However Hagrid likes the flying bike and such so it's possible even if he could Apparate he simply doesn't want to. Composite however makes this murky as Hagrid then MUST have an ability to leave the station that nobody noticed. Ordinarily simple HP canon rules make that easy: books > movies > everything else when contradictions arise. In the novel the scene straight-up doesn't exist.

I pointed out the most likely reason is Hagrid isn't meant to be there to actually guide Harry onto the platform so the movie had to make him disappear so that Harry can meet the Weasley's. It doesn't mesh with the magical limits he's established to have. (To the point that Harry kept using it even after he got so tall that it stopped covering his ankles) Him disappearing from the platform is probably just an inconsistency at this point, or something Rowling added for rule-of-cool purposes. Invisibility seems just as unlikely though, given that Harry and his friends went their entire term and then some without learning any methods of invisibility outside of using the Invisibility Cloak. So even if Hagrid somehow taught Apparition to himself on his own (which he probably didn't, considering how difficult Apparition is to learn even with formal teaching), he wouldn't be able to do it so freely without getting arrested.

Moreover, you need an Apparition license in order to Apparate without getting hit by the Ministry of Magic, and you don't get one without taking that test. Students have to be 17 years of age in order to take the Apparition test, and by that point, Hagrid was already expelled from Hogwarts. If Shrek gets the child away from Hagrid and manages to make it back to his treehouse, this constitutes a win, as he will be able to summon Donkey and the Dragon from there.Ĭlick to shrink.I highly doubt that Hagrid is capable of Apparition. If Hagrid gets the baby through the portal, that constitutes a win, even is Shrek follows, as Hermione will be around to interpret and end the confrontation.

Victory is by death, rendering the opposition unconscious, or escaping with the child. Both are equipped only with their standard travelling clothes and equipment, and neither prepared for this conflict. Neither knows anything about their opponent as individuals, but Hagrid has basic knowledge of Ogres, and Shrek can recongize Hagrid as a Half-Giant and has some basic knowledge of the traits of such a hybrid. Hagrid came to this world alone, and the rest of Shrek's family and friends (and other magical swamp denizens) are all out Christmas caroling, so the two are more or less alone and unsupported. Both combatants are in character to the situation, but cannot communicate with each other. The child is secured in the backpack strapped to Hagrid's back. Shrek's treehouse is three miles away through the swamp. The portal back to his own world is five miles away through the swamp. In either case, Hagrid is quite convinced that this strange Ogre intends to eat the child, and he won't allow that. In a recent conversation with Hermione, Hagrid was given to understand that Ogres eat their own children, as well as those of their rivals. Ogre hunters have been wandering Shrek's swamp lately, as Ogre children can be ground up for magical ingredients, so he was already worried about his child and is now convinced this stranger will kill her if he is allowed to escape. Shrek has seen Hagrid popping his child into a back pack, and assumes she is being kidnapped.

That is when Shrek arrives.īeing from different universes, the two naturally speak different languages, and are unable to communicate. Well, being the thoughtful and protective fellow he is, he pops the child into his backpack to take it home and feed it. Hagrid has been wandering through magical portals to other worlds, looking for new pets, and has found himself inside a particular swamp.where he comes across a baby ogre, wandering lost in the swamp. Hagrid (Harry Potter, composite) VS Shrek (composite)
