The Dramatic Death on Screen
Although Rupert was a reconstructed version of himself, he also inherited the ability to read people that his other self had honed in Hollywood and on film sets.
He instantly realized the reason for the change in the atmosphere of the room.
"Cedric's death. Let me start with the novel version, which is actually quite dramatic."
(The viewers in the live stream didn't object to starting with the novel version, because the movie has now reached the third round of the Triwizard Tournament, and the movie will tell them the answer.)
"To be precise, neither Barty Crouch Jr.. nor Dumbledore ever intended to kill him."
"It was an accident that Cedric was able to touch the Champion trophy."
(The anger on Cho Chang's face turned into surprise and doubt.)
(The Diggory couple, realizing they were about to question their son about his death, shut their mouths and pricked up their ears.)
"Barty Crouch Jr. never intended for anyone other than Harry to have access to the trophy. He controlled Krum with the Killing Curse, thus eliminating Phoebe."
(The Killing Curse?)
(Many viewers have linked this to Dumbledore's warning in the film, as he says, "You may lose yourself along the way.")
(It seems the movie version of Dumbledore also knew Moody was an imposter and was preparing to use the Killing Curse to help Harry win?)
"It was only when Cedric was being ruled out that Harry discovered him and saved Cedric."
(Harry: So I'm the one who got Cedric into trouble?)
"Even at this point, Barty Crouch Jr. still hadn't given up. Of course, this is just my own understanding. Even with Harry's reminders and distraction, Cedric was still knocked out by the suddenly appearing Acromantula, causing him to drop his wand. He was definitely going to be eliminated."
"Without being warned, the giant spider's attention remained on Cedric. The outcome was more obvious when a wizard without a wand faced a giant spider."
"This Acromantula was most likely also Barty Crouch Jr..'s doing."
"I reckon that when Barty Crouch Jr.. saw Harry and Cedric defeat the giant spider by having Harry distract it and pick up the wand, he probably gave up by then."
"With Dumbledore watching over him on the field, he couldn't do much more."
"Harry had a leg injury, and Cedric, whom he rescued, was only three feet away from the trophy."
"I bet Barty Crouch Jr. laughed his head off when he heard that Cedric was offering to forfeit the match and give the trophy to Harry."
"But Harry just wouldn't have it, saying that at least the two of them should be together."
"And then Cedric died?" The movie Ron was a bit surreal, but it was really dramatic.
(Cho Chang was completely speechless.)
(The Cedric were on the verge of tears, unsure whether to be grateful to Harry or resent Harry. Fortunately, the appearance of the Behind-the-Scenes God changed everything.)
(To prevent Harry from blaming himself for something that was no longer possible, Cedric joked, "Harry, you just don't want to let me go, do you?")
(Fred: "That's really stubborn.")
(George didn't speak with Fred in person, but he immediately understood. "Harry, you've really gone to great lengths to get Cho Chang.")
(The atmosphere in the live stream instantly became more relaxed.)
Rupert nodded. "Yes, the trophy, which was turned into Door Key, was sent to Voldemort then had Wormtail kill the troublesome Cedric."
(Sirius: "Peter, you shameless scoundrel! You despicable coward!")
"The maze in the movie is actually more exciting, and there's even a Sphinx."
"Is Krum being controlled just like in the novel?" The movie Ron sensed something was wrong based on what Rupert had said earlier.
"Yes." Rupert nodded. "He filmed the attack on Phoebe."
"Look, to make it easier to understand, the director even filmed this scene, where the controlled Krum let Harry go."
"Oh no... Phoebe wouldn't have been strangled by the Devil's Snare, would she? If Harry didn't use her wand to send out the Red Spark, would he?" Neville asked.
("Of course not," Dumbledore said. "The reason the Triwizard Tournament was able to start smoothly last year was because we had already taken security precautions. The red color is more symbolic, letting the audience know that Champion has left the arena.")
"This part isn't actually fixed," Rupert said. "Cedric defeated Krum himself. It's not that he was incompetent; after all, it wasn't described in detail in the novel. What Harry saw was Cedric lying on the ground, tortured by Krum with the Cruciatus Curse."
"Krum may have ambushed us, especially since he used an illegal spell like the Cruciatus Curse. But it's like Cedric's own brilliance led him down the path to his death."
"And Harry is even better; he actually learned many spells in a crash course. It's not like in the movies where he was directly admitted to a university."
