HP Movie Trivia

[durinsbane2244]

i just had a thought, maybe we should seperate the movie and book trivia, like we have for the lotr...i will await your opinions before giving a first question, and, if possible, the opinions of some mods/admins...

-durin!

[jammi567]

sounds like a good idea. :)

[Ireth]

Sounds great to me.

[durinsbane2244]

alright, 2/2!! final decision still pending, folks!

[strider8]

Great

[durinsbane2244]

alrighty, alrighty...we still must wait though...3 people cannot honestly represent the consensus of a board, eh? :D

[Radagast The Brown]

Ok, I agree... don't think you need everyone to vote though, just start ansking questions! :)

[durinsbane2244]

well...i didn't want to just start without knowing if it would get participation...whatever than...what famous wonder of the world makes an appearence in the third film? [sort of]

[Spock]

Great idea.

DB, just go ahead and post a question.

As we have books and movie threads in LOTR, this fits perfectly with our existing policies.

.........waits breathlessly for the first question.

[durinsbane2244]

what famous wonder of the world makes an appearence in the third film? [sort of]

what famous wonder of the world makes an appearence in the third film? [sort of]

[Ireth]

The London Bridge?

[durinsbane2244]

nope...it's actually considered one of the seven...

[Spock]

The only one of the seven wonders still standing is the great pyramid of egypt but I don't remember seeing it in the movie. :confused:

[sun-star]

Isn't that the book where the Weasleys go to Egypt? I can't remember how they did it in the film, but maybe some pyramids are shown then.

[durinsbane2244]

no, it's not that. remember how i said, "sort of?" yeah. it's a thing that looks like it's based off one. be creative here. :p

[Ireth]

Are you looking for specific details DB? It would then be 'The Pyramids of Giza'

[durinsbane2244]

no, it is not the pyramids, nor does it have anything to do with Egypt...

[Ireth]

I haven't a clue about this.

[durinsbane2244]

alright, once again, it has NOTHING WHATSOEVER TO DO WITH EGYPT!! :p :D

[durinsbane2244]

and we're still in indefinate stand-by...

[Spock]

Why not just give a new question? This is obviously too obscure or difficult.....or ?

[ElvenLover]

Does anyone know all the Wonders? Name them and you are bound to get it right!

[durinsbane2244]

at this point, i'll take something like that...

[Spock]

PLEASE post a new question, we've gone another 5 days without any movement. :(

[durinsbane2244]

alright, alright...it was stonhenge...the stone circle that malfoy gets punched at...geez...anyway, er...what character loses all credit of help in the fourth movie?

[Spock]

alright, alright...it was stonhenge...the stone circle that malfoy gets punched at...geez...anyway, er...what character loses all credit of help in the fourth movie?

Perhaps you can phrase this question a tad better? :confused:

[durinsbane2244]

what character (who in the book was helpful) was left out of that role in the fourth film? (that good?)

[Ireth]

Bill Weasly?

[durinsbane2244]

nope.

[Ireth]

Arthur Weasley, for bringing Harry to the burrow?

[sun-star]

Dobby, not giving Harry the Gillyweed?

alright, alright...it was stonhenge...the stone circle that malfoy gets punched at...geez...anyway, er...what character loses all credit of help in the fourth movie?

Stonehenge isn't one of the seven wonders of the world... and the stone circle isn't Stonehenge anyway :confused:

[durinsbane2244]

stonehenge isn't a wonder? yes it is...i'm almost positive...and i said makes an appearence sort of, 'cause it sure looks like it. but wow. i just have this memory of a little thingy of the wonders with pictures, and it had Stonehenge...hm...

[Spock]

NO, you specifically said one of the seven wonders of the world and Stonehenge IS NOT one of them.

I would award Sun-Star the next question in light of your error.

[durinsbane2244]

hm. well. in complete honesty, i thought it was, so a profuse apology friends... :(

[sun-star]

Easy mistake to make :)

[Spock]

No not really. Google has taken that option out even if the education system has failed.

Sun-Star-please post the next question. :)

[sun-star]

No not really. Google has taken that option out even if the education system has failed.

Sun-Star-please post the next question. :)

OK, which real-life band(s) played the Weird Sisters in the fourth film?

