Cuaron ruined the entire series. By letting the kids dress in regular clothes, he introduced product placement, making things less magical
Also, by using a real castle, he made things less magical
The singing frogs and shrunken head he added were lame
The guy is a hack director and should have been a cinematographer instead

By setting it in the most boring places possible?! what a fricking imbecile and obvious executive saboteur. Rowling's kids already came up with more interesting areas like the forbidden forest and the catacombs beneath Hogwarts.
Azkaban had a lot of decent Noir and Batman-tier ideas in it, but from how much I remember the Dementors only had a total of 3 scenes in it (4 if we count the time travel one). Sirius was a red herring that only appeared at the end when he clearly shouldn't had been. Part 3 was the beginning of the end with "let's cram all the good parts at the end". I genuinely don't remember much from Hp3 ... right 5 scenes with the dementors, I completely forgot about the quidditch match because you know why? they completely skipped it. Harry just runs into a storm of dementors and comes out falling from the sky. Absolutely no cool air fight, no dodging, no cool HowToTrainYourDragon tier 3D flight sequences like the first and second movie.
Then they shoved that bullshit with Ron's rat was a murderer all along to try to replicate HP1 and HP2's red herring which clearly did not work as well as the previous movies. Then in movie 5 Voldermort's followers downright emulate the dementors' powers which was also moronic.
Sirius should had just been a lieutenant like Quirrel another way for Voldermort to come back, this time with an army of grim reapers at his disposal. Much comfier, simpler, effective than that "a nothing burger" that happened, especially with the Marauder's map? what was the point of the map? I know they tried to replicate the invisibility cloak scenes in HP1 but they fricked that up too.
The dementors were extremely hard to do because most of it was practical effects, the other movies could afford to overuse them because they were CGI shit.
WHAT
THE
FRICK!??!
1) that's impressive
2) that's so fricking moronic from a budget and practical standpoint.
Seriously the one creature that is all effects was practical? the army of flying cloaked smoky 9 foot tall grim reapers was practical...
well time to watch the behind the scenes

Apparently they recorded the cloaks underwater and then inserted them into the scenes, the only digital parts were the hands and the mouths.
The scene in which Harry blows up Marge is also entirely practical with the exception of the ceiling, the actress had several different suits with different levels of inflaiton and they changed them between takes, then she was lifted with cables.
The Monster Book is another practical prop, I think it was animatronic.
This is the main reason PoA was the one film in the series that took two years to come out.

