As you can see from the intro, this was the most requested video I've had in a long time😅, so I of course had to make it for you guys. Please enjoy! Also the reason why this comment is from 2 days ago is because my patrons saw it early
15:30 “So Andromeda is officially banned from the family just like she was in the books, she’s now free to live a happy life and marry Ted Tonks- Well happy until he dies- And her daughter dies- And she’s left to raise her grandson- Wow she does not have a happy ending” 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Wow! I was not expecting this! Thank you so much for your critique and amazing feedback! It was so satisfying watching you figure out why I wrote certain things! And also thank you so much for the positive comments about my acting, writing and wardrobe 🥺🥺(low budget means you take on multiple roles lmao) I’ll definitely get the rest of our team to watch this too, we have plans to create more things in the future and this was so valuable! ✨✨ P.S yes that was Vegard! He also played a death eater holding me in the Voldemort scene!
Their mother mistaking Andromeda for Bellatrix is actually correct to the books. Harry got upset when he saw Andromeda in the seventh HP book because he though she was Bellatrix. I’ve always loved that detail.
I liked the way Andromeda was the most enthusiastic, when Bellatrix asked them, if they wanted to meet Voldemort, and when she actually saw him, she became disapproving, because Andromeda saw who Voldemort really was.
I liked that they said her reasoning to be knowledge she says “if there was new magic being learned im there” or something similiar instead of it being her believing in the pureblood mania
So, Andromeda was excited to see new magic, NOT voldemort, she lived her sisters and was interested in power, she was ambitious, thats why she came into Slytherin, but as soon she comes in by the dark lird and sees how bad he is, she is a bit of scared. I think thats why she changed her emotion so fast
Book fact: The first time Harry met Andromeda, he shouted at her because he mistook her for Bellatrix. Then she walked into the room (she'd been stood in the doorway) and is described as having lighter hair and a kinder face. She probably only looked nicer because her sister was thin and pale from Askaban, meaning in the past they looked even more similar.
I think the reason they showed Andromada wanting to go see Voldemort is because she didn't know what she was getting into. I don't think that any of them did really.
I believe the idea here that we wanted to convey way (I just shot and codirected it, didn’t write) was that they were all excited, similar and meeting Voldermort kinda changes all their paths and sets them on their inevitable destiny. Andromeda meeting him is terrified and now wants nothing to do with him. Bellatrix gets excited and develops love for him. Narcissa, is a true neutral, torn between her two sisters
Thank you so much for your kind words on our film! Thank you for the positive comments on Kelsey's acting and writing in particular, I too thought she did an incredible job. I'm Petros by the way, the Co-Director, Director of Photography , Lead VFX, Editor and Producer - yeah, as Kelsey said, we all took on a lot of roles haha! I'm very happy to hear you watched the film and enjoyed it, even the "negatives" that were my own work because you can't get better without critique. 💙💙💙
When i first watched this, I was also confused why Andromeda was so eager towards the darks arts, but the more i thought about it, it actually does make sense. That was how she was raised so naturally thats how she leaned, and it wasnt until she actually experienced the true horrors that came with following the dark that she decided on her own to take another path.
"Just casually practising the killing curse, no big deal" Me: "Ahh yes, "Did you put your name in the goblet of fire Harry?" Dumbledore asked, "calmly". These things must be nothing, right
"She is now free to have a happy life and marry ted tonks, well until he died then her daughter died then she left to raise her grandson, wow she does not have a happy ending"
You should watch “mischief managed”. It’s a marauders fan film it was actually shot at Oxford. Or you should watch “Neville Longbottom and the black which”. Both I think are really good.
Tbh I think the reason Narcissa turned on Andromada wasn't because she was engaged to a muggle born. I think it was because Andromada didn't tell her that she was engaged. She talked about their bond for most of the film, yet her sister didn't trust her to tell her.
