What is WRONG with the EPILOGUE

Onset23

What is wrong with the epilogue?!

Eighthhorcrux has said people are complaining and aren't happy with it!

I need to know why cos this is my most anticipated moment

Me_Potter_Fan

At my screening people laughed when they saw how the actors looked but I thought it was great.

Darth Ledger

Hold on to your shellfish man it comes out in less than 2 days lol

Jason

There's nothing wrong with it.

byxspeaks

No reason to pay attention to those idiots.

Riku

I don't think they laughed because it looked fake; they laughed because seeing older versions of these characters is so weird and bizarre.

Or hey, maybe they DO look funny.

Jason

They don't. If they laughed, it's probably because it's weird to see them like that. With kids.

blackvenom

There is nothing wrong with it. At all! It's actually one of the best scenes in the film.
Some people were laughing. Whatever.
It's very sweet. Leaving Hogwarts plays, the aging looks quite believable (they look a bit younger, though). But it's a very sweet way to end the film. And Radcliffe was brilliant!

GinaC

I would just die if anyone laughed during the Epilogue. Makes no sense! I'm so sorry that happened!

I think it was great

WeasleytheKing

The epilogue was really good! Harry and Albus's chat was so sweet and nice and they included one of the best quotes from the book. Having 'Leaving Hogwarts' in the background made it even better.

chester

The only thing that was weird was that albus was almost as big as harry. Daniel radcliffe is so small! xd

HPFan4ever

it was great i think, but there is no mention of harry being godfather of remus and tonks son

Lord Stafford

He's even smaller than Emma now, about 5,5 tall.

Why would there be? Apparently, he isn't important... and yet, Harry talks about him (even though he wouldn't know) to Remus in the forest!

Everything is perfect with the epilogue !

yeah he mentions him in the forest but in the epilogue its just like his a friend lol

Lord Stafford

Are they going off canon again? My word!

Lord Stafford.

Carne

They better include a truckload of deleted scenes for the DVD/BD.

Lord Stafford

They better include a truckload of deleted scenes for the DVD/BD.

They'll probably just include those annoying and pointless deleted scenes, like the ones we have had since OOTP, that have no dialogue and overall meaning.

Lord Stafford.

Richard

so is leaving hogwarts definitely in the epilogue??

Carne

so is leaving hogwarts definitely in the epilogue??

Yes.

chester

so is leaving hogwarts definitely in the epilogue??

Yes and it's fanatastic to hear.

Richard

i heard someone said it was a different version of leaving hogwarts

chester

i heard someone said it was a different version of leaving hogwarts

Could be, but the difference isn't huge then. For me, it sounded the same.

chace483

There is nothing wrong with the epilogue...no one when i went to see it laughed. But I guess it was the crew they wouldn't laugh.

Chace how long would you guess the Kings Cross Dumbledore and Harry conversation is? And princes tale?

blackvenom

I envy you, chace. It's such a beautiful scene. The crowd laughed last night. And some people next to me were saying: 'What? Harry looks like a grandpa! Hermione looks only 20 years old! So stupid! Why did they include this?' and it spoiled the experience. Well, I didn't have a good audience.

chester

I have to admit that emma didn't look that old.

CoolestGuyOnHPF

most of the audince at my theater laughd when they saw draco and his son? O.o

Jason

Emma nor Bonnie looked that old. They just had this sophisticated feel to them.

blackvenom

Emma looked around 27-28, yeah.

I think they all looked good.

Mamoun

Nothing was wrong with the epilogue and nobody laughed at anything at my theater. Harry, Ron, Draco & Ginny looked aged well but Hermoine looked, umm, as she is?

marspeach

I thought the epilogue was fine, actually. The makeup was much better than in the first pictures they showed. I wish they could have included Draco's nod, but whatever. And I wish they had included a bit more of the adults talking to each other. But I thought it was sweet (the epilogue's never been one of my favorite parts anyway).

Mamoun

Definitely, it wasn't a very good part of the book and I'm glad it lacks a bit of its cheesiness.

Richard

so emma still looks young?

Jason

so emma still looks young?

She looks like a hot mom. Lol..

Martin1

so emma still looks young?

She looks like a hot mom. Lol..

And deservedly so!

Richard

yay!

chace483

The scene WAS beautiful. The acting when Harry is talking with Albus is really good so I can't imagine why they would laugh. The only bad thing about the epilogue was that...everyone looked convincing, don't get me wrong and this is me just being picky, but the girls had some ridiculous perms... :-))
Apart from that, the scene was short and sweet and poignant.

Jason

Loved the shot of Harry hugging Albus. It looked iconic.

TheEightHorcrux

@JasonAnderson or @chace483 How did the leaving hogwart theme fit the scene? Could you do a step by step description of the epilogue, and describe the music as well? Does it say "19 years later" on screen, and is it in a design, a font, or are there clouds, etc)

chace483

It does say ninetten years later...i was surprised about that. I didn't think they would do that. The first shot is an exterior shot of kings cross station and then the family before they run through the barrier and onto platform 9 and three quarters.

chace483

The talk with albus was really sweet, they have a short scene where Albus goes on the train and joins James in the carriage and hes just looking around in amazement and i think there's a firework or something flying around his head. It's really good.

How does leaving hogwarts fit? Does it play throughout it or at the end? And is there any lines Harry says before it ends, to Ginny or anyone?

It plays throughout. No dialogue at the end, we see the train leave and then it zooms in towards Harry, Ginny, Ron and Hermione smiling with Lily Luna and Hugo next to them. Then it fades out and the credits play.

I think that firework thing was a Weasley toy, the one Fred and George were playing with in the courtyard in OOTP, the one Umbridge stopped.

Yeah, that's right. You saw this film more recently than i did!

Hinkypunk

I feel bad for those that have an unwitting audience to share this moment with. The screening my sis attended a couple of nights ago had a great audience. When the screen faded to black, only three people did not know what was coming and started to applaud. The entire theatre let out a huge SHHHHHH !! Then the ' nineteen years later ' appeared and you heard one person sheepishly say " Oh, sorry.."

Then she said the tears began to flow from many people and as it ended there was tumultuous applause. That is the way to see this film. She was lucky.
