Harry Potter Movie Minutes

Episode 1 (Minutes 0 to 9:57): This week WE’RE BACK! This is the beginning of the end and we definitely hit the ground running with this movie. Join us for our thoughts on some hairstyle choices, why we are stripping the Dursley’s house, and who knew Hermione had a bedroom?! Can’t wait to dive into these final movies with you all, thank you for listening! Join us next week for minutes 9:57 to 19:3...

It's time!! Join us for another bonus episode where we watch the deleted scenes from this movie. We were thrilled with some, sorely disappointed in others. You'll definitely know which. :) Thanks again for joining us for another season, we appreciate all of you! See you for the next movie, Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, Part 1!

Episode 15 (Minutes 2:19:05 to END): This week awkwardly ends another movie in the Harry Potter movie saga. Cory accurately says “it gives end of Goblet of Fire vibes” which is yes, a bit disappointing. But hey! We did it! Another movie, another season, thank you so much for listening in! Join us next season, thank you all!!

Episode 14 (Minutes 2:09:55 to 2:19:05): This week is it. The part we’ve all been dreading. The “lightning struck tower.” We have feelings and reflect on when we first read this awful/fantastic chapter. Listen in and we’re almost to the end! No post credits this week, just feelings. Join us next week for minutes 2:19:05 to END. ( Scene Marker: This chunk ends with the screen fades to black.)

Episode 13 (Minutes 1:59:38 to 2:09:55): This week floats us across the eerie lake inside of the crystal cave where thankfully we have returning guest Brock to help us work through this chunk. We have a deep dive into how inferi are made, how Malfoy looks like a mortician, and my god, the “Free Willy” movies!! Join us next week for minutes 2:09:55 to 2:19:05! ( Scene Marker: This chunk ends with B...

Episode 12 (Minutes 1:50:45 to 1:59:38): This week brings us back to Hagrid’s hut and back to Slughorn’s true memory. We have some strong feelings about the cave’s appearance and the constant mission of putting Harry’s life in danger. Also, how does one MAKE a horcrux, anyway? Join us next week for minutes 1:59:38 to 2:09:55! ( Scene Marker: This chunk ends with HP and Dumbledore now inside the ca...

Episode 11 (Minutes 1:40:25 to 1:50:45): This week slinks us into the Room of Requirement for some hiding of books and awkward kissing of mouths. We obsess over the ever-changing location of this room and what symbolism may be behind the color choice of the birds used in Malfoy’s repairing scenes. Slughorn offers the story of a fish he received from Lily and we have varying opinions on that detail...

Episode 10 (Minutes 1:31:00 to 1:40:25): This week runs us frantically into the hospital wing to visit Ron after the poisoning. We both can’t help but feel the hospital wing looks pretty comfy about now…but maybe not the teenage drama within it. In this chunk we talk about dead birds, a lack of Myrtle, and the probably unanswerable question, how do you make a new spell? Join us next week for minut...

Episode 9 (Minutes 1:21:09 to 1:31:00): This week brings us back to the hallways of Hogwarts for a classic walk and talk with HP and Hermione. We are joined this week by the lovely ladies from the VomCom podcast to weigh in on the up close and awkward scenes of Ron and Lavender-and really Ron and Harry as well… Listen in as we discuss Slughorn’s upsetting boy’s club but also his truly beautiful of...

Episode 8 (Minutes 1:10:41 to 1:21:09): This week gate crashes us back to Slughorn’s party including a very awkward exchange between HP and Snape. We chat about Lavender again being unhinged, the holiday feel of the Burrow, and we sigh at each other over the fire scene. We just…we can’t. No post credits this week, this one killed us!! Join us next week for minutes 1:21:09 to 1:31:00! ( Scene Marke...

Episode 7 (Minutes 59:59  to 1:10:41): This week dawns on the morning of a quidditch match with a nervous looking Ron wearing…we’re not sure?  We discuss adorable breakfasts, multiple potential druggings, romantic drama in unknown corridors and why must the birds splat? All this and an end credits vent session. Join us next week for minutes 1:10:41 to 1:21:09! ( Scene Marker: This chunk...