Hermione: N.E.W.T.s Ron and Harry: newts I'd say the abbreviation is correct but I take the "newts" as just slang or just improper but there shouldn't be any backlash for it. In all honestly I don't have the time to say N.E.W.T.s or O.W.L.s
idk if it's technically canon since I'm not sure whether or not it's in the books (can't remember), but in the movies, Umbridge introduces the O.W.L.s as "ordinary wizarding levels, O, W, Ls, otherwise known as owls" or something like that
If you watch closely of Bellatrix licking her arm, she was actually drinking her own blook and saying "pure!". this was great writing, the producer clearly shows how much it meant for Bellatrix, or the Black family that pure blood is the most important thing
Here’s a theory on how the Marauders knew what the common rooms looked like: They used James’s invisibility cloak, followed a student from a certain house to that house’s common room and went in the common room and found out what it looked like
Or they could just have sent Peter in to snoop around in his animagus form, because who really notices a rat? This film doesn't ring true about Sirius. By this time he was not with his own family, or at least he would not have been calm about attending a family wedding and interacting amicably with Bellatrix. And he definitely wouldn't have shown the Marauders' Map around, since it was such a secret among himself, James, Remus, and Peter. If they wanted to include one of the Black brothers, it should have been Regulus.
@@Shan_Dalamani the problem is that they cast Sirius as a lot older than he was. Bellatrix is actually eight, almost nine years older than Sirius; he was still with his family at the time but he was like 11, not in his late teens. Regulus would have been a little little kid at the time so he wouldn't have had anything to do with it.
@@mary-catherinecroshaw6369 Neither this fan film nor the movies cast the Marauders according to the ages they were supposed to be. I loved Gary Oldman's portrayal, but he and the others were definitely too old to be the characters as described in the novels. The problem was that they needed actors in the same age range as Alan Rickman, or it would have been too weird, having Snape be 15 years older than his classmates.
@@Shan_Dalamani in the movies it doesn't bother me so much because at least they're adults. Sirius in particular could have aged quickly due to being in Azkaban. But seeing someone who is clearly like 22 years old playing a character who should be 11 or 12 is irritating. I also don't think they were working on the Marauder's Map in their first year; I don't think the creators of this film verified the age gap between him and the girls.
I actually read the music box's playing at the end as showing Narcissa's love for her sisters since it started playing when she promised Bellatrix that she'd destroy the pensive. I saw the pensive as a symbol of Bellatrix's torture at the hands of her father. She'd have to use it every night to make sure another memory wasn't stolen from her. In the end, Narcissa destroying it would mean that instead of Bellatrix relearning what she did or who she was, she was free to be herself (even if it was a monster) just like Andromeda was. Because as we saw in the seventh book, family was the most important thing to Narcissa.
Sirius was the last Black in name. Sirius was the last male Black. Since he never had any kids and by extension no male kids to continue on the Black name the Black family is extinct in the male line
Since U said at the end “And there she goes to torture the Longbottoms” U definitely should watch Neville Longbottom and The Black Witch [An Unofficial Fan Film]
I like the switch between Andromeda and Narcissa, I think it shows character development, a good person is not good because they always were but because they chose to be, same with bad.
Voldemort's design in this isn't that far from how I imagined him before his first defeat. He still looks human, but he's well on his way to become the creepy, snake- like creature we all know. While I agree the effects on the Cruciatus curse were unnecessary, they kinda fit with the way the spell is supposed to feel like: an electrocution.
I feel like Andromeda wanting to see the Dark Lord was more to please her sisters and try to fit in with them, since he's the all powerful "pure blood" but since she's forcing herself to act like she's enthusiastic about it she then reveals her thinking through facial expressions.
Don't think Narcissa's hesitancy at meeting voldemort is out of character. She always Seneca set in her beliefs, just not fully committed to voldemort, to me in the movies at least. She puts her family (loved ones) before him and never officially joins the death eaters. She realizes already it's a dangerous and unpredictable scenarios for her sisters to be partaking in, regardless of if she believes muggle born are inferior.
@@jiannacabarse5169 my guess: the movie takes a wide shot to explain Delphini here; Bellatrix's daughter is canon by now and fanfiction cannot tamper with Rowling. so it has to be mentioned Bellatrix was in love indeed or at least in weird obsession.
11:37 I'm really late and I think you probably already know this but Vegard also played a death eater who was meant to hold one of the black sisters when they meet Voldemort😂😁
Morgan, I looked a bit into the film a few days ago because it’s probably my favorite fan film. The reason I’m pretty sure why Andromeda was more on the dark side at the beginning was because obviously she’s part of the black family which is a reasonably dark family. When Andromeda was younger, she cared mostly about making her family proud and originally marrying pure blood. After the weird sisters gig though, she realized that she was deeply in love with Ted and changed her mind completely. Her beliefs changed and later she even abandoned her family to be with him.
