- I'm 12-year-old Neville Longbottom. - Yeah? I'm 16-year-old Neville Longbottom.
I'm Matthew Lewis, and I played Neville Longbottom in the Harry Potter films.
Over the last few weeks, several boxes have arrived at my house.
I was confused. Then this morning this arrived. It reads:
"Dear Matthew. In celebration of the 20th anniversary of LEGO Harry Potter -
- we are challenging you to use the LEGO sets to build your 20 favourite scenes."
Challenge accepted. Right. Scene 1.
Easy start. Harry meets Hagrid. "You're a wizard, Harry."
Platform 9 3/4. I remember this vividly.
I spent 9 3/4 hours standing on this platform.
It's in the film for less than a second.
The boats arriving at Hogwarts. "Welcome, students."
I remember this scene. They had to build a tank of water in the studio.
They put the boats in, and we sat there for a whole week.
Dumbledore in his very snazzy robes in his office. Who else? Main man Harry Potter.
"Our choices show what we truly are far more than our abilities." Wise words.
The great hall and the iconic Sorting Hat. Slytherin, Gryffindor. Superstar!
The chamber of secrets. Probably my favourite set from all the movies.
They built the entire thing and side tunnels. Here the basilisk is coming.
Harry's performance against the basilisk was fine.
As killing snakes with a sword of Gryffindor goes, it's up there -
- after seeing someone else do it better.
Next one. Dementors on the Hogwarts Express.
"I'm here for your souls!" And Lupin is like, "Yo! I've got chocolate."
Lupin saves the day.
The flying lesson. Harry and Draco. "You're looking good, Draco." Sorry, mate!
It's not funny falling from that height, is it? Been there.
This is where Neville was lifted up by Cornish pixies. I remember it vividly.
I had fishing rods attached to these rubber ears that would stretch them -
- as the pixies lifted me up. Why is it always me?
This scene took place on one of my favourite sets. Hermione in Snape's potions class.
It's actually one of my favourite LEGO sets.
This potions class folds up into a little book. Magic.
Another lesson. McGonagall's transfiguration -
- where Ron Weasley is about to attempt a very tricky spell. Vero veritas.
That was wrong. Vero verto. Ron's a magician.
Herbology class featuring the mandrake or mandragora.
Slughorn's party. "I hold it true, whate'er befall. I feel it when I sorrow most."
"'Tis better to serve than not be at the party at all."
I think that was my motivation when I shot the scene.
"Hey, Ron. I'm Lavender Brown. I happen to be your girlfriend." "Sweet!"
Dumbledore chilling in the astronomy tower. In walks Draco Malfoy.
"Mr. Malfoy, what are you doing here with a steely look and a wand in your hand? Oh."
At Hogsmeade, inside the Three Broomsticks everyone is enjoying a nice butter beer.
Outside we have Harry running through the busy streets of Hogsmeade.
You can't see him. He's in his invisibility cloak. I crack myself up.
Luna love declaration at the astronomy tower. "Where's Luna? I'm mad for her."
"We'll probably both be dead by dawn!"
The assembling of Dumbledore's army. It's like a cast photo in LEGO form.
Here I am. The sword of Gryffindor saving the day from you know who.
That was 20 iconic scenes to celebrate 20 years of magic with LEGO Harry Potter.
And now it is your turn. Get out there, building your favourite scenes.
Thanks for watching. Goodbye!
