Harry Potter and The Philosopher's Stone/Funny


From the book:

  • "Uncle Vernon made another funny noise, like a mouse being trodden on."
  • Dumbledore's pre-banquet speech:

"Welcome! Welcome to a new year at Hogwarts! Before we begin our banquet, I would like to say a few words. And here they are: Nitwit! Blubber! Oddment! Tweak! Thank you!"

  • It's a small one, but nonetheless the scene where Hagrid is in Gringotts and reaches into his pocket to find Harry's key, only to come up with a bunch of dog biscuits counts.
  • The Weasley Twins at the beginning.

"Don't cry, Ginny. We'll send you loads of owls.—"
"We'll send you a Hogwarts toilet seat!"
"GEORGE!"
"Only joking, Mum."

  • After Hagrid tells Harry and Hermione that he's given Norbert a teddy bear:

From inside the crate came ripping noises that sounded to Harry as though the teddy was having his head torn off.

  • Realizing that in the first book, Fred and George jinxed snowballs to hit Quirrell's turban, and that they were unknowingly smacking Voldemort in the face!!
  • Dumbledore's Chocolate Frog card "Professor Dumbledore enjoys chamber music and ten pin bowling."
  • This Brick Joke:

Dumbledore: "I believe your friends Misters Fred and George Weasley were responsible for trying to send you a lavatory seat. No doubt they thought it would amuse you. Madam Pomfrey, however, thought it might not be very hygienic, and confiscated it."

  • Jim Dale singing "Hoggy Warty Hogwarts" for the audiobook of Philosopher's Stone.
  • "While he drove, Uncle Vernon complained to Aunt Petunia. He liked to complain about things: people at work, Harry, the council, Harry, the bank, and Harry were just a few of his favorite subjects. This morning, it was motorcycles."

From the film:

  • When Hagrid knocks the door off its hinges: "Sorry 'bout that!"
    • Also when he's accidentally telling them loads of information about the Stone. "I shouldn'ta told you that! I should not have told you that!"
    • And he does it in the most casual tone possible.
  • "Troll in the dungeon!" scene. Especially the terror-stricken look on Malfoy's face.