[Spock]

OK, which real-life band(s) played the Weird Sisters in the fourth film?


November, 2005

Note to Disgruntled Harry Potter Fans: We didn't do it!

Earlier this year, our band was contacted by Warner Bros. to request our permission to use the name "Weird Sisters" in the upcoming movie, Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire. As fans of the books and the movies, we were enthusiastic about the negotiations. However, the Canadian band, The Wyrd Sisters, objected venomously to Warner Bros.' minimal reference to the name in the film, and filed suit. Warner Bros. broke off negotiations with us as a result, and ultimately dropped all reference to the term "Weird Sisters" in the movie. We have since received several angry emails, apparently mistaking us for the Canadian band, and taking us to task for fighting with Warner Bros.

FOR THE RECORD: we had NO objection to Warner Bros.' plans, and in fact looked forward to the movie. The actions of The Wyrd Sisters have apparently upset the Harry Potter fan community, and in fact, cost us, the Three Weird Sisters, a substantial amount of money, due to the terminated negotiations. The folks who have confused us with the other band have accused us of being mean spirited, and we want to set the record straight. Any communications with The Wyrd Sisters should be directed to them, not us.

[Spock]

I dug out my DVD and went over the credits. The band name does not appear. The credits do include each musical instrument and its player; i.e. bass player, keyboard player, of the band but no name.

I THINK WE NEED A NEW QUESTION :eek:

[sun-star]

The individually credited musicians are members of two famous British bands. Try Google.

[Spock]

And there is is-------YOU MUST ASK QUESTIONS BASED UPON WHAT IS IN THE MOVIE..not what information you can find about but is not listed or shown in the movie.

PLEASE post a properly qualified new question.

[sun-star]

The answer (which is Pulp and Radiohead, by the way) was obvious to me when I first saw the film, so I don't think it's unreasonable to think other people would know it.

I suggest you post the next question.

[Spock]

It was unreasonable as it does not conform to the rules for trivia. You knew because you are interested in that genre, many others aren't.
The band as such was NOT given any credits and so the answer was NOT in the movie.

New question:

Who are the Production Consultants for the last movie?

[durinsbane2244]

poster pictures. and Todd Baillere for the IMAX version. :cool:

[Spock]

Not quite!

[durinsbane2244]

are you sure? i can show you the credits...

[Spock]

Yep, Goblet of Fire, credits, almost the last one on the screen is Production Consultants = Potter Pictures.

You read a different line.

However, you tried so hard, I award you the next question. :D :D :D :D

[durinsbane2244]

potter pictures, eh? maybe i just misread it and thought it said "poster". hm. dunno. anyways.........who is the only person we've seen control the ceiling in hogwarts?

[jammi567]

dumbledore?

[durinsbane2244]

nope.

[jammi567]

the person who controls the weather outside, and as the ceiling reflects what's outside...

[durinsbane2244]

noooooooooo...someone we've actually seen change it...

[Ireth]

Alastor Moody. When he first enters the great hall?

[durinsbane2244]

right you are, ireth, take it away! :D

[Ireth]

In the fourth movie what is different about the Beauxbatons' carriage?

[Spock]

In the fourth movie what is different about the Beauxbatons' carriage?

Forgive me but the Beauxbatons carriage only first appears in the fourth movie and so this question isn't logical.
I think you were thinking of comparing the book vs the movie but that cannot be done here.

Please post a new question. :evil:

[durinsbane2244]

HE SAID IT! HE SAID IT! HE SAID "LOGICAL" !!!! wow, i've been waiting sooooo long to actually see you say that...whew...finally...

[Ireth]

What does Hagrid do that makes him look stupid at the start of term feast in the fourth movie?

[durinsbane2244]

when he stands up at his introduction he knocks into the table, right? :)

[Ireth]

The answer is from the fourth movie, db!
What you said happens in PoA.

[durinsbane2244]

oh yeah! right, right...does he wipe his mouth with the tablecloth? i think that's it...

[Ireth]

Not the one I'm looking for.

[jammi567]

when he sticks his fork into proffesor flickwick's hand at the yule ball.

[Ireth]

Not the yule ball but at the start of term feast. I'll give it you anyway.

Your go jammi. :)

[jammi567]

who plays crouch jr?

