Harry Potter Series - Trailer Vs. Film Comparison by The Grizzly Wizard

[Dumbledore]

In order to promote and advertise the Harry Potter films prior to its release, small clips are released on various media platforms and as theatre or webpage advertisements to the audience to give a peek into what the story is all about. It also sparks up inquisitiveness among the viewers, who must watch the film in order to know the complete story.

 

These clips are in the form of trailers, teasers and theatrical trailers, and are often very closely related. YouTuber 'The Grizzly Wizard' has recently released his trailer vs film video comparison, which shows you just how different the final cut of the film can be. Or, how some scenes don't make the final cut.

Check out the videos below.

 

A few videos back, I mentioned that there are still lots of Harry Potter deleted scenes that haven't been released officially on home media, but were featured in the promotional trailers. In this episode, we compare the three Philosopher's Stone/Sorcerer's Stone trailers to identify the scenes that have been updated, cut down and removed completely from the final edit.

 

In this video, we compare the three Chamber of Secrets trailers with the final version of the film. As with all films, footage used in promotional trailers don't always make it to the final film, nor do they make it to the officially released deleted scenes.
