🕵️ Accuracy In Harry Potter DH pt.2 (2012) during the fight between McGonagall and Snape, the torches along the walls diminish after she uses the fire spells. This hints at a detail from the book, where McGonagall redirects the flames from the torches to the tip of her wand, instead of just summoning them.

In this iconic fight, people were quick to notice Snape redirecting the blasts at the death eaters behind him, as well as picking up their wands, once he starts fleeing. This has been posted here countless times. However, I've not seen anyone talk about the fact, that the torches diminish during the preceding fight. I think this is intentional, not only to fit the mood, but also to explain McGonagall's fire spell. So instead of just summoning flames, it's hinted, that she utilized the ones from the torches. She later has to return the fire to the torches, to light the place back up.

So despite alot of details being left out from the movies, compared to the books, this is likely an attempt by the directors to preserve accuracy, while managing the limited screen time.

👥 Foreshadowing The vultures appear 4 times in “Sinners” (2025) Spoiler

Post image
2.4k Upvotes

I saw a post here about the vultures in the first Remmick scene. I wanted to complete it by highlighting that the 3 vultures appear 4 times in the movie always foreshadowing death:

1- By the barn, it’s the first appearance of the twins. 2 vultures are circling in the field next to the barn as they are smoking. The third vulture arrives at the same time as the klan seller’s car before the transaction.

2- When Stack, Sammie and Slim are driving in the cotton fields, the vultures are circling far away (probably getting close to the couple’s house)

3- the main vultures scene with the introduction of Remmick at Bert and Joan’s house. They fly and stop on the roof.

4- at the start of the juke joint party at night when guests start to arrive. They’re above the barn

Mike takes Celia to a restaurant early in the movie - Harry Hausen’s. A nod to Ray Harryhausen, one of the pioneers in movie special effects - notably stop-motion animation, used a lot in monster movies.

I don’t know how I missed that on the first few viewings.