[Ireth]

David Tennant.

[jammi567]

yes.

[Ireth]

What's the name of the boy who wants Ron to get him Harry's autograph?

[Spock]

What's the name of the boy who wants Ron to get him Harry's autograph?

Nigel. :cool:

[Ireth]

Right. Your go, Spock.

[Spock]

How long does Lucius Malfoy bet Harry will last at the Tri-Wizard Contest?

[Spock]

72 hrs, three days, :(

[jammi567]

5-10 minutes.

[Spock]

How long does Lucius Malfoy bet Harry will last at the Tri-Wizard Contest?

I'm looking for the exact answer, not a time frame. :p

[jammi567]

Ok then, 5 minutes.

[Spock]

Ok then, 5 minutes.


YES!

we're still the only two here :(

[jammi567]

What's the first animal we see?

you might want to put a link in your sig to the forum. Just an idea.

[Ireth]

See where, Jammi?

[jammi567]

See where, Jammi?
:confused: :confused:

[Ireth]

What's the first animal we see?



I meant this. ^

[Spock]

The FIRST animal we see, is the snow owl, flying to the credit screen. :D

[jammi567]

In the actual movie.

[durinsbane2244]

deleted.

[Spock]

Well the first movie-the rat on the train.

You didn't say which movie.

[jammi567]

noooo.

[Spock]

which Harry Potter movie are you asking about??????

[jammi567]

The first movie!

[Spock]

A cat.

[jammi567]

no, Spock, sorry. :)

[durinsbane2244]

an owl?

[jammi567]

Yeh, that's right.

[durinsbane2244]

i think someone already said owl though, up there^ when there was still confusion about which film...i don't wanna take it if that's the case...yeah, spock said snow owl..it's his...

[durinsbane2244]

aaaaaand, i've been told to take it...hm...what spell's properties are completely changed in the second film?

[Spock]

Ratz. I've been looking for two days and cannot find my copy of the first two movies.

I'm out of the running for this one. :(

[durinsbane2244]

victory is mine! i mean, oh! that's a shame, mate, a real shame... :rolleyes: ;)

[Ireth]

Rictusempra and Expelliarmus , I think. One is supposed to tickle and theother to disarm but both end up blastibg the opponent away.

(Hope I'm not too far off the mark here)

[durinsbane2244]

rictusempra...expelliarmus can be that powerful, as we see in book three, but yeah, you got it ireth..

[Ireth]

An easy one.

What is the podium used by Dumbledore to address the students (in movie 3)modelled after?

[Spock]

That would be POA? Not that easy. :(

[Spock]

A golden Owl with wings outstretched. :cool:

[durinsbane2244]

another bump...*sigh*... :( :rolleyes:

[Ireth]

You're right, Spock and sorry for the delay.

[Spock]

What was the numerical portion of Sirus' prisoner number? :cool:

[jammi567]

didn't we already have this question on the book thread, but no-one could answer it?

[Spock]

didn't we already have this question on the book thread, but no-one could answer it?

No, actually DB pointed out I had posted in the wrong topic and I deleted that question immediately and replaced it with one from the book.

This is from the movie and no one has answered it yet. :p

[Butterbeer]

ain't just me then that's done that huh? :D

*edit* barring the replacing it quickly bit o' course ;)

[Spock]

What was the numerical portion of Sirus' prisoner number? :cool:


Here it is, plain and simple folks. :(

[durinsbane2244]

assuming that you mean the main 5 symbols, i'm going to say 390 (the last one looks zeroish) :rolleyes:

[Spock]

Indeed, DB, your hours in front of the video has paid off with a correct answer. :D :D :cool: :evil:

[durinsbane2244]

more like my sister's obsession with gary oldman, and ownership of poster... :rolleyes:

hmm.....

how many sections are there on sirius's number chart?

[Spock]

5 :)

[Spock]

or 6 :D

[Spock]

DB-NINE days have passed.

Please confirm the answer as right or wrong or better still pass a new question if you can :p

[durinsbane2244]

wow, sorry. didn't even notice! :rolleyes:

spock is correct, yugo!

[Spock]

Ok, easy one. What two pieces of art work (yes they can been seen and qualify as artwork) can be found: a) in Harry's room, b) outside of Harry's room. :p
third movie

[Spock]

OHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH HHHH

two days and not even a guess :eek: :(

[Spock]

Eleven days, I give up.

