On hand in Chamber of Secrets as a lovesick little girl/vessel for Tom Riddle's madness (following her cameo in The Sorcerer's Stone), Ginny and Harry's eventual romance captivated us. It's not every villain that can manage to hide in plain sight for an entire movie before finally revealing himself. These prequels are showcasing Grindelwald's reign of terror in the early 20th Century and his troubled relationship with close friend-turned-rival Albus Dumbledore. It's the Fantastic Beasts movies where Grindelwald is truly coming into his own as a villain. He only has one brief appearance in the main Harry Potter series, though one where he manages to stymie even Voldemort himself. His reputation may have eventually been overshadowed by Voldemort, but there was a time when Grindelwald was the most feared villain in all the wizarding world. The fact that Dobby, in his dying moments, clearly had no regrets about literally giving his all for his friend Harry resulted in one of the most touching moments in the series. But even those who only knew Dobby from The Chamber of Secrets film were probably affected by his sacrifice in The Deathly Hallows Part 1, where he proved crucial in freeing Harry and his friends from a horrific scenario, only to fall victim to Bellatrix Lestrange in the process. In the books, we saw more of how kind-hearted and loyal Dobby was, particularly towards Harry Potter, to whom he was indebted for his freedom. But Dobby's intentions were always noble, and his determination to help Harry, despite the short term consequences, was commendable.ĭobby's role in the film series is far smaller than in the books, where he made frequent appearances in-between Chamber of Secrets and Deathly Hallows. He was a strange, little creature with a habit of hurting himself, who made things very difficult for Harry Potter as he began his second year at Hogwarts. When we met Dobby, admittedly, he was pretty annoying. to be with friends.' It's difficult to not get a bit misty-eyed recalling the moment when Dobby the house-elf said those words in Deathly Hallows Part 1, which were among his last.
