsed.

In the movie it was Theory of Charms, and Prof Umbridge seemed to be just guarding the exam.

In the book there are also practical test which were never mentioned in the movie.

Since there was an absense of Quiddich in the movie, the movie doesn't show how Harry and George beat up Malfoy at the end of a match between Gryffindor and Slytherin (which Gryffindor won) when Malfoy insulted both of them "over the limit". After that scandal, Umbridge bans Harry, George, (and reluctantly Fred because he was "about to hurt Malfoy") for life and takes away their brooms, so Harry had nothing to fly on when he was going to the ministry to save Sirius.
