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

Another distracting thing you just have to go with is the lack of continuity throughout the films. The geography of Hogwarts keeps changing, characters are constantly disappearing and reappearing and spells keep behaving different between the films.

This creates a number of major goofs throughout the films.

Meanwhile, various subplots, such as Grawp the Giant, are totally abandoned throughout the films and quite a few characters, such as Madam Hooch, Nearly Headless Nick (John Cleese) and Vincent Crabbe (Jamie Waylett) disappear from later films altogether (although the latter example was due to the actor's legal issues).
