Order of the Phoenix: What the Movie Left Behind
The movie captures the highlights. The book captures the journey.
After finishing Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix, Eric returns to the 2007 film with a whole new perspective!
As a lifelong fan who grew up loving the movies, Eric reflects on what makes the adaptation special, from Imelda Staunton's unforgettable Dolores Umbridge to the spectacular battle between Dumbledore and Voldemort.
But after experiencing the full story through the book, it's impossible to ignore what's missing. From the deeper relationships within the Order to Neville's heartbreaking family history, Sirius Black, and Harry's complicated relationship with Dumbledore, there's so much more to this story than what made it to the screen.
Plus, an important announcement about the future of Magic Muggle! With HBO's new Harry Potter series arriving this Christmas, Eric shares why the journey into Half-Blood Prince will wait until after Season 1, and what listeners can expect when Magic Muggle returns to Hogwarts.
Wands down, hearts full. 🪄
