While the sheer length of the fourth and fifth Harry Potter books may have delighted wizarding fans who wanted more time in the magical world, the action-packed stories posed a serious challenge for filmmakers. To keep the movies to a reasonable length, some details (and characters) had to be cut.
While you may have noticed the big ones -- Sirius' lack of screen time, or what seems like one year's worth of classes transformed into a quick montage -- there may be crucial changes you missed.
Our CineFix series What's The Difference takes you step-by-step and page-by-page through all the differences between your favorite movies and shows. Adaptations are a tricky game and something always gets changed, added or omitted in the process.
