  Fuck I forgot about that. Those movies kinda suck ass past the first two.

    Order of the Phoenix is brutal but I think Half Blood Prince from a cinematography perspective is the best in the series. Prisoner of Azkaban was also really well done.

      Oh yeah Prisoner was great.

      Going to have to disagree with you on HBP. I went through a huge Potterhead phase as a teen and I fell asleep during that movie every time I tried to watch it.

      At the time, the only other movie I had ever fallen asleep during while trying to watch was After Earth. So, admittedly, I kinda wrote the HBP movie off for that reason. But I’ve tried to go back and revisit it, and I just can’t keep my eyes open!

      Order of the Phoenix took the longest book and made the shortest film.

    Are you kidding? The first two films were shot in the most boring way possible, which is a bit odd considering the director Chris Columbus had previously made the two ‘Home Alones’ and ‘Mrs. Doubtfire’. I still regret that I didn’t know of VLC’s playback speed adjustment when I watched ‘HP’.

    Then they got proper good director Alfonso Cuarón, who shown how a fantasy film could actually look and feel. After which of course he wasn’t hired again, and instead in one more iteration they found David Yates, who churned out the remaining four films like it was a factory job for him.

      Nope, not kidding. Clearly we disagree. It seems Mr. Cuarón’s look for a good fantasy film was a washed-out blue.

      That said, I still think PoA is still the best non-Columbus movie - I just enjoy the coziness of the first two. It’s what Hogwarts felt like to me when reading the books, so I naturally like seeing that brought to screen.

        yea same, the first two are whimsical which is completely in line with the vibe of the books they’re based on. The third one is also very cool, and I think the rest are entirely forgettable

        I mean, the themes of ‘PoA’ are somewhat more mature, so the noirish look was warranted. And from what I remember, it wasn’t just a blue-and-orange palette, like in many modern films, but a pretty colorful one inside that noir feel.

        Cuarón also doesn’t do such palettes everywhere. ‘Y tu mamá también’ is very colorful, while the dystopian ‘Children of Men’ is accordingly subdued. So it was a choice appropriate to the events in the film, just like the installments later in the series also get darker.

  Wasn’t she possessed or something and that was the reason she ratted out Dumbledore’s Army?

    In the movie Dolores Umbridge had Snape administer truth serum to Cho.