"This strange wind isn't a headwind; it's more like it's pushing them toward the trophy."
"This only captures his excellent character."
"Cedric was entangled in vines, and Harry, with the trophy in front of him, chose to save Cedric first."
"For the final trophy, Harry also gave Cedric a share with him."
("So in the movie version, I was also saved by Harry? And I had two chances to live." Cedric was speechless.)
(The movie version of him looks exactly like him. The movie's plot is clearly the original future where Basil didn't come to Hogwarts and the Behind-the-Scenes God didn't appear.)
("No, it's three times in the novel," one meticulous viewer said. "Harry saved you once when you were being tortured by Krum.")
("My death is imminent," Cedric said calmly as he saw the scene of him and Harry searching for their way into an unfamiliar place.)
(But the next second, he lost his composure.)
("What's wrong with me!")
(In Cedric's view, he clearly had time to escape.)
(Having already recognized the trophy as the Door Key, he ignored Harry's advice and went back to the trophy, insisting on figuring out where it was first. He then kept asking Harry what was wrong, refusing to listen to reason.)
(All I know is, 'What did you say?' 'What's wrong with you?')
(Would it kill you to go back to the trophy, Harry?!)
(This way, they can also leave with Harry.)
(Voldemort was speechless. He was annoyed that his character and Wormtail in the movie weren't guarding the Door Key, and instead leisurely strolled out after noticing him. Weren't they afraid he'd escape?)
"So that's why." The movie Draco found it a little ridiculous. "The movie version of Cedric died more hastily, and he had a better chance of surviving."
Draco looked at Rupert and said, "Brother, now I know why you didn't mention the movie version first. You were afraid we wouldn't believe you, weren't you?"
(Unlike the other audience members who were shocked by Cedric's hasty death and even ignored the Voldemort bathing scene, Sirius's attention was entirely on Harry, so when Peter cut Harry's skin with a dagger, he shouted, "Get away from Harry, you rat!")
(As Sirius's cousin, Bellatrix's focus was different. Even under the influence of the Dementor, her face turned red with shyness, and she said, "My master's body...")
(She was also a little disappointed that Voldemort had conjured clothes so quickly, not giving her time to cast the spell.)
"Haha, Peter thought Voldemort was concerned about his lost arm," Ron laughed gleefully.
Draco didn't speak in the movie because his father was among the Death Eater who appeared.
(Bellatrix's expression changed drastically, "Master, this bastard is lying, don't let him get away with it!")
(Lucius, in the opposite cell, sneered, "A bald, noseless, lowly Half-blood- breed, what's wrong with me lying to him?")
(Sirius looked disgusted. "They even gave this traitor a hand.")
The room went silent for a moment, because of what happened next.
Voldemort touched Cedric's face with his muddy feet and said coldly, "What a handsome young man."
"Don't touch him!" The people in the room roared almost simultaneously, just like Harry in the movie.
("Don't touch him!")
("Take your stinky feet away!")
(.)
(Countless comments scrolled through the live stream in an instant.)
(Aside from what should be Bellatrix's, 'Master stepped on me,' a few foot fetishists, and 'I licked', the rest are all insults and indignation directed at Voldemort.)
(Among them, the Diggory couple and Cho Chang were the most vicious, using the most venomous words they could think of in their lives.)
("Don't touch him!" said Sirius. "Get your filthy hands off him!")
(His target was Voldemort, but now it was Harry who was being touched. Since Harry was hanging half a head taller than him, Voldemort chose to use his hands.)
("Incredible. To be able to use a spell to fight back after being tortured by the Cruciatus Curse," Dumbledore exclaimed.)
(He was unmoved by Voldemort's statement in the movie that he wanted to kill Harry.)
(Not because this scene will never happen again.)
(But Voldemort, resurrected in this way, would no longer be able to kill Harry.)
(It would be better to kill Harry Horcrux now. Voldemort, thinking Harry is dead, makes a high-profile comeback with the resurrected Harry, which would undoubtedly be a powerful boost to the Wizarding World.)
(Dark forces and races will retreat.)
(With the fulfillment of the Chosen One's Prophecy once again, even a coward like Fudge would dare to hide behind the scenes and sound the horn against Voldemort.)
("Lily?" Snape's comment filled the comment section of the live stream, which was temporarily empty due to the appearance of 'ghosts' as Voldemort and Harry clashed.)
