Lists about the wizarding world that captured the imaginations of children and adults alike and forever changed the way we view owls, brooms, and round eyeglasses.

Fantasy

Hermione Granger is smart, capable, and caring. She keeps her cool in dangerous situations, and is always there to help you finish that last scroll for History of Magic. Hermione quickly became many readers&#39; favorite character from the Harry Potter books (spawning plenty of <a href="https://www.ranker.com/list/hermione-granger-memes/linda-meyers" target="_blank">memes</a>&nbsp;and <a href="https://www.ranker.com/list/harry-potter-fan-theories/lisa-waugh" target="_blank">fan theories</a> in the process)&ndash; and who does she end up with? Ronald Bilius Weasley.

Really, J. K. Rowling? You&#39;re going to have this frizzy-haired angel&nbsp;end up with the series&#39; comic relief? At least have her settle for the franchise&#39;s&nbsp;title character. Plenty of fans think Rowling did Hermione dirty by having her end up with Ron, and that opinion goes way beyond just shipping Harry and Hermione. More <a href="http://www.ranker.com/list/harry-potter-fan-theories/lisa-waugh" target="_blank">insane fan theories</a> ship Harry and Draco Malfoy than Ron and Hermione, for goodness&#39; sake. And who&#39;s even checking for Harry&#39;s canon significant other, Ginny Weasley?

It&#39;s clear that Hermione and Ron were a huge mistake. Even <a href="http://www.ranker.com/list/jk-rowling-harry-potter-reveals/lisa-waugh" target="_blank">Rowling revealed</a> she thinks she messed up her romantic pairings. From their compatible personalities to their undeniable chemistry, check out all the reasons why Harry Potter and Hermione Granger should have ended up together.

Fan Theories

There&rsquo;s nothing like a batch of Harry Potter fan theories straight out of the piping hot cauldron of the internet to make the day seem brighter. The Potter books and films are seemingly made for fan theories, with new ones popping up daily. Rowling&rsquo;s (or should we call her Rita?) vibrant world is dissected all the time despite the fact that the first book, Harry Potter and the Sorcerer&rsquo;s Stone, was published in 1997. Even Rowling enjoys Harry Potter universe theories. She particularly likes the one about Dumbledore being Death in the Deathly Hallows story of the Peverell brothers. She said, &ldquo;It fits.&rdquo;

But does the fan theory that Ginny slipped Harry a magical love roofie fit? Because for the longest time, it seemed like she was the only one carrying a torch, and Harry couldn&rsquo;t have cared less. How about this one: Dumbledore is actually Ron? And George Weasley is Willy Wonka? Yep, there are some pretty wild, yet fun, Harry Potter theories out there.

There are quite a few strongly-held Harry Potter fan theories that make sense. Like how Draco Malfoy is a werewolf. He&rsquo;s got that tortured thing going on. Is this the Dark Lord&rsquo;s doing? Did Voldy have Fenrir take a chunk out of Malfoy because he failed to deliver the prophecy, and this was something that happened to Death Eater&rsquo;s children when they messed up?

And with the addition of the <a href="https://www.ranker.com/list/upcoming-movies-fall-2018/ranker-film" target="_blank">upcoming&nbsp;Fantastic Beasts series</a>, new theories have popped up. Is Credence Barebone Voldemort&#39;s&nbsp;dad? Is Percival Graves actually Gellert Grindelwald? Did Newt Scamander&nbsp;give Hagrid&nbsp;Aragog? So many theories sprouting up and&nbsp;will only grow as the five-film series rolls on.&nbsp;

Which Harry Potter fan theory makes the most sense? Point your wand at the ones you think are most likely to be true and levitate them up to the top (with your votes, that is).

Hermione Granger

The top Harry Potter characters come from a rich universe crafted on the page and adapted to the screen, giving us some of the <a href="http://www.ranker.com/list/best-film-adaptations-of-young-adult-novels/randolph">best movie adaptations from books</a> of all time. Since the Harry Potter universe is one where there are 75 (75!) main characters in the Harry Potter movies and books, there&#39;s little surprise that they are some of the most beloved (and hated) characters of all time.

