** Moody gives a DeathGlare to Fred as a respons. Fred awkwardly shuffles from side to side and says "Just trying to diffuse the tension!"

** Fred's "When I get married, I won't be bothering with this. You can all wear what you like and I'll put a Full Body-Bind Curse on Mum until it's over" — [[FunnyAneurysmMoment until you realise how the final war against Voldemort unfolds for him]].

** If you look behind [=McGonagall=] as she's speaking to Neville and Seamus, [[FreezeFrameBonus you can see]] Slughorn [[INeedAFreakingDrink taking a swig out of flask]] as everyone gets ready for hell to break loose.

* If you look behind [=McGonagall=] as she's speaking to Professor Flitwick, [[FreezeFrameBonus you can see]] Slughorn [[INeedAFreakingDrink taking a swig out of flask]] as everyone gets ready for hell to break loose.

* Harry is searching Umbridge's office and finds a book titled ''When Muggles Attack''.

* Any of the Polyjuice Potion sequences — Harry, Ron, and Hermione looking freaked out in the guise of Ministry employees (one of whom is the normally badass Runcorn) and then Hermione-as-Bellatrix, trying ''so'' hard to look dangerous.
-->'''Hermione!Bellatrix:''' ''[awkwardly]'' Good morning.
-->'''Griphook:''' ''[under the Invisibility Cloak]'' "Good morning? ''Good morning??''" You're supposed to be [[AxeCrazy Bellatrix Lestrange,]] not a dewey-eyed schoolgirl!
** The story behind this scene is hilarious on a meta level. To do it, they had Creator/EmmaWatson play the scene, trying to imitate Bellatrix's mannerisms, and Creator/HelenaBonhamCarter trying to replicate the imitation. So, what we saw on screen was [[MindScrew Helena Bonham Carter playing Emma Watson playing Helena Bonham Carter playing Hermione Granger playing Bellatrix Lestrange]].
* Harry sends Kreacher to find Mundungus Fletcher. The house elf does so, and returns — this time, with Dobby in tow. Dobby is hanging onto Mundungus's leg and he trips down a step; Kreacher, who was holding on to Mundungus's head, ''cartwheels through the air and lands on his feet'' and moves to shut the door, while Dobby ''throws pottery at Mundungus from the floor.'' One can't help but wonder just how many times Kreacher has been thrown through the air. One would assume ''a lot'', given that he was a house-elf to the family ''when Bellatrix was growing up.''

* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pIEc-63MA4Q Voldemort's hammishly callous laughter]] during his NearVillainVictory.
* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3ZW_dwd_WJY Voldemort hugging Malfoy,]] which is gaining memetic status, known as the "awkward Voldemort hug". It's even better when you learn it was ''totally unscripted''. When it was shown in theatres for the first time, it prompted a ''completely silent'' FlatWhat from most audiences.
* Voldemort's half-second of visible anger management before he says, "Well, Neville, I'm sure we'd all be fascinated to hear what you have to say."
* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z68sMmLtLcU Harry tries out the wand Ron gave him:]]
-->'''Harry:''' (points at a candle) ''Engorgio''. [[OhCrap (candle turns into a geyser of fire, Harry points wand at candle, in panic:)]] ''Reducio''! (candle goes back to normal)\\
'''Hermione:''' What's going on in there?!\\
'''Harry, Ron:''' [[BlatantLies Nothing]]!
* After casting ''Piertotum Locomotor'':
-->'''[=McGonagall=]:''' [[IAlwaysWantedToSayThat I've always wanted to use that spell!]] ''(giggles like a schoolgirl)''
** What makes this moment is the look Molly gives [=McGonagall=].

