Liquid Luck | Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince 

Yeah and Harry doesn’t get enough credit for it hahaha very underrated Harry moment!

Placebo, love it

plot twist/spoiler alert: harry never drank felix felicis either. harry wasn't given any felix felicis. plot twist/spoiler alert: there's no such thing as felix felicis. all your strength/arrogance was in you the whole time (strength if you did something good after felix felicis and arrogance if you did those moral hazard risk whatever things instead)

@@nicbentulan that would be quite a good plot twist

@@nicbentulan Lmao, slughorn just gave harry a vile of water

@Alexander Leblanc her uniqueness and open-mindedness makes her more of a Ravenclaw

She wears that hat when gryffindor plays against hufflepuff or slytherin. And she wears a raven/eagle hat when Ravenclaw plays.

@Alexander Leblanc then the question is which trait does she value the most? The answer to that will clear all this up. (Insert Dumbledore's quote about choices and abilities)

It was Slytherin vs Gryffindor game, so it makes sense

Spryzen isnt it gryffondor? or am i just dumb :l

Her friends are Gryphs and Ravenclaw isn't playing, so why not? She's a great friend!

Her friends are in gryffs obviously she would support them

As long as slytherin don’t win I cheer for them all 😂

😍😍😍😍😍😘😘😘🥇🥇🥇🥳🎁🎁📱🎧

I would like to think that ravenclaw's team is bad and rebuilding that students of the house just supports whoever they want

Thats cute, Im glad for Ron, is one of my favourite characters 😊

And both Fred and George were beaters.

He also saw himself as team captain. But at this level, he completely fulfilled his wish.

Lol, Ron wanted to be Quidditch captain, while Harry wanted to be a prefect. In the end, they got each other's dream roles.

@@khorkienjoo5292 Huh? Harry wanted to have a family

Ron just needed to believe i himself

He just needed motivation.

It's official, Gryffindor is unstoppable! Harry is the best Seeker and Ron is the best Keeper!

Amy Siriouthai Well yes, but actually no.

Yass queen

2 Slytherins to be exact

Wan Luqman 4 defenders - 2 at 2:35, 2 at 2:40

this is why she’s in the Holyhead Harpies

Fr she was a beast such savagery on such a small body I was like damn

Luna is a natural seer i believe so she totally could have had a vision or something of Harry's plan and helped

she probably saw it was in his hand n played along when he handed the cup over so best wing woman is my vote

Maybe he just faked it.

There's no fooling Luna. She's extremely wise and clever. She definitely knew right away and decided to support the idea.

In the book it was Hermione who saw it.

He was also a good homie to Hermione because after this he went and comforted her

Dont forget Luna as his Wing-woman on that one as well. She definitely knew he didn't pour it.

@@Mysterio1412Yes she seems deliberate in saying “why did you put something in his drink?” I love Harry’s proud look when he tells Hermione about his trick. He was always knew that Ron has that in him he just needs a little push.

poor draco

🥵😔

Valeri Ivanova That’s probably because of all the Death Eater business going on.

Half-Blood Prince is by far my favorite film. All the characters are changing, developing and a lot is going on. And I very much like the way Draco is portrayed in that film. I do however agree that, objectively speaking, Order of the Phoenix or Prisoner of Azkaban take the spot of best film of the franchise, and I love those two very much as well. Half-Blood Prince is just my favorite, is all. I also recognize that the film has many flaws, like the Lavender problem for example. In the book, Ron has reason to believe that Hermione doesn't like him, but probably fancies Harry. So Ron starts to lose hope that he'll ever be with her. And then Ron thinks she kissed Victor Krum, which puts the nail in the coffin. Ron's worst fear coming true. Ron's thinking in the book; "She's kissed Victor, famous Quidditch player, and now likes Harry Potter, the chosen one. How could I, Ron Weasley, live up to that?" In the movie however, Hermione drops many hints that she likes Ron, and they never really fight before the Quidditch match, which is why Ron should technically have no reason *to* kiss Lavender. But nonetheless, still my favorite film.

@@ronweasley3409 same!! Idk there's just something about it, although like you said, phoenix or azkaban takes the spot as the best film, but honestly, if they had included voldemort's past and memories that were in the book and just did a proper job adapting the book to the film and added like 20 or 30 mins, this movie would have been at a different level and would be many people's favourite.