That said, the question in front of us is &quot;who are the best Harry Potter characters?&quot; and it is a tough one to answer. Do you go for the obvious and choose Harry the hero, or pay respect to Voldemort, one of the <a href="http://www.ranker.com/crowdranked-list/the-best-movie-villains-of-all-time">best movie villains of all time</a>? Do you go for brains with Hermione or charm with George &amp; Fred? These are the questions we&#39;re confronted with when attempting to name the greatest Harry Potter characters ever.

Since both the Harry Potter books and movies can be taken into account, it&#39;s up to you to decide if you want to vote for the popular Harry Potter characters as you imagined them or as they were portrayed on screen. Since the books are among the <a href="http://www.ranker.com/list/best-selling-book-series-of-all-time/jeff419">best selling series of all time</a>, there&#39;s a good chance you&#39;ve read them and can compare notes with the movies. Your choice is yours, though; nobody&#39;s breaking out the Imperius curse so cast your vote for your favorite characters and make vote down the ones you don&#39;t like. And if there&#39;s a supporting Harry Potter character you feel belongs on the list, make sure to add them to this list of the top <a href="https://www.ranker.com/list/luckiest-harry-potter-characters/renata-carmen" target="_blank">Harry Potter characters.</a> Of course, if you&#39;re forgetting some of the names or need pictures to jog your memory, you can use the list as a reference.

Child Stars

When J.K. Rowling&rsquo;s wildly-popular and bestselling Harry Potter book series was adapted for the screen, fans finally got to see their favorite characters in the flesh. The Harry Potter universe practically had a meltdown as fans lined up for hours outside of theaters &ndash; just as they had outside book stores &ndash; to see the movies based on the books they had come to love. The Harry Potter movies made stars out of their <a href="https://www.ranker.com/list/cast-of-harry-potter-first-vs-last-movie/mallory-weiler" target="_blank">younger cast members </a>and introduced all kinds of notable British actors to a new generation. So what&#39;s the Harry Potter cast up to today?&nbsp;

The eight-picture Harry Potter run has seen the likes of BAFTA, Oscar, and Golden Globe winners, screen and stage legends, knights, and even a grand dame. You probably heard about Emma Watson&#39;s new duties as a UN Ambassador, but how about Luna Lovegood? What has she been in since Potter? And what about Neville Longbottom? Is he still a mousy looking, timid boy? (Hint: the answer is NO.)

Since&nbsp;the book and film series have come to a close, the Harry Potter <a href="https://www.ranker.com/list/harry-potter-actors-share-their-memories/klindell" target="_blank">actors have had plenty to say</a> about their experiences on set, but what are thos<a href="https://www.ranker.com/list/cast-of-harry-potter-first-vs-last-movie/mallory-weiler" target="_blank">e actors up to&nbsp;now</a>? Let&rsquo;s see if the Sorting Hat has been kind in real life.

Upon its release, the fantastical world of <a href="http://www.ranker.com/list/best-harry-potter-books/ranker-books" target="_blank">J.K. Rowling&#39;s&nbsp;</a><a href="http://www.ranker.com/list/best-harry-potter-books/ranker-books" target="_blank">Harry Potter</a> stole everyone&#39;s hearts. Years later, we&#39;re still finding out about ideas&nbsp;J.K.&nbsp;Rowling&nbsp;left&nbsp;out&nbsp;of Harry&nbsp;Potter&nbsp;books.

Part of <a href="https://www.ranker.com/crowdranked-list/best-to-worst-harry-potter-films-as-rated-by-fans-" target="_blank">the series&#39;&nbsp;massive success</a> stems from&nbsp;the wizarding world&#39;s wildly intricate rules and <a href="https://www.ranker.com/list/things-book-readers-hate-about-the-harry-potter-movies/stephanroget" target="_blank">rich history</a>; one&nbsp;that&nbsp;might have been quite&nbsp;different if J.K. Rowling didn&#39;t have a team of highly skilled editors by her side.