* Neville's reaction during the final battle when Scabior takes that first step across the supposedly impenetrable barrier.
* The kiss between Harry and Ginny in Part 1, which George observes as he dances into the room with a toothbrush in the hole where his ear used to be. When the two break the kiss and look at him, he gives a sly grin and says "Moooornin'." All while sipping his coffee.
** Even better, after Ginny leaves, George raises an eyebrow at Harry and gives him a [[BigBrotherInstinct look]] that's half-"Really? Now? Couldn't you have picked a better time?" and half-"Now listen here: break her heart and you ''definitely'' won't be the Boy Who Lived any longer".
* After getting blasted by Voldemort from the courtyard all the way back into the Great Hall, Neville comes to in the most serene and blissfully unaware way possible, while all hell's breaking loose around him.
* When the trio returns to Hogwarts, Harry and Ginny have a HeldGaze moment. Meanwhile Ron grins and waves in the background, then complains to Hermione about being ignored.
--> '''Ron:''' Six months she hasn't seen me and it's like I'm a Frankie-First Year. I'm only her brother.
--> '''Seamus:''' She's got lots of those, though. She's only got one Harry.
--> '''Ron:''' Shut up, Seamus.
** Even funnier when you notice that when Ron waves at Ginny, the shot is focused such that Ron is blurred in the background while Harry is crystal clear.
* Ron [[AttackAttackRetreatRetreat running after Goyle after he tried to AK Hermione, yelling "THAT'S MY GIRLFRIEND YOU NUMPTY!" A few minutes later, we hear him screaming, and the next thing we see is Ron running back while yelling "GOYLE SET THE BLOODY PLACE ON FIRE!!"]], grabbing Hermione and leaving Harry behind for good measure.
** Ron's OhCrap face as he was running seals the deal.

* There is a moment when Hermione is cutting Harry's hair just as she realizes how to destroy the Horcruxes.
--> '''Hermione:''' [[EurekaMoment Oh my god!]]\\
'''Harry:''' What? ''(starts freaking out and feels the back of his head)''
* The final payoff of the ''absolute best RunningGag ever'' with Seamus's "[[AddedAlliterativeAppeal particular proclivity for pyrotechnics]]", a RunningGag that began from a one-off line in the first book and the films ran with.
* As the final Battle of Hogwarts begins, the Malfoys, who betrayed Voldemort to bring back Harry, decide this is an opportune time to calmly but briskly get the heck out of Dodge.
* Harry snarking at Voldemort while fighting him:
--> '''Harry:''' Hey, you were right (gets slapped by Voldemort) when you told Professor Snape that wand was failing you. It will always fail you.

* There's something darkly amusing about one of the wanted posters for Harry seen in the film. (It was included as a prop with the book ''Harry Potter: A Pop-Up Book''.) It reads "Contact the Ministry of Magic immediately if you have any information concerning his whereabouts. Failure to report will result in imprisonment." In other words, the Ministry / Death Eaters are basically saying that if you so much as ''see'' Harry and don't say anything, they'll ''know'' and they'll find you and arrest you. Their magic may be powerful, but perhaps not ''that'' powerful.
* It's very BlackComedy, but after Bogrod gets roasted alive by the dragon, Ron looks on with dismayed surprise and can only manage to say, "[[{{Understatement}} That's unfortunate]]".
** Prior to this, Ron can be heard saying [[TemptingFate "At least we still have Bogrod."]]
** Later, as the dragon is climbing out of the depths of Gringotts and into the main bank building itself, most of the goblins flee from their desks except one goblin who stays put with the greatest look of "what the actual hell is happening right now?"

* The heavy MoodWhiplash after the confrontation with Snape. You have a dark moment where Voldemort coveys a message to the students that they must deliver Harry to him. After a tense moment where the students look at Harry (Pansy Parkinson even demands someone grab him!), Filch ''runs into the room screaming about how the students are out of bed'', all while [=McGonagall=] tells him off that ''they're supposed to be out of bed''. Filch's reaction is priceless.
-->'''[=McGonagall=]:''' They are ''supposed'' to be out of bed, you blithering idiot!\\
'''Filch:''' ...Oh. Sorry ma'am.
** Makes it more funny since [=McGonagall=] rarely ever insults anyone.
** In the background, Bill is clearly looking at Filch with a "I left Hogwarts ten years ago, and you still haven't changed a bit, have you?" look on his face.
* When the Trio are interrogating Mundungus about what he did with the locket, Kreacher starts getting into his face and poking him with his fingers.
* After Harry reveals himself to be alive and the Death Eaters attack, the great and mighty Lucius Malfoy looks around confused as his wife grabs his son by the hand and promptly leaves. He has no option but to trail uselessly behind, accompanied by something of a LosingHorns.
* One you have to ''really'' listen closely for. In Part 1, when the radio reads off a list of the dead, among them is a person named [[FanFic/MyImmortal Ebony Way]].

