10 Tiny Annoying Details In Movies You Can't Unsee

Growing up, it was the dream of all children across Britain that, on our 10th birthdays, we would receive a letter from Hogwarts informing us that we secretly had magical abilities.

This ultimately crushing hope was a result of Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone; the story of a young, orphaned boy whose entire life was flipped upside-down in one night. Discovering he has magical abilities, Harry leaves for Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry to hone his abilities and, unbeknown to him at the time, fight the man that slew his parents. First, however, came the ceremony that would decide which of the four houses Harry would enter.

Following his pleas with the Sorting Hat to put him in any house bar Slytherin, Harry was awarded with a place in house Gryffindor alongside his friends, Ron and Hermione. We've all heard of jumping for joy, but it seems our young wizarding prodigy took this all quite too literally.

When approaching the table, Harry initially sits down next to Ron on the right-hand side of the table. In the very next shot Harry is on the left, eating his dinner in between Hermione and Percy. Whether Harry walked the entire way back around the table or they've added parkour to the Hogwarts academic schedule, this seat switch is certainly jarring.
