HP: Goblet of Fire glitch? - Blu-ray Forum

Chiyo_chichi · 11-26-2011, 04:08 AM

I sat down to watch my copy for the first time tonight, and at 58:08, I noticed the number 750 flash across the scene for about a second. Is this a known thing?

What the hell...

I just put my copy in, and yes it is there. It's just a fraction of a second, and I've never noticed it before, but it is definitely there.

They do this with all of the Harry Potter movies

The number corresponds to your region, I remember people were saying it was used to track pirated copies, but I don't know if there's any truth to that

You can see a number in POA when you see the Sirius Black poster for the first time.

It's like Blair Witch 2: Book of Shadows, they got hidden crap throughout the movie.

I see it, too.

Don't tell the religious right... they already condemn the film for promoting witchcraft... now they will say Satan changed his phone number from 666 to 750.

I just don't like Harry Potter in general and I think Rowling is extremely arrogant.

As said before, Potter films are known for this, however, in Azkaban, the number was seen only on the DVD version, the Blu-ray version is corrected

I see..so then there's nothing 'wrong' with my copy then. I was worried for a moment. Wonder why they didn't correct the bd version of GoF too?

Are there any other text/numbers in the other movies? I didn't notice anything in films 1-3.

I think they are okay but nothing special... then again, my parents didn't think Star Wars was very special either. As for Rowling, I guess eh earned the right to be arrogant, since very few authors ever hit it as big as she did. I don't care if she's arrogant or not, it's all about the product for me, not the person. If so, I wouldnt like Mel Gibson films, or Tom Cruise, or Polanski, or...

I agree with this more than almost anything I've ever read from you,

although Mel is starting to test my 'patience/blocking it out for the movie' vibe.

Edit: Sorry, I just noticed how inappropriate this line of talk is. I have only ever noticed this one glitch, since you pointed it out. Thanks a lot.