* There's also Hermione noting casually that she's waiting for Ron's pants (underwear for American readers) to come out of the wash and Ron's flustered reaction.

* There's also Hermione noting casually that she's waiting for Ron's pants to come out of the wash and Ron's flustered reaction.

** Which is funny on its own, but then you remember the {{UST}} they have going...

* Just before going in the elevator, Ron, in disguise, receives some disturbing news. Apparently his wife is in court. He's actually quite worried about it. Until he's reminded that...

* After Dumbledore tells Snape that [[spoiler:he wants Snape to kill him]], Snape responds, in full SarcasmMode, "Would you like me to do it now? Or would you like a few minutes to compose an epitaph?"
* [[spoiler:[[PunctuatedForEmphasis YOU! COMPLETE! ARSE!]] [[PunctuatedPounding RONALD! WEASLEY!]]]]

** And afterwards, [[spoiler:Ron's]] sycophantic attempts to "get back in her good books," as Harry put it.

[[spoiler:'''Ron:''']] "Yeah, that makes sense!"\\

** In the end, Harry says things went about as well as could be expected, and [[spoiler:Ron]] agrees, remembering an event from the previous book ([[spoiler:Hermione attacking him with blood-thirsty canaries]]). Hermione gets the last word.

** Even more HilariousInHindsight when you find out where Hermione ends up working in the epilogue — [[spoiler:as Deputy Head of the Department of Magical Law Enforcement]].
** And further ''still'': [[spoiler:she ends up Minister of Magic]].

* Percy saying he's resigning, [[DeadpanSnarker as he turns the Minister into a sea urchin]]. [[spoiler:Cue ''serious'' MoodWhiplash about three lines later.]]

* [[spoiler:Ron to his daughter, Rose: Thank God you've inherited your mother's brains.]]

** Later, the Trio ''immediately'' realises who Mundungus is talking about when he mentions [[spoiler:she "looked a bit like a toad"]].

* There's something darkly hilarious about [[spoiler:Fred's death and George's disfigurement]] when you remember that way back when in the first book, [[spoiler:he and George enchanted snowballs to bounce off the back of Quirrell's turban, AKA Voldemort's face]]. It seems Voldy got his revenge in the end.

* It's very BlackComedy, but after [[spoiler:Bogrod gets roasted alive by the dragon]], Ron looks on with dismayed surprise and can only manage to say, "[[{{Understatement}} That's unfortunate]]".

* The heavy MoodWhiplash after [[spoiler:the confrontation with Snape. You have a dark moment where Voldemort coveys a message to the students that they must deliver Harry to him. After a tense moment where the students look at Harry (Pansy Parkinson even demands someone grab him!), Filch ''runs into the room screaming about how the students are out of bed'', all while [=McGonagall=] tells him off that ''they're supposed to be out of bed''. Filch's reaction is priceless]].
-->[[spoiler:'''[=McGonagall=]:''' They are ''supposed'' to be out of bed, you blithering idiot!]]\\
[[spoiler:'''Filch:''' ...Oh. Sorry ma'am.]]
** Makes it more funny since [[spoiler:[=McGonagall=] rarely ever insults anyone]].

* After announcing Harry’s "death" to Hogwarts, Voldemort lets out a spiteful chuckle.
->'''Voldemort''': HARRY POTTER IS DEAD!
->*Death Eaters all laugh, with Lestrange’s laugh being the loudest*
->'''Voldemort''': Eh Heh Heh...

* One you have to ''really'' listen closely for. In Part 1, when the radio reads off a list of the dead, among them is a person named... [[FanFic/MyImmortal Ebony Way]].

** What really makes this moment is the "What the hey?" look Molly gives [=McGonagall=].

-->'''[=McGonagall=]:''' I've always wanted to use that spell! ''(giggles like a schoolgirl)''
** What really makes this moment is the "WTF?" look Molly gives [=McGonagall=].

** Ron exclaiming (in a CallBack to a joke made in ''Half-Blood Prince'' about Harry's chest), "I knew Ginny was lying about that tattoo," can only be topped by this moment after Bill offers to take Fleur on a thestral:

** "If you sneeze, the Ministry will know who wipes your nose." [[GettingCrapPastTheRadar You almost get the feeling he wanted to reference a different bodily function.]]

** Given the situation, it would be ''perfectly reasonable'' for her to just snap and start attacking people.
