Synopsis:

After years of battling against the evil Lord Voldemort, 17-year-old Harry Potter and his best friends, Ron Weasley and Hermione Granger, must set out on a dangerous mission to stop Voldemort once and for all. Harry and his friends must destroy Voldemort’s Horcuxes, which enable him to live on even after he is killed. To succeed on their mission, they must leave behind their friends and families to face old and new challenges and end the Dark wizard’s evil reign.

Intentions:

After I did my edit of Dune (Dune: The Complete Epic), I had the idea to do something similar for the Deathly Hallows films. In my research though I discovered a few other edits that individually aren’t what I wanted to do, but as a whole they tackled almost every change I wanted to make. I ended up using these edits as inspiration.

Change List:

Added a simple title card for myself at the beginning with music from Hogwarts Legacy. Moved the Rufus scene to the very beginning of the film. Added the Wizarding World logo from FB2. Recolored the scenes at Malfoy Manor. Transitioned to the WB logo from P1. Transitioned to the beginning of P1 but recut it to only include Ron & Hermione. Added the deleted Mr. Weasley scene. Transitioned to a title sequence I got from a trailer with music by Sebastien van der Rohe. Recut the beginning Harry scenes with the deleted Petunia & Dudley scenes and color corrected with the opening music from P2, “Lily’s Theme,” and “A New Beginning” from the end of P2. Cut the shot of Dumbledore falling. Recolored the scene of Harry in his room. Cut Harry running on top of the bus. Added back the shot of Dumbledore falling to be during Harry’s nightmare with some color correction to match. Recolored Harry leaving the burrow. Cut some of Ron’s lines after he convinces Harry not to leave. Added the extended lift scene at the Ministry with Ron, Harry and Arthur. Recolored the shot of the tent. Added the deleted scene where the horcruxes are discussed and Ron indicates saying Voldemort's name is taboo. Inserted the Hogwarts scene from the beginning of P2 and rescored it with “Snape & the Unbreakable Vow” from HBP. Added the Ron/Hermione rock throwing deleted scene. Cut Hermione telling Harry that they could stay out in the forest and grow old together. Moved the scene with Voldemort taking the wand to be before Malfoy Manor. Recolored all the Malfoy Manor scenes. Trimmed Dobby's last words to end with "Dobby is happy to be with his friend.” Transitioned between films using Dobby’s funeral. Added the Shell Cottage deleted scene. Added the extended beach scene with Luna. Added the Harry/Ginny marching deleted scene. Added the Lupin/Tonks deleted scene. Recolored the scene of Ron/Hermione entering the Chamber of Secrets. Recolored the shot of the Quidditch Pitch on fire. Added the deleted bridge scene. Recolored the bridge scene.