There are a number of Harry&nbsp;Potter&nbsp;plot&nbsp;points&nbsp;J.K. Rowling&nbsp;didn&#39;t&nbsp;use, and it&#39;s probably for the best. From a Sorting Hat that was little more than a lackluster collection of straws, to killing off the only admirable father figure in the whole series, these cut scenes from the Harry Potter books would have unarguably changed the wizarding world for the worse. 

Thankfully, these&nbsp;abandoned Harry Potter ideas were cut more thoroughly&nbsp;than Nearly Headless Nick&#39;s neck.

In addition to doing the obligatory press junkets and endless rounds on late-night talk shows, actors take tons of promo pictures while filming as part of the movie’s marketing plan. Since the Harry Potter franchise pumped out&nbsp;eight films, Warner Bros. made&nbsp;hundreds of delightful Harry Potter promotional images. These images are used for various purposes: actors use them for autograph signings, the studios&nbsp;for product tie-ins, magazines for&nbsp;their coverage of the film, and so on.However, because Harry Potter takes place in a fantasy universe&nbsp;with wizards who wield wands and ride brooms, some of their promo pictures border on the silly. In a world where the lead villain lacks a nose, things were bound to get a little uncomfortable.&nbsp;These awkward Harry Potter cast photos also show a timeline of <a href="http://www.ranker.com/list/harry-potter-then-and-now/lisa-waugh">how the series grew up</a> from its humble beginning&nbsp;to worldwide blockbuster. Behind all the smoke and mirrors and CGI, there are only actors, wondering how long they have to hold <a href="http://www.ranker.com/list/awkward-model-poses/nathandavidson">this ridiculous pose</a> for.

Funny

Rupert Grint&nbsp;(Ron)&nbsp;has perhaps the most expressive face in the entire&nbsp;Harry Potter&nbsp;film series. So it should come as no surprise that the internet is a treasure trove of hilarious Ron Weasley memes. Whether playing on his fears or struggles with schoolwork, with Ron, you know there&#39;s always going to be a ridiculously comical reaction shot.

Check out the best memes involving the beloved, red-headed wizard below, and don&#39;t forget to vote up your favorites.

Harry Potter

When you think of the&nbsp;<a href="https://www.ranker.com/crowdranked-list/best-to-worst-harry-potter-films-as-rated-by-fans-" target="_blank">Harry Potter&nbsp;franchise</a>, you probably don't think of there being too many insults. The series is all about a young boy triumphing over adversity, but he doesn't get there easily and, along the way, he runs afoul of some nasty people who don't have a problem lobbing insult after insult at <a href="https://www.ranker.com/crowdranked-list/harry-potter-characters" target="_blank">Harry and his friends</a>.Sure, there's the typical calling out of someone as a &quot;Mudblood&quot;, but there are many more <a href="https://www.ranker.com/list/harry-potter-jokes/jack-napier" target="_blank">amazing Harry Potter insults</a> and one-liners thrown around throughout the nine films in the series that deserve some attention. However, the list to follow features&nbsp;the best of the best, so prepare to be insulted like only a Muggle can with these brilliantly funny and clever lines from the&nbsp;Harry Potter&nbsp;franchise!Have a favorite? Vote up the best insults from the films below, and remember you can down vote&nbsp;any quotes you don't find as funny.&nbsp;

Believe it or not, there actually were some British people who weren&#39;t in Harry Potter. <a href="https://www.ranker.com/list/how-harry-potter-actors-got-cast/tyler-mitchell" target="_blank">Behind-the-scenes stories are shared about the actors</a> who nearly landed parts in the series, but didn&#39;t due to scheduling or a director&#39;s vision. Some Americans even got close to snagging some famous roles, though any fan who knows their Harry Potter facts can tell you that author J.K. Rowling wouldn&#39;t have stood for that.

It&#39;s fun to speculate about some of the actors offered Harry Potter roles. What if Harry was American? What if Hermione hadn&rsquo;t been played by Emma Watson? What if Sir Ian McKellen&nbsp;had been Dumbledore? Even the late, great Robin Williams numbers among the actors almost in Harry Potter.