This is all Rowling and things are no different in the books.
In Prisoner of Azkaban kids from magical backgrounds keep wearing their wonky handmade clothes (Like Ron and Neville's horrendous knit sweaters or Draco and his tailored shirts), it's only kids from muggle backgrounds like Hermione and Harry who wear modern street clothes, which makes perfect sense given their cultural upbringing, it wasn't until Goblet of fire that everyone started wearing regular muggle clothing, tough in Ron's case you could argue it was because of Harry and Hermione's influence.
>Alfonso Cuarón
Never spics/jews/gypsies/mexicans. They're all talk and full stupidity. They're the biggest hypocrites you've ever seen, they make the irish look intelligent, they make the africans look sane because at least they don't promise bullshit and then go 180 degrees against it.
She peaked at the Yule Ball then it was straight downhill, that poor girl hit the wall at like 16, which is understandable considering she's a brit, but still.
The 5th movie/book was complete unsalvageable garbage. You have to remove the annoying communist character to save it which means rewriting everything. Who the frick keeps thinking these characters are interesting and good? The point of making them so annoying and hateable is to make them punching bags, but if you only punch them at the last minute then you wasted everything. They're suppose to be undermined, insulted, beaten to a pulp, spat on, treated like a buttmonkey throughout the movie without destroying your story and characters for them. The moment your story revolves around this annoying piece of shit as an obstacle is the moment you need to rewrite everything from the groundup. Frick Lizzie Devine, frick PollyMcShane, frick Elmyra, frick this entire archetype of annoying sociopathic c**ts. Whoever came up with this archetype and their "don't touch it" execution must had been a israelite. It's like a super bully character like Harr's step brother and Malfoy except executed without any of the "Just punch the fricking idiot in the mouth and be done with it"
To me the fifth book was the make-it-or-break-it point for the series, with Voldemort fully revived and instantly starting to round up the death eaters, it was the moment for the Malfoys to have much more protagonism and for Draco to begin to switch sides, but Rowling, being the inept writer she is, just kept the status quo to the bitter end.
In reality, Rowling's stupid choices can be felt from the first book, when she clearly designed Hermione to be a know-it-all Ravenclaw and Ron a supportive Hufflepuff, but then because she couldn't be bothered to think about reasons why they would hang out with Harry she just shoved them into the same house, having one hero from each house would have been far more effective at delivering the message of unity and equality than having every single important character be a Griffindor and just peppering the background with pointless characters from other houses.
>it was the moment for the Malfoys to have much more protagonism and for Draco to begin to switch sides
Rofl she actually thought... she actually thought the Malfoys were suppose to be viewed as antiheroes or even heroes? after the bullshit Malfoy's dad pulled in book 2 ? still fricking moronic that Harry didn't have him murdered on the spot once he found out.
Lucius is irredeemable, but Narcissa and Draco should have had a bigger role in the final fight, the lukewarm half-baked pseudo redemption they got what absolute fricking shit, either go all the way or just let them die villains.
Are you a communist? I was waiting the whole time for Umbridge to be revealed as one of Voldermort's lackeys or for Voldermort to come assault Hogwarts and to murder the b***h. Honestly the whole book would had been better if it was Voldermort imposing his ideals onto the wizarding world.
Umbridge, along with Fudge was, supposed to represent the obtrusive bureaucracy that doesn't have evil intentions but gets in the way of the problem being solved so they inadvertedly help it fester, to be perfectly honest I'm fine with how she was depicted in year 5, the problem came in year 7 when she was suddenly torturing half witches, I know she was just trying to secure her position in the new regime but it doesn't match her crazy cultish fanaticism of Fudge in year 5.
Well, so much things happen in the 5th book that it is very hard to put them all in 2 hours movie. But yes, the 5th movie was the weakest of the series.
The plot of them having to recreate everything they already did once they went back in time was so silly. What would happen if they did a single thing different from before, would their memory instantly change as well or would it be more of an 'alternate universe' type approach where they would then be in a slightly different timeline?
They weren't trying to recreate what happened, it's just that the single timeline that they lived through already had the changes they were going to apply applied to it. i.e. there never was a timeline where they didn't travel back in time, which is how they were able to save their own lives.
In the 3rd, right after lupin transforms they added a 'boxing bell' sound effect. It's like a wilhelm scream, once you are aware of it you notice it every time.
The director is an idiot. All he manages to do was good lighting so you can almost understand what's going on, but dear god he cannot do combat worth a shit.
>Everyone just sitting there like morons not using their wands, leaving a fricking dog(Sirius) to do the fighting for them.
Also Snape's parts if they were handled by the first director would had been handled more comedically and cliche. Something like...
the camera cuts to Snape with the giant fricking werewolf behind them then to the kids' reaction then back to Snape.
Snape starts berating them about not leaving the castle at night because it's dangerous and how they're in so much trouble and is ready to expel them.
Then here they can either do 2 actions
1) A) The werewolf beats the shit out of him B) runs him off C) Snape is efficient at battling the werewolf D) the werewolf punches him and knocks him unconscious
2) Snape talks about Lupin, berates Lupin and how he's a werewolf and he says "... he's right behind me isn't he?" or B) he doesn't know he's a werewolf but he still insults him together with Harry calling them both irresponsible morons and the werewolf takes it personally.
Would had been just as cliche and goofy as the troll scene and the spider scene.
The spider scene wasn't goofy, but it was cliche. That typical "Thanks for the chat, we'll be going now" "Oh where's the rush, won't you be staying for dinner?" Aragog was an butthole. Also wasn't Aragog suppose to be a female, why did they give her a male voice?
The Last Airbender was more mature by making Koh the facestealer not start a fight with the avatar, but still trying to steal his face in a passive way.
Apart from the kids growing up, I'd say: >Colombus >Williams >the characters wearing robes at Hogwarts >Hagrid's hut right by the forest
As good as Azkaban may be, I can't fully enjoy it when I see Harry and pals with muggle cloths, Hagrid's hut on a fricking slope and Lupin's werewolf form that looks like a hairless sick mongrel.
The movies were fine until the Yeates takeover, PoA is darker but it still has a lot of whimsy, just more Burtonesque than Columbus' straight brit children's fantasy, GoF was kinda seguing into the green-tint monotone but still had fun moments like the bathtub scene.
Jewlywood should unironically consult with child superfans of book series and give them producer credits so they can call them on their bullshit. Every decision should be run through a child.
This, it's incredible that a 100 year old industry has never gotten this yet they do focus group testing with a bunch of normies who know nothing about the original product, like with The Simpsons Movie, I once read that they actually changed the sign outside of Moe's to "Bar" because the test audiences didn't understand the joke with the church.
Well, they certainly are now that the Fantastic Beasts franchise is in the toilet because they keep breaking continuity with Harry Potter, something an actual fan would be capable of telling them.
1 > 2 > 3 > 4 > the rest
As for the EA video games 2 > 3 > 1 > 4 > the rest. I have no idea about the Lego ones neither the PlayStation ones I never played them.
All I remember is 2 was the meatiest, 1 was short and 3 was short as frick but full of fun gimmicks, but still didn't contain the quidditch matches, didn't contain enough dementor fights despite making a whole spell system around them and I hated the last exam missions, the last missions should had not been the last exams or at leas they should had been optional missions not because they're hard(they're easy as shit and the game designer finally remembers that I do pin-point accurate jumps) but because it's anti climatic as frick to have mundane challenge missions as the final level.
The first book with all the cool shit in it was written by Rowling's kids. So many non-moronic fanfics out there too and so many other wizard franchises Rowling could have inspired from, but nope lol let's do the fantastic beasts bullshit, let's do the Sherlock Holmes meets Harry Potter except with a horrid execution that feels nothing like the first 2 books and movies and is an insult even to the original Sherlock Holmes and Mycroft books including every children pet detective books.
I appreciate what the PC games did with the first 3 HP games by going full moron with the secret rooms, but in a good way. They took one tiny aspect of HP and went ham with it. Too bad more games didn't try to copy that. The PS games did not focus as much on secret rooms, not even the Lego games.
Dude you're a commie, accept it. Honestly a movie comparing German communism vs Soviet communism with Harry Potter thrown in the middle would had at least been entertaining instead of the garbage Soviet communism that was the 5th movie.
For me it was how the second one started you off with a shitty wacky CGI character scene then completely spoils you with the pure kino that was the flying car.
It was so satisfying when he died of a wound that should be trivial to heal for anyone with magic powers, but the main characters hate that hideous little goblin so much they just let him bleed to death before their eyes. Very bold of Rowling.
>broken metal? easily repaired by magic >fricked up your arm? alakazam, Black person. >celebrity student uses a makeshift spell to rend your flesh? we can deal with it >no bones? there's a potion for that >hell we clearly have a spell for when you have TOO MANY bones >hell have a time travel necklace too
>but no we couldn't do anything about a basic knife wound, not a thing
probably the only time the incosistency created a good result
Most of those were healed by madame pomfree or whatever, an actual healer. i guess it can be explained by her being really great at healing magic/potions and that the main three didn't know much about that. but then again she never stated that in the books so it's still shit writing
if saying 'reparo' can cause a complex action like knitting metal and glass back together, there isn't any reason against a similar spell for flesh. sectumsempra is just the opposite effect, really, and harry learned it from a book
They grew up
Cuaron ruined the entire series. By letting the kids dress in regular clothes, he introduced product placement, making things less magical