Episode 6 (Minutes 49:31 to 59:59): This week brings us in from the cold into the new and improved Three Broomsticks pub/hunting lodge. We discover more misheard lines, the abundance of sweaters, why did they get rid of Madame Rosmerta?! And how glorious does the dessert look at the Slug Club Dinner?! Not to mention, some real hate for that snaky hourglass. Join us next week for minutes 59:59 &nbs...

Episode 5 (Minutes 39:42 to 49:31): This week smoke forms our viewing of Dumbledore’s memory when he first meets Tom Riddle at the orphanage for peculiar children. We discuss the confusing tryouts scene where everyone gets a uniform? And since when can Hermione do non-verbal spells?  Why is this allowed? And did Dumbledore kind of suggest murdering a child when Harry gets out of the pensieve....

Episode 4 (Minutes 30:00 to 39:42): This week resumes the beginning of the year feast with some sudden and inexplicable wardrobe changes on the part of Harry and Luna. We talk about the campy scene in Potions and our strong feelings about the Pensieve becoming futuristic. Maybe a few 90’s movies references enter the conversation as well? Join us next week for minutes 39:42 to 49:31! ( Scene Marker...

Episode 3 (Minutes 20:51 to 30:00): This week climbs us onto a rickety looking roof to spy on the Malfoy’s outing in Diagon Alley. We talk about the train’s journey to Hogwarts and what is the mystery “whooshing” sound of the camera?? And more importantly, does everyone remember what a Koosh ball is? Join us next week for minutes 30:00 to 39:42! ( Scene Marker: This chunk ends with Ron saying “......

Episode 2 (Minutes 11:21 to 20:51): This week plops us outside of the Burrow followed by a (comical?) scene on the staircase. We chat about the Unbreakable Vow in our Probably Unanswerable Question of the week and can’t help but love the Matrix outfit on Bellatrix at Spinner’s End. Also, why is Wormtail even here?? Join us next week for minutes 20:51 to 30:00! ( Scene Marker: This chunk ends with...

Episode 1 (Minutes 0 to 11:21): This week smoke-flies us into the first episode of Season 6, Movie 6! We discuss the chaos we’re thrown into and as always, things never noticed (Death Eaters stealing wands!).

Listen in and thank you for joining us for another season of Harry Potter Movie Minutes! Join...

Episode 12 (Minutes 1:52:34 to 2:03:27): This week propels us towards the end of this movie and the final battle at the ministry. We discuss the dais and the veil in the Probably Unanswerable Question segment and lament that poor Neville’s bravery is excluded. However, we do geek out hard about the battle between Voldemort and Dumbledore. Chef’s kiss. Join us next week for minutes 2:03:27 to THE E...

Episode 11 (Minutes 1:41:40 to 1:52:34): This week tromps us through the Forbidden Forest with a fed up Umbridge. We appreciate her meltdown but have feelings about how the centaurs look. The thestral flight, however, is beautiful. Listen as we lament the loss of seeing more rooms in the Department of Mysteries! (We are greedy. We know this.) Join us next week for minutes 1:52:34 to 2:03:27! ( Sce...

Episode 10 (Minutes 1:31:32 to 1:41:40): This week throws Harry around during a particularly intense Occlumency lesson with Snape.

All these questions and more in this week’s episode as we near the end of Season 5! Join us next week for m...

Episode 8 (Minutes 1:11:05 to 1:21:55): This week swoops us out of the castle and over to Number 12, Grimmauld Place for Christmas with the Weasleys!

Join us next week for minutes 1:21:55 to 1:31:32! ( Scene Marker: This chunk ends with HP...

Episode 7 (Minutes 1:01:05 to 1:11:05): This week pounds another educational decree into the walls of Hogwarts as we enjoy the chaos of Dumbledore’s Army lessons. No one ever needed to see Filch’s face explode but we are proud of the acting choices of several of the students (Go Ginny!) Listen in as we have our first Movies by Minutes guest, Brain Boucher of Top Gun Minute! Join us next week for m...