True, some actors&nbsp;missed out on big roles in the <a href="http://www.ranker.com/list/disturbing-harry-potter-facts/nathan-gibson">Harry Potter universe</a>. But the movies are arguably perfect the way they are, continuing to win over viewers and inspire&nbsp;countless pieces of <a href="http://www.ranker.com/list/harry-potter-as-anime-fan-art/crystal-brackett">fan art</a>. Most movie-goers wouldn&#39;t have their Harry Potter casts any other way.

The Harry Potter series features some of the most memorable villains of all time.&nbsp;Among the most powerful are the <a href="https://www.ranker.com/list/death-eater-memes/ddefrank" target="_blank">Death Eaters</a>, Voldemort&#39;s followers, who believe&nbsp;pure-blooded wizards should rule with unfettered power over all others.

When their organization&nbsp;takes over the Ministry of Magic, most wizards are forced to go into hiding or face unfair trials. Voldemort&#39;s followers are some of the most depraved wizards of all time, but even within their wicked company, some wizards stand out as particularly powerful. Who do you think are the strongest Death Eaters in the Harry Potter series? Vote up the worst of the dark wizards.

The animals from the Harry Potter series are nearly as influential&nbsp;as the wizards themselves, and have become characters we care about as much as their owners (with a few exceptions). Who didn&#39;t shed a tear when Harry lost Hedwig, wait anxiously&nbsp;to learn of Buckbeak&#39;s fate, or take sides in the Team Scabbers vs.&nbsp;Team Crookshanks debate? The relationships the characters&nbsp;have with their animals often mimic&nbsp;the feelings we have for our own pets in the Muggle world.&nbsp;

Muggle animals are a bit dull in comparison with the&nbsp;Harry Potter&nbsp;creatures, however.&nbsp;They can&#39;t guard the Sorcerer&#39;s Stone like Fluffy the three-headed dog, burst into flames and regenerate like Fawkes the phoenix, or act as the ultimate tattletale like Argus Filch&#39;s cat Mrs. Norris. Many of the&nbsp;<a href="https://www.ranker.com/list/harry-potter-creatures-list/anna-lindwasser" target="_blank">beasts&nbsp;in </a><a href="https://www.ranker.com/list/harry-potter-creatures-list/anna-lindwasser" target="_blank">Harry Potter</a> have magical qualities that make them highly desirable pets.&nbsp;

The pets of Harry Potter are not all&nbsp;created equal. While Hedwig and Crookshanks are easy to envy, other animals - such as&nbsp;Hagrid&#39;s entire array of pets - might be more trouble than they&#39;re worth. But perhaps you&#39;re a real animal lover like Hagrid, and all creatures are cuddly in your mind.&nbsp;Whatever your animal outlook, vote up the pets you&#39;d definitely adopt from the Magical Menagerie.

Fan Made

Pretty much everyone on this planet&nbsp;familiar with pop culture is also familiar with the&nbsp;wizarding adventures of Harry Potter,&nbsp;but&nbsp;anime Harry Potter&nbsp;is a whole&nbsp;new realm&nbsp;of magic. Combining <a href="http://www.ranker.com/list/popular-characters-as-ninja-turtles-fan-art/brandon-michaels">two beloved pieces of pop culture</a>, this list is stacked&nbsp;with Harry Potter cartoon characters reimagined in glorious anime style. Complete with heroes and villains, this list displays how fandom <a href="http://www.ranker.com/list/harry-potter-fan-theories/lisa-waugh">can bring about entirely new layers to a franchise</a>.Some pieces capture Harry and co. in cutesy anime form while others take a serious approach, ensuring all bases are covered for your viewing pleasure. If you thought the thrill&nbsp;ended with the seventh book, these anime renditions of the Harry Potter universe will change your mind.