I think the reason Andromeda is so eager to see Voldemort is because she also asks, ‘is there new magic?’, so I think for her it’s more of a way to learn new magic, which would be helpful to know in order to become an Auror. Also, we constantly see the Malfoys wishing they didn’t have to serve Voldemort, so it would make since that Narcissa would hang back and not express too much interest.
The idea that Andromeda helped with the map is cute but I think that Peter was a big part in figuring out the proper layout of everything because of his animagous form. There's no way Sirius would be walking around with the map in the open.
You know I never thought Andromeda was in the dark at the end, I think she started out that way but slowly realized that what her sister was doing was the wrong thing.
I really liked this fan film overall. I feel like some of the story got jumbled up at parts and was hard to follow, sometimes. But, I loved the overall concept and the effects. The set design was also really creative. Also: Kelsey promoted the crap out of the film when it came out. She vlogged bts of the whole thing and did many q&as. From my PR expertise (almost a bachelors), she did outstanding with pushing this project.
I think with the scene where Bellatrix brings her sister to her dark lord, i understand that Andromeda is interested in seeing the "new type of magic" as I see her curious to see what is out there at a young age but she isn't that blinded by it like Bellatrix. Meanwhile Narcissa is hesitant because I don't think she is really interested in it that much. She likes the status but I think she just wants to keep up with her sisters and keep the family in tact
The first time you watch this fan film is for curiosity. The next time you watch it is for the actress playing Bellatrix. She just really captured that beautiful, yet skill crawling terror that Helana Bonham Carter created.
Hey Morgan Yet another awesome Harry Potter fan film review. I really enjoyed it! Something I always enjoy about your content is you pull no punches in your criticism but it does not detract from your enjoyment of a thing or from your praise of it.. Also you balance your criticism really well with what your compliment which I really respect. Looking forward to more Harry Potter fan film reviews.
I really recommend another short film from Broad Stroaks called The Greater Good. It's about the time when Ariana died. They shot it even before the second fantastic beasts movie. I quite like it💜💜
I feel like they made Andromeda excited because well she didn’t know what she was getting herself into until she seen and then she was like “oh nah this isn’t for me”
Saw this movie nearly a year ago now. It's so good I've rewatched it and seen the behind the scenes. One of the best fan films out there. Happy to see a review video!
Really good video 👍. I really like this mini series of fan films you are doing. If you will do more of those, I will recommend: - The Ohmen of chronicles - Neville and the black witch - Son of the moon Also I think it will be great if you ranked all the fan films after having watched them.
I think you should watch Neville Longbottom and the Black Witch, I also like how on the cover for the film it shows Bellatrix on one side, Andromeda on the other and Narcissa in the middle
This fan film was very well done (fun fact - one of my friends from college actually appears at the beginning as a Ravenclaw student in the courtyard scene 🙂). I think I still prefer Snape and the Marauders a bit more. A few other good fan films to react to are: - Neville Longbottom and the Black Witch (the actress who played Bellatrix in that one was spot on!) - Voldemort: Origins of the Heir - Mischief Managed by Foregone Films - Life After Fred films by Brotherhood Studios (these are much shorter, but I think they are definitely worth a watch)
I know i just requested this on your other video, but i highly recommend the noble house of black! I’d like to hear your take on it. It’s also about the black sisters
Can you do a video when you react to scenes in Harry Potter that didn’t make the final cut? Breaking them down or discuss whether or not you think they should or shouldn’t have been in the final cut and why? That would be so interesting!
Neville long bottom and the black witch is by Farley the best Harry Potter fan film in my opinion. Great video as always, btw if you were to watch this fan film next it would fit in the timeline cuz it’s about Alice and frank longbottom.
This review style content can be used while ur doing bigger projects as a sort of place filler and for me i love this style of content as you add a level of analysis that many people cant due to your degree i would personally like a little more of y something was bad or why something was good like how you did with the camera angles and saying that it shows power