A genius move Harry made on this one. All for his dear pal Ron.

Ah, but it was actually Luna the master mind behind the trick. She has the power to manipulate anyone

IronMan93 antechvia onte coriettri moiq Ron dosertac Hermione ar Harry lerttro.

For a world which is abundant with magic spells, I love those little moments where they aren't needed!

@@bowmaj8666 Science!

Yeah but Hermione also cheated for Ron quite literally with her spell during practice

@@TimaeusEXE that’s not what she’s upset about. At that point in the scene she realizes Harry never cheated and just made Ron believe he was lucky. The reason she’s upset there is because she likes Ron so while Harry was happy that his mate got a kiss, he then noticed Hermoine being jealous and upset so went to comfort her

It's funny cause the Actress hated kissing Ron lol

@@exotixzamateurva8957 they both hated it they knew eachother since they were like 10 lol

L

And before 1:24 when harry didnt just slip the bottle in his pocket but raised it a bit so everyone could notice

Actually I'd say half the credit of that moment go to the screenwriter who didn't let him say anything there but show her the bottle and nod instead.

Did your crush run off with someone else too?

Did you know in this movie Daniel Radcliffe thought this was his worst movie acting performance

Absolutely obsessed, I love this scene so much

Lunahatic

Weird considering she’s house ravenclaw

Omg yes I love it

I would totally buy it

She's a Ravenclaw, why does she sit on the Gryffindor stands XD

Jovalin I was about to say that too! Harry little sneaky boy

Exactly

i like it!

He's like, you aren't the only smart one Hermione

I would be extremely smug too

He really didn't tho😂

The movies did her dirty in regards to her mad skills both on and off the field.

I KNOW RIGHT!? BUT DID YOU SEE HER JUST DOWN FOUR PEOPLE😆🌷🤯

Hollyhead harpies ace

@@finnheisenheim8274 CAN'T DISAGREE WITH THAT

@@maltipoo6741 They kind of allude to her skills by making her Harry’s right hand woman in the tryout scene.

Which is one of the reasons why Daniel Radcliffe loved this movie. He HATED Quidditch so much, because it was a pain to film it. But for this particular movie, other characters had to endure it.

Even Ginny got a chance to shine as a Chaser

Harry is beside Ron at 2:26

Otto Karl he was drunk in almost all of the scenes he filmed for hbp

Hm..

In the books Ginny actually calls Ron a hypocrite.

In the books, Ron just date Lavender because Ginny calls him an jealous bratty child who never kiss a girl.

@@JSmellerM And Harry thinks that both Ron and Hermione are complete morons during this year.

@@varric I read the books multiple times. I'm just referring to the part mentioned above where Ron behaves like a hypocrite but only gets called that in the books.

Hey after his 2nd Year How can he Not Be Overprotective?

Charlie never played quiddditch

​@@alexanderroger-kim8435whaaat? I thought he was Captain as well as Seeker in his time at Hogwarts

@@alexanderroger-kim8435 Charlie played. he was why gryffindor was without at seeker in harrys first year. he gtraduted the year before philosophers stone

@@alexanderroger-kim8435He played and is real good. Perhaps the best among the Weasleys. People say he could have played for England if he didn’t choose to work with dragons instead

Joseph Icha A. Say this book. The movie isn’t the original and never will be. B. Nah, Ron was always behind them both. C. Harry only really got smarter in potions, and that’s because of the princes’ book.

Rosebby prince not princess

Ben Ross I don’t write princess. I wrote princes’. It’s possession grammar. If you said prince’s book, that would mean “Prince is book” but if you said princes’ book, it would mean “the prince is book”

TheDevious so it’s written as “the prince is book”?

​@@buckleys1729 apostrophes can be used as a possessive or as a contraction. The position of the apostrophe depends on whether it is a singular or plural form of a word. In this case, "prince's" can only be used as a possessive for a singular form of a word. "Princes'" is a possessive for a plural. I can’t believe I’m teaching someone 5th grade grammar on a Harry Potter movie clip video .

I wish they put it in the movies. They put it in the video games, though. Love how annoyed game's Ron when I walked pass by a Slytherin with him in OotP game because Slytherins sang their version of Weasley's Our King. Then in the HBP game, Ron became really proud when I walk pass by a fellow Gryffindor with him because Griffindors sang their version of Weasley's Our King.