While the heroes of the Harry Potter universe can use their magic to travel in a variety of ways we can't, that doesn't mean they're always comfortable. Getting from one place to another, even with magic, can be a bit of a nightmare. Even magically-enhanced vehicles have flaws. While some forms of Harry Potter transportation are better than others, even their best is not much better than our real-life versions.Consider this: Harry Potter broomsticks seem cool from the outside, but unless you've got a good grip, you'll go tumbling right off. Flying cars can crash. And Harry Potter apparition, while convenient, can also make you leave bits and pieces of your body behind, a horrific process called &quot;splinching.&quot; Leaving half an eyebrow behind, as Ron did in his apparition test, might not be so bad - but a faulty spell could mean you leave half of yourself behind, killing you.Sure, <a href="http://www.ranker.com/list/fantastic-harry-potter-foods-you-wish-you-could-chow-down-on/shanell-mouland">wizard desserts might be great</a> and it would be awesome to have <a href="http://www.ranker.com/list/harry-potter-spells-list/lisa-waugh">magical powers</a>, but taking a closer look at the average ways that wizards get around leaves much to be desired. Unless you want to ride a rickety minecart into the bowels of a bank, scrabble for grip on the back of a hippogriff, or end up sick and lost thanks to an unfortunate Floo Powder incident, it might be best just to play it safe and take the bus - the regular bus, that is, not the Knight Bus.

An abundance of <a href="https://www.ranker.com/list/best-harry-potter-insults/ranker-film" target="_blank">funny comebacks</a> in&nbsp;Harry Potter&nbsp;exist&nbsp;throughout the franchise, some as injurious as an Unforgivable Curse. In addition to his habit of sacrificing himself for the greater good, one of Harry’s most endearing qualities is his unparalleled skill as a sassmaster, a trait shared by many other characters in the Hogwarts universe. From Snape to Dudley to the Weasley twins, no wizard or muggle&nbsp;felt&nbsp;safe from savage Harry Potter comebacks. In fact, Harry Potter comeback quotes are&nbsp;widely prevalent in the wizarding world, with Ron, Hermione, and the brilliantly&nbsp;brutal Professor McGonagall delivering scorching burns even Madame Pomfrey&nbsp;can't soothe.While some of these Harry Potter comeback quotes only appeared in the films, most&nbsp;can be found in the books, where author J.K. Rowling unleashes the full extent of her burn prowess. Thanks to her expertise, funny&nbsp;Harry Potter&nbsp;quotes shine brightly alongside <a href="http://www.ranker.com/list/harry-potter-and-the-deathly-hallows-quotes/movie-and-tv-quotes">the best quotes in the Harry Potter series</a>.&nbsp;Take your cues from <a href="http://www.ranker.com/list/harry-potter-jokes/jack-napier">this hilarious series</a>, and utilize&nbsp;these savage Harry Potter comebacks to shut down the&nbsp;Dursleys in your life. There's a new troll in the dungeon, and his name is Harry Potter.

Severus Snape - Slain Over The Elder Wand

The Harry Potter series redefined children&#39;s publishing when it hit the market in 1997. Created by J.K. Rowling, the series follows the adventures of a young boy named Harry Potter who discovers that he&#39;s a wizard. While the series has many elements, Rowling insists that the books are mainly about death. Which makes sense: the&nbsp;Harry Potter books can be truly bleak at times.

There are many, many tragic fates in the Harry Potter series. The forces of good and evil are in conflict for the entirety of the series, which leads to some harsh Harry Potter character ends.

Many Harry Potter demises vary in method and the impact on the overall story. Some characters were finished off in combat.&nbsp;Others were tormented by dark magic,&nbsp;and many passed tragically.&nbsp;The hardest ones to handle were fan-favorite characters, which resulted in broken hearts around the world.

&quot;Improviso&quot; isn&#39;t a Harry Potter spell, but it sure sounds like one, and the term is appropriate for&nbsp;the film versions of J.K. Rowling&#39;s stories about the boy wizard. With an impressive cast of British actors, both kids and adults, the series&#39;&nbsp;eight films were bound to contain some unscripted Harry Potter moments. Over the years, interviews with various cast members and crew have revealed some of the unscripted lines and moments in Harry Potter.

The improvisers include&nbsp;<a href="https://www.ranker.com/list/what-harry-potter-cast-thinks-of-daniel-radcliffe/math-erao" target="_blank">Daniel Radcliffe</a>, Ralph Fiennes, Jason Isaacs, and even Emma Watson, despite playing perhaps the franchise&#39;s&nbsp;least spontaneous character, Hermione Granger. Holy cricket!