Also the goblin vault and diagon alley.
I think Prisoner of Azkaban still had tons of magic, in no small part thanks to John Williams' music. And Sirius Black is just kino.

This is all Rowling and things are no different in the books.
God, that nostalgia trip
This. It was a good movie but not a good Harry Potter movie. It ruined the series because the next directors tried to imitate
In Prisoner of Azkaban kids from magical backgrounds keep wearing their wonky handmade clothes (Like Ron and Neville's horrendous knit sweaters or Draco and his tailored shirts), it's only kids from muggle backgrounds like Hermione and Harry who wear modern street clothes, which makes perfect sense given their cultural upbringing, it wasn't until Goblet of fire that everyone started wearing regular muggle clothing, tough in Ron's case you could argue it was because of Harry and Hermione's influence.

woke agenda
Things got tense and serious. It was a good ride. Hermione is relentlessly cute.
She was in her prime in the 3rd and 4th movie, don't @ me
She was perfect in every film.
cope
You seem needlessly upset.
She was in her prime in the first movie you sicko
She peaked at the Yule Ball then it was straight downhill, that poor girl hit the wall at like 16, which is understandable considering she's a brit, but still.
They forget it was was about the joy of discovering a magical world.
Not about wearing jeans and sweatshirts in a grey kebab and turning your gat, I mean, wand sideways and popping off a few rounds on the opps.
Kids became teenagers
If you didn't notice the director changed, what is wrong with you?
Low stakes to high stakes.
they abandoned the 90s UK feel and warm colors for le epic grimdark moody angst thanks to that homosexual Alfonso "I hate cgi" Cuaron.
This. The tone changed from warm to edgy. I think the 3rd and 4th movies had remenants of that whimsy, but by the 5th movie it was totally gone.

Is it going too far if I call Prison of Azkaban the Alien 3 of Harry Potter?
Yes

Yes, I'm sure the producers of the very successful Harry Potter films were kicking themselves by not doing this

not even close to what?
To the second best, Goblet of Fire
STOP HOLDING THE FRICKING WANDS HORIZONTALLY, THEY'RE NOT GUNS.
Richard Harris died. New director took over.
Dumbledor's original actor also died too.
Are you being stupid on purpose?
Yes.
Dude you're a commie, accept it. Honestly a movie comparing German communism vs Soviet communism with Harry Potter thrown in the middle would had at least been entertaining instead of the garbage Soviet communism that was the 5th movie.
>Honestly a movie
Stopped reading. I clearly said the movie was the worst in the series. Book was the best. moron zoomer attention span troglodyte
Why is it communist?
>Richard Harris died.
this
and we miss him
>someone left a cake out in the raiiiin!!!!
The first 2 looked like real movies. The rest just added more color filters and made it le darker.
stopped being about hogwarts and started typical "Teenage romance xD"
Alfonso Cuarón was best director.
David Yates ruined HP.
The Half Blood Prince is my favorite aside from Prisoner of Azkhaban
For me it was how the second one started you off with a shitty wacky CGI character scene then completely spoils you with the pure kino that was the flying car.
God I fricking despise Dobby.
It was so satisfying when he died of a wound that should be trivial to heal for anyone with magic powers, but the main characters hate that hideous little goblin so much they just let him bleed to death before their eyes. Very bold of Rowling.