@@P.Whitestrake Rupert Grint was upset about that being cut from Order of the Phoenix as well.

That should have been in the movie.

@@P.Whitestrake which game?

“He’ll make sure we win”

Wow good eye, I just thought it said gyrfindoor

he just needed a little motivation

And some self confidence

He outsmarts her several times in this film, which I enjoyed seeing even though I really like Hermione. He outsmarts her at the beginning when using the Half-Blood Prince's textbook to win the luck potion, then when he reveals to her he did not add the luck potion to Ron's cup, and then when he uses the luck potion and ignores her "plan." There are others more subtle but I can't remember right now.

@@barchetta575m so instead of adding the luck potion, he adds a love potion??

Yeah they made Harry look really smart in this movie, compared to the other ones. He usually blunders around for a bit until he figures something out.

@@lprules619 he didn't add a love potion

@@AdeptKing Harry is shown to be smart in the books, not at Hermione's level but still passing his final exams when not passing out. However they don't put that part of him on a spotlight since it's not his main trait, it's Hermione's

Weasel Gaming I see nothing

The actor himself said number 6 was his worst performance

@@182Stanny so what?

@@abrahajil4176 well he can't of gotten better that much if he hated his performance

@@182Stanny he said it was his worst one... But honestly he nailed it. He stated that te had problems with alcohol in that period, so he probably just tought everything he did then was bad, including his performance. I personally think it had no dark spots in itself

I’ve said this to Come and See every time it takes on Woody. I tell Come and See “I hope you win!” and the movie won because of my love for it. No one messes with Come and See (1985)!

It was the last one so it was good to leave on a high note.

yeah me too i notice it blink few times....now i want that hat

It actually roars everytime Gryffindor scores

ThePyro721 they do? Wow

OMG!! I just noticed that too!

Where I don't see it

Wasn't the Weasley song in the fifth book, not sixth?

5 has the slytherin mock version, 6 has the gryffindors create their own text to that song praising Ron Weasley.

​@@alexandererhard2516 Gryffindor's version was on the last match in the 5th book.

@@CYbeRuKRaINiaN I think it shows up again in the 6th book, either during this match, or the one after where Ron and Ginny carry the team while Harry is in detention. I wish they showed that in the movies, it would've been cool to give the Weasleys a match of their own, one where Ron and Hermione are able to celebrate together(they had gotten over their argument by this point and get together soon after) and the whole start of the Ginny and Harry thing when he comes to the common room after the match.

Being happy for a friend is one of the best feelings in the world

Harry is a sweetheart to Ron honestly

Well yes and no. He had faith because when he whenever he went to the Burrow he would play quidditch with the Weasley family where Ron didn’t have the pressure of being watched by outsiders. So Harry knew he was good, just that he was unconfident under pressure.

Adding 1 more upvote to this to make it your 1k. Remark aside, I do love this part, as it does justify Harry's means to end (though it's feigned).

I love how Luna gave him the idea to do what he did though, trick Ron to give him a pre-game confidence boost.

:3

he’s like: I’m a genius

@@DoctorWhoKage If you watch 1:09, you'll notice the flask Glint, hinting that Harry was thinking about tricking Ron from the start, and Luna, completely oblivious of his intention, unintentionally ratted him out about the Liquid Luck

Their friendship is best shown in this movie since they never once fight or get into an argument with each other. They act like really close friends throughout and we see scenes where they just hang out together.

@@No-Name0087 huh? they get into a fight in goblet of fire and deathy hallows

@@gatzuuu I was talking about this movie. They never argued in this movie.

@@No-Name0087 oh my b misread

Yeah

Books even more so

@@noisemarine561 the films left so much out of Ron

He's a grower

He'd be on another level if he didn't have such an inferiority complex

budding pottah

Ditto0415 I think anyone(who’s not in Slytherin)would. As the Slytherins at the time were nothing but greedy cheating dark wizards.

A lot of the ravenclaws and hufflepuffs is like actually root for Gryffindor when they played against slytherin it was very common not just a weird Luna thing. Just because slytherin was known for being very pompous and winning too much especially through dirty tactics they were pretty disliked. Though I suppose the hat made it a bit overboard.

They’re just anti-Slytherin. My school’s rugby team always gets support from other schools when we play the rich kids.

