No videos since this one?? I really like the way you get deep into the topic

I don't think it ever said Slughorn came back with other Slytherins. Slughorn did come back to fight. He was one of the last duelers and was fighting Voldemort. I think the thought of other Slytherins coming back comes from Phineas Nigellas saying, "And let it be known that Slytherin House played its part! Let our contribution not be forgotten!" I just assumed he meant Snape and Slughorn. Voldemort says to Lucius when he wants to look for Draco, that if Draco is dead it's his own fault since he didn't come to Voldemort like the other Slytherins. Only the 7th years would have been allowed to stay and fight and none of the Slytherins in Harry's year would have fought alongside Harry

It’s difficult to listen to your decidedly unserious voice tone.

A theory you aren’t considering is that what if all Slytherins secretly want Voldemort back, and that this is the criteria for being selected. When Harry was selected at Hogwarts, when he was saying not slytherin, this could have been a subconscious rejection of the wizarding world. Whereas a Slytherin would be more inclined to reject the Muggle world, and the other houses Ravenclaw and Hufflepuff are largely apolitical.

come back please ur videos are my bread & butter 😢

Hey, I know this video is old and I know I've watched it several times before. But I finally looked up when did Snape become a spy and what that entails. Because I fall on the camp that Snape was a bitter and terrible guy that couldn't get over being rejected. He never expressed regret over the harm he done as a death eater nor for being the reason James also died and Harry becoming an orphan. He only regretted that Lilly died. He bullied children for no reason (I know of the headcannon he was keeping up appearances, but that could swing the other way around. He could treat all students with indifference and just favor the slitherings, revealing to them that he was forced to not be racist because of Dumbledore or whatever), he went after Lupin and Sirius in the shrieking shack out of revenge, even after all these years of suffering they endured (which were worse than his)... All he did as redemption was being a spy, like was said in the video, but he wasn't a spy for 16 years. He became an informant after talking to Dumbledore, so sure, he was a spy before Voldemort's fall, but only for a little while. After the war ended, he became an informant, but that's it, which any other death eater could've become out of fear or regret. And only after Voldemort returned that he was at risk of being found out. I'm not diminishing the importance of what he did, but his redemption was being useful for some 4 years and loving a dead woman. Not enough to make him one of the people Harry names his children after Also, naming your children after people is never a good idea when you have at least 20 options but not 20 children

The scene she is referring to was when slug horn comes back with the people in the village not with slither in but with the people in the village also, where are you? Please come back we miss you.

Perhaps if your fun magic school even has the option to sort eleven year old children into the *wizardHitler dormitory* that is indictive of a profoundly thoughtless worldbuilding and not the kind of thing that you can brush under the rug and retcon a decade later in a podcast. Something like that could be (should be) a vital plot point of the series if handled better and if JKR had written that theme with any meaningful intent. It really feels like any poignancy in her writing was an accident, like she stumbled upon a nugget of something profound while panning for gold in mud.

I keep thinking this is Umbrella Corp from Resident Evil

I only watched Fantastic Beasts, and I think they dealt with diversity a bit better.

I have no idea why Percy Weasley wasn't sorted into Slytherin

In my opinion, the best way to rehabilitate Slytherin is to have Ginny end up there. She certainly fulfills the characteristics of Slytherin, and while her brothers are all Gryffindors, Parvati and Padma are in different houses despite being twins, so there's precedent for that.

Im not gonna try and excuse what are objective faults in the writing if slytherin characters but one thing that doesnt seem to get brought up here is that people are often products of their environment, beholden to the specific etiquettes and expectations of their peers.

Same reason conservatives do I reckon.

People remake movies and videogames all the time, is harry potter where we start the conversation about remaking books and fixing shit? I mean Harry Potter is in the process of being remade into a tv show right now.

That bit at 40:18 where she makes up a part of the book to make herself feel better is like, the next step up from "Dumbledore was gay all along". Just... I don't know. So perfect somehow?? Like she can't settle with making stuff up that no one can verify. She'd moved on to just making stuff up that's verifiably not true about Her Own Work so she doesn't have to self reflect or something?!?!???

You have raised the bar so high for my critics of bad media, that I cannot enjoy anyone talking into a camera for 40 minutes going "Super-omega-yikers" about a book, movie, tv show, comic, etc. I love you so much and if you ever do any more critical reviews of subpar/trashy media I will be waiting in the rain with a peony bouquet

the four hagwarts houses: Brave Evil Smart Loyal

this is a wonderful video

ENHANCIO ALGORITHMIO!

It's a testament to this channel that this video came out 3 years ago am I still periodically come to check and see if there's a new upload I missed

Come back to us

Dumbledore: "I think we Sort too soon." Dude... why are you Sorting *at all*?

Students start at Hogwarts at age 10. At best, they get the 5 first years of muggle education (you bet Malfoy didn't). Social Studies is not a subject at Hogwarts (and it shows).

Ah, my favorite genre of movie: Statuatory

It's not like the Slytherin is the source of society's problems, the other way around - it's existence is a result of how larger wizard society thinks. Do you expect that families like Blacks or Malfoys will be ok with their children living in one dorm with "mudbloods"? How would they react to the notion of dismantling or reforming their alma mater? Ex Slytherins are powerful people, some of them are on the School's Board of Governors, which at one point was completely in Malfoy's palm. Reforming Slythering is impossible until whole society changes

People act like slytherin is so unrealistic but my uni has one frat that’s been known to spike girls’ drinks since like the 70s. So maybe slytherin is not that wild of a thing.

