18 Crazy Facts You Have To Accept To Enjoy The Wizarding World Movies

Hogwarts is an amazing creation and a place viewers will be always be excited to revisit, but it is also an incredibly dangerous school. If safety inspectors visited the school would be shut down in a heartbeat.

This is particularly evident during the first film. A three-headed dog is kept where students could easily have run into it and the students are taken for detention in the Forbidden Forest, where they could have been killed. Seriously?!

Meanwhile, in the Quidditch games in the first two films, several players are violently knocked off their brooms and no-one disciplines those responsible at all. Madam Hooch (Zoe Wanamaker), who referees the game seen in the first film, is maybe the worst referee in film history. Speaking of staff members, why does the school keep hiring so many dangerous individuals as teachers?

It doesn't end there. In The Chamber of Secrets the school doesn't close even though a dangerous attacker is putting all the students at risk and for some inexplicable reason Dumbledore allows the Dementors to guard the school in the third film. As for the Triwizard Tournament, the fact that such a competition was allowed to happen at all is inexplicable.
