<p>So, you think you could’ve defeated Voldemort solo? <em>Please.</em> Even the Chosen One needed a Hermione to fact-check his hunches and a Ron to complain about the food. The <em>Harry Potter</em> series isn’t just about magic—it’s a masterclass in friendship, proving that love and loyalty can outshine even the Killing Curse. Grab your Butterbeer, and let’s dissect why friendship is the <em>real</em> Sorcerer’s Stone of this saga.</p>

<p><strong>Movie Miss</strong>:<br>The books show the Weasleys’ financial struggles and Percy’s betrayal. The movies? <em>“Let’s just focus on the Burrow burning down… for drama.”</em></p>

<p><strong>Key Quote</strong>:<br><em>“After all this time?” “Always.”</em></p>



<p><strong>Draco and Harry</strong>:<br>They’re no Ron and Harry, but Draco’s hesitation to kill Dumbledore (<em>and</em> his nod to Harry in the <em>Deathly Hallows</em> epilogue) shows even rivals can find respect.</p>



<p><strong>Movie Flaw</strong>:<br>Snape’s Worst Memory scene cuts young Lily, erasing the heart of his motivation. <em>Cool, cool.</em></p>

<ul class="wp-block-list">
<li><strong>It’s Okay to Lean on Others</strong>: Harry’s “chosen one” gig would’ve drowned him without Ron and Hermione’s floatation devices (and Hermione’s <em>Aguamenti</em>).</li>
