Harry Potter
Summary
TheHarry Pottermovies did the Death Eaters dirty , but the approaching HBO remake has the chance to make them far cooler , as well as better align with canyon . Voldemort ’s follower were often gentle to plunk out in the Warner Bros picture since they all had a rather specific look . Grungy , dirty , and thoroughly malevolent , it was a wonder the Ministry of Magic had such a problem figuring out who was a follower of the Dark Lord and who was n’t . Add on the fact that the Death Eaters of theHarry Pottermovies were far from the brightest of the crowd , and they did n’t make for peculiarly threatening baddie .
Of course , this was n’t the case for all the Death Eaters . In theHarry Pottermovies , Lucius Malfoy is sophisticated and sly , think himself to be the meridian of high - class wizarding society . This made it even strange that the military personnel would believe his greasy , bumbling fellow Death Eaters represent the glory of pure - pedigree elegance and power . at long last , this was n’t quite the case in theHarry Potterbooks , where Voldemort ’s privileged circle was never delineate how they were depicted on screen . The Death Eaters were the most frightening force the wizarding macrocosm had ever seen , andHBO’sHarry Potterremakecan furbish up them to this status .
The Fantastic Beasts franchise came after the Harry Potter movies wrapped , making the chronological order a bit confusing for Wizarding World fan .
The Harry Potter Remake Can Fix The Movies' ‘Dirty & Stupid’ Death Eaters
TheHarry Pottermovie created a stark ocular contrast between the Death Eaters and the practiced characters of the wizarding human race . Where individual like the Weasleys were blank , bright , and cheery , the Death Eaters looked like they had been surviving in the slums of Knockturn Alley for decades . Though characters were certainly described this direction in theHarry Potterbooks , they were n’t typically member of Voldemort ’s inner forget me drug . After all , theDark Lord ’s goal was to procure himself atop the gross - blood elite , using their generational wealth and position as a reflection of his own strength and power .
Since theHarry PotterTV reboot is take Harry ’s stallion storyfrom the top , HBO will have the opportunity to redefine how we see the Death Eaters . Rather than dirty scoundrel , it would be far skinny to canon for these Dark witches and wizards to be more like the Malfoy family — Dark and menacing in a sophisticated , untouchably moneyed variety of way . After all , Voldemort favored the former - money , pure - blood wizarding families for his Death Eaters . The rougher , low - class followers were n’t allowed to invite Dark Marks or consider themselves among the Dark Lord ’s inner circle . Rather , they were just a disposable fighting military force .
Though theHarry Pottermovies seem to entail thatanyfollower of Lord Voldemort was a Death Eater , that was n’t the case in the playscript . The Dark Lord had hundreds within the wizarding community loyal to him since some humiliated - class family were manipulated into believe that Muggles were the grounds for their misfortunes . However , only those who proved themselves hefty , pure - blooded , or wealthy were appropriate to call themselves Death Eaters . They were branded with Voldemort ’s mug , allowed in on hole-and-corner meetings , and believed themselves to be their headmaster ’s true " friend . "
A prime example of the difference in Voldemort ’s follower is Fenrir Greyback . Though he appeared to bea Death Eater in theHarry Pottermovies , the books assign that he was not allowed a Dark Mark nor a place at Voldemort ’s table . The mavin was common , filthy , vulgar , and , as a werewolf , count a contemn half - breed . Still , he was utilitarian to Voldemort and was , therefore , permitted to take part in certain missions . The same is true for the abductor , who were also assume to be Death Eaters in theHarry Potter and the Deathly Hallowsmovies . The al-Qur’an depict them as stupid , dirty , and solely ugly of standing in Voldemort ’s presence . Still , they fought for him .
Some of Voldemort ’s follower were set aside to wear Death Eater attire but were never given Dark Marks .
Cunning & Sophisticated Death Eaters Would Be Far More Frightening In The Harry Potter Remake
TheHarry Pottermovies established the idea that " dirty and stupid equals evil,“and though this works for Voldemort ’s lowly follower , it significantly minimizes the threat associated with the Death Eaters . There were certainly times in the Quran when characters like the grownup Crabbe and Goyle were bear on to as stupid , but they were still sophisticated , wealthy , and powerful , which is why they were such close Friend to Lucius Malfoy . Sincethe themes ofHarry Potterhinge on the big businessman associate with social class , it would be far more effective for the Death Eaters of theHarry Potterreboot to reflect this .
This would drive home the fact that , though he is their leader , Voldemort is n’t really a member of the wizarding elite .
This would also allow for some far cooler villain . Bumbling and dirty is more comic than frightening , but hag and magician who are tricky , sophisticated , and sure of themselves would mean a delicious form of evilness that consultation traditionally eff to detest . to boot , this would drive home the fact that , though he is their leader , Voldemort is n’t really a member of the wizarding elite . He ’s a short , orphaned half - profligate using pure - blood cacoethes to gain ground wealthy , urbane followerswho are eager to kiss his boots . If theHarry Potterreboot can catch this , it would mean a dissimilar quality of Death Eaters than has previously been ascertain on blind .
