This is a somewhat unusual request, but I need your help compiling a list of all the scenes with snakes in the Harry Potter series. You see, my wife wants to watch the series with me, but she's mortally frightened of snakes. Even the sight of one on the TV screen is enough to give her a panic attack, and from the few times I've seen some of these movies, I recall that snakes and snake-like motifs are featured prominently. My solution? Do a quick-and-dirty fanedit removing all the snake scenes. I did this with the Indiana Jones movies, and it worked out quite well (dramatic pacing was damaged at times, but it beats the alternative, which is not watching the movie at all).

One problem: as I mentioned, I've only seen the first five films (and only one or two viewings per film), and am thus not very familiar with the intricacies of each one. So if those of you who are more acquainted with these movies could help me complete the list of scenes with snakes (or snake-like creatures, apparitions, etc.), I would be most grateful.

The few scenes I do recall are:

 

Sorcerer's Stone

-Snake at the zoo who speak to Harry

 

Chamber of Secrets

-Snake that appears during the wand-duel

-Basilisk at the end (not sure how I'm gonna pull this one off)

 

Goblet of fire

-Snake is shown after Harry teleports toward end of film

 

Thanks!