What are the names of the songs playing in the background during the video?

For me the main problem is that she tought at the begining to put a house of the bullies/popular kids that are always represented in media. Like the stereotype of the high school football player if you will. But then she started to put every single character that was mean in slythering. But the worse comes now: at the sixth book she was tired of the whole why is slythering evil media so she tried to put a "redemption" writing Slughorn. To show that Draco didn't really want to work for the deatheaters. And decided to redempt Snape. But it was too late. You can't unwrite the abuse Snape put the kids through. It was bulling and all the things that redempt Snape before the sixth book are from the movie. I love Alan Rickman's Snape and I can understand why Harry would forgive him, I do too. But nook Snape is just too much, he doesn't remotly care. To me the end didn't change how I fell about him.

It must take some serious audacity to call Jaiden Animations the laziest channel on UA-cam when there are more shorts that are just a reupload of a viral video with a monotonous voiceover describing what's happening on screen than there are people on the planet

LMAO I still say Ginny give Harry a love potion haha

You have an uploaded a video in 2 years. When are you going to upload again?

Wait...people liked Ron? I read the first 3 books without seeing the movies and while I don't dislike Ron, he always felt barely above a background character to me. He got better around book 4 or 5, but Hermione seemed like easily the best character in the first 3 books, besides Harry of course.

Look, I love the books, and don't hate the movies. Stop... analysing.

Like with all problems with Rowling and her work, this stems from her neo liberal politics. Neo liberals, liberals, and moderates all suffer from the delusion that it's better to coddle nazis than work with progressives. The idea that society would ever do anything to limit the ability of fascists to gather and consolidate their power is so abhorrent to neo liberals that it makes perfect sense the evil kids would get their own clubhouse and not immediate expulsion.

To be fair, it's like having four cliques in any normal school. You've got the geeks, you've got the jocks, you've got the nerds. And then you've got the neonazis. Obviously.

Rewatching after what happened with ilymation. One of the nicest animators on the platform got doxxed bc a so-called “intellectual critic” willingly misinterpreted a piece of health advice she gave, and it feels like the Internet is siding with the critic just bc they thought ilymation was annoying when she tried to ask her fans for help. This video needs to be required viewing for everyone on the internet, because we clearly haven’t learned anything from the last time we treated people like this.

Do you think maybe they just can't stand the idea of someone else being successful for being happy instead of cynical and angy.

There's not a lot of explicit sexism in these videos... but these dudes all definitely hate women.

I'm all for criticism but there's no value in going into something you have no interest in and criticizing it. If I hate pie I'm not gonna be a judge in a pie baking contest... unless of course I feel smug and superior telling everyone how bad their pies are. I honestly think a lot of people form all of their beliefs around whatever they feel makes them the most objectively correct in any hypothetical situation but there's so many aspects of life where objectivity just does not exist.

I wanna hear these absolute Sigma's do a 3 hour criticism of how an 8 year old's Lemonade Stand is a pathetic sham of a business and people are only buying it out of pity.

God it's painful how pathetic some of these "critics" sound. Just so out of touch from everything.

Please come back I need the other parts of this.

7:41 This scene is peak cinematic cringe and they had to know that while shooting it

I mean British parliament all hate their citizens and all know each other from school so maybe Rowling wasn’t far off ? 🤷🏾‍♂️

Honestly I love the fact that now the JK rowling blinkers are off there's all this discourse actually recognising she's a bang average writer at best, and even that's being kind.

26:39 oh my god dude really? How smug do you have to be to say “You have a degree do better art to me or you’re failing your professors”

Maybe when Joanne finally croaks someone more sensible can rewrite this mess into something more coherent

When Ron has conflicts with other characters, you have to look at the broader context and not just take the argument in isolation. Ron's brief conflict with Harry in book 4 comes about because he and Harry actually were fantasizing about entering the tournament. He didn't know that Harry had privately decided it wasn't something he wanted. Ron's conflict with Hermione in book 6 comes about because Hermione has been refusing to tell him what's going on between her and Viktor for the last two books. She could have prevented the fight by just telling him straight up that she and Viktor were broken up and were just pen pals now, but instead she got pissy with Ron every time he tried to get to the bottom of it. Ron ended up getting the incomplete story from Ginny, which causes him to decide to go for Lavender because he thinks Hermione isn't available and she's just been giving him false hope. The conflict in book 7 that led to him storming out was caused by a number of factors, the most major being Harry's stubbornness, hot-headedness, and inability to take criticism without being nasty. Other factors include the ones in this video (the injury, the influence of the locket, whispered conversations with Hermione about their concerns, and prolonged hunger), but there's another piece most overlook - Ron's concern that Harry is toying with Ginny. It's shown early in book 7 that Ron doesn't approve of Harry's decisions in regards to his sister, and the argument in the tent comes about after Harry expresses a lack of concern for Ginny being sent into the forbidden forest. Harry thinks she's tough and can handle it (that's why he loves her), but to Ron, that's his baby sister. He gets upset because Harry seems to be showing a callous disregard for her well-being, which is something Ron feels he has been doing for a while. That's what starts the fight. Another thing to note - Ron is one of those people who argues to solve problems. Harry is one of those people who gets angry and defensive when argued with. The main reason that fight ends so badly is because Ron is attacking the problems they're having, and Harry is makimg it personal and attacking Ron. Harry's bad temper and poor conflict resolution skills are just as big of a problem as Ron's insecurity and resentment.

That Ginny video has been cooking a long time