("That's the Prior Incantato," Harry said.)
(Voldemort was surprised. Of course, he knew this was not a spell in the normal sense that a wand would display the spell of the most recently used magic. What surprised him was that he was unaware of and did not understand this phenomenon, while Harry Potter knew it.)
(The same applies to Dumbledore; accounts of this phenomenon are extremely rare.)
(Their surprise stemmed from the fact that Harry had no experience with anything related to magic, spell cards, or the Starry World. It was as if Harry Potter, whose fourth-year grades were only above average due to his talent, had discovered a very obscure piece of knowledge that couldn't be found in the library.)
Everyone in the room was also extremely surprised.
Both locals and those without access to live streaming platforms looked at the projection of the live streaming room above Neville's head.
They were all waiting for Harry's answer.
(Just as Voldemort and Dumbledore wondering if Harry was still reading while the Rune Card World was blacked out and unable to play, Harry answered their questions, "Basil told me. After learning that the Deathly Hallows truly existed, I asked Basil.")
("He told me the true nature of the Resurrection Stone —like Enchanted Painting, closer to the phenomenon that occurs when a wand flashes back.")
("Ha ha," said Voldemort, "It seems even Basil Granger can be wrong. I obtained my Resurrection Stone, which is useless in this world, but in his memory it can truly summon souls.")
Draco nodded, recalling a dream he had had where his father warned him not to come near him.
He later learned through Harry's dream that it was because his father's soul had been summoned by Voldemort to send him back to the Malfoy Manor, but somehow it failed.
Ron and Harry nodded in agreement.
"The Resurrection Stone exists."
"It can summon souls."
Ron was there because he was there too.
Harry is because he is the one who dreams.
Rupert said, "That should be the difference between the novel and the movie. The movie added the scene where Harry breaks the Elder Wand."
"Therefore, it's normal that the Resurrection Stone in the movie world can't bring people back to life."
("The Elder Wand is indeed just a powerful alchemical tool," Dumbledore said. "It can be broken.")
("Is that so?" Voldemort feigned ignorance.)
(Having sacrificed all his Horcrux, including the Gaunt family ring, which is the Resurrection Stone, he certainly knew that the Resurrection Stone in his world could not summon souls.)
(He was just doing it on purpose, trying to deny Basil's correctness.)
"Damn director!" Ron the filmmaker complained.
(Amos Diggory: "Damn Voldemort!")
(The movie just happened to show the scene where Harry returns with Cedric, and Cedric stands up and applauds. How ironic!)
(More than one viewer found this scene ironic.)
(Amidst cheerful music, everyone laughed and clapped enthusiastically, with only a few people noticing.)
(Cedric tries to lighten the mood again, "You really brought my body back for me, well done, Harry.")
Rupert, also trying to ease the tension, abruptly said, "You know what? The Prior Incantato in the novel actually created more than four 'ghosts.' There was also Bertha Jorkins."
(Bertha Jorkins: "What? My future self in this world will die at Voldemort's hands?")
Rupert saw the person in question's statement, which was exactly what he did on purpose.
He had read the movie script. The character of Bertha Jorkins was originally intended, but it was cut because it was considered redundant and would tarnish the legitimacy of the character of Old Crouch, just like the House-elf Winky.
"In the novel, because you discovered Barty Crouch Jr.., Crouch erased your memories of him."
"The consequence is that you gradually become forgetful and are constantly being chased around by various departments of the Ministry of Magic."
"In the end Ludo Bagman accepted you."
("Ludo?" Jorgins said, "He's a good man. It's a shame he's so fond of gambling.")
Rupert was speechless. He had just praised the other person, only to have them reveal that the other person liked gambling.
The novel described her as someone who couldn't keep a secret, had keen insight, and was very curious, but I never expected her to be this bad at keeping secrets.
If you add keen insight to that.
No wonder she was able to spot Barty Crouch Jr.., and no wonder Old Crouch. reacted so strongly. He used the Memory Charm too forcefully because he was afraid she would spread the word throughout the entire Ministry of Magic.
"Let's skip this topic."
"You were under Bagman's management, and he gave you a lot of freedom, even if you went on long trips and didn't come back."
("Then I'll definitely travel everywhere," Jorgins said.)
"Then you encountered Wormtail, and because of your keen insight, you recognized him, and out of curiosity, you started following him."
(And then I died?)
"Right."