No more posting for me.

Take it - anyone -

[Spock]

And Four More Since I Gave Up :( :( :(

[Spock]

someone please bury this dead thread

or

post a new question. :eek:

[jammi567]

Totally forgot. What was the answer, then i'll post a question, see if i can't keep it going.

[Spock]

not a chance :(

[jammi567]

Why?

[Ireth]

An owl's picture for one? I haven't a clue about the other.

[Spock]

someone please bury this dead thread

or

post a new question. :eek:


.............................

[jammi567]

Ok then. What does dd enjoy doing?

[durinsbane2244]

i must say, this is a rather vague question...anyway...teaching students? managing hogwarts? battling the dark lord? chamber music? 9-pin? the list goes on...

[jammi567]

last two are correct. Your go. And i don't want to make it too easy, overwise, what would be the fun in that.

[durinsbane2244]

righto then! what part of the sorting hat forms its mouth and its eyes?

[Serenoli]

Ok, the brim is the mouth. The tip are the eyes. (its not like there is much more to a hat anyway. :rolleyes: :p )

[durinsbane2244]

not quite what i was looking for....but if nothing else comes, you can go...wait a tad, though.

[jammi567]

Aren't the eyes scrunched up bits of the hat?

[durinsbane2244]

folds, yes. now just the mouth...:D

[jammi567]

another fold?

[Serenoli]

Okay, for the mouth, how about, a rip in the hat just above the brim?

[durinsbane2244]

take 'er away, serenol!

[Serenoli]

Ok, in the third movie... name the song sung at the Start-of-term feast, and who originally wrote the lyrics.

[Spock]

..hmmm, "Ding dong The Witch is Dead" :eek: :D
by The Munchkins :)

[Serenoli]

Um, no. Although it sounds so genuine I'm wondering if I'm not wrong after all. But, anyway... try again :)

[Spock]

Ten Days And Nothing :( :(

[Serenoli]

All my questions seem too hard! The song is from Macbeth, the one which goes something like "Double, double toil and trouble, Fire burn and Cauldron bubble"

[Spock]

All my questions seem too hard! The song is from Macbeth, the one which goes something like "Double, double toil and trouble, Fire burn and Cauldron bubble"


That's because, while technically your question (and others in the past) are from the movies, they come from the rolling credits at the end.

I feel it would be more in the spirit of "trivia" to ask questions based upon the movie itself rather than the credits.

Why not try again.

[Serenoli]

But I never saw the end credits! I recognised the song by listening to them sing... anyway, i can't think of anything, really... so, u give a question for once, Spock :rolleyes:

[Spock]

I understand, but only a small number of music fans would recognize the song, etc. and so the question would still be a bit 'exotic' for general trivia.

I'll try and post a question later today.

[Spock]

When do we first see Mad Eye Mooney?

[jammi567]

At the very end of movie four, if i read your question right.

[Spock]

At the very end of movie four, if i read your question right.

Oh, Jammi567, you make me smile. I'm not the only one who gets tired and makes mistakes on this board. :D




Try again. :rolleyes:

[jammi567]

i'm sure it's right. unless you mean imposter moody.

and i didn't think you'd messed up the question, it could just be a trick question.

[Spock]

When do we first see Mad Eye Mooney?

I see that jammin, modified his answer earlier-I was acutally on but didn't post my reply until 10am EST.


i'm sure it's right. unless you mean imposter moody.
.


I'm looking for a description as well as timing for this answer and yes, it is a tricky question deliberately.

[jammi567]

at the start of term feast.

[Spock]

at the start of term feast.

ok, you're on the right track to one of the possible answers I'll accept.......you're almost there, just a little late.......(that's a hint)

...back after my run to the post office......

[jammi567]

in the middle of the start of term feast. :rolleyes:

[Spock]

in the middle of the start of term feast. :rolleyes:

As jammi567 and a very few others (along with myself) are the only ones keeping the trivia going; I'm going to spell out the answer and turn over the next question to him.