@@caleblim6890 I think its more than that. I dont think Luna has many friends in Ravenclaw. Ginny and Neville are certainly her best friends and they're in gryffindor. It makes sense for her to be rooting for them, even if theyre playing hufflepuff.

You can see Cho is among the audience cheering for Ron as well

For some reason I always thought hermione said “go drink it Ron!”

I can't believe she didn't notice that harry didn't actually put potion of luck on that drink. Lol

Yeah but the way Denzil Washington says it

It's triangle love and Ron at the center😭

@@dragonrider1736 he never did after the game harry told hermione he never put it in his drink.

It does

0:17 I just noticed all of the slytherins are making fun of Ron and then there is Draco... Sitting alone looking absolutely depressed 😭😭

Yes

@@vinesawalish4319 shutup that had nothing to with this comment

I was 4 or 5 when Harry Potter 1 was released. It's was a fun film to us kids that day and years go by and more Harry Potter films were made it was not a fun film anymore it became sad and depressing.

I think everyone would like to have Harry as a friend!

That’s such a nice Touch to the movies. I can’t believe I never noticed

@@atreyeechoudhury5715 that was very touching the first time i see it. On the books Ginny know very well hermione’s feelings... But in the movies this detail is not considered ...

And we can see how she despises Lavender.

@@Valentina-kr5jv The movies didn't do Ginny justice, to be honest. As much as I like them all, the movies really pushed Ginny back to a background character & the hero's love interest. She was so much more upfront & shined in the 5th & 6th books.

@@P.Whitestrake yes...but not just her. Ronald, Hermione!!! They’re different in the books... Ronald is very clever, Hermione is not TOO MUCH PERFECT like we see in the films. THE BOOKS are the REAL Harry Potter...The films are...good. But they will be never better than books.

He's good but a little self reserved as a captain. He needs to be more strict

@@matthewquach2705 I noticed that, too. Especially in that scene where he was holding tryouts for the Gryffindor team. Everyone was talking over him, and ultimately Ginny had more pull there, quieting them down with a simple "SHUT IT!"

@@movinitlikedat45 i hope i don't come across as snobbish but book harry didn't let people walk over him like that. he even shouted himself hoarse during the tryouts because 3/4 of the people who applied are less than qualified to play quidditch (heck, even there were hufflepuffs who queued) the movies really downplayed harry's aggressiveness and arrogancy, instead portraying him as some goody-two shoes (when he is very much not).

@@matthewquach2705 in the movies he wasn’t, but in the books he was. They just didn’t show everything that happened during tryouts.

@@09dindaayularasati65 I wouldn't call him arrogant in the books, he just got more confident as he grew up - unlike the film version, with people joking how he's bullied in his own franchise. I agree with the rest of your comment though.

You know that's not a coincidence right. It's called editing to score, it's a very common thing

@@noahjessup9342 Sure ! I'm just poiting out it's remarquably well done in this scene ! ;)

@@kresji6873 that's Slytherin since their quidditch uniforms are green-

@@flakyflakes3298 thats not what i read on book

@@kresji6873 well, the movies did change things up a bit from the books for example Ginny was supposed to be a confident girl around her friends but they changed her in the movies. There are a few things that were changed in the movies so I think they changed this scene too

Yes I notice Slytherins tactic was bold but overly confident, Gryffindor was more cautious but courageous.

Right? Up until this film, I couldn't care less of what happened to Draco. However, this one really makes you feel for him. He doesn't want to be in his position, but has no choice since his family put him in that spot.

Huh, where are his two buds?

@@mlo009 well crabbe and goyle are sitting to his left, but i don't think draco wanted to sit with them or they didn't want to sit with him. near these movies, draco most likely isolated himself from everyone.

Absolute Trash Hermione is supposed to be bossy and annoying in the books tho

Yes, but she is just bossy and annoying in the midfilms:P At least almost. The big problem is really that she's overacting. She was great in 1 and 2, then she slipped a bit in three and four.. and five I can't remember. But here she has that balance I think.

In the book, Gryffindor loses the match because of McLaggen. He replaced Ron against Hufflepuff when the latter was poisoned.

She's fine, Ginny is always a star in the team. This is the first time Ron got some shine.

@@mlo009 true, even in the order of the Phoenix she was pretty solid. Ron was a shitshow from his tryouts in the ootp to that game.