Throughout the Harry Potter films, fans are introduced to&nbsp;a wide array of powerful witches and wizards, some of whom&nbsp;are much nicer than others. When the chips are&nbsp;down, which character from the wizarding world would you most want to have your back? Below are the top contenders for the most powerful wizard in Harry Potter.

You&#39;ll be able to select your choice of magical back-up from&nbsp;characters in the Harry Potter series and&nbsp;the Fantastic Beasts franchise. Would you remain true to the powers of good, represented by Harry and Dumbledore, or jump ship to the dark side by teaming up with&nbsp;villains like Voldemort and&nbsp;Grindlewald?&nbsp;Vote up the characters you&#39;d most like to have on your side if you ever found yourself in the midst&nbsp;of a magical showdown.

Severus Snape was infamous for his glares and snide comments... and also for his incredibly secretive, emotional journey throughout the Harry Potter series. Where would we be without Alan Rickman as the embodiment of the villain that we all learned to love - Professor Severus Snape? He brought the sneers, attitude, and sass of one of J.K. Rowling's most controversial characters to life, and now we're bringing you this definitive list of Snape's best glares. Whether you loved to hate him, or defended him as a&nbsp;misunderstood bad guy, this list of GIFs will bring back all of the Half-Blood Prince's most sassy memories.From his incredulous looks at the arrogant Mr. Potter, to the look he gave Professor Lupin when he stole the position of Defense Against the Dark Arts teacher away from him, to commanding his potions class to turn to page 394, all your favorite Snape from Harry Potter glares are here. We'd like to honor Snape's trademark sneer, greasy hair, and immaculate robes in this tribute to the late Alan Rickman, in one of his most unforgettable roles. &nbsp;There will be no foolish wand-waving or silly incantations in this list. Vote up the best Snape glares below, and be sure to let us know what you think in the comment section.&nbsp;Will we remember him fondly? &quot;Always.&quot;&nbsp;

The seven Harry Potter&nbsp;films first debuted in 2001, with&nbsp;the final installment arriving a decade later in 2011. For leads like <a href="https://www.ranker.com/list/harry-potter-actors-franchise/garri-chaverst" target="_blank">Daniel Radcliffe and Emma Watson</a>, a lot has changed over those years. Not only did they gain huge amounts of fame, but they also grew up over the span of the filming since it was in right smack-dab in the middle of their formative years. And while the&nbsp;Harry Potter&nbsp;main cast spanned in ages 11 to 66, the most noticeably growth was with the younger cast members.&nbsp;

Like with many other franchises and series, we&#39;ve witnessed many stars <a href="https://www.ranker.com/list/harry-potter-then-and-now/lisa-waugh" target="_blank">grow up in the spotlight</a>, but looking at the stark differences between their first appearance and their last in a particular role brings all of that change into the limelight.&nbsp;&nbsp;

The Universe of Harry Potter

Most of the time, it&rsquo;s a controversial thing to say that a movie is better than the book it&rsquo;s based on. Film adaptations have a reputation for dumbing down their source material, serving as shortcuts for lazy students trying to cut corners on their book reports. But both the Harry Potter books and the films based on the series have equal standing in the hearts of many Potter fanatics. The films give expression to the stories we love, sometimes even eclipsing the original work of J.K. Rowling in the eyes of her loyal fans.

So which of the installments in the Harry Potter film series outshines the original novels? And where do the movie versions fall short? We broke it down with this handy scatterplot, comparing the results of two Ranker lists: <a class="edS-cl" href="https://www.ranker.com/list/best-harry-potter-books/ranker-books?ref=internalCrossLinking_keyword">All Harry Potter Books</a>, Ranked Best to Worst, and All Harry Potter Movies, Ranked Best to Worst. Keep in mind, when we say a movie or book is &ldquo;bad,&rdquo; we mean relative to the other entries in their respective series: every book and movie on these lists was voted up by 64% of voters or more.