1. MEM is first seen walking across the 'moors' in the rain (carrying his walking stick) going towards Hogwarts.

2. Three quick scenes later (about 45 seconds or so) we see his face appear at the dining hall where is entering.

3. Since we know by watching the ENTIRE movie, that this is NOT MEM but an imposter

4. MEM is "seen" in section 7 of his trunk when DD opens it.

I was open to both the first sighting of the imposter or the first of the real MEM---remember I admitted it was a tricky question.

J-take it away. :cool:

[jammi567]

Cool. so i did get it right first time.

Ok, who played Quirrill?

[Spock]

Cool. so i did get it right first time.



...in fact, you did not....real mooney was in 7th level of trunk.....
.......fake mooney was walking across moors in the rain......
....just to keep the record straight...... ;) :p :rolleyes:

[jammi567]

that question was really evil. :mad: :) :D

[Spock]

A question cannot be evil. The purpose of trivia in in trivial nuances. I was just at the top of my game with that one. :D

[durinsbane2244]

so can we get a question as opposed to complaints, jams? ;)

[jammi567]

try post 153. and i'm not complaining, i'm only saying that that question was practically a trick one. but it's over and done with now, so now you can try and answer my question at post 153.

[Spock]

Cool. so i did get it right first time.

Ok, who played Quirrill?


now THAT is a ssssssneeeeeeeekkkkkkkkkkeeeeeeee question.

reading the credits shouldn't be part of MOVIE trivia, but that's only MO

so to answer- Quirrill was played by Ian Hart. :evil:

[jammi567]

yeah. your go.

[durinsbane2244]

as requested by ze spocko, i shall take the question...hm...

what design is ron's wifebeater in the "piss-off" scene of IV?

[Serenoli]

Whats a wifebeater? Do u mean that weird wooly hat he was wearing? As far as I recall, it was maroon, wooly, and had two tying strings hanging down on either side of his face. :rolleyes: :D I'm laughing as I remember it.

[durinsbane2244]

no, tis a tank-toppy undershirt...

[Serenoli]

No idea, then...

[Spock]

Yeah, what is a 'wifebeater' anyway??? Please refer to things that us muggles would recognize and thereby be able to answer the question, yeah. :confused:

[durinsbane2244]

as an american, you should know what a wifebeater is...anyway, i've explained.

[Spock]

well in FOUR days no one has gotten it, partly because DB refuses to clarify :(

[Serenoli]

Spock, look up, DB says, (after I gave a wrong answer) that its a tank-top undershirt.

[durinsbane2244]

i also said that i already explained...*woosh* :D and no, i've not a clue why i "woosh"ed...:rolleyes:

[ElvenLover]

durin, I leave the moot for a few months and you seem to be creating more havoc everyday! :) :p :) Whatever are we going to do with you?

Was the wifebeater sporting some kind of team logo? (random guess)

[jammi567]

so who's go is it?

[durinsbane2244]

durin, I leave the moot for a few months and you seem to be creating more havoc everyday! :) :p :) Whatever are we going to do with you?

Was the wifebeater sporting some kind of team logo? (random guess)

ELVEN LOVER!!!

no, you're wrong...but yay!

[ElvenLover]

lol I am guessing that means you are happy to hear from me lol
It's good to be back.
I have no idea what the answer to your ? is tho... :confused: :( :confused:

[durinsbane2244]

yes, well, i'll give it one more day now that we all (spock) know what it is...:D

[Spock]

:confused: I still don't know.....a tank top ???? never heard of it nor read it....but then, I'm under the weather these days :(

[durinsbane2244]

heard of or read? this is the film...you have to look spocko...i even gave you the scene...:rolleyes:

[Spock]

Sorry, DB, I've still no idea of scene nor object. My brain just isn't functioning well these past few days/weeks/hmmm, :eek:

[Spock]

So with another week gone by, are we getting a new question??????? :(

[jammi567]

i think we should. with durinsbane telling us the answer, as well as providing a new, easier, question.

[durinsbane2244]

it's leopard skin...geez...someone else can go, i got nothing....

[jammi567]

okay then:

when does Barty Jr officially join Voldemort?

[Serenoli]

In the movies... Bart Jr joins Voldy at the Riddle house, (in July?) before the Quidditch World Cup, and around the same time that Frank Bryce was murdered.

[jammi567]

Before the World Cup, yeah. Your go.
