That's when I turned off the movie. They found the secret platform, got on the train, arrived at the school and then "It's time to go shopping, Harry!" I was like, uh where's he getting the money from. "Why, you go to The Bank, of course!"
I'm like, YOU HAVE TO WORK TO PUT THE FUCKING MONEY IN THERE MORON, BANKS AREN'T SOME QUEST LOCATION YOU VISIT AND THEY FILL UP YOUR BAG WITH CASH. But no, of course, it's his parents' money. Yes, because he is The Chosen One. Turned it off right there and never looked back to any Harry Potter media since. Never read a book, and 30 minutes in to the first movie.
A couple of books later he visits the bank with his best friends' family who have semi-adopted him and whose main defining trait is that they're always poor and struggling to make ends meet.
Harry watches as the mom visits the family's almost empty vault to scrounge up the few coins left in the corners, then they visit the Potter vault which he is the sole heir of and it looks like Scrooge McDuck's Money Bin
