The Big Picture
- Emma Thompson's character, Professor Trelawney, is criminally underused in the Harry Potter series, despite her significance to the plot and unique abilities.
- Trelawney's prophecies, including the one that made Harry the Chosen One, are key to the entire story, but her character is not given enough screen time to explore her importance.
- Thompson's enormous talent is wasted in the role of Trelawney, and it is a missed opportunity to fully explore the character's impact on the plot.
