12 Huge Problems With Harry Potter Movies (Nobody Admits)
9. Harry’s First Quidditch Match – The Philosopher’s Stone
Madame Hooch might be the worst referee in the history of magical games and sports. She starts Harry’s first Quidditch match with a blow from her whistle and then disappears for the rest of the game.
The Slytherins’ tactics are barbaric, to say the least. Oliver Wood is walloped with a Bludger, and Angelina Johnson is forced into one of the stands by two of her opponents. Both of them are rendered unconscious, yet Madam Hooch does absolutely nothing in response to these illegal actions.
Whilst the violence of the Slytherin team is rather amusing, they really shouldn’t have been allowed to get away with it. Their actions are totally illegal in the context of the sport, yet for whatever reason, neither Madame Hooch nor any of the other teachers did anything to stop them.
